texture file editing P5D PS4

[pseudo root]

Any1 can help me fix this? Workflow is extract texture as a .TGA from .bin using Amicitia, edited .TGA in gimp, Exported .TGA with gimp, Replaced texture file with edited .TGA and then built mod using mod compendium. Results in this. Game is P5D PS4

original bin here the .TGA is an incomplete but testing of editing the texture file and the _replaced.bin has the .TGA replaced

did a simple export as bitmap from the original bin for the texture 00 file and then replaced the file without modifications and then rebuilt the bin file and same thing occurs

Only thing that leaves me to believe is the way Amicitia is interacting with the replacement process or some metadata or info is not extracted when you originally extract the texture

here is the finished texture in .tga and .png

this is the weirdest part because I only edited the buttons which shouldnt cause this unless its some engine bs (buttons are in the correct spot and I think the scratch rings as well but everything else isnt. Either small or cropped improperly). Dimensions aren't modified either and its kept the same as original

where did you get the bin file from

if its data cpk you have the wrong file

data cpk contains vita assets

you need to edit the file thats inside ps4 cpk

[ancient orbit]

which should be gnf by the way

not tga

[pseudo root]

Holy shit

Yes I was editing data.cpk

Thanks I will look into it

I get that this was originally a vita game but why are the vita textures still present in the ps4 version 😭

[junior jay]

with a lot of old atlus games, data.cpk is identical across all platforms

this applies to the original P5 for example

[pseudo root]

Does Amicitia not support exporting the .gnf files to .tga or .gnf? Keep getting an exception error fallback

[ancient orbit]

it's a proprietary format so no

gfd studio and noesis can export from gnf

but to make one you need sdk tools

funny that tga worked though, maybe try using that for the edited texture still

[junior jay]

yeah

[pseudo root]

It exports but I think the header is corrupted because gimp doesn't read it properly. Tried loading in noesis64 as well and no luck

this is the supposed .tga it exported

[junior jay]

rename to .gnf and open it in gfd studio

[pseudo root]

yeah that works! New question but how would I edit a texture then? Looks like my old workflow wont work?

nvm seems like I got it

would simply exporting using gfd studio and editing using gimp and then importing work?

or is it too simple

[ancient orbit]

only one way to find out

[pseudo root]

will try and see!

[pseudo root]

looks like it did import however looks like my edits might have ruined the transparency any advice?

the Y B and A had to import in as a layer cause I custom made them however it prolly has to do something with the way I merged the layers I assume? ( I also added an alpha channel to the main texture to make edits? maybe thats what broke it?)

[ancient orbit]

you can reopen your tga in gimp

make sure to export without rle compression too

[pseudo root]

got it working properly I believe

just need a few more edits and should be good to release

[pseudo root]

are the dance_ui_p3.bin unused assests?

wondering if they are only there cause the games were developed near the same time

or is there some part of the game where you can change the dance UI to the P3D one

[ancient orbit]

they are one game

[pseudo root]

really? do you know a specific song I can go to to test the P3D layout then?

[ancient orbit]

dc was able to merge all 3 games with exe patching

[ancient orbit]

you cannot

games themselves function exactly the same but ui is different

even if you load songs from "other dancing games"

[pseudo root]

oh so all the Ui files are in the game itself but the only ones that can be used in P5D

[ancient orbit]

ye

[pseudo root]

interesting

thanks then I won't bother touching those files then

[ancient orbit]

idk why they didn't delete them lol

[pseudo root]

true its like 2gb in total you can clear up

but not sure if it will break the game so just left them there

[ancient orbit]

nah textures compress pretty well in cpk

[pseudo root]

oh I was talking bout like all the total P3D residue files

[ancient orbit]

most of the game size is from media

audio and movie files

[pseudo root]

the cpk themselves are pretty compressed but theres a shit ton ||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​||||​|| _ _ _ _ _

[ancient orbit]

they cannot be compressed

[pseudo root]

yeah the movies are big

Got the dance UI done just need to redo the menu and navigation textures
