Editing Balls ;)

[timedwins7]

To change the in game ball, would you have to use paint or paintshop pro 7 to design the ball, then all you have to do is import the BMP into the tex_pl.bin with WE Picture Decoder??? Is that all?

Mikeom, you probably know!

Well providing you followed the rest of the steps to get the ball file back into the game image. AND made sure not to mess around with the palette, as it would mess up all the other files in tex_pl (paletted).

Hmm, the pallete thing sounds complicated!!! I may have a go later. Cheers.

It's not as bad as you think tim, just extract the original ball image and edit that. Or do it by a process of importing and exporting palettes.

well thank you for that twice. What i want to do is put a proper good version of the EPL ball in. Would this be reasonably easy?

[mikeom1]

I'd say extract the dr xray one, or modify some found of the ftps. Probably easier then making one from scratch.

[timedwins7]

Yeah? The dr xray one is ok, but its all black, and some of it should be blue.
