Finally got the game to load my texture...and it looks terrible.

 

Looks like I'm starting over from scratch. Still, I think I've figured out how it works, so...progress?

 

What are you trying to do?  I'll help if I can.

Joyce, and anyone else that wants to load up the alpha channel but doesn't know how (in PS): Way up, in all tabs, go to Window -> Channels - this should show the RGB colors but it hieds the alpha layer. This window opens (in my PS) at the same as layers but in other tab -> click -> hide all layers but alpha. To me this shows a White layer that goes all over the armor. If I understood the posts above mine, this in a _t (tint) map gives that shine. Try coloring the "naked" skin layers in the alpha also black.

I found a solution to the banding issue with shadows.  I changed the shadow quality to medium but left everything else at Ultra/Fade Touched.  I'm also using SMAA, Bloom, HDR & Dither in SweetFX.  

The nostril piercing still needs a bit of work but the lip piercings look pretty good.

You actually haven't gotten rid of the banding, just hidden it with less detailed shadowing. The banding I believe here is caused by the fact there are three spotlights casting on the player, two of them have a brighter intensity than the third, and this is where the banding appears. I have tried to modify the lighting to make it more consistent, but so far my changes have not been accepted. May just be due to the state of modding at the moment, or me not doing something right, will keep at it.

When painting the texture on the diff map, how far over do you go? Should I include the blurred edges that are around the original texture? Dumb question, but I noticed some seems on my last one.

If you want to know for sure, import the mesh into 3dsmax, and render off a UV map, and overlay that on top of your texture, that way you can see where the borders are.

Depends on what you are doing I guess, for my complexions I only did the face and left the scalp and neck alone, I hate seams... They are so tedious to make right.

Just want to share my progress on the eyebrow set I am working on, I hope it's going good for everyone in their making of mods!

I don't know why this is happening but complexion 2's lips have changed to the bumpy ones complexion 1 has.

Since some people had problems with the normal map, I had to re do it, so I took the lips from the other one, if you still haev the old file, and it worked for you, you can switch back.

 

Heading to bed now though, nighty night

Oh, I know.  I didn't mean it as a fix, fix.  I just meant it's away to get them to stop showing.  They're extremely annoying when trying to test alterations to the facial texture.  

 

I hope that you're able to figure it out.

I over wrote it and I can't find it in the thread. Do you have a copy of it?

I hope so too, I want to just set it up with some kind of neutral lighting, rather than the three rather severe spot lights they have now. I also experimented with trying to get the chargen screen to appear in other places, and I was successfully able to get it to load via the World map (by overwriting another location). But it completely spazzed out and turned my character to a male, and forced me to reselect my class, then it just plocked me in the chargen level with no ability to move, so progress.

I have it, Porcelyn. Look for it in our shared DropBox folder. :-) Oh, did you get my email about using Cheat Engine to make an armor look like Kamael's Jammies?

I'll have a look. Gmail is supposed to forward to my hotmail but it never does so I forget to check it a lot. Thanks.

[HarmanK]

as soon as I fix the normal map, it'll be up on Nexus, I promise

Marry me !

[Elfyoth]

 

well. the buttons aren't there anymore but, now she looks like she has golden skin :S

 

I want it !! *_*

 

Golden skin is exactly what I look for, not to pale not to dark, what skin tone is it? I mean that this skin tone is a mod right? Have you chosen that skin tone for your mod or you didnt? Or it showed up? Btw looks amazing and cool!!

[Joyce]

Marry me !

sadly, I'm already married to Thane Krios... and Fenris... and Cullen xD
