scarecrow398 43 Posted December 15, 2011 hi, i was just wondering in anyone here has comeacross a no bullshit, complete tutorial to retexturing units already in the game, i've got to the stage of making the grayscales but after that it goes to diffrent videos either switching to vehicals or people using gimp over photoshop ect, ect and NONE of them seem to show how to finish them and replace the originals or how to redistrabute them as another unit. any help, tuts, ect would be appreaciated :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max power 21 Posted December 15, 2011 I'm not sure there is a unified set of steps to make artwork. I'm not sure what you mean by 'making the greyscales'. So what you need is help with: Finishing the texture creating a config making a pbo Is that accurate? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarecrow398 43 Posted December 17, 2011 yes, i've unpboed and converted the _nohq and _co files for the usmc grenadiers and im looking to change the textues but all the tuts i've found only go upto destaurating the nohq images and cutting out the armor and such.

PuFu 4600 Posted December 17, 2011 what do you mean by changing the texture? * Changing the maps/textures associated with a model? * Changing the existing pattern? your post is still not descriptive enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, I see, you're trying to use the nohq file as a cavity map... Well, I wouldn't do that, you get weird highlights. I would just use the blue channel as a cavity map, but that's just me. Anyways, I guess the next steps would be: 1. Take that desaturated nohq file and set it as a multiply layer 2. Paint a texture underneath it 3. ??? 4. Profit.

scarecrow398 43 Posted January 5, 2012 okay, i've changed by mind, does anyone know of a guide to make entire units from scratch, models, textures, configs, the lot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[frl]myke 14 Posted January 5, 2012 okay, i've changed by mind, does anyone know of a guide to make entire units from scratch, models, textures, configs, the lot? Well, taking note of the Sticky threads would be a start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
