Major FE problems...

Re: Major FE problems...

For the retexturing problem, are you making sure that you reset the alpha to zero if it was zero to begin with?, and changing the DXT to 3 and leaving the alpha at 1 if it was set to 1 already? Those things are important.

Re: Major FE problems...

Son of a....Alright, it has to be the way I'm editing these images or SOMETHING.

I mean....I'm opening them in photoshop CS4, just recolouring them, saving them, then loading them in FE...

Is there...a certain way you have to edit them? I mean...I'm saving them as bitmaps too...I even changed the names to match what they were supposed to be this last time...and it still gave me the runtime error.

I don't know if filetype makes a difference, but I always import .bmps and they always work. Make sure to set Alpha to 0, too.

Ummmm I just found out I get a runtime error too......
And that wasn't for re-texturing. I was adding augments to 2 of my weapons.

Then I think you're doing it wrong.

Yup, I'm setting the alpha where it needs to be.

Lets see...the whole thing was....

1. Saved all the apprentice gear to my desktop.
2. Opened them in photoshop CS4, did my recoloring, saved them.
3. Opened them where they're supposed to go in FE.
4. Reset the alpha to where it was originally.
5. Save mods and run fable.


Now see...It runs perfectly fine up until the loading screen, now it gets almost done, then it goes "ding" and I get the runtime error.

It ran fine, no errors, no nothing, when I didn't play with FE...but ever since I started iwth FE, it does this....

Freeroam app is fine too...

Did you use anything transparent in the mesh? If so, turn Alpha to 1.

Also, you didn't answer me. What filetype is it?

I do it exactly as the guide tells me to...

Oh, I'm sorry.

And I don't believe I did, I just recolored the apprentice robe. Did that by selecting the polygonal lasso, highlighted, then changed the hue. did that for all of it.

Uhm..you mean the file type it saved as? bitmap. ".bmp"

Uhm...is that what were supposed to save it as? Or are we supposed to save it as something else? Cuz I didn't chose the file type, it just saved as is.

I believe it's not FE that sucks on Vista, but it's the fact that Vista sucks *PERIOD*.:ninja: I run on XP and I mod like a MADMAN BUAHAHAHAHA.:ninja:

 

[XxAkutabi_MikamixX]

Re: Major FE problems...

Ok, I'm glad you can mod.

I wish I was able to.

Re: Major FE problems...

My Solution = Get your laptop "downgraded" to XP. My friend did that and not only was he able to mod, but he could play all his games to maximum potential and has a more user-friendly system going.:ninja:

Re: Major FE problems...

I like vista, to an extent.

I would go down to XP but it just feels empty after playing with Vista...

Plus I dont' have any XP disks.

Yes, I save as .bmp.

I don't get it then. I really don't. I don't see a reason why you guys would get a runtime error.

Re: Major FE problems...

Well....

Which version of FE are you running?

 

[Noctus]

Re: Major FE problems...

ShadowNet.

 

[XxAkutabi_MikamixX]

Re: Major FE problems...

well I am running, and I think anotherspartan aswell, are running the new FE. 4.1 I believe.

 

[Noctus]

Re: Major FE problems...

I have that one too. Both work fine.

Re: Major FE problems...

I use vista. It works for me. Just Run as Admin. And i'm pretty sure you just have to change the texture to DXT1 and Alpha 0. I tried making a black bandit hood and I forgot to set it to DXT3 and alpha 1 and so everytime i tried to us the bandit cap, it messed up.

Yes I am. There has got to be SOME explanation!

Re: Major FE problems...

Did you make sure it was DXT1 when you imported? And changed Alpha to 0?
