.M.S 1,182 Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 Some people are asking for fixing uv mapping, i need to say that is much time consuming and can slow the development of the mod. Link to post Share on other sites
LaDiDa 828 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 It's be worth it in the long run though Some places have really badly mapped textures... It's still your choice though wether you do it or not. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ash_735 17,286 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 It's a LOT of hassle though, I hate texture mapping, I like working on textures but texture mapping onto models can go f*ck itself. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

.M.S 1,182 Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 Hey everyone, I'm thinking of integrating the jestic's hq palms into my mod, which do y'all prefer, the mod already included in the .7z file or a separeted download (both will be already adapted to vrtp)?

Nihilist. 1,921 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Hey guys, i've seen that y'all want some improvement on some textures, then show me what you want to improve!You should add some depth and details to them, or at least those you create from the scratch, like ads and billboards (Full Moon Warehouse being a good example). Having higher resolution and sharp edges is one thing, but most importantly, materials should match one another and be consistent stylistically. Continuing with the aforementioned example of Full Moon Warehouse, it looks good on its own, but it's clean, sterile. There's nothing suggesting it's printed on, let's say, paper or painted on metal. That's where you, as graphic designer, should step in. Add some borders to show it's not cut into a perfect square, weather it down a bit here and there, add stains, scratches, layers showing what's underneath (fe. older ad covered with the current one). Playing with colors is also a great idea, snce currently, as I said, graphic looks clean and perfect. Too perfect for the normal world, I'd say. And since Renderware is an obsolete engine, it can't use modern solutions to add flavour to otherwise simple materials. There's no dynamic shadows and lights, no reflective surfaces and bump maps even. You should add as much details as you can to distract the eye from noticing this simplicity. Lastly, I doubt retexturing the city is enough - R*'s models often are terribly mapped, and even good materials won't make these problems go away. It's kind of a Sisyphus' task. But then you won't be able to remodel everything alone. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
