Funny how much a little surface change could make the game interesting in a whole new way. |
Yeah I saw that thread and forgot all about it. Grinkles second post response in that thread is what I had in mind about cosmetically altering zone textures.
I wasn't looking to use custom textures not previous a part of EQ however like he did in his case, but simply have a way to pick and choose textures that EQ does in fact use and swap them around as I like between various zones.
Like if I could turn a wooden textured building into a mossy stone, granite, or brick one instead as a example. I want it in my case for zone lines to better match different custom zone line transitions from one zone line to the other.
Is it possible to just rename zone texture files and use them for different zones? Like could I reuse Rivervale textures for Freeport zones? and vice verse?
If that's the case a simple .bat file would be a easy way to customize zones that could be distributed legally just having it backup old textures to a folder and then having it copy, rename, and overwrite (replace) the previous textures with the ones you wanted to swap over.
This guy also has some texture modification stuff people might find interesting.
