Wrong word used! |
|
Created my own player but where to put the .dds file?
Not sure if I followed the instructions to save the file properly but I did whatever was written by TruBlu if not wrong.
So how to see my own creation?
Thanks in advance!

Hello, we can t see the dds file, you have to put it in a zipfile when you attach the pic in the Forum. Or you can save it as jpeg ( jpg )and then you can attach the pic in the Forum. When you have a dds pic for your player that you want to show up in the game, try to save it in this location:
C:\Program Files (x86)\EA Sports\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08\Data\Players
( so you have to put the dds pic in folder: Players )
Some more help on link below: http://www.coursedownloads.com/forum/posts.asp?post=9869&forum=11 |

Thanks mate. Here's the jpeg.
I've placed it in the folder as specified but still can't see it.
So wonder what did I do wrong.
When saving the file there's no such option as mentioned by TrueBlu so I copied and pasted the options from his post before saving the file. Photoshop and Paint.net can see the file but not any other photo/graphic viewer programs. |

Adding in here is that am using a player I created and had been playing with this player all these while. Just want to make it looks "real" with the real picture displayed.
Thanks! |

usually when you create a player - or use a created player - and play a few holes or a course then an image file is created by the game in the
C:\Users\username\Documents\Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08\Career\Players\PlayerName (or similar named location for XP)
and is named: photo.tga
this is based on what facial features, clothing etc etc are used in Gameface
from that image an icon button like you posted above is created By The Game in that same folder but is named photobtn.tga
it is actually a .dds image file but the game names it with the .tga extension
IF - you want to use your real picture instead of the gameface picture for the photobtn/icon
open the Player folder where the photo and photobtn images are copy/paste both in the folder, so you have a back up copy of each
Rename the photobtn.tga file to photobtn.dds
open in your image editor that can process .dds files
note: the photo.btn template if the same as the logo template, seen on the courses page at left - so use that if you want to start with
insert the image you want on the player button to the photobtn template
save as .dds
copy/paste it so you have a copy
rename it to photobtn.tga
it will show in the game as your player button/icon |
