C Bear Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Out of all the aspects of modding for this game, I've been looking forward to tattoos the most. I was really disappointed with the ones in the game, most of them sucked ass. I don't think I got a single tattoo until I got to Las Venturas. Word to Moerder's mother for making the first tattoos (as far as I know) and for making that guide. Once I saw that, I couldn't wait to get started, so I've knocked a few up already. Tribal Dragon Japanese Dragon "Respect" Kanji Character Grim Reaper Download links and more tattoos coming soon.

Loman Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 DUDE! That Grim Reaper is awesome! I made a texture for the monster truck and increased the resolution 3x, do you think it would work for tattoos, too? All I did was resize it in photoshop, edit it, and paste it over the original texture in paint. If it worked, you could have a lot more detail in your tattoos (not that they aren't detailed enough already, but bigger is better) Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/198736-cbears-tattoo-parlour/#findComment-2923035 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say try it out and see how it works, cause there is no shame in doing the good ole trial and error process. C Bear: Glad my guide and tattoos inspired you. Also if you want a custom image when your in the tattoo shop edit the files within LD_TATT.txd (models/txd folder). If you do that, then you can have your own custom preview image before getting the tattoo(s) done.

C Bear Posted June 23, 2005 Author Share Posted June 23, 2005 (edited) Yeah, I've been doing that. DUDE! That Grim Reaper is awesome! Yeah, I was very pleased with the way that one came out. [i made a texture for the monster truck and increased the resolution 3x, do you think it would work for tattoos, too? All I did was resize it in photoshop, edit it, and paste it over the original texture in paint. If it worked, you could have a lot more detail in your tattoos (not that they aren't detailed enough already, but bigger is better) You increased the resolution and then added it in TXD Workshop with the higher resolution? If that works, I would definately find that useful. The back's not too bad as it is, but it's really tough to find useable images for the smaller tattoos. Made a few more: Tribal back #1 Tribal back #2 Fantasy-style Dragon Edited June 23, 2005 by C Bear Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/198736-cbears-tattoo-parlour/#findComment-2924864 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loman Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 (edited) I tried it, but it crashed the game. I followed the tutorial, except I resized it before I saved it, maybe if someone else tries it, they will have more success. Those last 3 tats are sweet, man Edited June 23, 2005 by Loman Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/198736-cbears-tattoo-parlour/#findComment-2926239 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I followed the tutorial, except I resized it before I saved it, maybe if someone else tries it, they will have more success. I'll give it a try. I have noticed, though, that there are certain areas on the texture that can't have anything on it (or probably the alphas, rather), or the game crashes. That may have been the problem. Like those two tribal back tattoos. If I were to edit the alphas, cut them and move them one pixel to the right, the game would crash (and it did crash numerous times while I was testing them ingame, as well as some of the others) Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/198736-cbears-tattoo-parlour/#findComment-2926364 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loman Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 Do you think you could try this one for me? I think it'd be pretty cool. It's a flaming skull with fangs (one is gold), with 420 on his forehead. It's also shaded so it would blend in with his back.

C Bear Posted June 24, 2005 Author Share Posted June 24, 2005 Green Lantern: I may, but I have no immediate plans to do so at the moment. Loman: It doesn't appear that blowing the images up works for tattoos. I tried blowing up an image that I know fits within the proper section of the .txd, so I know that wouldn't be the cause of a crash (the grim reaper), and it also crashed my game. It was weird though, I blew it up to 768x768, yet when I imported into TXD Workshop, it said it was 1024x1024. Anyways, I gave your image a try. A little distorted, I know, but it doesn't appear to be avoidable. Not for the time being, at least. Otherwise, I think it turned out pretty well.

C Bear Posted June 26, 2005 Author Share Posted June 26, 2005 Color tattoos need to have a darker alpha channel. White makes them look like decals. Not necessarily. I mean, can you see any of this guy's skintone through his tattoo? P§I: Should be soon. To be honest, all the ones I've posted here have been ready to go for days, I just need to write up a readme file. I am exceedingly lazy, however. Shouldn't be long now, though.
