Ok I'm creating Yardie (Yep the Jamican gang from GTA3) skins and I wanted to replace the rent-a-cop gang with these. I didn't edit the security guard skin because the model was hard to work with so I changed the model to hna.dff. I made the skin by using the hna.txd as a guide and peices from the yardie skin in gta3. Now I went to go look on how it went into the game and it looks like this...

Now the model replaced the security guard dff which I wanted, but the skin didn't make it on it which I have no idea why. I didn't look like that when I put the skin in.

So I was hopeing if one of you could tell me what I did wrong because I don't know, all I know is it has something to do with the texture but it didn't do the pinky thing when I put it in with ViceTXD, it looked fine, just not in the game. Its not the final version of the skin I just messed around to see how it would look like in the game.

The hna.dff model is not assigned to the security guard's texture (even though you had modified it). Use hna.txd, import your own custom skin into it, and rename to gda.txd. That should work.

You have to import the Yardie's skin into hna.txd first, then rename the file to gda.txd.

use the txd builder.It works fine and makes .txd's for u

I just downloaded it, it won't let me select my bmp

make sure its on all supported files or 8bit or 24bitmaps in the file type box.then go to the folder where it is and select it

hmm trying go to file and reset txd.Then try to add it again.If it dont work i dont know wat to tell u, sorry

There's no need to build a new .txd for this, just modify an existing one.

oh ok, sorry if this sounds dumb but how do i make it a txd?

should i import the bmp into vice.txd replacing the gda.txd, then use imgtool and rename it?

BLUE ZIRCON IS GOD!

I tryed it again and it worked, I think it looks pretty good but I need to fix some of it...

here it is:


heres the final version. I lengthen the pants, made it a no-sleeve shirt and added the rastafarian bandana around his head
