Hey,


I just made a tool, I aim to use it for armor-color previews. Take a look and read the instructions!


As I am no armorsmith, I currently have no armor crafting screenies so it just displays a sample "Simple Shirt" for now.




Read the text on the page to see how you can contribute. Only TGA's please. Read before you contribute. Thanks!



Also if you have a better image generation (i mean the part where you strip off the screenshot and convert it to an alpha-channel on a png32 file) idea with better results, don't hesitate to contact me. Photoshop really sucks with png support, I had to use both Photoshop and Fireworks. Free trials are adorable.

I saw your thing, but as soon as the idea hit me (transferring the item's shades to an alpha channel and changing the background dynamically to change the looks) i just couldn't resist.


(eclipse powahh!)

(ECLIPSE POWAH!!) Can't wait for something like this. Just so you know, there armor palattes vary from appearance to appearance, so your work is cut out for you (or whoever does it).

Hey ehenn. If I provide screenshots for every color of BH armor, do you think we could get a working generator going for it?

i have a program (php in fact) to extract colors from a pallette image (as long as it's saved as TGA, if it's jpeg i first have to photoshop it for a few hours to get rid of the jitter) and generate the javascript code to generate the js-pallette.


the thing is, the color layers are harder to do (trying with a jpeg bh-helmet screenie i got from this forum) i'm considering learning flash/lingo and switching to SWF. or i might just generate the images with php+gdlib, gotta try. it's possible to do it (i'm talking about two or three color items) completely with js, but it will be boring. will try and see.

I need one screenshot per item. Not every color. Other than that, I'm still working on the multicolored armor part.


So, as a start, just one screenshot of an item (one of the two-colored items) would be fine. Be sure you select different (and not similar) colorsfrom both of the pallettes.Also remember i need TGA screenies. (bmp might also work but i didn't try it)



Thanks

I can't remember the URL but there's a site that lists all of the current items of clothing and the exact color palette they have, sort of like what you've got. Try asking the webmaster there or something.


It's something like www.tkfashion.swg or something.
