I am trying to bring the art INTO the game so....

This is a service i am opening up to people. I will "Topaz" your armor so it will have sharper details, lines and overall graphical quality

The process also works on the players Hair if provided in the image rip.

There are 2 methods to this:

1.) If you know how to use Texmod, you can use it to pull out the 1Mb .bmp version of your armor (do not use jpeg pls) and send it to me in some way.

2.) You can find me in game, and i can get your armor data directly.

Note: It is best to use method 1, that way when your armor is actually modded you will also know how to load and manage your modded armor(s).

Example of Topazed Armor:

(Necromancer)15 Necrotics + 1.5k Fanatics Before and After:

(Warrior)15k Platemail + 15k Primeval Helm Before and After:

(Assassin)15k Imperial + 5k Vabbian Before and After:

Hey Chronos, you gotta show me how you do these things..

Anyways, I have no idea what TextMod is.. So I just converted in PS (Which is now CS2 ). Anyways I don't really know what you want in the ways of payment or anything, but I'm sure we can work something out

Feel free to do either one, I'd like detail on the Bone dragon too.. if that's possible.

Good Luck

What exactly is "Topaz Filtering"? Some sort of Filter thingy in Photoshop?

Well I have three textures here for you to "topaz":

15k Gladiator Armor: http://www.sendspace.com/file/aib2kb

15k Kurzick Armor: http://www.sendspace.com/file/xpjyqy

Kind of curious how it'll turn out. Appreciate it. Also, if you feel like it, could you also do the Water Djinn?

TexMod is a program used to extract the texture data of armors, people, maps, everything. And then I take an extracted texture file and "Topaz" it (and yes Topaz is a PS filter)

@ IMAU: This is actually something you see in-game, not just a screenshot manipulation. So those armors you see in my first post i actually see as i am running around and playing the game (If you really want...i can Topaz that screenshot and make it detailed too....but you won't see it ingame :P)

@ -.-: I will get on those ASAP.

BTW: This is an example of more you can do with the Texmod program, I finally finished my Tribal Ranger Collectors Armor:

Alright, the textures are done...i am rather interested in seeing that Djinn skin for myself so i may go around Vabbi later today :P

I will include a "slighly" Topazed version of one of those screenshots for you IMAU...just because


Added a tiny bit of it to the Bone Dragon and yourself as well as the 2 characters in the back, and the skillbar (because it looks better that way)

The Gladiator and Water Djinn ones look beautiful, but the Kurzick seems to remain the same. Thanks man.

Yes, that's correct.

Chronos the Defiler: Don't know, maybe you forgot to send the correct file?

I sent you a PM with the proper BMP hosted. Also, i would not mind seeing some screenshots of those 3 in action (i do not have either of those armors on what appears to be a female warrior)

Now, I'd really love to have this done, but only if it doesn't violate the EULA...
I just wont to be sure, anyone knows if it does?

EDIT: Btw, your tribal armor is awesome!

@ AoW: Done...I also want to test something, i changed the file and saved it as a .bmp but i have the option to host it onto Photobucket (which makes it easier to transfer the images back to you) only problem is that is changes its file extension to .jpg, i will test to see if this change will directly effect the image when put into a mod....anyways:

Tested: Turns out when PB changes its extension to .jpg it re-applies that weird "shine" effect which makes the armor gross....but Imageshack allows me to host it and retain its quality as a .bmp so i will be doing that from now on.

So basically, you're just filtering the armor mapping through "topaz" in Photoshop? I personally like the effect on some armors, but on leathers and things like that, it doesn't look right.
