Slightly confused by this, You have the avatars in the avatar folder. But i never see them in game. Are they not enabled by default?

Must have forgot to include the tex files. my bad

This isn't the first time it hasn't worked

Another thing I noticed now! There was no change in the avatar! Remains unmodified image.
Click to expand...
Sorry my bad. Must have missed that

Just use LGP tools, open menu_us.lgp, click on clouds avatar (cloud.tex) then click replace and select the image of the custom avatar

Excuse me? When In my post did I say anything hateful or disrespectful? What kind of 'Remarks' are you going on about? I was just pointing out to hellbringer616 that the avatars don't seem to work without adding them manually...

Dude, If you've had a bad day, plz don't take it out on me, I wasn't trying to annoy you, and technically hellbringer616 told you that you missed it for the sceond time not me, so why not have a go at him? I didn't post in caps and I didn't put any explanation marks, so I wasn't trying to be critical. Plus I was posting to hellbringer616, and not to you...

He asked my why it wasnt working. I told him i forgot to put the files in. You were the one that felt the need to point out that i have missed it more then once. Anyways lets drop it. Im not here to start any feuds
 
Well to be clear, I wasn't trying to start a feud, you took my post completely the wrong way and got annoyed about nothing  :wink:
 
Meteria   :-P

mike strife, that looks great, though your blue materia is to white.  and your green is a bit to blue.

@Sl1982: Thought that was the issue, no biggy. was just curious as to why.
 
Apparently materia is the biggest inconsistency in people's taste... It's the only part of the mod I've seen remade more than 3 times...
 
I personally use sl1982's but people make their own spin on it it seems. I just like to point out any flaws so they might correct them (if they even want to that is)
 
Oh, and I'm just not really gonna have much time for FF7 modding... I may submit something randomly here or there if I see anything that strikes my fancy... but I would suggest not counting on me being here every day or anything...

Also, Alex isn't going to model himself...(lazy ass bastard) so... I shall return to my modeling thusly.
 
btw im updateing server now will i have to reupload your mod again now XD
 
Satoh, You use vector graphics right? could you point me to a few places to learn? Might be able to help out while you're busy
 
Ummm.... there isn't much to learn really... its more or less just getting used to it...

I use photoshop's pen tool for it...
Clicking creates a hard corner...
clicking and dragging creates a smooth curve...
CTRL Click on a point allows it to be dragged or the smoothness angle changed...
The small dots coming out of the points change the smoothness.
SHIFT+ALT Clicking these dots allows them to be moved independently of eachother (It might be CTRL+ALT... I don't remember... it's more of a physical reflex to me.)
to undo the most recent single point, press the delete key once... (CTRL+ALT+Z does not work properly in this mode)

None of this makes sense until you actually try it while reading the instructions...

sl-kun should be able to help you out a little with that as well, since I think he recently figured out how to use it decently, if I recall.

They are Satoh's not mine. I dont like taking credit for something i didnt do
 
Also I should note that not everything I have done is vectors... the hand and maybe some others were, but mainly I just make things REALLY BIG and uniformly shrink them... until they are the right size...(keeping the large versions just in case) like the Materia... that was an old self-practice exercise I made long ago... I just added Bear-san's materia images from the first page, as a mask on top to give it some more reflection.

The materia slots were just clever use of layer effects (the linked part was a little harder since I had to blend things with the smudge tool without losing definition... I swear I remade that so many times trying to get it just right... which it's pretty close now.)

The timer numbers were...a little different... I started with a font I downloaded... then I converted the text layer to a vector layer and modified the shape of some of the numbers... and added some layer effects to it... eventually getting the glow I liked and metallic reflections... then... well anyway you get the point...


All I really do is blend a bunch of simple tasks into one good looking finished product... if I may be so conceited as to complement my own work.
 
Ohh, i see. I was thinking thats what Timu should do with his Avatar's, because the tiny image displayed in the preview looks PERFECT
