torpedo core and flare problem

[BobTheBuilder]

hi, i have been modding torpedos recently, and i have noticed that wen i edit the torpedoflare.tga file that nothing on the actual torpedo changes... i realised that this is coz my torpedo is using the core texture for the flares ASWEL as the core.

does anyone know any possible reason for this?

thanks

I'm not too sure. The intricacies of the torpedoes in this game have always been a little too much for me to want to deal with. However, if I remember right, there is a tutorial for them on BCFiles.

thanks for the help but none of it is of any use to me... i went to that page to learn how to mod the torps, and i no how to make a torp and how to set different textures, but for sum reason its not doing wot i want it to. i.e. its using the core texture for the flares.
