beaar 78 Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Hi! I would like to retexture, among other items from vanilla A3, the Mk200 machinegun and the ARCO optic. As far as I know, they don't have hiddenSelections defined and so reskinning through config is not possible. Now, I've found out about a tool (MoveObject) by Mikero that supposedly can edit paths in p3d models to point to a new texture, but this would require distributing this p3d along with the mod. I am wondering what BI's stance is on this, if it is okay. It would be BI's content only, only from the base A3 game without DLC and not from other addon creators. The retextures would be continuing a winter theme I've started here: http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=369348419 Thank you, Bear Edited January 9, 2015 by rzon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theevancat 277 Posted January 7, 2015 I don't think so, because it's all binarized to protect their work. I'm not sure. Ask someone from BI, they'll answer you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beaar 78 Posted January 7, 2015 I contacted BI directly at first, and I was told to ask in the forums instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the sensible soloution would be to submit requests on the tracker for hiddenselections to those items. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beaar 78 Posted January 12, 2015 I see. Yes, my ticket on the feedback tracker was assigned to Locklear by himself this morning. I will wait for results. :) Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_SCAR 139 Posted April 12, 2017 Hi, I'm in this exact situation. I would only use these modified p3d inside of an arma mod. What did they reply? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
