SkinnerUI question....

Your offsets are wrong.

alright scratch that. T_T imma try to find it on my own. meanwhile im going to choose another model to practice on

Don't base your offsets on these ones....
I just posted that simply to show channel the format for a CFG file. You have A LOT more reliable offsets to work with in the TWO offsets centrals in this community.

im now in the part on how to import the edited bmp. im at a loss here.


here's what i've done. i just want to check out and practice. gave him a beard. okay here's where im at. i clicked import then chose the edited bmp then what now?

EDIT: i followed the offset you wrote because i just want to practice and get a feel on skinner. of course i never knew that those were not correct.

If this is so difficult (It shouldn't be; you just need some sleep ), then I am gonna play a little game with you... This is just a game to work out the logic in your mind.

Which button should you click in the window after you have clicked import? (This means the edited BMP is now in the IGB file)

A. Minimize - Minimizes the window
B. maximize - Maximizes the window
C. close - Closes the window
D. load IGB - loads an IGB file into SkinnerUI AGAIN
E. export - Exports a BMP
F. import - Imports a BMP into SkinnerUI AGAIN
G. accept - Accepts what you have done.
H. cancel - Cancels what you have done.

[Serph21]

ACCEPT! but for some reason in game it doesnt appear?

EDIT: check this out. i even made another edit of the bmp i colored the face of blade with bright green so that i can see the change when i import it. so there i imported the new edited bmp when it appears on the skinner i can see no change? what gives? i know the change should be seen in the skinner right?

[iammingy]

CORRECT!

The changes you made don't appear, you mean?

[Serph21]

yeah. the changes dont appear..

[Serph21]

i kind of saw what the problem is awhile ago i've read that the edited bmp should be 32 bit right? when i checked the properties of my edited bmp it's only 24 bit. is this the problem?

[iammingy]

I think this skin has another set of MIPs for the face. Try coloring his coat green and see whether it shows up in the game.

EDIT: 32bit or 24 bit... It doesn't really matter for these ones because you aren't using the alpha channel

[Serph21]

i recolored the coat but still when i import the image the changes never seem to show up? maybe this'll help the bmp is saved as 24-bit RGB 1 layer

I never got the chance to produce any 32-bit BMP before I got Photoshop CS2 and my old skins work fine.

How come the pic you uploaded is 600 x 600? It should be 1024 x 1024?

EDIT: Also, you need offsets from 1024*1024 all the way to 8*8!!! (divide dimensions by 2 in between)

[Serph21]

it's not in full size but it should 1024x1024. it's 1024x1024 on my pc. hmmm maybe i need to find another model to work on.

[iammingy]

Try these ones:

Serph21 I don't know if this will help but in the xml2 CFG I had to change to IGB,DXT3 and not igb,-DXT3 or they stayed the same.
