Painting for amnesia. Need help for model - Topsu - 03-19-2012

Can anyone help me to make a painting to amnesia from this picture: http://www.mediafire.com/?k32nv3j5pxg3ksu

I am not sure how to do this and also can't open modelviewer for making the meshes. :/

So anyone could be nice and make a painting for amnesia from that? Smile

You don't create meshes with the modelviewer, just FYI.

Just make a new decal and put it over an existing painting

I have the picture as .dds file now, but how I turn it to .mat file?

You don't turn the dds into a .mat file, you use the material editor and asign the .dds files into a material, then save that material out as a .mat

I dunno what is supposed to be in that picture, but it is grey.

--> Your image. Made that model for users who wanted to make their own paintings. Simply open the .dds or .psd and replace the grey area with your image.

I replaced the grey area with my image, but when I open the .dds with model editor it is still grey. :/

You have MUCH to learn about these tools before you go this far into things... I suggest you practice more before throwing yourself into something you don't understand.

- Open the model folder Acies provided
- Open the .DDS with an imaging program such as Photoshop or GIMP. Either would need .DDS support plugin.
- Place the painting into the grey area and save > overwrite the .DDS
- Open the .DAE in the ModelViewer (NOT ModelEditor) and if the image shows on the painting, you got it. If not, you did a step incorrectly.
