Maybe WIP - Egypt Pack for ADSU

[Maxx]

If you need tips on shadowing grap a brush at about 60-70% hardness and completely black color. Make it oppacity 5-7% and simply paint shadows untill they fit your likings

thx I`ll try that today

 

[Maxx]

Smells like a good time for a small update:

I added the shadows to breast chain mail using that opacency trick (thx rex), made her skirt also a chain mail and her back armor also golden.
Her boobies also got some golden stuff for better fitting.
Currently I`m a little bit unsure what would fit best for that cloth on front of the skirt, but maybe I`ll make a similar texture like romans used to have on their armors. Let`s see what fits most in the end.

Of course there are many detail changes left to do, but first I want to make the design and than the tweaks

tbh I don`t have a good idea how the legs should look like but I`m sure the inspirations will (hopefully) come in the end


here are some pics:

The breast plate looks a bit bland now, perhaps some jewels imbedded in the gold?

This is worth considering, I`ll see what I can do

 

[daloonie]

You're getting pretty good at this MaxX

Anyways if you kept the lower parts of the breat plate and only used that round gold texture on the upper parts, straight below the boobs. I think I'd look a bit better
Also that gem looking thing you made gold. Make it a complete gem, red or blue would be nice imho.

Red and white cloth or blue and white cloth with gold wouldn't be a bad guess for the front cloth?
I got a great pic showing nice white cloth, from Fable.

How about the gem changes colour depending on the team;
Red Team: Yellow Gem
Blue Team: Red Gem
Green Team: Blue Gem
Yellow Team: Green Gem
DM Skin: Diamond

I don't quite get the color combinations.

 

[Maxx]

thx 4 the compliment

today I tried a few things out but abandoned them imidiately, obviously not a good day for skinning

thx for the great ideas guys, I`ll see what I can do @ weekend! :tup:

For the moment I have tried Thanatos` edited model and masked out the shoulder plates for a better fitting.

The first ingame tests were promising

 

[daloonie]

Oh god. Of all the stock faces in the game Lauren is the WORST evar!

Seriously it's just pure bad skinning.

Anyways looking kindda funky. I'd go with the other model though. Looks better IMO.

 

[Random Elite]

I don't quite get the color combinations.

They cycle, I started with the 1st team (red) having the last colour jewel (yellow), then it went on like that, the next team having the previous team's colour jewel.

And as DM has no team, I thought a neutral colour wou8ld be most appropriate, so a diamond was chosen.

It's not going to stay with Laurens face, MäxX just wanted a less manly looking head to skin His friend's face onto:

Now compare Laurens head to the source pic on the left.

That is why he requested it, isn't that right MäxX?

 

[daloonie]

Yeah I know, still, egyptian with a pony tail? Just isn't right IMO.

I still hold up my comment about Laurens face.

Lauren`s face won`t stay in the end I`m thinking of making one skin for the standart model and the crowned one for my friend. She just wanted to have such a crown and that ponytail, I didn`t ask why Of course a hairstyle like Diva or Memphis would be more "realistic"

Hm, I could give her a bio straightly from carneval (she dressed up as egyptian) to the tournament for some sick reasons, i don`t know exactly

With 2 egyptians all should be happy

Sounds like a nice idea to me, I`ll definitaly try it out

....

Yap, she wanted to have such a crown....If women want to have certain things it`s better to simply give them that stuff without any questions to avoid troubles
The model works good in game but seems to need the MaxxRequest.utx-file to work, I did include the textures to my tsb.utx (I think that pack will be called Team Star Blade in the end) and then the model couldn`t been loaded. When I copied your utx back and still left my textures in my utx it worked.It`s no major issue, but I just wanted to tell you.
Nice job on the model thx again

Wait I know it now, she is not a real Anuban and started her career in the Merc Team Supernova. In a battle against an egyptian team she fell in love with Condor and joined their team.
That would explain why an egyptian woman has a ponytail

This turns out really nice, I agree with rex you`re are getting much better now! Keep it up for my Stefanie Skin you promised to make me for UT2k7

I really like that skin, IMO ponytailedversion looks nice and better than the "original" one - so 2 skins for all tastes would be cool

The cloth in white should look great -secondes rex-, maybe you should make the 2nd golden part of her chestarmor also a white cloth, is a little bit too much gold -secondes rex once more-

I also would make the middle thing a jewel -secondes rex a third time-, maybe you could make a tribal or just egypt stuff shining throug it?

And don`t forget to make the chainmailskirt a way that the underwear can be seen a little bit -secondes klasnic this time-

I also like the idea with the TC-gems -secondes random elite-

Hm, obviously I had many things to second....

Keep it up, I definiatly will d/l this pack, great Egypt packs are rare

I have spoken with Thanatos and he said thats probably because he has referenced the textures on the animation file when he imported it (to see if it worked) all you need to do is open the animation file click on the "+" symbol near skins then on the "+" symbol near material and assign yours.
Save the package, remove MaxxRequest.utx and test it. Tell me or Thanatos if you are still having the same problems...

thx 4 the tip I`ll check it out this weekend :tup:

 

[Maxx]

This weekend I didn`t had much time 4 skinning but finally I was still able to try out some further things

It was more a coincidence, but playing around with some effects I made a texture which could be used as breast armor.
It goes nice with the backside IMO and adds some additional egypt flair to her.
I also reworked the thing in the middle to make it more look like a gem.

well, here are the pix

 

[UTGirl]

armor looks great :tup: now this really becomes a fresh and new skindesign!

you should definitaly add shaders to make the gold even more shiny in the end

I`ve tried making shaders for my first skinpacks but was unable to make it right.
Well, maybe I`ve more luck this time

 

[daloonie]

Check my tuts MaxX

Anyways looking rather good now. How about a short sleaved chainmail suit?
