How do you change weapon color or textures? I am a modder I only need a step/push in the right direction.
Whenever I change a texture it stays the same. Am I missing a txt file or xml file I have to edit somewhere too?
Modder question textures Weapon, Ship, Background.

Be aware to respect the resolution or you might get weird outcomes.

I made my own bright green plasma bolt but you guys switched the png file on me to ion so no matter what I changed it to it wouldn't change to green.Dilloh wrote:So you only changed the png file. Did you create a bolt file on your own, or did you use the stock PR plasma.png?
Also, did you try buying a new gun after you did your changes? Sometimes, your savegame stores informations about your old settings, even if you changed basic stats.
But that was the only problem so far I had modding.
