hi I use Gimp for editing the tga files extracted with the UTF
But... I change Juni´s hair color and juni´s clothes colors and then i re-import and save .. then when I open FL and go see Juni .. I see a disaster .. the texture changes and all I see is noise
How is exactly the way to edit the tga?
____________________

Another thing I would love to do is get juni´s model and import it on blender or 3dStudiomax
Is there any way to do this?
yes i love juni lol

Try not to save with compressed TGA or get the gimp dds plugin and save the textures as dds : http://code.google.com/p/gimp-dds/downloads/list
For the moment i don`t know any editor that imports and exports characters 3D models (.def).

Freelancer does not care how many layers you have and if there is one texture file used for both the hair and the face and the file is screwed up, so it is completely and not partially.
Since there is no transparency channels in Juni's character textures, you can index the colors and save space saving the TGA. Can't tell what the problem is though. I always used Photoshop.

Yea. I merely meant that I don't know what the problem may be. It's likely somewhere on the way between chair and keyboard
Anyone knows how exactly to save TGAs/DDSs in Gimp so they work in FL?

Try flipping the image vertically before you save it as a TGA file. Has to be done in freelancer unfortunately.

Try deleting the MIP that you are not using, if only MIP0 exists in the file then it's the only one that will be used. If that doesn't fix it then must be layers.

... and maybe effects on them, too.

Once b4 in time I repainted some ships on which some effects where used and noticed mix with old ones.

guys this is driving me crazy D:
I even took a screenshot of my tga and then made a NEW tga and paste the thing there
And again... mix

So as Sumanuti said... must I edit the MIP without effects?
just pixel art?? That´s too much work just to turn Juni into a hot-redhead-asian

The thing I was doing was:
-Turn this tga indexed image into a RGB tga image
-New Layer
-Paint the hair red, then apply blur in the corners
-Turn the red layer into a semitransparent red so it goes upon the hair and then the hair has the same drawings but the black turns red
-"Lipstick" on juni (same steps as with the hair)
____________
I edited the eyes too, now they are green but it seems they have the same problem
_____
what do i do people I´ve seen a black haired trent so it must be possible
___
Another cap

Anyone remember Aldebaran's Plastic Surgery Kit? Added loads of heads and other stuff you could bolt onto people, including Juni
