Yea but i just want the texture not the whole skybox

Extract textures using the WOTGreal Exporter.

how do i use it

Posted: **Fri Jun 13, 08 9:16 pm**

Rename the map extension from .dx to .u, then point WOTGreal Exporter to the place where the map lies, select the map file, switch to the textures mode, tick the texture, hit "export to pcx".

srry for double post. I done everything but when i try to load the sky texture in the sdk it just puts me on (All texture) section

You need to convert the texture into the 8 bit format. If you don't know how, tell me which image editors / viewers have you got.

The only image editor i got is the adobe photoshop

Posted: **Fri Jun 13, 08 10:20 pm**

Open the image, in "Image" menu, select "Mode". Make sure "8 bit/Channel" is ticked, then select "Indexed colors". Use these settings:
Palette: local (adaptive), colors: 256, forced: none, transparency unticked, dither: none.

Then "File" > "Save as" > .pcx.

What kind of file are you trying to load?
A PCX file, or UTX?

i tryed pcx (didnt work)
i tryed utx (didnt work)

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 9:56 am**

Utx won't load in Photoshop, Pcx should. Try exporting it using WOTGreal to the .bmp format. Maybe you won't even need to convert it.

Ok that part worked but how do i change these

Palette: local (adaptive), colors: 256, forced: none, transparency unticked, dither: none.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 10:54 am**

I'm not sure, but I think you can load .bmps straight to UnrealEd.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 12:29 pm**

Its giving this error

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 1:07 pm**

Put it to DeusEx/Textures/, not Desktop/EarlyMorningDemo.

And try to load it from there.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 3:19 pm**

still an error is coming. Dae can u give me a skybox 4500x4500x4500 with that texture on walls

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 3:34 pm**

Venom, you do know you need to press 'Import' and not 'Load', right? As it's a new texture, you need to import and then 'Save' into a new UTX package.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 3:41 pm**

It works

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 3:43 pm**

Woa, congrats Alex and venom

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 4:01 pm**

thanks dae and alex. btw i have one more question

if u have a huge map and u want to add light which can lighten the whole map up. What do i do?(explain briefly plz)

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 4:09 pm**

Place ZoneInfo actor and in it's properties increase AmbientBrightness to desired level.

Or place many Light actor with their LightRadiuses set to high values.

The second way is better.

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 6:06 pm**

Which can lighten the big ass room faster

Posted: **Sat Jun 14, 08 6:24 pm**

the first

Umm... i thought PCX Files open from ImageReady... it comes with photoshop.... i think with CS1 to CS3... anyways your problem is solved :S
