Re: Texture Creation

ok , you open thosse textures in photoshop (cs2) then download the DDs plugin , when u are done drawing coluring them snap them all to 1 layer ( ctrl +alt+e) thats the file type that bf2 uses then save and overwrite them as dds files you should have made your own mod and put the textures there or you will edit your standard bf2 skins ( bf2 wont work and you have to re-install) so make you own mod using editor first then copy/paste /extract the soldiers folder into your mod and skin away

??? if you mean in PS for texture making then no, you don't.

Any filetype you save as for textures will merge everything to one layer anyway (if i have totally missed what you are on about i apologize)



- yes, Photoshop is the program used for 99% of all texture creation. If i could spend one hour less on PS each day i would be alot less of an intense person!!! :laugh:
