Replacing default boots

[madman77]

Because EA forgot to make branded boots unlockable for Virtual Pro, I decided to replace default ones with some nice Nike/Adidas stuff. But I have noticed that all EA boots use only one bump! Other boots have separate bumps, even if they're identical.
So only chance is to use one bump, e.g. Nike Vapor and upload only Vapors in all colors?
Do you think it would be possible to change somehow game db to make it use different bump for specific textures?

File structure in data3.big looks like that:

shoe_0.rx3
shoe_0_0_textures.rx3 <-green EA boots texture
...
shoe_0_17_textures.rx3 <-red EA boots texture
shoe_0_textures.rx3 <-one bump for all EA boots colors

shoe_211.rx3
shoe_211_0_textures.rx3 <- black Nike texture
shoe_211_textures.rx3 <-bump for black Nike
...
shoe_212.rx3
shoe_212_0_textures.rx3 <-white Nike texture
shoe_212_textures.rx3 <bump for white Nike, identical with nr 211 bump

Thanks for the info. I think it's completely retarded that we cannot unlock brandboots for Virtual Pros...

Ta-da!

Nike Vapor bump doesn't affect default textures.

How you do it?

I think about bump-texture. It is same for all EA Boots

Yes. But i didn't care about the EA boots. So i replaced bump and effect texture with Nike Vapor and for all boots I have unlocked so far I uploaded Vapor textures in different colors (from this thread). Other EA boots have Vapor's bump, so they look kinda weird, but it doesn't bother me at all.

You should change the boot name in DBM 11
