ok so it was a skin problem as i said lol, i changed the placements of them in your texture. although it is a dds file now(i dont have blp editing program), not sure how it works with the the older version, i think the same? lol regardless im sure you prob a blp converter if you need to convert, took a picture of it in the studio here too, i think this is how it should be? let me know

IT looks bit odd, i tired IT myself its very confusing to correctly put the body Parts. IT should look similar to this. (Right hobbit)

i noticed your message, theres the orginal skin, i think you could make it so model uses face, hands and feets from the orginal skin and just change outfit if that works, like this its also less work


i realise the skin might not excatly match the merry, but if u can make it somehow similar to photo i posted eralier it would be nice, i really need to give merry a outfit of rohan soldier. if u know lotr then u should know what i need

also dont do the sword helmet and the shield, and also merry doesnt have a cape on his model so it might be bad idea to use cape skin on the back. hmm idk how to solve it maybe use same skin for the back as for the chest if it will look good?

ah i see well looks like it is from that model, so i dont think you have the right meshes for this texture to work
this one here has the the part you want on the body, but his mesh is not right for the texture to wrap properly.
so i think your 'sol' out on this one mate. lol i dont know what to do about it.

When u mąkę new one screenshoot if u can because i cant use computer for few days so i will Die of curiousity
ofc, so yea you cant really put a different type of texture on something different, it really wont look right, the meshes and stuff. but i modified original diffuse and got something that is pretty decent i think, well it doesnt look bad anyways lol. so maybe this will work for you?, otherwise you will need different model parts lol
