Reskinning

[leeferr]

The file size in kb is not the issue. It's the physical dimensions of the image that is the issue. In reskinning, the new texture must be the same dimensions as the original.

Oh... so if I change the numbers, I have to know what size font he was using to put numbers in?? I'm kinda lost now.

I'd ignore this bit, it's wrong.

It's only partially wrong. I'm only trying to keep him from getting confused by some of the finer points. I suppose my point is that if the original is 128 x 256, then the revised one shouldn't be 128 x 128. I suppose there are instances for tiled images where it could, but I wouldn't start him down that road at the beginning of his journey. By his description of what he's doing in changing numbers, I'm assuming that it isn't a tiled image and changing the image size could cause some real mapping difficulties.

We're not talking about font sizes.

Oh ok. I know that the guy that turned Franks es44 H2 to the H3 ummm... he typed it it using gimp or photoshop. It not a arn. I figured I try out reskinning with this model cuz there is just simple changes made from the ac to the dc model #7695. I'm really enjoying this little project but making short head way :hehe:
