I want to do a skin of vader's cape (or Dooku I don't care) However, I can't seem to find .tga files for him. Is it possible that the cape is part of his main .tga file? does anyone know?

you can find the tga files by looking at the msh file, you'll see a tga referenced, something like imp_inf_Vader.tga, which is indeed his main tga

sry I did not specify what I was looking for I want to edit his cape (since it does have its own .msh) but I dont know if his cape texture is linked to his main .tga file?

Do you want to make a new texture for the cape ?

yes however I would like to give a cape to another character but I don't know if this is possible without reworking the clones skin to fit a cape. is it?

yes you can put the cape on another character, look at vader's odf to see how to do this and experiment a little, you could try resizing it in the .msh.option file (use the forum search function if you don't know how to resize, if it's not here it's definately on psych0fred's board)

hmm the only problem is I want to make somethin like this http://sitesdesignedbysites.com/imperialguard1.JPG

since Im skining for a person I can't experiment with it. I want to change Vaders cape from black to red and then place it on my red skinned clone trooper. Is it possible that I give the cape it's own skin (meaning the cape has the red texture to it) and then place the red cape on the back of my clone trooper? would it work?

Yes. Yes it would.

It's simply a matter of getting your head around the tools.

"Red Clone Trooper with Red Cape", featuring Vader's cape and regular Clone Trooper plus apologies from me for the very bad (quick) paint job.

(btw, I noticed the trooper isn't wearing the cape on the unit selection screen, but I haven't figured out why)

sorry, I meant you should look at the assets and try to understand , for instance, which bit of vader's odf attaches the cape, then experiment by trying to copy it, then experiment further by making changes to it.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooo



I love those red clones

This looks great but have they been approved by George Lucas? lol

I mean were there actually units that looked like this somewhere in the EU? I assume we're still trying to maintain story continuity.

hey can you check this out?: http://www.gametoast.com/index.php?name ... 6&start=90

AHhhh Saturn you are great! thank you for providing me with a great example but plz if you would dont release the skin because it might not be to good for the person Im skinning it for. (also if possible could you send me the skin and stuff? or send it to Chamboozer, hes the one who wanted it ) thanks for your help

also how would I experiment with the odf? should I just look at it in game it would help if I saw the .tga file on your clone that you made. or would it be possible to just make a skin (just a a square in photoshop with red cloth textures to it) and the give to person. then he should be able to attach the skin to the cape and the cape to the character right? howd you edit the .tgas?

Ok sry for the double post but how would someone apply the cape to the character? The person is to stuborn to ask you Saturn

its not that im too stubborn but I like challenges and I want to figure itm out on my own.

^ok fine but I still would like Staurns help on this if you can figure it out tell me if Saturn posts before then just dont visit this topic until you have figured it out

Suuuuuuuuure u keep telling urself that Chamboozer. *cough* someones in denial *cough*

jk.

Hey there is nothing wrong with being in denial. As they say, ignorance is bliss. I've been in denial for quite some time. I still think I was the best soldier in the Army and still have dashing good looks. And that keeps me waking up every morning. As far as what buddha would do, he would either own stock in a fast food chain, other than subway, or in weight watchers, depending on which path of enlightment he took before buying the stock. (cause and effect):)

Like everything else, look through the odf's and try to follow through what's going on; then copy the relevant bits. That's why all the shipped assets are provided, so you can look and see how it was done.

Meanwhile, announcing for immediate download, a Red Clone Trooper With A Cape, available exclusively from satu... nah, only kidding.

I noticed the clone troopers little backpack thing does stick through the cape a bit, but then the cape is set to -nocollision. I don't know whether having collision switched on for the cape is a good idea, or would just kill your framerate.

Though the cape does look really cool when the trooper runs around; Anyone for a Batman mod ?

I sure there's a joke in there about pyramids and an Egyptian river


What would Buddah do? He'd eat all the pies, the fat f***er
