hey, I've been having a problem with Federlli's Zelda Pack. In it, some of the colors are incorrect and I don't know why. I asked in the topic for Federlli and was helped but something is still wrong and I don't wanna bother them again. I'm using Direct X as my render egine. But if I use opengl it is worse. The flames are still yellow, and the spiritual stones are different colors too. So I would really appreciate it if you could help me out. By the by this is a great topic idea.

wow you described all your PC we only need your CPU, GFX card and your memory

Try switching the combiner type for low end video cards and see what happens.

Do you have the latest DirectX installed?

**zeldafan970** · August 25th, 2005, 01:34

no when I changed the combiner type for low end video cards it looked even worse. I think the problem may be my version of DirectX. I think it is too old a version. If you have a link, or the name of the most recent version for me to google it would be great because I keep looking and I can't find it.

You can check your DirectX version executing dxdiag.exe

Here is the link to download DirectX 9.0c from the microsoft website

Federelli != Federlli

This is a fairly generic question, and should probably belong in the Rice Plugin topic, BUT, it's regarding Zelda textures specifically, so I'll throw it in here, for the time being.

I'm currently doing some editting on the skies. Since the skies alone are such a huge project, I figure it's a good place to help out. I threw together a reasonabe skybox, cut up the textures, and got everything loaded in game. All of the tiles are where there, and where they should be. Only problem is, NONE of them tile properly.

The format is png, from the PNG_all dump. I'm using a stock list of file names, so here's an example to help everyone know what texture set I am using.
THE LEGEND OF ZELDA#F9776A92#2#1#4B244EAB_ciByRGBA.png

Just what am I doing wrong, or, is here any way around this? I have plenty of work left on the skybox, but I don't want to continue any further until I know of a solution to get this tiled propperly.

Thanks a bunch.

I think I can shed some llight on this. Just because the tiles are rectangular, it doesn't mean that each tile fits together exactly like they were puzzle pieces. This game is 3d, so some of the tiles overlap, meaning some of them aren't 100% visible to make them fill the entire sky area. Think of it as a circular area. What I did on another game was, make a box of the whole area I was doing, and drag each tile into place. Then, nudge each tile pixel by pixel intil it matches up. I know it's a HUGE pain in the @ss, but I can't think of any other way to do it. Geez, I'm rambling! LOL
