How do i get from photoshop png's to a working patch?

[ashtreylil]

so ive decided i want to make a patch in sphax style for the tombstone mod. my question before i embark on this adventure is....once i make the textures how do they get from 2d images to 3d objects in the game. im not good with programming and such but im happy to make the images

In some cases, the texture for the object in question will have a sprite-sheet of sorts containing the textures for each part of the object, a lot like mob textures (face, arms, legs, etc...). The programmatic application of those textures is done in Minecraft. In other cases, a single texture is simply copied to each side of the object programmatically - again, this is automatic and you don't have to concern yourself with anything but the texture.

I hope this answers your question

I don't use photoshop, but anyway, in addition to Aedaeum's post, it is good to know what goes where on a 3d model, so you can visualise whether something will work/ tile smoothly.

In tandem with EskiMojo's comment, looking at the object in-game is a good way to visualize it.

whelp....i just looked inside the mod and all i can find are 2 solid textures. one of them is for the base of the stone and another is for the actual gravestone. this may take all of 5 minutes unless there is a way to edit the shape of the stone. guess you have to crawl before you walk right

Start small and work up from there.
