seven125 Member Posts: 223 From:Austria Registered: Jan 2001 | posted 06-26-2002 11:26 AM Thank you for your suggestion hteS but that didn't work Might it be that the texture is somewhere in the wad and that i can change it like any other? IP: Logged
aktrekker Member Posts: 1170 From:WA, USA Registered: Apr 2001 | posted 06-26-2002 11:31 AM I think that texture is in the MISCELLANEOUS_SPRITES object. But if I remember, it looks kind of black and white to me. IP: Logged

Data Moderator Posts: 1873 From:Omicron Theta science colony Registered: May 2001 | posted 06-27-2002 12:28 PM I am not aware of any editing tool that will allow this, however I hope that someone proves me wrong. IP: Logged
Phabius Phodes Member Posts: 713 From:Sao Paulo, SP, Brazil Registered: Jun 2001 | posted 06-27-2002 01:30 PM In my first level "City of Blezqi Zatsaz", I tried and tried to change the object tint for the rope but it did not work! Itīs happening again in my 3rd level... I think sprites cannot have the colour changed, as I tried to darken the darts and it did not work either... IP: Logged
seven125 Member Posts: 223 From:Austria Registered: Jan 2001 | posted 06-27-2002 01:42 PM But remeber: Quite a long time ago one of the forummembers (was it geckokid? i don't know) was able to change the fire emmiter so that it looked totaly different from the yellow fire (it looked like green and blue circles dancing in the air). Maybe this forum member could tell us how it is possible? IP: Logged
Netslider Member Posts: 699 From:Entroncamento, Portugal Registered: Feb 2001 | posted 06-27-2002 01:42 PM I think we can change it, because if you have the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider DVD and see the clip "Are you Game", there is a part where you see Lara swingging in a blue rope in something that seems bo be the Temple of Karnak or The Tomb of Seth.

seven125 Member Posts: 223 From:Austria Registered: Jan 2001 | posted 06-27-2002 01:45 PM So it is definately possible! But how? IP: Logged
aktrekker Member Posts: 1170 From:WA, USA Registered: Apr 2001 | posted 06-28-2002 09:58 AM Maybe you could use strpix to export the textures for the miscellaneous sprites object. Then change the color on the textures and import back again in strpix. IP: Logged

aktrekker Member Posts: 1170 From:WA, USA Registered: Apr 2001 | posted 06-28-2002 11:05 AM I don't think that works on nullmesh objects (objects that show that red pyramid in the LE). IP: Logged
tertio Member Posts: 40 From:Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape, South Africa Registered: Jun 2002 | posted 06-28-2002 11:41 PM well the rope texture are in the defualt_sprite object... you can view it with WADmerger and extract the textures and only change the colour of the rope not the letters or bubbles, just the ropen and import it to your wad and save and see if it worked IP: Logged
