[Tutorial]Injecting, texture modding and model changing!

[Jarppi]

Ok so i see alot noob asking how to inject, where to inject and bla bla bla.... well, refer them to this tread next time!

Ok here are the following parts of the topic:
a) injecting files
b) texture editing
c) model changing / swapping



A) INJECTING FILES:

For every new modders, injecting in the first challenge to pass, follow this part of the topic to
be sure to do things correctly

1ST step;
Find the file where you have to inject your mod or the mod you have downloaded (do not forget to extract, winrar(mostly used to compress files))
if you dont know where to inject, chek this topic, if its not writted in the post: EVERY REZ FILES AND WHAT THEY CONTROL


2ND step;
open the injector (RezInject)(injector placed at the end of the topic under usefull modding programs rar) and click on file name, browse your combat arms folder, then game ( like this normal time: C:NexonCombat ArmsGame) and select the .rez you want to inject your file in,


3RD step;
to inject the mod, press add under files to inject, browse where you extracted the mod and select it (remeber, .dtx = texture, .ltb = model) then press inject (you can inject more then one mod at the same time, make sure its written under status: file found/ ok)


4TH step;
go into you combat arms folder, game (C:NexonCombat ArmsGame) and search the .rez where you inject your file, you should see somthing like this:


create a back-up folder, select the .rez and drag it into the back-up folder (HIGHLY RECOMENDED) and rename the .reznew to .rez

5TH step;
start the game and enjoy!!!



B) TEXTURE EDITING:
So you want to try out modding texture and see what skills you got? well try out by this way!

1ST step:
Run RezXtract, get into your combat arms folder and search the folder you want to take the gun from (again: EVERY REZ FILES AND WHAT THEY CONTROL)


2ND step;
press open, let the prosses do itself, it will look like this:



*wait until you see extraction complete!
**it will auto extract into your combat arms folder, in a big folder with the name of the selected .rez

3RD step;
Open DTX Convert (do not close it after use), browse the file you want to edit, i will take for example: the l96a1, witch is name is PV_L96A1, click on it and press convert to Lith Tech ( it will be instant, dont be scared, its fast )


4TH step;
open photoshop (link to cs3, cs4, cs5, portable all the photshops)
then browse your dtx (important, you have to put the plug-ins, included into the .rar for rez tool)

5TH step;
now, take a brush, (i sugest to take overlay (see pic) for everything, its just perfect for modding) and do what you want to do,


6TH step;
now you have to save, press file, save as and choose dtx format


7TH step;
now, get back on your DTX convert and press convert to nexon!


8TH step;
open the injector (RezInject)(injector placed at the end of the topic under usefull modding programs rar) and click on file name, browse your combat arms folder, then game ( like this normal time: C:\Nexon\Combat Arms\Game) and select the .rez you want to inject your file in,


9TH step;
to inject the mod, press add under files to inject, browse where you extracted the mod and select it (remeber, .dtx = texture, .ltb = model) then press inject (you can inject more then one mod at the same time, make sure its written under status: file found/ ok)

10TH step;
go into you combat arms folder, game (C:\Nexon\Combat Arms\Game) and search the .rez where you inject your file, you shuld see somthing like this:


create a back-up folder, select the .rez and drag it into the back-up folder (HIGHLY RECOMENDED) and rename the .reznew to .rez

11TH step;
start the game and enjoy!!!



C) MODEL SWAPPING
ok so youve done alot texture modding, you are quite haveing the habbit with extracting and injecting so i will pass over these steps.

1ST step;
I sugest you to extract the folder and create folders for every guns (it shuld be 4 files per gun)

2ND step;
Now you have to choose a good gun, compatible, to mod your gun to a new model, here is what a sugest for easyer mods:
-follow the model size category( you wont get large or small weapons):model size category
-i recomend to always chek the stats, remember, ONLY fire rate changes! so you wont get a m134 at m32 fire rate.
-chek the correspoding anibases files at the very end of the topic ( i wont go trew hex editing, since i dont know how to deal with it perfectly)

3RD step;
Select the anibase of the P90 (i take this as example) and copy it into a new folder you create for modding


4TH step;
Find the anibase of the scorpion (here its ani-g) and do the same thing you did for the p90, but in the same folder


5TH step;
now, right clic the P90 anibase and copy the name then write ORIGINAL after the name, then R-clic the scorpion and paste the name


6TH step;
Now inject the renamed anibase in guns_m_smg (for this example) and rename, like normal time for rez editing

7TH step;
Get in-game, but its not over yet, just chek if your model swap had wored, you will see weird all texture, its normal, (if your swap doesn't work, try to un-equip all your gear, and get ingame again)

8TH step;
Now get back on your desktop (leave the game, close it) and find the dtx for the p90 and the scorpion, copy them in the folder you put the anibase's

9TH step;
Rename the files, just like we did with the anibases, inject, and run combat arms.
* you can only do textures if you want, like for m416 to m416 camo

10TH step;
freaking pwn noobs with your super gun, no nx, no probs, moding is here for you!

Extra infos for swapping (100% iR4WR):
The left is the file of the gun you want to mod it to and the right is the actual file of the gun it belongs to. E.g if you wanted to mod a m16 to g36e the left would be the g36e, the right would be m16.

*anibase->pvmla
-
*anibase->cm_hnd_nm_df
-
*ani_g->pvmla
-
*ani_g->cm_hnd_nm_df
-
Pvmla->pvmla_w
-
Pvmla->pvmla
Pvmla_w->pvmla_w
Pvmsh->pvmsh
(the above need to be done as a group to work)
-
Cw_hnd_nm_df->pvmla

DTX files are image files that contain the textures of a weapon. Therefore, DTX files are only for texture editing or scope editing.

Choose the rez file that you're going to inject 1st
Then make sure that you're injecting the correct file
If it's a duplicate, make sure you select the right folder

[redsp0t]

For the injecting the .dtx into the .rev file I am getting a "not found" for status. I literally tried everything that i could think of.

Please help me.
