VanAdrian you should try reskinning the canadian 50cal GMC truck in DMz's custom model thread, he even said someone should give it a go (as the current skin is...bleh :P no offense ofc) and I'm not demanding you do it, just a suggestion.

Hmm, sounds like someone's making a mod with canadians in it..
*just me trying to act like I don't know it already.*
Anyway Adrian, I think it's a good idea.
Hm okay i'll see what i can do
@CN
What would you like for your canadian truck ?
Gnigruh's grainy look ?
Vanilla texture look ?
The same one but with more details ?
Camo version ?
... or even a medical variant ?
A full engineer styled truck ?
A variant without canopy ?
Different markings ?
Definetely love this banana

I would like all of those! But I doubt you would be up to the challenge :P I would personally prefer a vanilla-like texture although still with the canadian markings on the sides like DMz's version has, whatever you prefer though I'm not your boss so just do as you please :P
Here we go !
Include a small fix for the ebps (wich was named "epbs" so it do not worked
Do not include the US truck or even the Gnigruh's texture, do not include the crew aswell as it do not include the original DMZ's textures, just the files needed to have what you can see on the screen

Don't forget to be aware of the credit list i give on the screen if you use it in a public mod, cause that's more than a cooperative work here haha
Hope you like
Hotter than hell. Good job.
I intentionnaly release this now, cause both Eli and DMZ did not respond about the permission ^^ I think that it's safe to release it cause it was originally made to be shared in the CMP, for public purpose then
So if there is any problem to share this here, just say it and then i'll remove the download.

Whenever I see this gun, this is what comes to my mind..
Good job mate, it looks incredible. Such a shame hungarians didn't have semi-auto rifles.
haha
Thanks but the bigger part of the work and the real new thing, then the scope less model, is from TD, so we all must thank him for this, i'm just a poor reskinner/distributor of his work
I think you did a good job on the canadian truck, looks good to me and will fit in my mod just fine
Then i'm glad that you like it
... and still thanks DMZ for those nice markings

