How to Replace Textures

caution

The following instructions depend on if you are using a release version (pre-compiled) or building the project from source.

If you're looking to create your own texture packs, see the Developing > Texture Packs page for more info.

Using the OpenGOAL Launcher

If the texture pack has been bundled into a valid .zip file, you can let the launcher install the pack for you.

First open the texture pack page:

Next add your zip file, if it is in a valid format it should add successfully:

Next you'll want to enable the pack and apply the changes, and that should be it!

If you don't want to use this feature, or the texture pack is not in the correct format, you can apply texture replacements yourself manually.

Navigate to the folder that you set as the Installation Directory. You can find this in the settings page.

From there, you'll want to create a texture_replacements/ folder in the following directory:

<INSTALLATION_DIRECTORY>/active/<GAME>/data

And copy your texture replacements into it.

Once this is done, you'll need to Decompile the game:

Create a folder called texture_replacements inside the data directory. The directory structure should be

data/texture_replacements/page_name/texture_name.png

Where page_name is the name of the folder in data/decompiler_out/jak1/textures and texture_name.png is the name of the texture.

Textures to be replaced should be saved in

jak-project/texture_replacements/page_name/texture_name.png

Where page_name is the name of the folder in decompiler_out/jak1/textures and texture_name.png is the name of the texture.

tip

You'll have to create the texture_replacements folder yourself.
