About texturing

[sunga]

hey,

recently tried to do some texture modifications,
i started with some of undead hair models, i converted it with wow image converter and i changed the color with photoshop the problem is when i open wow, i see the modified hair but it's totally black and it should be red, the weird fact is that when i zoom to my character, the red color appears.

i'm very new to texturing so if someone could explain me how it works, it will be very appreciated !

(excuse my english i'm not sure my problem is very clear)

Can you take screenies of the problem. Might be that your hair color is too dark so it may seem black when it is red or it might be a bug that turns hair black.

here is the screens

as you can see the is still black pixels even when i zoom.

when i opened the converted file with toshop the background was plain black, so i copied only the hair part and created a new image with a transparent background but the problem didn't disapeared.

Have you tried different Blp converters. Many have bugs for specific texture files.

Had something like this happen a long time ago. Think it had something to do with alpha channel.

Try converting the blp back and forth without editing.
