One request was to reskin Gat as Professor Genki
Attempted to use Tool.
AOM couldn't launch cause the d3d11.dll doesn't work with it, I had to delete it and go back to the org_d3d11.dll.
Ray Wings doesn't mention (The d3d11.dll being changed) this so you'll think the Tool screws up your gamefiles...it backups up the original d3d11.dll switches it with different file that stops the game from starting at first.
You just need see first if you have a org_d3d11.dll in folder then delete the d3d11.dll & game_d3d11.dll > rename org_d3d11.dll to d3d11.dll > Run AOM in Windows > Delete, Re-extract & Open ResoRep > Select Application > Advance Settings > Enable mod Creator Mode (Should be enable by default) > Follow video from here
I need to start from scratch to see how it works 100%...as this having to "tinker" with software makes it difficult.
UPDATE:
And now for some reason after deleting & repasting Resorep it works (I think you need to run Resorep with AOM in Windows via Alt + Enter).
UPDATE:
Now the files can't open w/Paint.NET which supports .DDS, is this a different version of .DDS?
UPDATE:
Yeah, if you can't open the .DDS even though Paint.NET support .DDS, is cause the Extracted .DDS is DX11.DDS,
Paint.NET supports & has plugins to support DX9 & DX10 .DDS.
...THIS AGAIN first it was FBX version in SR4 to convert to Blender & now
the .DDS version in AOM is DX11!!!
Apparently there is alot of info I just found...I don't blame anyone its not like they changed the format from .DDS9 to .DDS11

UPDATE: Rename .DDS to .DDS2
Based on what I read on a DX .DDS Plugin for Paint.NET actually supports DX11 .DDS, but there is like BC7 that has to do with DX11...yeah layer of versions with versions...I'mma Test though
UPDATE: SUCCESS!!! (DDSFileTypePlus.zip)
So the following I did at the same time
- Updated Paint.NET to 4.0.2.1 & .NET Framework
- I downloaded this Plugin for Paint.NET > Place .dll Files in Paint.Net's FileTypes
https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/111731-dds-filetype-plus-2018-07-09/
- I renamed the file from .DDS to .DDS2 (The Plugin requires it) & IT OPENED IN PAINT.NET
- I recommend Advance Renamer for batch renaming (Bulk Rename Utility doesn't rename everything)
