@ xplod3r: I could not add any designs etc. to your armor because it is too limited, usually armors with large areas and capes etc. work much better. It has been sharpened and Topazed though.

Chronos,

Great job on the previous sets. Would you mind doing two of mine. This is my first time using texmod to rip textures, so I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. If you need me to change anything let me know.

Thanks,

Can anyone advise on how best to do this ???

I've got PhotoShop, with the Topaz Vivacity filters. Is that all I need.

I've extracted my 'sin armour (Elite Kurzick, dyed black), but whenever I run it through Topaz "DeNoise/Eq", the original looks MUCH better than the resulting image.

Am I doing it wrong/using the wrong filter ??? Or do I need to use more than 1 filter ???

Can anyone give me some pointers on which filter(s) and roughly whatsettings to use ???

Thanks
Craig

Actually, here is the bmp file:

http://senduit.com/9763e8

Could you please Topaz it for me Chronos ???

If it's not being really cheeky, could you please tell me what you did to it ???
I'm so out of practise with Photoshop, it's ridiculous.

Thanks a million
Craig

Hey Chronos,

Thanks for your work on my two BMPs. The warrior came out great, but the monk armor had a transparency issue, i've since figured out that it had to do with the way I ripped it with texmod.

I've since downloaded the topaz filters but I can't quite match the work that you've done. Do you have any advice you can post or PM on which settings you use, or a method that I can follow? I'd like to try this with my other chars, but guidance might be better than experimentation for me

Thanks,

O-Dawg

well BMP is just easily opened by all photo editing programs, DDS you kinda need a plugin for Photoshop, as well as it is an added hastle if you look into mip mapping. TGA never tried, same thing though, TGA doesn't show thumbnails for me in folders etc. which may not seem like much, but really helps wen i needto look through alot of images.

If you could do these two for me (Kurzick Necromancer 15k and a mix of different Dervish Armours) it'd be greatly appreciated.

http://senduit.com/5ec9da

As with others I have been giving the Topaz Plugin a go, but I too haven't been able to come up with anything that I would view as improved over the original. Any advice you could give me on how to get an effect similar to yours would be greatly appreciated as I have quite a few characters I'd like to try this out on.

@ Kommisar:

@ Witch:

For some reason bmp files taken from Rapidshare cannot be opened properly by Photoshop, use a different hosting site.

I do not have a topazed Zodiak bow, mainly because i do not own one.

You can most likely change the color of spells etc. but that is about it.
