IceCat

[cacysunlee]

a simple retexture of cat.



1. download here : http://www.runicgamesfansite.com/torchlightmods/node/33
2. open Pak.zip from the folder you have installed torchlight.
3. go to folder "media\models\Cat\" and replace the cat_pet.dds with the one from the zip file.

have fun

here is the tutorial how i create this : viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2824

Thats cool. (zing!)

[Sudiin]

I will certainly try this when I get home, it would be great to have the visibility of my kitty improved, he gets lost amidst the masses of mobs sometimes and the next thing i hear "your pet is fleeing"

Those pink parts seem a bit odd, and the texture a bit low quality but im guessing itll look better in-game than in screenshots.

Nice. in witch dds settings did you save it in?

[cacysunlee]

i don't know the default dds settings of gimp plugin, but i can show you the way how i do it : viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2824&p=31458#p31458

I fixed the whole problem on TorchlightInsider.com and added the file to the mod post. Great mod, I was just talking to Jason Beck about it, definitely top quality!

Great job Cacy!

I tried putting it in the mods folder (I don't want to mess with the original files) but it didn't work . None of my texture mods will work in the mods folder either and I'm sure I got the path names right....

...runic games/torchlight/mods/IceCat/media/models/Cat/cat_pet.dss

Ah well, let's hope the Editor will fix this issue.

Yeah, I couldn't make it work either, even though that is supposed to be the correct way to load mods. Replacing files within the Pak.zip is too... permanent.

Yes, i know about this problem, i hope next Patch will fix this.

Ah... I was going nuts trying to figure out why my dog re-skins weren't working... I got my Blue Gobbler to work as a mod, wondering why the dog can't be changed the same way?

Simple, but cool =]

'cause there is a bug, and i think the devs know about the bug.
the only way you can do this with the dog is, is the way i wrote in my first post.

I actually just got this to work as a mod without touching the pak.zip. Anyone interested (in betatesting)?

Came up with the solution while studying files to mod the dog into medea. Betatestet it myself a bit, no bugs found so far.

awesome ! it works very well.
thank you very much to show us your solution, now i know how to get other stuff in the mod folder without to touch the Pak.zip file.
great job Scavenger.

[Scavenger]

You're welcome.

I used png-files for my other pet-overwrites, so dds files aren't a must. Just to clarify this. Adding recolored textures to armors is quite easy, adding it to helmets really bugs me, because I can't get this to work.

Looking forward to the mods you're going to create via this method.

[nunix]

So.. I can just use something like IrfanView to resave the .dds file to .png, then edit that .DAT file so that instead of:

<STRING>TEXTURE_OVERRIDE:media/models/cat/icecat_pet.dds

it says

<STRING>TEXTURE_OVERRIDE:media/models/cat/MYPET.png

..correct?
