How to Edit Textures in EBM ENC

Hi ! to all Ragezoner's


in this Toturial i wanna show you how to Change the texture's
of the Orihalcon

so lets Start,
but First back-up you're Original man11.ech
then after the back-up has made open the man11.ech with 010Editor SweetScape.

Run the EbmTemplate First then --> Find "StructMT MaterialsAndTextures" --> "Struct MAT material[26] witch is the Orihalcon" --> "Struct TEX texture" -- > "ubyte texture_data[4194432]" <------ TAKE NOTE This is the original size of Orihalcon after that goto -- > FILE -->Special --> Save Selection : Sample Name : man11.dds <-- Save it then open it with you're Favorite Editor Like PS or PAINT.NET

When you're Done Editing in PS Like the one Im using just Save it--> The NVIDIA PLUGIN COMES OUT --> Here's the Confusing one Dont Just save it because you might loss the Alpha Color of the Texture ......,Click the List of the Combobox of NViDiA Plug-in then Find the 8.8.8.8 ARGB 32 bpp | unsigned...... Dont touch the 2d texture if you dont know how to use it .. then after that save it .... Close the PS then go back to 010 Editor Open the Script of Sir Yamachi --> "ReplaceTexture.ebm_ebs_ech_eps.1sc" <--- Thank's to this Script cause we make it Easier to EDIT :-) after that Open the Template the "EBMTemplate.bt" Dont Run it Just Open it
Attachment 90504
run the Script then Another Form Comes out
it will ask you to input "Material Index" the "Material index = Struct MAT Material[26]" is the index of Orihalcon so you must input 26 then HIT Ok Button Find the ---> Click Open then It Packed in youre
Man11.dds .. Again run the EMBTemplate.bt to save it And Save the File And Youre Done!...
Run youre CABAL AND SEE IF ITS WORKING!

Dont Ask about how to Edit the Image in
PhotopShop Because Im not good in PS editing Also hehehe Blame me with my SS....
so Just google how to Edit the dds files and there's alot of Video toturials there....

And Also if you want to share what you have Already Learn here in RZ just share it :P .....

I don't think this really needed a tutorial.. The scripts and template made it all very simple and it's quite obvious how to use them. Your tutorial is also quite confusing and could be explained much better. Thanks, anyways.

Blame me for posting this guide ...
im not really good in explaining :-)

i Think its really nice guide ... and Really HelpFull for some Nubs :) it will save some questions ;) ! Really Thnx TanGzkie !!! You Got a Like From Me ;)

I just http://forum.ragezone.com/f458/ebm-b...ml#post3944150 <--- follow this Guide of Sir Yama Back in Old days... Cause There is no Script on that tym and its hard for nubs to HEX :-)

EDITED : by the way you can do more and you can also Edit the Glow of the weapons :-)
just follow the guide and must have some skills in Photoshop... :-)

That post was from before I fully understood the format of EBM's and realised there was a size value :P

it works but totally change the whole visual hehe.

Is it possible to create a new item and add your modified textures? I spent hours looking at the ech files and I have no idea how the textures are being called from the item.enc, or is it by cabal.enc? I'm trying to create a new football costume, not to overwrite the original.

Hi Yamachi, Sorry I'm a bit slow at this :D I still can't seem to find the right codes. I looked at winter fever epaulet on item.enc, found display_code_pt1 is 3 and display_code_pt2 is 41. Then I opened man9.ech and found coat_u9.dds matches the texture of winter fever epaulet. Shouldn't the code be coat_341.dds? Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. Thank you sir.

Here's a screenshot of files I'm checking.
