Hello,

I've read that it's impossible atm to make true custom 3D portraits...

But what I've been trying to do is just alter the hair color of a current model (Nova). The problem is that after I import the file back into SC2, there are parts of hair that look completely black and blocky-looking. Although I can see my altered hair color has taken effect, the black and blocky-looking parts I have no idea why those are present, (all I did was alter the color in Photoshop).

Is this part of the general issue of not being able to make true custom 3D portraits? Or is it possible to just alter the hair color of a unit's 3D portrait?

I've attached a pic of what I'm seeing below.

-peace

@numark79: Go Edit the texture and leave the model alone, that should do it.

But it is :) with version 1.9 http://www.sc2mapster.com/assets/m3-export-plugin-3ds-max/ it is possible.

That's the weird thing though, in that picture all I changed was the color of the t1_sm_nova_hair_diff.dds file. I didn't touch the model.

Did you modify the alpha channel?

I did not. Are you supposed to? How exactly?
