TF2 Emporium 49 - Games - Facepunch Forum

[QUOTE=Old Hermit;37931396]Alright, so what would I have to do to the texture file in order to edit within the alpha layer?[/QUOTE] Get whatever VTF it is from the GCF, load it in VTFEdit, export the TGA somewhere convenient, then load the TGA in Photoshop and look in the Channels tab to the right of the Layers Tab, in there will be the RGB channels along with the fourth channel, the Alpha. Just select that channel and make your edits there. Save the TGA, reimport it into VTFEdit, save as VTF, and put it in your TF2 installation. Voila.

OH, wait. I'm an idiot. First rule of photo editing: Alpha is how transparent something is. Well, now I just feel silly. All I had to do the whole time was set the opacity to 1%.

Are you sure you understand what you're trying to do?

[QUOTE=Demon!;37931460]Are you sure you understand what you're trying to do?[/QUOTE] I believe so. It's working in HLMV, and the alpha layer shows up in VTFedit, so I think I did it right.

PROBLEM WITH BLENDER (using v2.63) I am trying to make an LoD. When I merge a vertex that is on a seam with another vertex, the uv grid messes up and all verts on the uv grid that represent the vert on the seam are welded together. Does anybody know what is causing this or how to prevent it? Before merging: [img]http://puu.sh/1bRRT[/img] After merging: [img]http://puu.sh/1bRS7[/img]

Yep, I got it working. Goin to bed now. Oh, and thanks a ton Demon and Lone Spy, you guys really helped me out.

Fuckin page peons... Thoughts on this? (yes I know its a bit early) [img]http://puu.sh/1bUjR[/img]

i thought it was a back item

I guess the consensus earlier was that I should keep posting concepts, but better mind my attitude. So as a gesture of goodwill, I have in my salomonian wisdom decided to allow your unworthy eyes the honour of beholding this divine masterpiece.

Small request. Make the Battery Bandolier multi-class. It could replace either the Ornament Armament or Professor's Pineapple. I'll probably request mods that I've seen the community want, like multi-class Battery Bandolier, or that combines styles, or something.

[QUOTE=Sharc;37927299]Can't recall but was someone interested in making this? [img]http://i.imgur.com/fBmdF.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] worked on it and made some of my own adjustments [IMG]http://puu.sh/1bVq2[/IMG] what do you think

I find it a little too shiny and a tad dark. Not bad otherwise.

[QUOTE=Ducksink;37933003]worked on it and made some of my own adjustments [IMG]http://puu.sh/1bVq2[/IMG] what do you think[/QUOTE] Amazing! The whole "greaser" culture is a pretty nice idea, someone should make a set out of it.

Altered the model slightly and changed the fur colour: [IMG]http://puu.sh/1bW1K[/IMG] [IMG]http://puu.sh/1bW26[/IMG] Not sure whether to make the jumper paintable or not.

It's inevitable that someone will paint it lime or pink because they have the option to. It might look amazing in other colors. I think there was a discussion some time ago about the same thing.

You don't understand. Lime will RUIN that colour scheme. That IS a legitimate reason not to make it paintable.

I think the sweater is a little plain and could use some faint lines running down it or something.

Of course, if Miles would like to make it paintable to show us what it would look like, I suppose that only then could a concrete judgement be made, but as it stands now, I really like it this way.

There's not enough Cream Spirit nowadays.

Possible teamcolours on the jumper: [IMG]http://puu.sh/1bWqJ[/IMG] [IMG]http://puu.sh/1bWst[/IMG] Should they be more teamcoloured, should it be non-teamcoloured like before or should they be kept? Still basecolours.

[QUOTE=ThatSprite;37933495]You don't understand. [B]Lime will RUIN that colour scheme[/B]. That IS a legitimate reason not to make it paintable.[/QUOTE] Well then. I know I'm bad at picking colors but you don't have to be THAT rude about it [sp]yes I know you were talking about the lime paint[/sp]
