zmh3 Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 How do i convert a v3o to dds? Does the converter do this? I've tried renaming it, but it simpley changes it to "example.dds" with a file extension of "v3o." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 You cannot .dds is the image file.v3o is the model file Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zmh3 Posted September 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 You cannot .dds is the image file.v3o is the model fileIn the process of reskinning i have to change the extension to v3o, so i can unpack it. Then you're supposed to "undo" to get it back to v3o. I've done it before, but for some reason i was only able to undo 1 of the files. so i've more upacked files that need to be put back to .dds.

Texas_DPS Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 use the dds converter in the download section. it changes it from dds to jpeg or whatever. its the same process to make it a dds, the V3O file is the model and you dont need to really do anything but you can open it with notepad and change what skin you want.
