The Proboards modding community no longer uses Texmod, see Mod:Create Reskins instead
- For Texmod, see also: Mod:Create Reskins and Mod:Texmod installation
With the program Texmod a modder can view all the Dead Rising 2 texture files and then convert them to a desired format. For Dead Rising 2, this format is dds.
Texture files are the colors, styles, and designs for all items, people and places in the game.
A modder can then change the color and texture of these files, or even draw in these texture files, compile these texture files, and then play these files in Dead Rising 2 with texmod.
Instructions[]
1. Start Textmod. 2. Click the yellow folder icon under "Target Application" 3. Search for your Deadrising2.exe file 4. Select Deadrising2.exe. 5. On the Texmod box, click the middle button "Logging Mode" 6. Change the output format to dds. 7. Under Log with select the button to save the texture in. The default is the Enter key. This can be changed to any of the F-keys. But remember the game uses many of these F-keys. 8. Under Output folder select which folder the converted textures will be saved in.
7. When you start the game four lines of instruction will appear in red:
8. When the game starts press the - key. You will start to see the different textures in the top left corner.
