FINisher Posted May 9, 2020 Author Share Posted May 9, 2020 <p>I've decided to go through the whole pack and feather blur the edges of each worker if needs be as there's two problems with some images: 1.) some of them still have blue pixels on the outlines or other glitches 2.) some images have very rough edges even though they don't have any blue in them, which is highlighted against some company logos. This feathered blur is something I figured out at the very last batch of the original mod so there are hundreds of these that already have the smooth edges around them but there's also quite a few images like this, comparison below. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/redface.png.900245280682ef18c5d82399a93c5827.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="bairei1.png" data-src="https://i.ibb.co/j87v7hp/bairei1.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="bairei3.png" data-src="https://i.ibb.co/HDpdgsb/bairei3.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> Hopefully I'll get it done when the release drops next week *fingers crossed*</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINisher Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 FINGIF1.4.rar is now out. Turns out you can't really blur the edges properly as when you save as a .gif, it will turn the transparent edges into full coloured pixels. Anyway, I did go through the images and fixed a lot of images - some workers were missing parts of their shirt, shoulders or hair and/or had some roque blue pixels floating around. Like I said before, if you find images that need fixing OR want your image to be .gif without the background, don't hesitate asking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracker221 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I appreciate the work on these! I restarted all of my trial games last week to have the .gif format for everyone. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said before, if you find images that need fixing OR want your image to be .gif without the background, don't hesitate asking As I create renders for my CVerse India mod, I have a sub-folder that I have converted to GIFs. When I release the mod, I can send you a copy of the folder if you would like to include it in your pack (currently at 43 images including various alter egos).

FINisher Posted May 13, 2020 Author Share Posted May 13, 2020 I appreciate the work on these! I restarted all of my trial games last week to have the .gif format for everyone. Thank you! Great to hear That was also one of the reasons why I was in a hurry - so that everyone can start new games with the full released game (hopefully soon) with this .gif pack. As I create renders for my CVerse India mod, I have a sub-folder that I have converted to GIFs. When I release the mod, I can send you a copy of the folder if you would like to include it in your pack (currently at 43 images including various alter egos). Sure thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Feathered blur is something I normally do in this work, but for this game I didn't as it tends to make the pics look worse instead. Even 1 pixel makes a difference when there's only 150x150. In the case of our high-flyin' amigo, it completely changes his outlook (jaw to cheekbones).

But in-game, you barely notice it.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINisher Posted May 15, 2020 Author Share Posted May 15, 2020 Now that the full game is out, just a small bump to let people know this .gif pack exists for TEW2020 too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radical Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 So, I may just be blind but the steps "Select All -> Change "Make Written contract.." to "Picture becomes GIF format" -> Mass Edit -> Yes" no longer seem possible in the full game, since the buttons, dropdowns are missing. Has the method changed, is this an error or am I just stupid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINisher Posted May 15, 2020 Author Share Posted May 15, 2020 Ah yes, the editor has been changed. Press "Toggle List" from the top first to show more buttons. -.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GIF pack was a lot easier for me to make since I was doing all of the renders myself.....worked out a nice little system: save png as gif ----> paste png to blue background ---> boom both packs done. Anyway, really enjoy using your work, and wanted things to stay consistent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINisher Posted May 19, 2020 Author Share Posted May 19, 2020 A small bump to let people know this pack exists - there's lots of new players on the forums that might not know of the possibility of having .gif images <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarthAlgar Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 A small bump to let people know this pack exists - there's lots of new players on the forums that might not know of the possibility of having .gif images Just wanted to thank you for your work. I didn't know this was possible in TEW 2016, despite playing and checking the Forums regularly since release. I think, this thread should be more visible for TEW 2020 than it was last release.

FINisher Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 PM'd you. Instructions are on the very first post quite clearly. However I doubt that they'll work with an on-going save, unfortunately. You might have to alter them to your promotion one by one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FINisher Posted June 4, 2020 Author Share Posted June 4, 2020 Just a small bump, it's been a little while since this was on 1st page. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_Kobain Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I just want to thank you so much for your hard work. It really makes the game so much better. PS: Also, a little bump because it was hard to find between so many pages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS: Also, a little bump because it was hard to find between so many pages Thanks Andy! Yeah, I can agree on the hard to find part.. I'd say majority of TEW players don't even know about the mods, or if they do, they don't know about this massive project.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINisher Posted August 13, 2020 Author Share Posted August 13, 2020 There's a Hall of Fame thread @ http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=549180 so if you feel that my work over the fifteen years would be worthy of a nomination, say so!

FINisher Posted October 15, 2020 Author Share Posted October 15, 2020 Bump, since it's been over two months and this thread has vanished into oblivion and I don't want my hard work to be forgotten tbh. Hopefully TEW is getting new players at a regular pace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
