Here's a step by step guide on how to dump textures.

First of all create the wrestler with the colour combinations that you want to replace or go to whatever it is that you want to replace.

Create a savestate (Press F5)

Go into "Options" then "Configure Graphics Plugin"

Click on the "Texture Filters" tab and click "Dump textures to files" and click on "OK".

This will enable the dumping of textures.

Load the savestate that you created before (F7).

The textures will load up and as soon as the state finishes loading up, all the textures will be dumped.

To view the dumped textures go into the "Plugin" folder in the root of your emulator folder and open up the "texture_dump" folder.

Open up the "WWF No Mercy" folder located inside to get a bunch of folders like this.

Open up "ci_by_png" or "ci_bmp" to view the dumped textures.

I follow exactly the instructions, and the textures indeed dump. But when I try to open that folder in photoshop - the program closes up and throws me away. I tried to copy that folder to my desktop and to reach it from there. This worked fine, but when I returned it with the changed textures back to the WWF no mercy folder - the changes disappeared.

PJ64 version 1.6
windows vista

Setup where I had my original problem. I have somewhat solved this. I posted this in the help section first which was wrong and that still makes no sense to me.

C:\users\[myusername]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Project64 1.6
has these folders
A. Plugin
B. Save
this and other non folders ... Project64.cht

C:\users\[myusername]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Project64 1.6\save
has WWF No Mercy.fla

also
C:\users\[myusername]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Project64 1.6\Plugin
has 3 folders in it and a Rice file of some sort (AppData is a hidden folder)
A. hires_texture --- has WWF No Mercy folder inside but has no WWF Legends stuff in it
B. hires_texture ---- nothing in it, I deleted this folder, no longer exists
C. texture_dump ---- WWf No Mercy file which has these folders with images inside BUT NOT the attire images which would make the legends have the correct clothing & look.
- ci_bmp
- ci_bmp_with_pal_crc
- ci_by_png
- png_all
- png_by_rgb_a

D. RiceVideo6.1.0.ini.tmp ---- not a folder not sure what or why it's there.



A DIFFERENT PATH (other went C:\ USER)
C:\program files\project641.6\
It has MSVCP71.DLL .... msvcr71.dll..... BMGlib.dll..... BMGLibPNG.dll
also Project64.cht .... other stuff

C:\program files\project641.6\Plugin
has I think all the Rice video parts needed
A. RiceVideo .dll
B. RiceVideo6.1.3DX9.dll
C. RSP.dll
D. RiceVideo6.1.0
E RiceVideoDocs

C:\program files\project641.6\Plugin ......also has
A. hires_texture .... which has
-WWF No Mercy folder which has these folders and all the subfolders of Legends rar
- Arenas... Menus.... Misc.... WWF Superstars
B. texture_dump ..... has these folders which all have nothing in them
- ci_bmp
- ci_bmp_with_pal_crc
- ci_by_png
- png_all
- png_by_rgb_a
- WWF No Mercy ...I made this although it doesn't seem to be needed

C:\program files\project641.6\save
has this inside
-WWF No Mercy.mpk
- WWF No Mercy.fla

SOLUTION:
C:\users\[myusername]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Project64 1.6\save
has WWF No Mercy.fla <<<< Problem
The WWF No Mercy.fla in the download was part of the problem It made Hogan and other characters look like a woman with odd attire.
As far as I could tell only WWF No Mercy.pj5 gave correct body types and attire. This save started you out in a match but I made my OWN save back at the main menu.

2ND part
C:\users\[myusername]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Project64 1.6\Plugin\
hires_texture\ WWF No Mercy ----I copied and pasted arenas etc here

DIFFERENT PATH
C:\program files\project641.6\Plugin\
hires_texture \WWF No Mercy ----- I copied and pasted arenas etc. in here

I needed to paste in both which I don't think I did before AND they WOULD NOT dump correctly like this either.

NOW I have correct looking wrestlers except for maybe a few like Iron Sheik but I'm guessing he was a non complete character.

I'd advise anyone esecially newbies to NOT dump or use mempacks through the game or pj64 system or controls. Instead COPY & PASTE mempacks, arenas, menus,Misc, WWF Superstars folders, etc to the correct areas. So much easier and straighforward.

I have windows vista which has virtual memory as does windows 7 I believe. Not sure if virtual memory is the problem but I'd advise people to use Copy & Paste method if you do. If you have any other operating system as long as you know correct path then do it. I don't know the paths because I really have very limited computer knowledge.

C:\program files\project641.6\save
- WWF No Mercy.fla ---this file does not need to go here or any .pj save do not need to go here

ONLY needs to go in this path IF you have a good .fla save which I did not.
The .pj saves go here as well
C:\users\[myusername]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Project64 1.6\save


I hope this solves problems for anyone else out there. I'd guess that others have problems like mine but do not ask because they get no answer or flamed.

i am actually very new.. but i got the mod to work. all my wrestlers look like the org wrestlers though but all the pictures are changed to 2016 superstars. the mod i got was wwe 2k16. i put all the right files in the right places. is there something i missed? i have all the PNG files for the wrestlers to be made but i have no idea how to add them.. then i see this and im wondering, you can dump the old pics of wrestlers but how do you add the new pics in from the mod folder of the wrestlers we are creating?
