Finding the texture files involves unpacking the PKs and finding + converting the relevent files in order to edit them. Please don't ask how. I'm not the author of these applications and as far as I know they are private unless (or untill) he states otherwise.

This began as a public project but it was soon removed as people only wanted to use it to make better bot programs. I was the only person interested in his work for purely artistic reasons. So, we began corresponding privately, and he is supporting my efforts with his apps.

I don't see why he wouldn't make the texture importer publically available when it is complete, so people can use edited skins.

But the exporter, I'm not so sure about. I'll ask at some point.

that red skin looks AWESOME, I'd love to have that one. I'm pretty sure this only shows to your game, and it will change all other items of the same skin file to look the same. I mean that as, other people won't be seeing a red wolf when I run by.

Is all this correct?

It very well could be, Halo Skinning was certainly much more pushed and supported by Bungie then Silkroad Skinning is by Joymax. I used to skin for Halo PC also

Yes. The game uses (in general, but not always) one texture per object in the game. Everyone you see running around wearing 5th degree armor is being textured by your game client and the files it has available within your PKs. So editing that one texture will change your own view of everybody using that particular armor degree.

Or to put it another way: Their PK files show them their textures. Your PK files show you your textures.

I'm hopefully aquiring the Importer on the 8th of this month. At that time I'll be able to show some ingame screenshots of custom textures.

Please be patient regarding the ability to do this yourselves, I know it's kinda unfair me posting about it but... I couldn't keep a secret like this. xD So you'll have to bear with me for now.

If there's any more requests, feel free to ask.

Well the gay way before Pakscape came out for JA, was to make it a .zip and change the file format. (by changing .zip to .whatever)

Thats not what I meant, I mean, the thief suit mesh is one which covers the entire body, so if you'd change the thief suit mesh(w/e dunno what its called render?) and delete the hunter render, and save the changed thief suit render with the exact same name, wouldn't that work?
Don't think it'll stick a thief suit to someone's back then....

Moogie · Post by **Moogie** » Thu Aug 03, 2006 6:14 pm

It depends on what the game instructs the client to display when a hunter flag item is equipped on the player.

If it asks it to stick the mesh onto a socket in the back of the character model, that's what it will do.

In that case, you'd need a programmer to hack the code. Of which I am not. :3

So, this means.. granted we find the PK file for it..
We can find out the glows of even higher +ed weapons? say +11, +13, +15 and so on?

Wow i didn't even know you could access texture files easily through the PK files. I've only managed to extract music, but nothing else. Hopefully I'll figure out how to find the theif texture, for a little "project" of mine (it doesn't involve the SRO client

).

BTW Moogie, all of this looks awesome so far, maybe they'll be a gold wolf too?

Arabian · Post by **Arabian** » Fri Aug 04, 2006 7:43 am

The moment you've all been waiting for.

After numerous hours of searching Google, I findly found a program that extracts the PK2 files into .DDS's. To edit the .DDS files you will have to have Adobe Photoshop with the .DDS pugin.

I finally found a program that rips all thew goodies out of the PK2 files.

You guys may think this is a KeyLogger or some other shit to hack your account. When I first found it I wasn't sure what it was. I took the risk and it came out perfect.

If you guys are too scared to open it, thats fine, you'll just never get the chance to mod the files anyway.

Moogie · Post by **Moogie** » Fri Aug 04, 2006 8:04 am

Looks pretty cool, I'm trying it out now.

Freakin' slow though... why does it have to scan files? Can't it just open them like the one I have does? O.o

Edits: Heh, well good luck using that. I gave up trying to open data.pk with it once I realised it would take five hours.

Arabian · Post by **Arabian** » Fri Aug 04, 2006 8:41 am

Well mine takes about 30 Mins.

I have no clue why it has to scan.

atleast it works

Moogie · Post by **Moogie** » Fri Aug 04, 2006 9:05 am

Does it import the textures back in aswell?

What is a skin??

skin generally means .... the thing that covers an object. Example 1 the human skin it covers our musles/bones and all the gooy stuff inside. Example 2 the skin (aka theme) you chose for Window or other application, basically it's look and feel. Example 3 the skin of a 3D model. The skin of a 3d model is kinda the same as a human skin, It is wrapped around a wire frame to make that adorable wolf. have you played with origami?? at first it's just a flat piece of paper looking like nothing but if u fold it just right it becomes something XD

PS. MOOGIE join kodomo XD
