Tomb Raider Legend Modding, Costumes & Texturing - Part I

TKone · 09-04-06, 14:05

Look what I found in bigfile.004 with the Tomb Ripper!

I replaced the original files (3723. 3724, 3825, 3826 in bigfile.004 and 2 others in bigfile.002) with that one and I can say It looks very sexy

.
The only problem is that this only works with next gen enabled. When I deactivate the Next Gen mode you can`t see this texture.

Can someone help?? (maybe HEVON).
I want to see this texture in normal mode, too. Or are there others which I forgot to replace?

Next Gen Mode:

EDIT: Found another alternative skin for the black dress (with a golden dragon) and the standard Legend outfit. It is very simple. Just replace all DDS files of the standard Legend outfit (normal, british flag, pink, black or blue; depends on which outfit you want to replace) or the dress which looks similar to the alternative ones. But this time it is NORMAL MODE ONLY. In next Gen, the Textures don't work.

UPDATE: Some new sexy Dress Recolors and Skins are available now (with readme file). Only Normal Mode Textures now. Feel free to edit, comment or request! Most of the screens of the recolors are in the Thread (see Page 11 & 20 and some more)

UPDATE: TLR Online is providing some Webspace for us to upload the coming Mods and Textures for you all. First I wanna say Thanks to TLR for supporting us.

UPDATE (02/05): New Download Site available!!!!!!
Elen spent some time to create a new Skinning site with Downloads and Tutorials. Now you can see screenshots of the Outfits you want to download.
Thx to Elen for putting a lot of work in this site!

YOU GET ALL THE FILES HERE: http://www.tombraiderhub.com/tr7/modding/index.html

If you want to share your work, please post some screens in this Thread and send your files to Elen. You find her E-Mail on the Site. Take a look at "Submit your Outfit". It would be nice of you to include a small readme and some Ingame Screens (Front and Back) in each package. Its enough to write down the texture numbers which have to be replaced with your changed ones. Thx
No Topless & Full Nude Skins allowed!!

NEW UPDATE (30/05): I made a little clothing Patch for those who can´t work with the ripper or those who are too lazy to replace the files. It includes the outfits I have installed on my system. (made by Tansy, Yak, Cyberfish and me). You get the Patch and the screenshot of the outfits here: http://www.tombraiderforums.com/show...postcount=1669

That's a possibility. But I didn't find any other textures that looks the same or I just didn't see them.

Can you please tell me which files I must change. I would really appreciate it. Thx for the fast reply Hevon

Hevon · 09-04-06, 14:14

the next gen texture are different than the normal texture ^^ not the same size and place. i try to make a list of the texture with the number.
ex:
Laralongblackdress:
1473.dds
1475.dds
1476.dds

They are a lot of file ~_~

TKone · 09-04-06, 14:22

Oh this seems to be really complicated. A lot of work to do. Do you think it is possible to get it to work in normal mode? I still have problems to replace the original files with changed ones, because the ripper always tells me that the file is too large

tlr online · 09-04-06, 14:24
