so ive been messing with manipulating the dds files in paint net. For example for the 'jegrina' costume for plum I tried trimming away more of the shorts - but for some reason when i did it the entire shorts disappeared in game. any idea what i may be doing wrong?

Here are the filenames for the Plum Charles Rene costume which I swapped out for the Grunil:
473663678.dds
867726445.dds
1657787454.dds
2166737645.dds
3195384492.dds
408639139.dds

Have you managed to figure out what the settings should be? It always asks for settings when I try save a file...??

When I save a dds texture in Paint.net the settings are like this:
DXT1 or DXT5 depending which type it is
Compressor Type = Iterative fit
Error Metric = Perceptual
Additional Options both checked (Weight Color & Generate Mip Maps = On)
Fant

Most likely you're saving the textures incorrectly, see my reply to vanzgoogle above for the correct settings.

I've updated the first post on this topic to include the latest version of my mods pack, which you can get here:
NickyWorldBDOv7.7z

There were a few armors I was still working on that have been added and more refining will be done for the next update.
I forgot to screenshot the last Plum armor (Hercules' Might swapped to the Awakening) so I'll add that image later.
For some unknown reason, modding this armor has resulted in a "ghost/frozen" effect on her right hand gloves, but it looks quite cool so I'm happy with it.

As always, please read the instructions for correct use.

Thanks for those armors !
Also, the frozen right hand on Maehwa is like that on the vanilla armor too, I tried swapping it without any retexture and it was like that already.

If you look at the end of this video, you can see a sneak peek at Musa and Maehwa awakened weap & armors, it's even glowing :D

That's a bit of a mystery, the second layer isn't a separate texture that can be removed, instead it appears to be the same texture used twice.
I don't know why they have done this for the witch, unless it was wrong coding in the instructions which tell the game how this costume is used by the witch class.
My best guess is there are two versions of the costume designed to fit the slightly different shapes of the female classes, and probably by accident the witch has ended up with both size versions of this texture file getting applied instead of just one.
If there will be a fix for this, it's not going to be through texture modding, so it's beyond my skills to do it sadly.

I really like it and would like to change only this one for now. If you know the dds I'd really appreciate it

The files I modded for the Plum Red Moon costume are:
491043312.dds
2452397449.dds
2455192927.dds
2518989139.dds
These ones are also part of it but I didn't make changes:
114156877.dds

A workaround for that would be to use the Kibelius from another class with the armor swap.
I tried with the sorceress one and it worked

Here's the code if needed :
Code:
<!-- Swap starter Witch armor to Kibelius Sorceress  -->
<Conditional Code="U">
    <Model Index="-">1_PC/8_PWW/ARMOR/9_UPPERBODY/PWW_03_UB_0003.PAC</Model>
    <Model Index="U">1_PC/2_PHW/ARMOR/9_UPPERBODY/PHW_00_UB_0034_01.PAC</Model>
</Conditional>

Thank you so much!
I tried this workaround and it worked well!Now the Kibelius of my witch have only one layer clothes.

What is the .dds for this one? And do I put that number is place of PEW_02_UB_0005.pac (grunil set) for example? I feel like it wasnt explained, i've read everything three times. And in the future how can I view which model goes to which .dds so I wont have to ask? Sorry about all the questions, ty!

how does one go about getting the base dds files (ie the actual full armor dds files) from the game files? I've been having a lot of fun modding your mods but i'd also like to mess around with some of the costuems you havent gotten to as well. I just dont know how to get those files.

I have no idea sorry, I just work with the DDS files directly. However there are a large number of those codes with matching images on this topic Black Desert - How to Swap Armors Costumes and Weapons which should help you.

The Ranger Ignis costume is made up of:
374833862.dds
1908889755.dd
550419656.dds
2717508676.dds
1295731765.dds
2872329354.dds
1317877797.dds

The rest of your questions I don't understand sorry.
My mods pack is exactly as it says, a pack of mods, it's not a catalogue where you simply click on one and say "I want that one".
Each armor/costume has varying amounts of files belonging to it, and in some cases files are shared between more than one armor/costume.

how does one go about getting the base dds files (ie the actual full armor dds files) from the game files? I've been having a lot of fun modding your mods but i'd also like to mess around with some of the costuems you havent gotten to as well. I just dont know how to get those files.

Ray Wing's excellent Resorep tool isn't just for dropping mods into BDO, it can also capture textures for you.
It's all explained in the instructions on the Resorep topic [Tool] Resorep - Black Desert Online texture replacer
