Basically a skin generator that takes bl&wh decal inputs and the masks them onto my existing textures - the generator will give a high level of control over wear, dirt color and a few other things Kualan likes this

Barricade24 Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 All righty. Barricade coming in with some observations and recommendations. 1) First the visor. For some reason this is the number on thing that is throwing me off. I think the main reason that is the angle of the T could be raised a bit. 2) The helmet fin could be a bit lower on both the front and back of the helmet. 3) I also noticed the middle line on the back of the helmet between the two dots is missing, but I'm guessing you haven't added that in just yet. Aside from those things, the primary shape and build is pretty much on spot. Langerd, krkarr and JAWSFreelao like this

Tempust85 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Is there a specific reason why you're not combining the armor into one 2048x map? Seems a bit excessive to have all of those texture sheets. Scerendo likes this
Scerendo Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Looks good thus far, very clean. You doing everything in 3ds Max? Is there a specific reason why you're not combining the armor into one 2048x map? Seems a bit excessive to have all of those texture sheets. Out of curiosity does JKA have a resolution limit for textures? I've always thought 1024* was the max?
