how to upload texture packs for mods?
so I went to the calamity art server and looked in the assets uploads and people have some cool resprites and some upload their zip files with the sprites, how do I use those sprites in my game, if possible? In other words, How do I use a texture pack for the calamity mod, not just the normal game?

yea that is through the Terraria workshop, that's where all that is located
also calamitys texture pack can only be gotten through the calamity discord. #servers
I think, that's where i got it
nevermind its on the workshop too

so, if I use the normal workshop in tmod to change the sprite of yharims crystal(item from calamity) it'll change the yharim's crystal sprite?
so if you use things in the workshop, it affects mods too?
also sorry for the ping

yeah, just click the use resource packs and you turn things on. Don't know about that, maybe it if it specifically says it'll change it..

what I mean is, I have a zip file that has resprites for the calamity item, so if I use it through workshop, it will change the calamity item it's a resprite for?

thanks for the confirmation and help :D have a nice day
sorry for another ping, I am not very good with understanding files so do you know how I implement it? do I put the zip file in the resource packs folder or the images/sprites? I have been putting the sprites in there, do I need to restart Tmod first if I use the folder method?

resource packs and yeah it needs to be exited and restarted for things to show up.

I am wondering because I put the sprites in there, then restarted and the sprites had not changed, and I don't really know what I did wrong since I'm new to uploading textures, these aren't my textures/sprites, someone else's I wanted to use for my personal experience

and I am trying to have the DOG boss change but it didn't change so I did something wrong, I just dunno what I did wrong
sorry if I'm just being stupid, I just don't know how this works lol
also if I try to go the documents folder in the users folder, it's empty, but the my PC documents folder has the Tmod things

I see, thank you
one more question, do you know how I can find the terraria calamity sprite sheets so I can use the steps in that guide to help me know the sprites would work? the sprites need to be the same res as the originals and have the same name, or should I ask the calamity server?
just an extra thing, I am sure I don't need it

no I'm afraid that's probably content that only the calamity devs have access to , i think
