Hassel is a whole other kind of messed up, fully transparent and not visible. Ill upload pictures of him as well. If anybody can help or point out where I messed up I would greatly appreciate it

Woke up late at night and realized I should probably point out that loading Hassel using the DDS textures leads to all pink as seen here. His Hair texture is nowhere to be seen either but neither was Ceruledge's eyes so Im not sure if thats gonna prove an issue. Same thing happened with Gible

I been reading forums on this Blender/DDS issue and watching videos such as this: https://youtu.be/VioHrAMlM3M

And apparently, Blender's viewport has troubles with displaying DDS textures, since it's not one of the supported graphics format. If you want to view them in Blender, you should probably convert those DDS textures into a supported format, like PNG or TGA. (png worked for me, and that's what i personally use)
Here is what Blender 3.4 currently supports: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/lates...rmats.html

I'm not really sure what the blender python script's "Use DDS Textures" import option actually does (i don't really use it myself), but when I tried using this option and importing a model with DDS textures, I ran into the same Pink model issues that you did. As I checked the materials to see if any textures were missing, I noticed it was indeed using the DDS textures and that everything was properly connected. I guess it's just a matter of Blender's viewport not being particularly fond of displaying the unsupported DDS format.

could somebody please upload the trainer and npc models?

Another Small update for Materials in Blender

Here's a Comparison

Thank you, but unfortunately converting the textures to png files leads to the first issue as seen above, where even when I place the texture images correctly they still refuse to show. Mind you I'm pretty sure I followed your tutorial to the letter so I'm not sure if I missed a detail or not.

After looking at your attached pics again, I think I see what your problem is. Look at your filenames. ( such as tr0160_00_body_00_albout )
Did you notice that all your filenames end with the word "out"? They shouldn't say "out". I think when you converted them from Noesis, you probably wrote the output path as

$inpath$\$inname$out.$outext$

The problem with this is that it adds the an extra word ("out") to the end of your filenames. That's why the blender script had trouble locating your png textures when you imported the model. Instead, the output path should have been

$inpath$\$inname$.$outext$

Try renaming your filenames and deleting the word out. I'm not sure if this will work on your DDS textures, but I'm sure it'll work on the PNGs.

Bingo, that did the trick! Thank you very much!

But Hassel is still missing the hair, it seems. I dont think this is an error I can fix because his folder doesn't have any textures labeled for hairstyle. But for everything else this should be all I need. Once again, thank you!

Hassel's one of the many NPCs which uses shared textures. Here's a list of all of the textures from the "share" folder that his model requires:

Look at me skimming that folder and thinking "...yea I probably wont need this I'll just ignore it."
Thank you so so very much, one last question and I should be good, do I need to rename the image files to line up with whatever character? Like should I replace "cm" with "tr0160_00"?

Nah, there's no harm in keeping the filenames as they are already, especially since the importer will be looking for those names specifically.

Alright thanks. That's one issue out of the way but another popped up. The hair (and even the gloves of which I never noticed) show up in the viewport now but the color is still missing. I'll show the folder in case I messed up there again-

Thank you for being patient with me-

I personally don't put the shared textures in the same folder as the trmdl model. Mainly because I think the blender script is looking for a very specific folder path when it comes to shared textures.

chara/share/[the texture's folder]/[texture.png]

I'm actually rather lazy about the shared textures. It's a pain to look for them. After I finished converting/replacing all of the Share folder's 298 bntx textures with PNG ones, I simply threw the entire "share" folder and the "model_uq" folder in the same Chara folder. That way, I never have to bother looking for these textures ever again.

in the first pic, the uvs are probably inverted

for both, try setting the emission strength on the material to 0

Apoligies for a very late replay I got super busy. How do you do that? I'm not familiar with that at all.
