[HELP|SA] Material ID ingame reassignment

[RiseDie01]

Hi all.

 

I'm converting all the weapons from Grand Theft Auto V and i want to know one thing.

 

For example, here it is the material panel of the pistol

As you can see, the texture of the pistol body is marked with the ID 2

i want to make also all the weapon tints and i was wondering if there is a method to change that ID in game.

I'll explain myself: for example, i put a texture with the pink tint texture with ID 4 (and of course I put that texture in the txd archive) and i need to swap those IDs when I'm in game to change weapon texture and apply the tint to the gun.

​Is there a way to do this?

Not sure what exactly is that you want... But I get that you want to swap ID 2 and 4. Well, what I'd do would be to select pistol model, go to edit tab and select "faces". If you scroll down a bit you'll see "select ID/Set ID" for materials. I'd type 2, select, then set to ID 5. Then select ID 4 and set it as 2 and ID 5 as 4. Then rearrange material IDs and voila.

Yes, i want to swap those two Material ids but during the game, not in 3ds Max.

Alternatively, is there a way to change texture to a model always ingame? Maybe with a cleo script?

I think you'll have better chance with making 2 models and switching between them through cleo.
