Help appreciated with textures and crashing [message #36526]

Hello, I've looked at these forums for a while and have learned a lot on how to mod Fable. I've tried to solve most of my problems myself, but I've tried a lot of things, and can't get this to work.

The problem is I'm trying to retexture a sword, more specifically the Obisdian Katana. I make the retexture using GIMP whilst keeping the .tga file as one layer. All I did was retexture it to become more used to adding textures and stuff. I added the texture using Fable Explorer keeping the Alpha to 0 and DXT1. Everything works fine, I can see the texture in Fable Explorer, but when I try to see it in game, it crashes as soon as I try to enter the place where I put it.

Sorry for the novice type question!

hmm... I just had this problem yesterday with something else.

Try making it DXT3 and alpha 1, even though there's no alpha

"All of the work, and none of the play, will surely provide for a speedy decay"

Hm. I think this may be a problem further than one texture. I was trying to add weapons from the Giant Weapon Pack, but it crashed exactly like the sword. Maybe I'm missing something here.

Sorry!
