i need help to modify unity .bundle files

[absent0]

Hello everyone
My question is about unity .bundle files to modify textures.
the story is, they recently gave away the game “dredge” in epic, and after playing it a little, I was horrified by how really ugly they have made all the characters in the game (without exception, since I have managed to extract the textures and see them all), and I thought “I'm going to change all the characters for anime girls made in stable diffusion”.
and since until now I had not had problems in modifying textures of a unity game, in this case yes, since the character files are in separate .bundle files. 
I was looking how to do it and in theory the UABEA tool should work, however it is not so, every time I extract and modify the file, I encounter the following problem, and is that the texture does not come out in the game...
I show screenshot :

 

my steps have been the following:
load the bundle file in UABEA, open it in memory, press “info” button to open it, extract the texture as .png (since it uses transparency), save the png (with alpha channel for transparency).
re-edit the texture with the new one inside UABEA, save the bundle file, and compress it.
when editing the texture in UABEA i have left the default options, i have even tried to change some of them to try several combinations and nothing, always the same result. i have even tried to save it in other texture formats that UABEA allows me, but always the same problem, the texture does not come out in the game...
i have tried to compress the .bundle, to not compress it... i have tried a thousand ways without result, and if i put back the original backup file if the original character of the game is there again... so I don't know what to do, am I doing something wrong? can someone who understands help me? thank you very much.

 

sorry in advance if there is something wrongly explained, English is not my language and I translate everything in deepl.

thanks but my antivirus detects and removes it as virus.... so it does not work for me, any other alternative?
also i see that they don't update since 2023, even if it works i don't think it works for modern versions of unity.
