Nice photoshop...never really liked the program myself. At first glance, I thought it was some awesome model you got into Alice. At least we can dream. :rolleyes:

Yeah, that would definitely be a sight to see... :cool:

Maybe just editing the skins off pre existing models can give us decent results... resize parts of it to what you need.

How do you export object skins again?

Kinda like a Warcraft III remodeling, because many do the same thing, with editing just the skins but keeping the model and its hierarchy, instead of creating a brand new model. (Hard to do in alice anyway)

"Export" skins
 
Just decompress the .a2c file and look for the texture – it’s (nearly?) always in .png format. I recommend using 7-Zip - WinZip usually (always?) won’t decompress the texture file. (WinRAR also seems to work but I haven’t tried it much.)

To just take a quick look at a skin, just add a billboard with any old texture (256x256 pixels is a good size) and then use the object's skin as a texture for the billboard. You can actually print out this image, edit it and import it back as a new skin - but the dimensions get stretched a bit and the mapping of the new texture to the underlying mesh may be a bit off (and - by Murphy's Law - [I]always[/I] at the most critical point. :rolleyes: )

By the way, you don't have to edit all of the new skin - just use the old skin for the sub-parts in the hierarchy you don't want to change. (Obviously you have to change the lowest parts in the hierarchy last.)
