Not sure if I can make this one, I will only know about 18:00 Saturday.

 

[Martin Bulgin]

Anyone want to knock a skin up for me

Anything will be ok as long as it's suitable for the championship...................................anyone

 

[Tim Ustica]

What game is this for?

 

[Nico Major]

give it a try

 

[Nico Major]

We do a hiking trip with the soccer team that Saturday, but I think I can be at home for the race. If not you know why ...

 

[Bob Hutchins]

Anyone having problems with this track. When trying to load it, it gives texture error. DL Monza and all alright with that track, any clues?

 

[Nico Major]

works well for me - maybe you should try different texture qualities? I think I have mine set to "low".

 

[Ivo Simons]

Works oke here. Just tried some different settings and got no error.
We raced this track alot also.

 

[Magnus Dahlgren]

It's the Alpha channel Georgios. Pure white = 100% reflectivity, black = 0%

Either that or you are not saving the .dds in the right format. You need to choose DXT5 (interpolated Alpha)

Hmm.. I get the same as Georgios despite saving in DXT5 with interpolated alpha ? :/ Also I cant find the alpha-layer in PS and the car looks too shiny when in game.

 

[Ivo Simons]

Can you try to save it in DXT3?

 

[Bob Hutchins]

Ok, will look into it @ my end. Thx.

All working now, did a re-sync & it worked after that. Nothing else changed so far.

 

[Magnus Dahlgren]

I have tried with DTX5 interpolated alpha,DXT5_NM using DXT5, DXT3 explicit alpha, DXT1 withouth any alpha and with 1 bit alpha and the result is still the same albeit with some minor differences in matte/shiny-ness(still reflections of the original Mclaren skin), as I wrote before what baffles me is that there is no alpha-layer to be found? Maybe I need to update something? I use PS CS3, or is it the dds-plugin that needs to be updated?

 

[Erik Tveit]

Magnus reduce the opacity. That will make it less shiny.

 

[Josh Barton]

Magnus reduce the opacity. That will make it less shiny.

How do you do that? ive had similar problems with skinning in the past, so this seems like a good time to ask

 

[Fortunato Fiorito]