Wow that's quite awesome dude, great job
thanks
But that's quite little things... and those aren't realy usefull or even needed for most of the people around here... anyway it's the only way i can help you for the moment ^^
I suppose it did occure to you that you used my tyres and my nrm spc and gls on that truck (Because they arnt relics) and then edited them. :/, Take a close look at relics tyres and relics duece nrm spc and gls :/ you might just see the differance. I dont mind just bloodywell say so or eveyone will use my shit and say its relics.
As for the markings British and commenwealth units carry a yellow Bridging circle with the width designation, in the case of a duce thats an 8, and unit maker on the front left of the bumper should be a 51 to match the back not yellow US vehicle designation plate. the ebps worked i havent looked into that but i suppose it depends if your using nhctov or not which is what i edited it for. As for the fixed nrm on the gun ring ??? you selected the green channel and clicked invert ??? . Amazing.
----------
Also can you skin from a UV map (From scratch) If you can pm me in BSS because i might have a few things that you can do.
@DMZ
Hey mate be cool ! If you dont want me to use your work just say it and i'll stop, i just want to help people and in no case i want to take your job and make it to the community as if it was mine... no, i respect the work of everybody.
You're credited for the most part of the work on the truck, just cause you did the most part, that's simple ^^
For your tires you're right, i took yours cause i though it was some reason why you made these instead of using Relics, and i don't say that tires where Relics, never... You only said that your texture should be improved, i did it... with some errors you mentioned about markings but he, everybody can make mistakes
Also for the gun ring i didn't fixed the normalmap this way
I realised that most of the custom normalmap around here were only a good green chanel but an alpha one wich is only the green chanel... in grey... a shame
So i took every original files from Relic for the alpha/grey chanel and for the custom one, as only invert color do a black and green tint at the end, i inverted colors + manualy edited the lighting to have the same result than Relic's part
I'm working with Paint.Net since the beginning mate, so for me it's more than hard to do a lot of things that you guys can do in few brush hit or layer addition ^^
I did everything in a way that you seems to miss DMZ, i wanted to help you and to give you some fix to improve your own files, that all...
About skinning from scratch, hm, i already said to Blackbishop that i never tried... it would be hard for me, but if you realy need help, as i have a few bit of free time for the upcoming week (after last exams on 25/26), i could give a try
I'll send you a pm at BSS, then we'll see
Yeah the way round that alpha channel problem is on the nvidia normal map filter select normalise, Then make an alpha from the red and the blue like normal. then all you do is copy that alpha to the origional green nrm, of course you then have to check red and green on that to make sure red didnt get inverted when the nrm was origionally made. But even if it did all you need to do is invert the red channel only. Problem i have is i have like 30 of my own to fix like that from a year ago when i knew no better, plus about 30 belonging to other peoples in between. nm ill get round to mine someday. I think halftrack and Xali and Slayer fixed a few anyway so at least thats some i dont have to do.
----------
Im not bothered about you doing them but the tryres and normal on them are off my ba 64, just check them when you pull them apart is all im saying.
well well ^^
If you want me to help you on your normalmaps i can give'em a try ^^
But i'm currently having a problem with a normalmap wich cause me a lot of trouble... already fixed near all the texture but still a part wich is too difficult for my poor skills...
Here you go, if you could be able to fix the original version it should be more than cool
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?95pfddron7f4xdb
For the truck texture : then i'll do another version with exclusivelly your original markings and with the original tires (or maybe modified GnigruH's one ^^).
Dont bother the tyres suite it
btw what part of the normal map is giving you troubble and can i have the diffuse so i can see what you are working with
Last edited by DMz; 23rd Jun 12 at 4:17 AM.
ok
got the dif, ive sent you 3 nrms back one an edited version of yours where a few parts have been painted and smudged out, a second completly new nrm with new alphas and red channel, and a 3rd similar to the first but with the pocket outlines removed. Youll have to decide which, or you can chop them up and use various parts and layers. If you send me any in future, remember its much easier for me to see what im doing if i have the diffuse aswell so i can see whats meant ot be bumped or inverted ect.
And anyone who wants them i will bother at some point to fix all my older nrms, assuming Van Adrian doesnt go through every model Eli and me ever did by then.
Thanks a lot for your help and your replies DMZ, and yeah, as long as i haven't all your models, i can't have fixed all your nrms haha
Sorry for the late reply but i was away from home
so i just tested your normalmaps a few minutes ago and i must say that it's wrong to my eyes... (don't get me wrong here, i'm not complaining or anything else mate, i'm glad you help me, but i must say it anyway
I should maybe have been more clear about the issue. When you look at Relic's normalmaps, the green chanel is different from the grey chanel, where colors are inverted and more important, where the lighting comes from another direction.
Look with this example :
The green chanel render a lighting from the back on this example, so the grey chanel is inverted + render the lighting from the left.
That's how Relic did his normalmaps, and that's how i did my normalmaps fixs for the missing nrm + how i did the pioneer's normalmap fix i sent to you... but as far as i'm working with Paint.Net it's realy hard to make a properly textured normalmap in CoH, and i succeed to fix the whole texture except the modified part of the body jacket (pouch + collar)... so instead of giving a green, ligh green and white tint when you open it in corsix's mod studio, you get a green and black texture only (wich mean less lighting detail when rendered ingame).
So what you did is good, but the alpha is totaly wrong.
By this i mean there is not even inverted colors + the lighting is from the same direction, so it means that the alpha chanel is only the green one in black and white.
As long as i not have the needed tools to do this, i can just request help from you DMZ, so here i'll not teach you, cause you're better than myself for near everything here, but for the normalmaps i think we should have some discussing together wich should help both of us into normalmap creation/fixing
The only thing needed for this normalmap in to take the custom green chanel made by Halftrack if i remember correctly (this nrm is used by a lot of skinpack around here, that's why i wanted to fix it originaly ^^) and take Relic's alpha chanel.
Then you just have to take the custom green chanel parts and paste'em into the grey one, here you have to invert colors and to give'em the correct lighting.
I did everything manually (yeah... fool job, but that's the only way i can make lighting another direction) but i fail on the pouch/collar part...
So if you can try to fix the normalmap this way it could be nice.
Anyway it's as a lot of other thing, we have to try 10 time before succeed
Hope you understood correctly what i meant mate ^^
Have a nice day
Adrien
----------
BTW here are my chanel... as you can see the grey chanel is good, only the pouch/collar part is wrong cause it's only rendered with inverted colors, not different lighting...
How the hell did you do everything manually with Paint.Net? Also, is there some kinda of filter for inverting colors and so forth? Because it's pretty handy for me to know how to do this properly.
haha
Yeah you can invert color, you can even make some sort of bumping.... but so so bad
So all what i can do is to copy the green chanel part i have modified, then make it black and white, then invert colors... And now i just have to take my day to manually change ALL the lighting on this part ^^
But Slayerknecht, Halftrack and DMZ already did very nice Relic styled normalmaps for their differents textures/models they released... there is still some normalmaps like this one wich need to be fixed anyway.
I'm currently trying to fix it myself, waiting for DMZ's answer
I dont need lessons thank you, and you might try looking at the last one i gave you which actually had a new alpha not the one i sent origionally with your own alpha on it. And seems were acting like teachers read this and you mght learn somthing.
http://blacksandstudio.com/forum/sho...92&postcount=2
In future dont ask for help again, i dont like people trying to make me look like a pratt when i send them 3 textures to play with. Oh and WP cos quess what , i cant be arsed full stop with even bother to post in here now .
I don't get that vibe from VanAdrian at all...He strikes me as being an enthusiastic member of the community that wants to share his resources and knowledge with others, test his ideas out, and help out where he can.i dont like people trying to make me look like a pratt when i send them 3 textures to play with.
Anyway, said my bit...I'm out :/
...
Then you get me wrong...(don't get me wrong here, i'm not complaining or anything else mate, i'm glad you help me, but i must say it anyway)
Why are you so angry against other people every time you're discussing with around here ?
I'm not here to teach you, you're 100x better than myself 0_o
But you must aggree that all your 3 normalmaps are wrong. Don't get it bad or sad or anything else... everybody make mistake or errors, especially myself, but here i can't use your normalmaps just cause their alpha chanel is not supposed to be used the way Relic designed it's own.
So i just don't want to make you look like a pratt.. why would i do this ??? No seriously i think you must stop to have those sort of reflection and should be more "cool" and accept what people says, especially from me as i never played the police when you got problems with Eli and cause i'm more than respect full of all the work you did. So please stay nice and take the time to read and understand correctly what i say.
We should be together to fight this normalmap problem instead of being ennemy, that all what i have to say. Sorry if you get wrong some of my sentences but i didn't feel like you, i respect you and didn't attack people over thread, that's out of my mind mate.
Thx Mirage Knight ^^
PS :
@DMZ
Thanks for the link but i already said that i can't do normalmaps the same way than yours, working only with paint.net is realy difficult.

