Character Texture Update

[Nysus]

Updates! Joyelle has started helping and has completed the Wood Elf male leather armor. I've also completed the Kedge robe - just the SMR left now and all robes will be done.

This is something I may chip into - however I don't have photoshop and I have GIMP instead.

I'm guessing the PSD files that are being recompiled are for master editing if needed.

So, is the .xcf format OK?

I'm not very good at photoshop but I made ogre male textures bigger and put some filters on.

Wish I was better at this stuff.

I'd be willing to work on some of these in my spare time if it would help.

A:Extract the character textures S3D file using S3DSpy (global_chr.s3d and global4_chr.s3d)
Open file in Photoshop
Incease size by 400%
Clean up what you can by bluring and smudging
Rebuild the pieces you need (This is the long hard part)
Save File As... Bitmap + PSD
Repackage global_chr.s3d using the bitmaps and S3DSpy
Check in game
Rinse, Repeat

I know I'm late to this thread (I'm new here), but I thought I would point out a good technique that I've used to clean up pictures that might work for texture files.

• Open the image in PS
• Increase size by 400%
• Copy the layer
• Add a subtle gaussian blur to the top layer - might need to play with the settings, but generally 1px is good
• Set top layer to "Soft Light" and that's it

On pictures taken with digital cameras, this will remove the artifacts and weird colored pixels that the camera creates - making the colors and lines smoother. You can also over-do it a bit to get that Glamour Shots look.

And the important part, if this process works, you can simply use the batch function in photoshop to do the same process to all of your textures, saving infinite time.

We are not talking about pictures of your girlfriend lol. There is a TON of work involved in what they are doing.
