Mumpfy Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Hi, so i was wondering if anyone here with more experience modding knows if it is possible to duplicate the minibike. i posted before a minibike overhaul i did, just textures, so i know i can make it look different, and long time ago i did a modded version of the xml files so i also know i can make it a lot faster. now my question is can i have 2 minibikes in game? like the regular one and then a custom one that i can make faster and different looking? if anyone has some tips would be appreciated.

Guppycur Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Yeh, just copy the entry and give it a different name. Do the same for its parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumpfy Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 i think that would work for modding the xmls but then i need a new texture for it an the atlas to be able to modify the look of it, thats the part im not sure how to do. i have replaced textures but never added a new one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Yeh there's just not a lot of space left in the texture atlas; you're much better off finding an existing one and overwriting it. ...hm, wait, I think the minibike texture has its own texture or is in a different atlas. Dust2Death would know. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUST2DEATH Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Minibike uses multiple texture sets. It can be done however its far more involved than just replacing the texture. The only way Im aware of is via SDX. You will need to rip the mesh and take it into unity. Scale appropriately etc. Apply texture sets. Export as Bundle. Load into game as new vehicle. If you rip and dont have animations, you will need animations. Also origin points if you dont get those to. Only thing I dont have working currently is the exhaust particles and headlight.

Mumpfy Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 Guppycur: yes the minibike has a texture itself you can change it by replacing it, i've done that already and works fine. but then you just have one minibike only with new texture. DUST2DEATH: that was my fear, that i had to do it from scratch using unity. i've done that with tools and guns, changing textures, using the custom mesh from the game, redoing the animation, fire particles for the guns, attached flashlight, animated shooting and reload, i added a silencer on one pistol. all that i can do. but the minibike is a lot more complex i think. not sure if im able to pull that one. funny thing is that if you check all the mesh files you can find the new big bike from a17 there... and some other stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mumpfy Posted September 22, 2018 Author Share Posted September 22, 2018 well done mate, you are the man. i checked yesterday some of the mesh for the bike and i know you went thru a lot of scaling and aligning if you did it from skratch on unity. well done. the big motorcicle do is a full mesh all togheter, you added it just as decoration or you have that working too?

DUST2DEATH Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I have the motorcycle working to, just not animated. Im currently breaking down the motorcycle to see if I can get it animated and working 100%. (probably pointless given A17 already has this done, but, the things we learn!)

War3zuk Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Can I ask, Is there a HD version of the minibike that can be added to the current game to go along with the upgraded textures ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUST2DEATH Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Mumpfy has his/her bike. I'll have one out soon enough. You'll have choices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War3zuk Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Ah this thread, I was hoping that the Alpha 17 bike & Jeep would of had more depth in its building, Like instead of just an engine you needed to actually construct it using Pistons, Plugs, oilpan & so on..... but heay ho.. The mini bike can stay the same as its a stater bike, I hope when it comes out that theres much more to putting them together.... +Vote for having a new HD skin lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumpfy Posted September 25, 2018 Author Share Posted September 25, 2018 yeah i have one textured bike, still will make some changes i think. eventually now that DUST figured out how to duplicate it i may do 2 textured bikes, non as the original, one faster, probably up to around 35 speed... we'll see if i can make it more complex to craft.
