How to install texture packs.

Now I know lots of people (mainly newbies) dont know how to install texture packs,so here it is,my guide to install them!
1.Go to whereever you installed kag (usually C: for windows users)
2. Click on the "KAG" folder
3. Click on the "Base" folder
4.
Now it gets a bit tricky,coz it changes depending what the texture pack changes so:

• If the texture pack changes human bodies,heads or the terrain go to the sprites folder and replace the sprites in there
• If the texture pack changes workshops,go to Entities\Rooms\Sprites
• If the texture pack changes zombies, go to Entities\Actors\Sprites
• If the texture pack changes items go to Entities\Items\Sprites
  
  
  And if the texture pack changes everything it should have a full base folder so you can just replace the whole thing...
  but if it doesnt, you should be able to tell where everything goes by the names of each sprite.
  
  I hope my guide helps people!

Ive seen other people asking for stickys. //yes it was me, People ask for stickies of other people's post, not their own.

 

well how to reget original textures? :(

 

You can only uninstall the game and reinstall it to have back original textures.
I recommand you to make a backup of original textures when you put another texture.

 

nvm i found a great way :D

1-Delete Base Folder..COMPLETE DELETE

2-Go to App and Delete Version.TXT

3-run Kag and it shall renew it's update and it's version checking which will redownload WHOLE base folder again :)
------

Note:this operation takes more time Downloading..in normal update it takes 2 min but in this it takes 5 to 15 minutes depending on amount of the things need to be checked and downloaded once more

so yeah..so Please Warrfork if you could make it on Your Top Post :)

 

Easier way. Back it ALL up before downloading any texture packs. When KAG Updates just back it up again with the new stuff.

 

I have a back up of my full base folder :)

 

Same, wait. BASE! I just have a backup of my sprite folder.

 

I back up the whole base folder for stuff that replaces rooms,sounds,items etc

 

wow..you should at least thank me that i mentioned a good way to whom ACCIDENTLY ruined their Base...thank you for nothing people

 

I do like the way maher,but you shouldnt expect a thank you for everything.

 

Its better to back up your base folder, like ImAwesome said, if anything is modded in that file, or multiple things in there, and you haven't backed up where you downloaded those things, just backup the whole base folder if you don't know what to do, or if its too confusing for you, Aka, Your a newbie at modding. :P

 

wow thx :D

 

i did not get this cause i have no idea where this "kag folder" is

 

What OS are you using? (Linux,Windows,Mac OS X etc)

 

windows

 

Ok,go to My Computer,then to C: Drive,then click on the "KAG" Folder.
