I'm just trying something out here.

I suppose newbies to modding don't fully understand the mergeable *.big concept, or it's confusing, or something along those lines. So, I devised a new way to do textures. It's all done within FE, and this way it doesn't overwrite your textures (unless mergeable texture.bigs just put the modified textures in there, idk).

This way adds nex texture entries, and they work! It links the new textures to the existing graphics.big entries and my particular appearancemodifier (optional) adds the unused bowerstone bandage glove, which just adds a bandage to the right arm above the glove...take a look.



I know the bandage is a lot brighter. The boots are my classic boots because I didn't change the existing ones' texture.

As of now, it pops-up with an ActiveX Runtime Error (or something), if this happens, click Okay and Save Changes And Run Fable again.

(For now I'll just stick with *.bigs. Easier to do)

New textures or not, doesn't matter - the error of a bad texture could still occur. It has to do with FE handling certain texture formats. Best format to use would be dds since it's native to Fable. Any other format could give errors, either in .bigs or .fmps.

Correct me if I'm wrong, anyone.

The retexture is nice btw.

I'd just assumed the chance would be less.

OldBoy: Regardless of the original format, once it's in FE, it's dds. Wink
Ravrn: I believe that having even just a single entry from a different archive, edited or not, should suffice in preventing texture corruption.

I know. But I believe that's the point; the conversion is the problem.
When FE doesn't have to convert the texture... And then it depends what format it has to convert.
