To create a little more 6-seat round tables, I adapted a few original EA 4-seat round tables to fit the new Backyard Stuff rig.
In order to keep the file size down (and prevent duplicates), I would like the .package file to reference the original textures. I found the Group-Type-Instance codes of the original textures and edited the DST Image resource to reflect them. However, when I do so, my package stops recognizing there are any textures associated with it at all.
I am guessing the textures are also referenced from the Model resource and Studio isn't automatically updating that resource when I update the DST resource. Is there an easy way to edit this referencing in Studio? The Model resources are all binary files and I find those a completely nightmare to edit in binary editor because I lack the reverse engineered template to make the file readable.
To avoid the issue altogether I contemplating selectively cloning the original object and giving it the 6-seatable rig and slots but then I run into troubles editing the footprint, as well as the fact that I do not want to make 6-seat tables compatible for games that do not have Backyard Stuff.
Anyone got any tips on how best to go about texture referencing?
