I did this before a couple years ago but lost all and forgot exactly how I did it. I want to replace the leather biker jacket in the dlc greaser file.
I have RIcks tools but the decompreser and decrypter never worked for me but I have done it with just the ExploreSDS tool. I can open the sds file and find the texture and save that texture to the desktop, then I use DXTBMP to open it and send it to my paint shop pro program. I can change it orÃâàpaint it or add names an such and then save and reopen the saved file back in DXTBMP. I then save that file as it was, DDS1. I can then put it back into the ExploreSDS tool and save archive to the original file. Nothing changes even though I can open the original texture file and it shows all changes. Am I saving in the wrong format? I tried DDS5 and it saved but the texture was scrambled in the game.
