Tools/methods for resizing Hero Glow?

[lv99zephiroth]

I'm having trouble resizing Hero Glow for a project I'm working on. My goal is to create a custom mdx+blp set, using a resized glow instead of GeneralHeroGlow, so that the glow appears smaller. I've tried the following methods, mostly to no avail:

• Resizing and/or cropping the corresponding blp using drawing software(Krita).

• Scaling the model down in 3DSMAX and saving it as a new one. This yielded me a seemingly working file, but the glow doesn't show up in World Editor for some reason, even though I imported the assets exactly like before. Just clearly visible feet where the glow should be.

The big question is: what other methods could I try? Maybe some tool I haven't heard of yet? Any tips or tricks are much appreciated

The texture size has nothing to do with the geometry size, since texture coordinates use percentages (in the form of real numbers from 0 to 1), not absolute values.

You can either scale the geometry itself of the glow, or add a geoset animation that scales it down.

The former you can even easily do manually in MDL format, just need to find the correct geoset.

Yeah, I was under the impression it just scales them back up again. So what I should do is modify the geoset of say, General Hero glow? Any useful tutorial links for geoset modding? I'm a bit of noob here

Edit: Geoset does respond, so big thanks for the tip! Finding the right values is challenging, but I should have things covered for now
