OMFG!!!!!! I think I've run out of costume slots, well not slots but the amount of custom dlc. Is it true? Is there a limit?

How many slots are you using total? I use a single DLC folder in my game and it's about 1GB in size with 60-70, maybe more, outfits being used and added to regularly.

I'd have to check when I get home but basically, I have each costume in its own dlc folder. I don't know how to combine multiple costumes.

I used the save state feature in the DLC tool and overwrote my existing DLC. I can load the previous save state each time I want to add something new and resave the load state. Just did a count and I actually have 119 outfits assigned to my DLC; much more than I originally thought. The game may only be able to read a limited number of DLC folders. I can't say for sure if that's the reason though if you don't know your true outfit count

I haven't got anywhere near the costumes you have. I'll have to try and combine mine the way you have. Thanks for the help.

Hello everybody. It's the first time i post here.
I have some troubles for editing skins colors and faces.
After extracting a skin or a face using texture tool i try to open it with Gimp but the texture is all grey and i can't edit it at all.

I have the same problem with transparent textures. It opens but when i convert the file into psd the texture loose its transparency and in game there are black areas.

I hope you could help me. Thanks all.

I don't personally use GIMP but, much like PS, it probably needs the DDS plugin. A quick google search led me to https://code.google.com/p/gimp-dds/
That may be the plugin you need depending on what version you use.

Yes Gimp need a DDS plugin, but I don't work like that too I am using .png and working on software like Photoshop for edit files then convert them in .dds if need.
You should not use Gimp for edit your files this is not the best one in my opinion.

KasumiLove · Sep 20, 2015

I already use a ds pluging. Is it another version ? I only have this problem with skin textures. Other textures open correctly.

Can i use png to swap textures on texture tool ? And if so how can i extract ayane's face in png ? I'd like to make her blue eyes.

LolaGMODS · Sep 20, 2015

No you can't use .png for swap in Texture Tool but you can use it for edit and after convert it to .dds for add it inTexture Tool, this is how I do.

This may be a problem unique to GIMP as Photoshop doesn't have that issue. If you do get it running make you sure you are saving your skin files as DXT5 to ensure compatibility

As LolaGMODS stated you cannot use png files in texture tool. You also wouldn't want to use a png for anything skin related, as there are multiple layers embedded in the dds file. You can extract both using umod or the just the dds using texture tool. Unless your going to use lnk_reshuffle you'll still need to use umod to see it in game.

Does anybody can make me a file with ayane blue eyes ?

I definitely can't edit a skin face in png or dds without loosing all the layers. I don't manage to edit faces or hair in gimp and i don't have photoshop. So if somebody could do it for me i'd apreciate. Thanks ^^
