Fast Question about Modding

[DarkLink]

Okay look, I never had modding for gta, but I already replace some years ago..

I know that there are .dff and .txt files right?

Now my question is, there is a car named "ranger", its the police rancher you know?

On that car there are words like: POLICE.. or something else.. right?

So which is the file responsible for that? its the texture file right? .dff its only for object 3d model I guess..

If so.. how do I change a texture? which program? where can I open the texture saying "police" and name it ?

Not blender or autodesk, thats for object body 3d right?

Maybe I am wrong, wanna answers of someone that knows .

Thanks in advace

I use TXD Workshop to edit the .TXD files (textures).

You can export it as a image then import it back.

Thanks for your fast reply solidsnake

I already had a look at that before posting in here, and I found ranger.txd on gta3.img... but there are strange imgs.. nothing saying police that I can edit..

So ? I dont get it mate, thanks in advance

Are you sure that it's the correct vehicle? maybe you're wrong.

Acttualy I am, I dont really know what is the name of the file of the police ranger, do u know?

Anyway the images show are kinda weird, I though I could change the colors on .txd of some details and such..

Thanks

Always a good idea to look at vehicles.ide to check vehicle information, as the filenames are not always the same as the in-game vehicle name. In this case, the TXD associated with the Police Ranger is 'copcarru.txd'. But the TXD does not include any textures with the 'POLICE' marking on them.

As far as I know, those 'POLICE' markings are only contained in 'vehicles.txd', a generic TXD which all vehicles pull textures from.
