As its name implies, Texmod utility for texture modifications or simply TexMod is a free video game utility program that allows you to find, save, and modify textures in video games. A graphics modding tool, you can use TexMod to edit video game textures that use Direct3D 9. This type of utility program is highly important when it comes to installing graphic patches in your games. TexMod is a lightweight application optimized for only a few functions, but it’s easily one of the most widely-used texture utility programs around. However, users with issues about the app might have a hard time getting it fixed as the developers are not too active in patching up. 

Don’t be deceived by looks

A mod, which is short for modification, is an alteration program or file developed by players or fans of a video game. Mods change one or more aspects of the game, like how it looks or behaves in terms of gameplay and such. Mods can range from small changes and tweaks to complete overhauls of its mechanics or visuals, and they can extend the replay value and interest of the video game. 

One of the popular types of mods is the graphics mods. As the name suggests, these mods will usually change the look of an in-game asset instead of creating an entirely new asset. To make graphics mods, you’ll be needing a graphics modding tool, like TexMod. TexMod has a pretty straightforward user interface for quickly getting to work. However, it doesn’t have a built-in tutorial, and you’ll need to do your research to figure out how it works. 

This utility mod has three modes you can use, namely Package Mode, Logging Mode, and Build Mode. Package Mode lets you add package files to a list and load them into the selected game application. Logging Mode, on the other hand,  lets you choose several testing options for your installed package files. Lastly, Build Mode lets you create package files by choosing loaded mod files. TexMod is great for installing graphics fixes in games, but it’s not an easy program for beginners to use.
