Kryptonite Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Now im not sure if this is in the right board or not but since it is modding related i figured what the heck. Anyways I am looking into getting into some light modding here and there, First for myself, and then for requests once i feel my skill is sufficent enough to please someone else. My first question is where can i obtain the default blue Cverse background for workers, and also the Red one that goes with the Thunderverse. Also if there are any others that i should have that are generally requested. I Have found the blanks for Toggs, KyKym and one that was Named CW. This has been answered by Michigan Hero 2nd. What program do you guys find most useful for cutting. I currently have Gimp installed and am currently playing with that. I also believe i still have a copy of an old photoshop somewhere stashed away from a computer long since lost to the ages. If your interested in cutting Idolized has made a great very useful tutorial for gimp which can be found 3rd. For you guys who do renders do you do them with the same program? If not what other ones do you find useful? 4th. I one time saw a mod that had add ons for pictures, such as chairs, hats, glasses, some suits etc. I never downloaded it as well i never planned on getting so consumed by anything other then the default set of images. Anyone know off the top of thier head who made this mod, and where i can find it? And do any of you guys have any additional add ons that you would be willing to share? 5. Any other tips you have i would love to hear them. As well as anything i may have forgot to mention please inform me. Again sorry if this isnt technically the right forum, but i hope i can get answers here, and maybe just maybe inspire a handful of others to get aboard with the modding of the game that has broughten us all together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Roguey Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 My first question is where can i obtain the default blue Cverse background for workers, and also the Red one that goes with the Thunderverse. Also if there are any others that i should have that are generally requested. I Have found the blanks for Toggs, KyKym and one that was Named CW. They can be found by in the pictures folders of the game. The Cornellverse background is in the pictures folder (My Computer ---> Program Files ---> GDS ----> Pictures ---> Default ----> People) and should be the first image you see. The same applies for the Thunderverse red background once you have downloaded the Thunderverse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kryptonite Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 Here are 2 different variations of a background i had made for a computer background a few years back. That i just recently converted to work along with TEW. Not sure if anyone is interested or not but just wanted to share. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v44/Kryptonite/miscother/blackslantsolid.jpg and for the second variation http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v44/Kryptonite/miscother/blackslant.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatallylost Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 <p>I'm not sure if anyone can really answer the cutting question, that kinda depends on you. I also use gimp, and use it exclusively. I've played around with photoshop, but it was always way more than I needed. Yet, there are those on here who cut with it.</p><p> </p><p> For my, I'm comfortable with gimp, so, that's what I use.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idolized Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 For anyone who doesn't have Photoshop, Gimp is certainly the best option. It has a lot of the same features, just takes some getting used to. I made a video tutorial on how to cut images in GIMP here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kryptonite Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 <p>thank you for the insight guys, and i plan on checking your tutorial out now thanks Idolized, much appreciated. After watching the video i was able to do my first cut. which surprisingly didn't turn out to bad although it is not by any means perfect either. I took a picture from my database (so i cannot claim full credit) That i did not like the background of and cut it, and put it on one of my backgrounds. Here is the end result </p><p> </p><p> <span>http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v44/Kryptonite/sincara-1.jpg</span></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like anything, you have to be 100% happy with it or it's not worth doing. Also, try to make it fun for yourself because they do take a very long time, People who have fun while rendering tend to get the best results.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Asaemon Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 2nd. What program do you guys find most useful for cutting. I currently have Gimp installed and am currently playing with that. I also believe i still have a copy of an old photoshop somewhere stashed away from a computer long since lost to the ages. If your interested in cutting Idolized has made a great very useful tutorial for gimp which can be found 3rd. For you guys who do renders do you do them with the same program? If not what other ones do you find useful? 4th. I one time saw a mod that had add ons for pictures, such as chairs, hats, glasses, some suits etc. I never downloaded it as well i never planned on getting so consumed by anything other then the default set of images. Anyone know off the top of thier head who made this mod, and where i can find it? And do any of you guys have any additional add ons that you would be willing to share? 2) Besides the ones you mentioned you can always use Paint dot net, its totally free, very easy to use and it also works with some Photoshop stuff, Filter Forge....... I used Photoshop years ago, but they the last couple of years i've only used Paint dot net and i've made tons with wrestles alts, title belts and promotion graphics for WMMA/TEW. 3) For rendering you need Daz3d or Poser. When i rendered i used Poser, but you should check out Daz since its free and a lot of renderers on this board use it and can help you get started. 4) It was probably Iceicles prop pack. Check in the thread with the C-Verse alts and go back until you find the download link or just send him a PM and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kryptonite Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 thanks for your all's help. I have one question that i cant seem to find a good resolution for. When your cutting a worker who has hair. and there is a bright color showing thru the hair (yes sometimes its possible to cut out some hair but sometimes the color still insists on glowing thru). How do you go about removing the color(s) that shine thru? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know which software you did chose, but if you did go for Paint dot net, AA's Assistant is a very usable tool. But there are probably similar tools available for other software.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
