EXPORT Floor texture as editable file?

Recommended Posts

How would I export a floor (Map) texture to an editable file?

 

I want to export the floor of the map I am using to an image file so I can edit it, how do I do this? I would guess it is possible as Hoppah edited the original freeplay map for his early LA Mod releases.

I think that you have to use a TGA file and then import it as I believe you can't export the e4m files and edit them.

Here is the original Freeplay map texture: http://forum.emergency-planet.com/files/file/382-emergency-4-freeplay-map/

If I can remember where Hoppah's LA version is I'll link it for you.


EDIT: I think this is the one: http://forum.emergency-planet.com/topic/12463-im-going-to-stop-modding/?p=170094
 

Good luck!

Beasty Is correct, unfortunately it's a one-way trip once it goes into the game, if I remember right 16T put theirs out for the original maps as jpeg, hoop puts his out as well, so they are a starting-point.. Just remember do not get rid of your floormap when it's imported into the game, just in case you want to or need to alter it later, you can't get it back out once it is in.  Thus you gotta keep the raw file to the map before you put it into the game.  When it goes into the game it has to be a TGA texture.

Oh I see, I was wondering how Stan got it on here without being able to export it.

 

Yeah I won't forget, I keep any raw files all the time, be it saves or normal files. Thanks for the explanation.
