Wraithofdoom Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 well i asked him but he said he couldnt do it only qoute: I can not do this, unfortunately, only normal maps. I dont know if he can do alpha channels, i know what you mean looking at the pic i posted, but i dont think that is possible in oblivion,, though i might be wrong, overall im happy with these horse, it has some minor issues that you will realize if you look really close in the pics, but its pretty damn nice. He is still waiting on this permission. What do you mean? Adding transparency to the texture is a simple affair. Right click on the NiNode, go to add property, and add a NiAlphaProperty. That way the model will be transparent where it is in the texture file. I lack even basic knowledge on modding, he told me he couldnt do it, i dont try to understand i just pass on the information.

Wraithofdoom Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) i should add that this is a retexture of this mod: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=31340 which is why he is waiting on permission.

Keirgarth Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) There you go :) If he needs help with creating the alpha channel have him look at tutorials for photoshop or gimp. There are quite a number that explain the process quite nicely. As for the animations, that is another story, but one that I think can be overcome with a little work. The person that created the BBB mod probably has a real good idea on how to do this as well as a number of other modders. If he still can't figure out how to create an alpha channel, I will volunteer to create it, but I will need the original image that he created for the horse armor before he changed it to a dds file.

Wraithofdoom Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) i doubt i could make him do something he doesnt want to do, he has given me this and im gratefull, but i cant tell him "hey go see this tutorial and do this and fetch me that" lol, i think he has done what he will do on this matter, which is not little, and he has my huge thanks. If you would volunteer that would be so fantastic :dance: , tell me exactly all that you need and i'll pass the information to Sita, Edited August 28, 2011 by Wraithofdoom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirgarth Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 All I need in order to create the alpha channel is the image he created as the texture for the armor. Once I have that I can create the alpha and send it back. He will have to save the file as a dds with his program and choose to save the alpha channel as well. Then following the other poster's comments he can add the transparency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraithofdoom Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) ok, he isnt asnwering right now, i will tell him, but i would expect a couple of hours wait or maybe a day. I will post back when i have it (or he will) so remember to check the topic every now and then if you are here. Oh and thanks for doing this :thumbsup: Edited August 28, 2011 by Wraithofdoom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keirgarth Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Good deal Sita, as I told your friend, if you need help with making the alpha then I can and will do what I can to help out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sita Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I tried the method mentioned by ub3rman123 and I do not see the difference knowing that the texture has a glow map:http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/179937ScreenShot20.jpgand when I tried to add an alpha channel directly into the image with photoshop : http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/699459ScreenShot22.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
