Tutorial: Making Pixel-Perfect Skintones

<< < (2/3) > >>

miros1:
For outfits, I think you'd have to import the alpha as well.

BeosBoxBoy:
You can extract the PNG without a separate alpha - then edit and build in DXT3 format (this DXT format supports transparencies and doesn't require a separate alpha since it is automatically created by the transparent PNG)

great tutorial thank! but how do i know which image i am opening? for example, i open an image which is a face, how do i know its the adult or teen face? it doesnt matter if i replace for example the female teen face.bmp by the adult female face.png as long as they look the same and matxh the body?

natalie168:
I dont think it matters if they're the same colour, all my skins use the same face for all ages, although i've only ever made 1 skintone :D i just pasted the face over each age, i hadn't seen this tut until just now.
 
BTW, does this mean the same as basically removing saturation marks???
To get a nice colour i use alot of saturation, which looks good on paper but in Body Shop it just shows pixelated patches in places which looks rather unnatrual.

BlooM:
a method Yakov once told me:
Choose ''save for web'' and save as a 24bit png when editing skintonefiles.
Import that png with dds tools in simpe.
