Thalia Avora Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Hi! So my question is after I purchased some clothing .tga and .psd templates/files on the market place...how do I get them open up in the free gimp program?? The items are sent directly to second life. Any advice would help. Thank you for taking your time to read this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Voxel Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 It sounds like you got some full perm clothing. not sure whether it’s a mesh template or an applier template. Anyway, open the folder. Open your diffuse texture, uv, ao if it has it and speculation maps. Or which ever the creator included. At minimum it’s going to be a uv and an ao. If it’s full perm you want to save those textures to your HD. You can choose .psd or .tga when you save it to SL. once you’ve saved it to your HD, you should be able to open the file in your favorite graphics program, no problem.

Tazzie Tuque Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 you need to download the template texture files to you computer, so you can access them in gimp. as described in the message above that just came up while I was typing this, so I need not go into detail since it is all there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