People should remember to not let emotions override common sense. I see nothing that indicates any form of insult from VanAdrian, DMz. Take some time out, (have a Kit Kat?
I am an Iron Warrior! Iron Within, Iron Without!
I finally have a hard time retexturing manually the whole thing, but it should works correctly now
That's still not perfect but it's better than nothing
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?w6euibuhj8bxo4c
It will fix the normalmap for all people who use Halftrack's pioneer (from his v.3 skinpack or even earlier release) and all other skin pack who use some sort of pioneer's jacket like HTs (realistic skin pack v.6.1 for exemple).
VanAdrian, I know it can be difficult to remove color from particular channels in paint.net so might I suggest this plug-in as looking at the texture there is still color other than black on both the red and the blue channels: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?showtopic=14522
Also, things that are said in private should not be posted in your thread, directly at someone (it causes offence as it could be taken the wrong way).
@Beefy^
Thanks for the plugin mate, i'll take a look asap
oh and yeah you're right... it's my fault here, even if i though that it shouldn't take this way, anyway it will be my lesson for today
Cheers
Sorry for being so quiet this time but i've been a bit busy with my last exams... now it's finished, i'm freeeeeeeeeeeee !

I think I will go ahead and DL the skins for the HMG's, I really like how you have the non-covered vickers, but I hope they won't actually have this yellow-ish tinge to them ingame, would be sorta' weird...
yellowish tinge... ? what did you mean .
BTW for the american HMG, don't bother about their tint on the image
Anyway if some of you report me that the tint could be improved a bit i'll fix the texture and re-upload a new version
