 ::| The first detail I saw was the huge eye...  >o)

Drawing workshops with anatomy lessons mention surprising proportions and simple geometric relations, nevertheless they are usually better than pure imagination.

I am glad you like it. :)

I had another "project" I did. It isn't perfect. But it definetly looks better than missing parts if you ask me  :P



Anyway. If you didn't guess which tower it was I climbed.... One of the hardest places to reach if you ask me ;)

i really hope that model gets into a future update (next update preferably), it always bothered me to see the armored riverling in it's current state.

keep up the good work!!

The reason can't be much worse than a flipped image, I believe ... but I won't edit a lossily compressed one.

Hey JiJi why don't you post the riverling texture file here? Some of us could really use it. Or at least send in a PM.

LigH: The skin was really messed up when I started. Parts were missing (the left side of the Riverling) and other parts were at the wrong place (tail and arm armor for example). And I started editing the compressed one cause I don't have a better one. If there is a way to get my hands on the original one then I would work with it.
Something that would really help me is if there were some screenshots or so where I can see how they used to look like.

I am not sure if oyu can call it skinning. The most things I did was moving the existing parts to where they belong. I did add something myself though...
But thanks. It is fun somehow. Though I think there are other who are better than me ;)

Here you go. This should be the latest dds (the one I made the screenshots with) of the armored riverling skin.

You just need to compress it with in the materials.zip instead of the existing riverlinga.dds. The materials.zip is in the art folder in your installed directory.

And no. It isn't finished yet. But the last things there are left to do are giving me a bit trouble, so it might take a while. Especially since I have something to do in RL as well... and I still want to play Jilata... ;)

Thanks for the link. I was searching for a pic but unable to find one.
Now I know where those left over parts are supposed to be at :)

After a closer look, it seems that "Riverling" and "Armored Riverling" have a relevantly different UV map. Fixing them may not be as trivial as I hoped.

No they have actually the same. The problem with the armored riverling skin was that the parts of the armor were at the wrong places. The first thing I did was relocating the parts, so the armor is at it's right place. After that I just used "copy and paste" to cover the places where armor was missing. At some places the armor still doesn't fit together (for example at the head and one of the shoulders). I am still trying to figure out how to best fix it without having to change a lot...

The UV map is the vector description of the positions of mesh parts on the texture.

If the same part has one set of coordinates on one texture, but a different set on another, then both textures are based on different UV maps.

Unfortunately (or rather, of course) both models in game use the same UV map, therefore the "Armored Riverling" texture does not match that used one.

Hm... Lectures in which you are forbidden to turn your laptop on can have interesting results  :whistling:

Anyway... things don't always go the way Jilata wants them to....
