James Brophy Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 can anyone tell me a really easy (easy as possible) program for making skins but it must be free! if YOU do then please reply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sights0d Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 Um... all you really need is a paint program. Photoshop... MS-Paint (standard on most windows computers)... anything will do. Then download pakscape from http://www.fileplanet.com That's really all there is to it. Modeling requires special programs, but skinning... another (and trust me easier) story.

James Brophy Posted July 6, 2002 Author Share Posted July 6, 2002 isnt skinning changin a real skin and is modeling making a completely new skin or what because i wanted to make a yoda skin?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrevHimself Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 whats a 'real' skin? a skin is the textures put on the model and a model is the 3d erm...model...that th eksin goes on. you cant make a yoda skin, or at least not a good one that actually looks like yoda. someone, however, is making a yoda model. it will be done some day, patience, padawan learner.

sights0d Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 I think I know what he means... He's just slightly confused... Think of a model as a statue. The skin is the paint that goes on that statue. While it is great to make new models, it is INCREDIBLY difficult. On the other hand, I recommend new editors start out making skins. I love making them. If you want to learn how to make a model, go to the modeler's forum and check out the tutorials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Brophy Posted July 6, 2002 Author Share Posted July 6, 2002 First i think, i will try to make skins then look into making models, oh yeah you said somthing about paint, well isnt it a bit of a blocky program for making good skins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrevHimself Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 you COULD skin in paint, but the results wouldnt be very pleasing to the eye. i recommend photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sights0d Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 I actually have seen some decent skins that supposedly came from paint, but I have my doubts. You'd have to pick each and every pixel. I'd see if you can find a cheap older version of photoshop. I'm using 4.0, myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
