Title: Creating texture computer problems Post by: Chi_be_me_mavrick on July 12, 2009, 12:14:12 PM Hi new to the forms and txt hacking for that matter...i would like to make my own textures and i believe i can do tis right but one of my computers (my pc) says it doesn't have enough virtual memory to complete step 2 in re packaging the texture ...Is there a way to do this completely on my Mac ...? im stumped any thoughts

Umm... what are your computer's specs? It shouldn't take up THAT much memory to cause an error unless it is 1) a really old pc or 2) something wrong with that file. We are talking about step2 for ASH right? I could understand CUPASH giving this sort of problem, but not ASH.

Title: Re: Creating texture computer problems Post by: ピカノ on July 12, 2009, 12:41:42 PM Well just asking because...
ASH: Characters (Usually ~2MB or less output file) CUPASH: Character select portraits (~11MB or less output file, with lots of sub files) Anyway, tried increasing the amount? http://www.delete-computer-history.com/increase-virtual-memory.html It essentially reserves a portion of your harddrive (usually in ratio to your RAM, anywhere from .5x to 2x) for memory usage. But for a more technical explanation... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory Title: Re: Creating texture computer problems Post by: Chi_be_me_mavrick on July 12, 2009, 01:01:27 PM ok I'll try this ...Actually i have two other questions 1. none of the textures i download for bowser work and yes i know his proper name is koopa. Two, i downloaded textures for pokemon trainer but they did not come with the .pcs files can i create my own from the .pac??
Title: Re: Creating texture computer problems Post by: VILE on July 12, 2009, 01:05:08 PM 1. You need the .pac file as well.
2. Yes, either run it through ASH, or run it through NTcompress (the code to compress it is in my item guide). Title: Re: Creating texture computer problems Post by: Chi_be_me_mavrick on July 12, 2009, 01:26:36 PM Vile i went to your guide on stack smash and the link is broken...o wait no it's not it just has an extra h in front of http
Title: Re: Creating texture computer problems Post by: Chi_be_me_mavrick on July 12, 2009, 02:04:55 PM Ya.... im still not sure how to make .pcs files??
Title: Re: Creating texture computer problems Post by: Vyse on July 12, 2009, 02:25:10 PM Open it with ASH, touch nothing, run step2, say no for every file you're asked about. The _new.pcs you get upon completion will be what you want.
Though... on a Mac... Dunno if that'll work. Title: Re: Creating texture computer problems Post by: Chi_be_me_mavrick on July 12, 2009, 03:43:26 PM wow i feel dumb ...i wrote out my question wrong ok so for the pokemon trainer i was given the .pcs files how do i make the .pac files because when ever my pokemon switch out the texture is gone ...btw the texture is gamboy red from stack smash
Title: Re: Creating texture computer problems Post by: VILE on July 14, 2009, 06:12:56 AM Lz77ex = PCS > PAC
NTcompress (or ASH) = PAC > PCS |
