Can anyone tell me how to make textures from scratch?

A program like photoshop, MS pant, e.t.c.

sonic stuff, like stage decors, character and object skins... Stuff like that

...You can use original textures as a reference....

what i do is open up an image modifying program (photoshop or GIMP), get the wireframe texture (USEFUL!) and set it as the top layer. from there, i just color it in using flat colors. then i use 3dsmax(not necessary, but good effect) and render an Ambient Occlusion map and set that as a layer (for shading) and then its complete

Damn , you're good!

how do i get the wireframe texture?

you can use a simple program like UVMapper or simply render a wireframe from 3dsmax (and i think blender). it should look like this, a UV render of my custom klonoa model:

In 3ds max it would be ->Modifier: Unwrap UV->Edit->Tools->Render UVW Template

Thanks for the help guys! I really appreciate it!

No problem, if there's anything else, let us know it. If not, tell the Mods to close this

One more thing. Can anyone tell me how the hell do I change texure paths in *.DAE files. I've tried using Notepad ++, but for some reason, I can't save the changes to the paths!!!
