Post by: apollo on November 03, 2007, 03:53PM

Hi,
I have made a couple of custom skins, if anyone is interested;

Sage [Current (Sort of)]

Angel [Ultimate]

Beast [Winter Furry]

NB: All the new skins are shown w/o outline, as I am currently only making skins with hideable outline. However, since these are based on XML2 models, you will need to hide the outline manually by modifying herostat.

Comments & Criticism Welcome,

Thanks,
Added a new Polaris skin to the first post.

Not really based on any particular outfit, basically just a Scarlet Witch recolour.

You can use Enchantress; I think it's a "better" model:

Wow! Impressive skins! Keep at it.

Thanks for the suggestion iammingy.
Does anyone know where I can find a version of the enchantress skin which I can edit, as I have downloaded the MUA-XML2 Skin Pack, but the skin included doesn't look nice in Texture Finder?

Thanks
Apollo

It would have been nice if we have the XBOX's MUA files...

You would have to use PS2 skins, which can be found below:

Quote from: Noelemahc on March 24, 2007, 12:04AM
Here's the first release:
http://www.marvelmods.com/noelemahc/PS2MUAstuff.rar

This includes EVERY model of the ACTORS directory present in MUAPS2. And a bonus (in the form of PSP's Code 219 (Super-Skrull Comic) - filtered and upsampled and stretched onto the Code 33 model which they share).
What this doesn't have:
- Code 70 (Sentinels)
- Code 102 (Arcade)
- at least one of the subskins for EACH monster model/
...

Based on the FAQ from the main site (link below), Enchantress is 2901.igb
http://marvelmods.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=43

You'd need Norrin Radd's PS2Skinner for importing and exporting the DDS'es:

Thanks for the info, iammingy, will see what I can do, though after reading through it once it seems rather complex!

Back to my first post and query about the black outline, I've put in the;
Multipart {
health = 0 ;
hideskin = xxxx_outline ;
}
but looking at Cyclops, there are several skins which quote the same xxxx_outline in the skin file and only one seems to be affected. I've tried using just the skin that keeps the outline on, but it doesn't do anything.

Any tips?

EDIT: I tried the same with Jean Grey, and it works better, but I have problems with the AoA Skins.
Also, herostat can't seem to take more than 5 Multipart commands. Any more than that and it
ignores them all. Has any one else found that?

Thanks
Apollo

Hi, back again.
Not had any luck with Namora using Enchantress base (have looked, but it isn't clicking)

In the mean time, I have made more skins, and added them to the first post.

C&C welcome,
Apollo

While he was a guest of Cloud Nine, Kurt's costume was damaged. One of the Warpies, by the name of Silkworm, designed a new one for him. It was very close to the original one but also had some new elements. [Excalibur (1st series) #63]

Awesome Angel skin! I was on the brink of requesting it when I saw this thread!

Post by: apollo on December 06, 2007, 04:29AM

Thanks for all the comments guys, much appreciated.

LOL, sorry about the Beast Xtreme Winter skin, will fix that now.
On a side-note, I'm still not convinced about the colour scheme for that skin, any suggestions?

where is the thread that explains who to make XML2 skins using NRskinner?

Title: Re: Custom Skins
Post by: Norrin Radd on May 02, 2008, 10:29PM

It is similar to using muaskinner except the format is a bit different. Assuming the models are from pc, use dxt3 format. If they are ps2 models, then use the ps2 format. There are examples here http://marvelmods.com/forum/index.php?topic=1224.0

Title: Re: Custom Skins
Post by: shadow on May 03, 2008, 11:08AM

Thanks Norrin, but I don't understand those instructions very well and that software (NRskinner) is not so familiar to me.

Is there other instructions for editing a skin?

Title: Re: Custom Skins
Post by: Norrin Radd on May 03, 2008, 11:26AM

Do you know how to find the offsets? Have you used muaskinner before? If not, this thread might have some answers http://marvelmods.com/forum/index.php?topic=1704.0
But i dont know what it is that you don't understand, so it is hard for me to help.
