Yes, paint will work, but I wouldn't recommend it. I'd try Paint.net, which has more options, and is free to use.

Re: Re-Texturing for Dummies
Hey guys, just to let ya know, when doing an extreme recolor, I find it easier to simply go into your modelling program, unwrap the UVW and then you have the lines and outline of the texture, and rather than recoloring, your coloring it for the first time

I think that a lot of people won't understand this. Using a 3d modelling program is harder than working with Photoshop (which is hard enough for a lot of people)... Then there's also the importing and correct linking to the right texture which can cause a headache.
So, well basically; I disagree

Yea, I was just posting that it was easier for me. I prefer to be able to color something for the first time than have to recolor it. I get what you're saying though, and recoloring works fine
And Sephi, UVW Unwrap just takes the texture off of something, allows you to add color, and designs, and then reapply the texture to an object. Think of it as pulling off the outer skin, recoloring, and re applying it

Re: Re-Texturing for Dummies
+Rep for nice tutorial!
I know no one has posted in this thread for a while, but I had a question. I understand how to re-texture an item, but say I wanted to create a re-texture but not overwrite the existing texture. Say I wanted to use the Longsword model, but for a single custom weapon with a different texture to make it stand out from the already existing longsword. Thanks for any help with this, and =rep to whoever can help me.

Re: Re-Texturing for Dummies
Make a new OBJECT entry, and a new texture entry. There are guides for doing so on www.fabletlcmod.com
