Title: help with texturing/recoloring
Post by: Care on February 19, 2009, 09:08:22 pm
With this outfit if you look into the mirror the texture is dark and velvety, but while looking straight on you see the normal texture what did I do wrong and how can this be fixed also the pants have somewhat of a red glow?

srry, i missed this one.
Wat you see is normal, its how the game handles shadows.
You will see the same when recoloring with bodyshop and using the f3 f5 an f6 keys while rotating with the mouse.

hmm, the last picture has 2 overlapping alpha's arround the waist i think or diffrent material settings.
But nothing you can fix with recoloring im affraid....
The outfit being darker at the mirror(at the bak) is normal tho.

That was some of my first stuff and was adding textures to the body~stdMatNormalMapTextureName and trying to figure out the multi mesh for miana adding more textures than needed or where they needed LOL... I have since figured it out Now all I need to do is conquer trying to add shoes to meshes WOW most likely not. :)

Changing shoes on mesh aint that hard but adding shoes to a (multi)mesh is a bit more complicated.
