Title: AF Kato reskin?
Post by: StarGunner on September 02, 2002, 11:53:33 am

Could someone do a reskin of the AF Kato so it looks more like the Sub-space portal?

Why not do it yourself?

It's a good looking skin but not what I had in mined, I was thinking like the Konssos in that it has the same coloers to it. Like the same styile?:rolleyes: I never liked the skin of the Kato, it's too fish-like.:nervous:

Geez.... I see you for a lot of time in here, asking for people to do things... why don't you learn and do it yourself??? Dude, in the beggining I didn't know a thing about modding, now I can tweak tables to my liking, make excellent weapons, make models, FRED easily and UV map... I just don't know how to convert models, and make textures... WHY DON'T YOU LEARN???? Just a friendly advice :)

Some people have no talent at 3d modeling. But reskins aren't that hard. The easiest way is to just rename some textures, but that comes out weird. I just stick to tabling, I can do almost anything, with any table. Look around you, there are so many different models out there, and they all deserve credit. Check them out.

So Stargunner, what can you do MODing wise? I might be able to help you a little, though anything past ani's and tables is out of my reach.

Well I can do weapons TBL with good skill too, and I am pritty good with tech info ,and also can do lots of good consept art. I am takeing a class for Web grafix and stuff but it will take some time for me to get it all down what with this being the first day of school for me.

Just wondering, you said you can draw, have you ever tried your hand at cutscenes? We could use a trailer for the TVWar project.

Ok then. I have a tiny problem with that one.

When using in FRED 2 and FreeSpace 2, I get these error messages...

Error: Couldn't open texture 'korath03'
referenced by model 'korath.pof'

Error: Couldn't open texture 'FIGHTERD'
referenced by model 'korath.pof'

I checked the model in Modelview32 and found no references to those textures so I can't see why the game has a problem. :blah: Did anyone else notice this or was it just me?

It's funny though, because it still works fine. I get the messages then I can carry on. Like I said, a tiny problem.
