Next I am going to try and replace the Kiros and Ward Avatars.. using images taken from this Picture... (the only one we could find with CG Kiros and Ward)

from what it started with I think I did a good job.  Pity ward comes out dark...
 
When I first saw this I was concerned (3d-like pics in a "2D" game?)

But after playing with it, it makes totally sense. Thanks for your work, looks great!


Can I ask you how did you mod FF8 TEX files?
 
I used a program called Omega..
it converts all the Tex. files into BMP..
then i did all my work in photoshop and paint.
then i use omega again to convert the BMP. images into a .tex file..
:D...

*(WOOT... 777 views.. that is a lucky number.. :P)*

Can you tell me what you plan to modify?
I also wanted to mod some files, but I don't want to work for nothing
 
I have pulled out all the stops above to turn this>

Blurs, sharpeners, colour correction, tone changes, contrast changes, noise reducers....  You name it I have tried it.  My cousin has a saying "you cannot polish a turd"

I agree.

That is the very best I can do.....  the above picture is the only source I can find for CGI kiros and ward. (note I have made small mistake with kiros hair whiuch I will correct later)

Pity... There isn't another CG image of them.
-.-....

Aw well... I guess Ward Will have to wait for now.
:(

Still, Thanks so very much!
You have contributed so much to this mod.

Any Feedback, people?
 :-D
 
You definitely did a good job.
What troubles me is that i do believe the original drawings are far better than circumstantial rendered CG in general.
Anyway, i suppose it was an effective start and good exercise for modding.

Please read my PM too.
 
hey rinoa, wutz up? 'member me?  :-D anywayz, good job on the avatar mod, looks great and i am going to input this onto my ff8 game thanx!
 
Thanks so much.
I know.. this was mostly to to learn photo shop for me.
xD...

I like CG better personally.... but the 2D art is really good too.
hahah
 
Is it possible to create an alpha channel to this pictures ?
my idea where to replace the white background with 100% transparency and add a black border like this...

Can you update your mod for FFVIII Steam version please?

Thank you very much.
 
That'd be a neat trick, seeing as OP has been banned for years. I'ma go ahead and close this thread. ~Covarri
