After lots of trial and error, I present to you... my first hexies! Tell me what you think, as long as you're being honest Being honest helps me improve these hexies, as well as future ones First up... Bloo! Bloo is based off of the character from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. He is a B/W Shorthair-based breed. He currently has the default sounds, since I'm not really sure what type of unique sounds he needs yet. Second off... Wheatley! Obviously based off the Portal 2 character; he also has the default sounds currently, but I'm planning to add generic robot sounds for now. He is a Sheepdog-based breed. Finally... Cute Alien Dog (CAD)! An original creation, with default Sheepdog sounds. I'm having trouble with adding his textures (FilthyHippie's Vortex Pack); I added 'em to the Texture List, but changing the numbers under the Paintballz and Ballz sections doesn't work for some reason... Hope you like 'em!

Wow, this is a really good job! I'm new to hexing and I don't think I could manage to make anything like this yet hahaha. I really like Bloo! For Wheatley, I'd probably add the horizontal bars he's got, though I don't know how easy (or hard) that would be to do. It would certainly make him more accurate to the game. I really like his eye, this is one cute Wheatley. I'm really curious to see how your alien dog will turn out. Did you give the textures the right transparencies and did you link them correctly? I don't know why they're not showing up Maybe someone who knows more about hexing can drop by and help.

odiepinkiepuppiez Are you using Petz Workshop for the textures, or LNZ? If LNZ.. Always remember the first texture in the list is 0 not 1. This kept throwing me until I read it somewhere. (I think it was a post by midnightwolf.) If PetzWorkshop Do textures as the very last thing. Reopening the file in Petz workshop makes the textures go away (for me anyway)... So I do everything else in PWS and texture in LNZ... Or I Use Bryn's Anchor Utility which Seeing Star's graciously hosts for us

stancymckatt I use LNZ, and I already counted from 0, not 1, to change the numbers. The textures are also fully opaque.

You've already made sure the texture is in the right folder for the game to pick it up, and that you're changing the number in the correct column (my personal most common mistake). So I'm out of ideas with what little knowledge I have. I'm still a beginner.
Hopefully someone else will come along with some suggestions. :-) The sheepie is my favorite of the three hexes you did, and I'd love to see the finished results ^_^

Ooooh I like it!
Have you tried asking for help somewhere else, like WW or the Hexers HQ Discord? Those places seem to be more active in terms of hexing help/advice, so you might have more luck there.

What color green is that? Only colors 10-149 will show textures. Would you mind posting the texture list?

My sincerest apologies... After looking at the texture list, I noticed a silly mistake I made... 'Resource/Dogs' instead of 'Resource/Dogz'! XD But even after fixing it, textures only seem to work on addballz for some reason. When I try adding textures on Paintballz, or Ballz Info, it still doesn't work (even though I changed all the colors to texturable ones). Maybe I'm putting the texture number in the wrong place? Here's my Texture List:

I tried putting the texture numbers in a different column, and it turns out that I had indeed put them in the wrong column It works now! Here's the final result: I'm going to release 'em soon... Stay tuned! ^_^
