VILE's INTERPRETATION:
I have decided to start texture hacking. The first character i want to hack is pikachu. I extracted his .pac and got 13 folders. Most were eye textures, but one looked like his attacks. My question is, where is his skin texture, so i can edit it?

ORIGINAL:
Ok even more odd i found a picture of what his file should look like and realized that my files are wrong or the wrong color any ways all pikas skin is black im not sure what my ash tools are doing to change it???

VILE's INTERPRETATION:
Ok, i ran into another problem. I found a texture that looks like his skin. Whenever i edit it, his body is going black ingame, whats happening?

Where does mipmaps fit into any of this Vile?

Anyway... someone posted a guide on pikachu's layout in the tutorial forum recently. A lot of his texture for "main" is reused all over his body.

He is saying that his pikachu texture is going black. Im assuming its mipmaps.

I dunno, I don't see that anywhere --- not even in your translation.

Ah I see now... didn't realize the second post was also by him. That really mixed me up.
