John what is SysWOW64. where is it located? and I found this folder called System32 what would happen if I delete it. can it be restored. sorry for the question by the way, I am a noob in these Music modding stuff

SysWOW64 is a folder in the Windows folder, you can get there by going into the C drive(C:\Windows)

System32 is an essential Microsoft Windows system directory that contains system files as well as program files that allow your OS and apps operate properly, if you delete the System32, multiple system errors will spring up and your Windows may even fail to boot properly and the only way it can be restore is by reinstalling the Windows OS, however by doing this, you will lose all your personal files and apps, which is not a desirable outcome(it's best not to do this)

Hi there, I've got a problem with texture inserting. It works fine on moded models (like KH2 Sora over Cloud or Fire Emblem Lyn over Lighting) but whenever I try to change the actual Dissidia character texture, face gets these strange artifacts/noise. What's even more interesting, it looks fine in Noesis so I don't know what I screwed up exactly. Here's an example

ah I see it seem you didn't fully understand the infos inside "readme.txt" file properly: http://www.mediafire.com/file/e8ivkop7pyvl0ra/Dissidia_Modding_Suite_v_0.66_BETA.zip/file

to edit .GIM you need to convert it into .TIM2 not .png then open it using images and texture editor, set the editor interlace mode as BGR, customize it and convert it back into .GIM

yes, it's possible to save it as .mp3 and another audio file format. but before convert it to another audio format especially .mp3, LAME MP3 Encoder must be installed into Goldwave. the encoder can be automatically install if you have an active Internet connection when you edit and save .mp3 in Goldwave, however due to a change in GoldWave Inc. web server the encoder installation is no longer available for 5.70 or older versions of GoldWave, so you have to install it manually. the encoder can be downloaded from here: https://www.videohelp.com/software/Lame-MP3/old-versions

to install the encoder in Goldwave, download "lame3.98.zip" and extract it using Winrar, copy "lame_enc.dll" and paste it into Goldwave location folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\GoldWave. now open Goldwave then drag and drop your .wav with ATRAC3 132kbps and .at3 into GoldWave, in Goldwave go to the "File" tab and click on "Save as", in "Save Sound As" file selector click on the two drop-down list, choose the desired file extension and attributes then click on "Save"

beside making backup of the .iso by compressing it as .zip using WinRAR

you can also make backup copy of it using context menu

can the newer version of Goldwave convert .mp3 into .wav with ATRAC3 132kbps?

for .mp3 to .wav conversion only use v5.70 and the older version of Goldwave, v6.00 and latest revision version doesn't have .mp3 or other audio files to .wav conversion due to it different application function and coding: https://goldwave.ca/forums/viewforum.php?f=5
