Texture Service

Do your textures look a bit bland and boring?

Do they look childish and cheap compared to what came with the game?
God I love alliterations

Well, fear no more!

As I will lend my services for the Greater Good, for FREE!

Just drop your dds files here with a few screenies of the models and directions on the dds what is where and it'll come out dandy (not that much experience skinning, but I learn quick enough)!

Ask, and it'll be delivered!

Now with normal maps too!

Here's some samples of my Photoshop capabilities:

I dunno, just a file from which I can figure out what goes where and how on the model. Like I said, I've got little to none 3d texturing experience.

I have a rather large job for you if you are willing to take it on. All the bravil (interior/exterior) needs to be retextured to redwood. Mainly the reason is so that it doesn't look so run-down, but also because I am using that architecture for Arenthia.

I was hoping to get it done myself but I have no skill in texturing something that large. And this would really help the Greater Good

Eh? Is that a right thing to do lorewise? But ok, I'll see what I can do there. No idea how much maps that's going to be.

-Just checked, 96...I dunno I can do that on my own...

--Although, I only need to do the wood few ones, and put a quick colour edit on the stones(make it more mossy)

For the texture to be applied you need to get them into NifSkope, so NIF I'm guessing, to make the texture I use a program called Deep Paint 3D, although most people use Photoshop or GIMP.

To use those last ones you need to make a UV map and texture that. Well I think thats the jist of it, coming from a guy who never textured that way before.

Sure just send the needed stuff....no obj. files please, can't work with those. Maps with set out polys and a nif would be terrific.
