Pfiffy Posted September 10, 2021 Posted September 10, 2021 I'm working on a clothing replacer and stumbled over the Briarheart. I want to male it playable. But to create a good looking male body, I need to put the texture of the wound on the SOS male Body texture. But I can't open it in Gimp. Any volunteers?

I will check if I can open it and convert to something usable (like a PNG) for you to do the changes. Then I can try to re-assemble it.
Pfiffy Posted September 11, 2021 Author Posted September 11, 2021 I just have the vanilla texture of the male Briarheart and I need to cut out the the wound place it on the SOS male body texture. As alternative there are the Wounds in the woundsarivanya_1.nif. This might be easier to to cut out and put it in the right place on the SOS body texture. It makes me wonder how the texture works in-game if you can't open it.... malebodybriarheart.dds wounds.dds malebody_1.dds

You can find it here https://code.google.com/archive/p/gimp-dds/downloads If instead you can not extract ONLY the scars, I leave you some screens made with photoshop Open the image of scars, select channels as shown in the image (under spoiler) Spoiler By clicking on the Alpha channel, press CTRL on the channel thumbnail you will get a selection At this point reactivate RGB Select Layers and CTRL+J to extract scars. At this point, turn off the background layer which becomes useless and you can move the scars to the malebodybriarheart texture

The results might not be as good as a professional would make them, but I'm ok with the results. But from time to time I stumble over a texture that I can't open.

I'll leave you the one I have of malebody_1, see if you can with this one malebody_1.dds I have left you some screens above, they might be useful in the future.

This is the malebody_1.dds, that came with Better males SE or SOS SE. If you have a black texture, Photoshop has the same problem as GIMP: It can't open the file correctly. I think the creators wanted to protect their work.... Cutting the wound out of the source is not my problem now. I will care about that, when I can open the target. I thought that it would be easier to edit the texture than to edit the nif. (I had to do that for the female body and it was hell of a work to make it work) Well, paint.net worked. It is tempered Skins.... Ok... This time Paint.net installled correctly AND it could open the file.... let's see how the result looks like.... There seems to be a bit more work in the nif, but this is good for a start.
Pfiffy Posted September 11, 2021 Author Posted September 11, 2021 How can I mark this as solved? Just for the moment I don't have any further problems...
