I am trying to add a texture to a breed i am making. It is a texture that doesn't come with the game, so I have saved it in resource/dogz Im trying to use the tutorial on petz mirage, but it doesn't actually say what to write In the texture list i have written [Texture List] Scales_Blackoutline.Bmp 1 But it doesn't show up on the dog in the game. What should i write to make it show up?

Try making the texture file name shorter, like 4-5 letters.

when you look at textures, arent they like: something/something or other/filename.whatever maybe you should enter the file path.. just an idea

Your slashes are going the wrong way make them go like this \\\

I tried it like that, it still didn't work! I tried to figure it out, I "borrowed" the redmerl from the CKBC and pasted \resource\dogz\rdmerl.bmp 1 And it worked Then i changed it too [Texture List] \resource\dogz\scale.bmp 1 And it crashed the game! Argg!!

Maybe your texture just isn't the right format. AFAIK, it needs to be 256 color with the right palette, and at least in Petz 5 the dimensions must be a power of 2 (2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256, etc).

OoO I never knew about the dimensions thing! That's probably why none of my textures ever worked, because I always put the dimensions at 100x100! Thanks Nick

AFAIK, it must be 256 colour, with the correct palette. Search the web for some petz texture editing websites: They should explain it.
