Hello, i'm Ace, hopefully my stay here will be a good experience Razz

Now, onto business: I really hate joining forums to post questions, but I should really join since I come here alot anyway. Now, i've just about read up and watched everything relating to creating weapons for Fable, and I followed a video tutorial someone made where you export a sword from FE, import to 3ds max, resize your own sword you made in blender, delete template mesh, attach aug's, blah blah, export with Panda Xporter, load up in FE, change info in FE and create a fmp, aaannddd then you run Fable and your "Awesome Sword" or whatever is in the game, working 100%. The furthest i've got is either an invisible sword ingame, or a sword that my guy holds sideways/retardedly :S I follow the video 99% [I create my sword in 3ds max first, not in blender as shown in the video] and it's still no use. I dunno what i'm doing wrong. Oh, and Fable crashes most times when I load my save/walk into the area where I placed the weapon [using chocolate box.

Pl0x Help!

Kinda sucks not being able to create cutom weapons and only change the damage of already made ones.

open your mesh in FE

click materials

click the text in the box on the left

put a texture id in the Main Texture Id box

I've done all that [As explained in the video tute], and my model shows up in FE all good, and I create the mod, load it up, save & run fable, quit, then my sword is there all set in FE, but when I run Fable normally and go to the area where I spawned my sword, it causes the game to crash back to my desktop. Sad

Edit: Also, is there a way to remove object/texture/game.bin entries from FE, like, to get rid of all my attempted items from the lists?

if you get CBox, you can do that

make sure the image is set to the right dds format

it needs to be DXT3 if there is alpha in the texture (if you used paint, that's a no, if you used something else that's most likely a yes)

if you got rid of the alpha though (or didn't make an alpha channel) then it needs to be DXT1

And if it -is- on DXT1 make sure you set the alpha to 0 in FE's textures.big for the texture in question.
