Woah there Snaf man. If you must clear up some personal stuff and whatnot, go ahead. You don't have to place a map onto the rest of your problems. Go ahead. Take the month off.

only 2 ppl to do a entire map teams job, now that doesnt seem fair

SnaFuBAR · Post by **SnaFuBAR** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 10:29 am

these 2 guys are really good at what they do. and they both have incredible textures. i have no doubt that they can do what needs to be done.

Yeah, but it takes a lot of time and u have to use the right texture or it looks ugly. And if you could send me the latest bsp on aim, that would help

no doubt Katarn and CMDRs skinning abilities but still i mean... damn

CMDR Reservoir · Post by **CMDR Reservoir** » Thu Apr 07, 2005 6:46 pm

it really isn't any problem. Just some time is all that is needed. And I also need the BSP so I can do my portion.

Hey guys! Well i'm not exactly at home. I'm in the airport using public internet. Hopefully at my relative's house in Hong Kong they got internet so I can check out whats going on.
Cya,

hey i was just wondering the people that are skining are they bump mapping any of it? if not i can bump map the texture all you need to do is send it to me

SnaFuBAR · Post by **SnaFuBAR** » Fri Apr 08, 2005 8:18 am

yup, they are bumping it.

CMDR Reservoir · Post by **CMDR Reservoir** » Fri Apr 08, 2005 2:56 pm

This map will be bump mapped. I can crank out bump maps in a matter of seconds but thanks for the offer.

Supposing you just gray-scaled it....maybe you should do some editing after that.

CMDR Reservoir · Post by **CMDR Reservoir** » Sat Apr 09, 2005 6:15 pm

Grey Scale? The frick you talking about? I don't use grey scale. I use Nvidia tools and leave it like that. I have my own stratagies as far as bump mapping is concerned. I'm sure you do to.

The classic nvidia normal map filter. Still, you should clean them up after you do that because you get some unnecessary bumps due to different colors.

Very true. I use the blur to to make them more smooth. That somtimes doesn't work so if you have a better method please share.
