Ha! I'm pretty sure any 300 players I do would be retired by the time I complete them! But that hasn't stopped you guys and your TC mods, etc. I guess I could use the practice considering my current cyberface makes my fiance uncomfortable because I kinda look like a Thundercat in the game (which was not my intention, just crappy blending / poor ORD/ORL match). :)

The stuff you modders have made, discovered, organized and explained for us newbs is amazing! Thanks! I rarely post, usually just read and read threads, so I see alot of people asking things that were already explained. I try to make it a habit not to post / ask questions until I've read enough. I've seen plenty of people's patience tested with redundant questions, lack of respect or lack of appreciation.

Got my cyberface in the game! Had the "missing texture" (metal bin / name) issue after I got it to stop crashing. The "Search Topic" feature helped quite a bit. There's so many places where you can go wrong especially if you don't know exactly what you're doing. Now I'm working on fixing the face texture up and finding a good ORD/ORL match, and then it's on to audio modding. This is awesome!

Thanks for the quick reply! I zipped and installed with TiT yesterday and the game crashed when I viewed myself in the game, so I must have done soemthing wrong. I was partially trying to rule out where I might have gone wrong. I'm definitely going to try some more things tonight - replace what I messed up when I used TiT and try to simply my first attempts at a cyberface. This stuff is pretty difficult but I actually feel like I could do it after seeing all of the support info you guys have posted. I do have my portrait in the game, so that's a nice start!

Trying to make myself as a cyberface. Read and watched all of the tutorials (and read alot of threads!) and got a fairly good understanding of everything. Anyway, I can make a face texture in Photoshop but I can't view it in OEdit. I load the ORL, ORD files into OEdit and I can see the wire structure of the head but the lower right hand view (with the head model and the texture wrapped around it) has the head as a solid black model (even when I add the face texture to the model). I know Vista and OEdit don't mix and I did get the Vista fix. Am I still gonna have trouble because I'm using Vista? I see that in MVPEdit you can replace the FSH, ORD and ORL right there in the program. Could I simply assign myself a player ID that I don't care about, change the face texture in MVPEdit with my created one and assign appropriate ORD, ORL files to my created player? OEdit is so intimidating and it would be great if I could avoid it (I realize I'd have to get a great match in the ORD ORL files to make the cyberface look normal). Any help would be appreciated. I'm new to this and feel I've done my homework, you guys have provided so much info already! I just want to see how much I could do for myself. Thanks!
