How to create a player face for Rugby Challenge 3

[hattinghmarius]

Tools you will need. (make sure you save the files correctly, double check your file sizes and descriptions)

PHOTOSHOP
PSSG Editor
DXTMP
FRANS RC EDITOR

You can use any head diff closest to what you are going for as a template. If you follow these steps it will always work. To ensure you have great quality use the best front profile pic of that player you can find. Remember that you would have to create the likeness (ear size, mout ect) in game if yours is not already customed because this is only the face skin and not the shape.

I don't want to overwrite the id "006" in the game.I want to make a new skin id

Make sure your dds is DDXT1 with alpha usually around 144 or 72kb in size. Also make sure your images are the right size before import.

Also reopen your pssg files and double check that your is is correct

EP pssg editor works best

Also you save 006 as 494 or whatever but you so for example head_diff_494 and copy in the new id into the folder do not overwrite your 006 in the face folder it remains there

Oky,how do I know if it's the right size?

Use the ones you export as reference. It has to be exactly the same.

this is what it says when I opened your file it seems the info was not saved in the pssg it stil shows head_spc_004. I will save correct and test

 

[hattinghmarius]

So you did all correct it seems except the rename part. Use Ego Pssg. Ryder was also giving me problems no matter what version I tried. I renamed and tested started a game no issues. Great try. Tip - Try adding more detail to the skin as I think it looks very default but good job. Bare in mind the face likeness in my db is not adjusted to the real player.

My Ego Pssg Editor doesn't have a "All section" function,only "All Nodes"
