[SOLVED]How to make Textures? - Viperdream - 03-19-2011
I searched all over the internet and forums how to create textures. Didn't find anything usefull : /
I have this JPG file that I want to turn into a texture to serve as a floor. It's grass. But how do I convert it to that .mat and .dds file?
Any help is appreciated

Well you can use for example "blender" to create a big plane and put in blender the texture on it and then create a .dae file ! After this you can use the .dae file with the modelviewer and it will create automatically a material file and then u will use the model editor to create your own entitie that you can use in the editor ....

But maybe there is a way to convert it to an .dds file by using GIMP 2 and then u have to use the material editor to change the texture ... there are some tutorials in the wiki about this !

I hope it helps you cause i am completely new to modding

But not to modeling apparently
I'll try it out and see what it gives

You have to use material editor. Try to find Everlone's conversion tutorial, that will help. I have a lot of custom texture used in my mod.
