Sprite Mod Help?

[Longstrides357]

Hello everyone. I am very interested in delving further into the modding capabilities of this game.

I would like to start with very simple sprite replacement for vanilla items in the game.

 

Can someone give me a brief walkthrough of this process please?

Do you mean like a texture pack or do you also want to modify the items properties?

Or do you mean the 3D models?

If all you want is to replace a default sprite with a new one, check out one of my sprite recolor mods.

All they do is change the sprite of Base items, they should serve as a relatively good template.

Well I have a custom made sprite for the pistol. I want to make the icon look more like the Beretta 92fs. I just want to know where the directory for the icon is. Also Svarog^ I checked out your mod. I might use it on a later playthrough.

Game Textures are located in media\textures within .pack files, you need something like PZ Unpacker but if you want to replace something then making a simple mod is really the easiest way to go about it.

For now only models are made in such way that actually replacing a game file is necessary.

So if I unpack this texture and replace the icon, do I have to put that in a mod folder? I thought I heard that somewhere.
