Falcon161 3 Posted August 31, 2007 Alright I am working on a couple of skins that have text I put on them. But they are blurry when I go ingame! Is there any tips or suggestions on how to make the text readable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,857 Posted September 1, 2007 Decals. sometimes 'text' stretches or wraps depending on where on plane it's placed. decals stay together (is that right, or should it be legable?) Wrench kevin stein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Falcon161 3 Posted October 1, 2007 (edited) Any help? I need the letters to be readable. Plus anybody good at making emblems from scratch I need help making some I have the designs in my head I just am a beginner at The GIMP 2.0. If whoever decides to help me with them I will give credit when I release them. Edited October 1, 2007 by Falcon161 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+{FL}Hausser 0 Posted October 1, 2007 Decals or painted directly on the skin? I have also noticed that low rez skins tend to distort when loaded in versus a high res skin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon161 3 Posted October 2, 2007 Painted on the skin. And how would you make a skin high rez. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sony Tuckson Posted October 2, 2007 basically by using larger maps base skins for flyable planes are originally set at 512*512 pixels most if not all of today's addon skins are 1024*1024, some even 2048*2048 but only scaling up a 512 to a 1024 won't create a high rez skin, you have to redraw all details with the new scale, as upscaling will have reduced quality...

Guest Saganuay82 Posted November 4, 2007 One question, what detail setting are you running your game on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon161 3 Posted November 4, 2007 High. I fixed the blurry text problem. But Im just looking for people to make Emblems and Roundals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sony Tuckson Posted November 4, 2007 give us more details as now, it's quite hard to help since we don't know much about your exact needs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon161 3 Posted November 4, 2007 I need Fictional squadron emblems, which some need to be done by scratch, Ex: I need an Emblem that consists of A shield with a sword across it, with the Squadron Number and It's branch inside the shield on either side of it.

Guest Sony Tuckson Posted November 4, 2007 well, I suggest you produce the emblems you need, and some of us around here could make these decals for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
