All right... I have figured out Photo shop, due to the help of a dear friend of mine...

But now.. when i convert the BMP to a tex.. this is how it turns out... all blurred...
I have it saved as an 8-bit..

Does anyone know the problem?

Photoshop saves BMP in a different way than MS Paint. You should open modified BMP in Photoshop, open not-modified BMP in Paint, in Photoshop copy modified graphic, paste in MS Paint and save file in Paint. You should remember that original file has indexed colors and your modified BMP should have that, too.

We are working on it... My new partner, who wishes to remain nameless is working on  a solution.


And now, I have got the avatars to look good in the viewer... I even put them in the game, supposedly... but they don't appear in game... it shows the old avatars.. when they don't exist anymore
O.o


Here is how they look in FF8AC (i know its viewed in Eight.. but FF8AC doesn't have a view option):

And here is how they look in game:

I don't know the problem... any one know a solution?

I know one of the pics is hard to see... here are what the modified pics are supposed to look like:

I know... I haven't gotten to Laguna and Seifer yet...
and if anyone could possible find Edea, Kiros, and Ward in this  kind of image... that would be very helpful
 :D... I can't seem to find them.

What do you guys think of this griver?
(I am going to edit it later.. so you only see the lion)

Dawww!

And do you have any higher res versions of these pictures? I image that it's best to start off with the biggest, most detailed pics possible and resize them later (but what do I know  :-P)
 
What do you mean?
I found these images on google image search..
I am going to get better ones.. once i figure out how to do an avatar mod..
-.-  I think I am missing a step.. and as it is... Colly is the only one I know who knows anything about FF8, I just have to wait for his input...
*sighs*
 
I think it may have been a reading comprehension fail on my part; I thought those small images were the ones you wanted to put into the game :roll:

But if they're only to show use what kind of pics you want, that's different  :-D

are you talking about these small pictures..
they have to be that small for them to work in game.. this is the texture map.. they get bigger according to what menu they are placed in ...
this is all in game of course.
 
Oh.. those are just the images i am using... just showing what i want and what i am using...

here is a progress shot:

Progress-1.jpg


I am rather proud of my work...
I will make it better soon!
:D What do you guys think of my new Griever?
Edea, chocobo, moogle, kiros, ward and Angelo... those are the only things left i have to "make better"
any one have any good pic suggestions?

Okay I am back.
My only problem is now, they won't appear in the game..
-.-

I am wondering is the avatars in the main.fs or the menu.fs
cause I altered the one that was in the menu.fs... but alkor gave me a main.fs..
-.-

*is very confused*
 
The (internal) format is exactly the same as FF7 (.p files) but I haven't looked at the loader or the actual data so I can't say if it's all the same.

waitwaitwaitwaitwait.

did i read this correctly?
are you almost suggesting that models can be converted to and from FF8 format with the FF7 tools?
....custom models?
