Tiles behind interface

[Zolgia108]

I am sorry for this noobish question, i've searched all over the forum for the answer but i can't seem to find it.

How do i change the tiles that surround the interface with another texture? Thanks...

Could you post a screenshot about what do you want to change ?

No SBARINFO is not really my speciality , but you should double check that the texture is big enough to cover that or see if there's an offset of some sort with that

In *ZDoom ports, it's the borderflat property in GameInfo section of ZMAPINFO.

oh okay maybe i am about to get it. So basically i need to change it on mapinfo, but what else will it change? And which entries should i put? Sorry im into this just since a couple of days :)

Replace the "BRDR" graphics to match the rest. Check inside an IWAD to see all of them and what you need to replace. No need to mess with MAPINFO.

okay found them, but now i guess i need XWE to complete the process right?

I mean, i need to convert them to png then modify them and then convert them again, am i wrong?

*ZDoom can handle PNGs just fine.

 

Also I'd strongly suggest using SLADE 3 nowadays instead of good ol' XWE.

[Zolgia108]

im using slade but

ok here is the problem

i took all of the brdr files, converted them to pngs, exported them as palettes, changed the colors via paint, then i imported them back on the wad in which i need them and converted them back to doom graphics. Nothing changed (all this with slade ofc)

What? Why? How? They're not palettes. I'm going to suppose you meant "paletted PNG".

 

Upload a wad with just your changed BRDR graphics and let people take a look.

[Zolgia108]

yes ofc i meant paletted png sorry! nothing to see there, i just tried with plain red recolour. they all look the same ^^

All you have to do is make your new graphics how you want them and name them the same names and stick them in your WAD. If you are using GZDoom, it doesn't matter if it's PNG or Doom format or paletted or not.

 

Just be aware not all colors translate to Doom palette very well.
