DBZ skin request

[Gokou]

Hi guy's,

Is there a free skinner out there or maybe a fan of anime just like me. Maybe you guys can skin my new skoped DBZ meshes. If you are interested please reply. :)

[Shepherd]

i'll try skinning them... and give you an update on it ok...

[Gokou]

The new head meshes aren't uploaded yet only the old ones. I'll upload them right now and release them. :)

[Shepherd]

well here's an update on the Gokou... it has the non-updated mesh... but the only thing that i changed is the male_basic.tga... still working on it though... so this is just a preview and not yet the final outcome... i still need to enchance the face and other stuff too... so i'll keep you posted...

here's the update...


I'll try merging it with your updated mesh coz ur updated one has a better face (hehehe)... oh and btw... i can't seem to find the judo_master kf's of tommy in his site... all i can see is the kungfu one... thanks...

[Gokou]

You're pretty fast on skinning. :) Good luck

Here is the Judo Master keyframes by Tommyboy. If you're using FFVTTR you must convert it first using EZNifConvert or you'll crash your CTool.

Hi, it's me Shepherd... i seem to have a problem with my "Shepherd" account in this forum... it seems that i can only log-in but not post anything... well anyways... this will be my new account name... so anyone need anything... pm me with this name...

Back to the topic... well here's my update on Gokou and Vegeta... with Gokou's updated meshes, and i nifskoped some stuff to be put in Vegeta, like the goves and the bootcuffs... so i hope you guys like it...



These are not final releases, and they still need enhances... so i'll just keep in touch... peace out!!!

[Podmark]

Oh man I'm loving these. Especially the new heads. Takes me back a few years when I was a big DBZ fan. Actually Tien was my first ever skin. I should update him sometime.

[Kaede]

i'm still in the process of skinning piccolo and gohan... and i'm thinking of giving trunks a sword... oh my god... i'm such an anime addict... hehehe  :doh:

[Gokou]

Nice skins and additions Kaede. :thumbup: Just remove the symbols of Gokou and you have Mystic Gohan's suit. :)

It will be cool to have 3 version of Trunks. An armored & no jacket Trunks like in the DBZ Free the Future episode and the Trunks with sword. Good luck



I'm also working on Super Boo's head and maybe he will be ready for tomorrow. :)

Thanks Podmark. CF Kane is also skinning my skoped meshes and it would be great if you will try it too. The more the merrier. :thumbup:

[Kaede]

so here's what i got so far... still experimenting on stuffs... hehehe... and i'm having trouble with piccolo too... stinky alien boy... anyways... here's the 2 father and sons...





now all that's left is piccolo and the other 2 versions of trunks...  :thumbup:

[CF Kane]

GAH! And just when I was on vacation.

[vamp]

They look so much like the anime its amazing. Great work. It would be awesome if ya'll could make gokou with the halo

[gengoro]

Holy Jebus!

[Volsung]

Sure, he's pretty fast on skinning.

So fast that he forgot to tell us that he kitbashed that old pal Rodney Olmos work on Bid for Power. :P


By the way, what about converting ESF or BFP models to FF with proper credits?I'm sure rodney would allow it

[Kaede]

darn... Volsung beat me to the punch... i was trying to save that comment for last... hehehe... yep, they are from the BFP game, converted into FFVTR... and i kinda don't know who Rodney Olmos is, so wherever he is, credits to him for that game... i'm just here to make everyone happy...  :P
and btw @Gokou: i noticed that when the meshes do the shadowless kick, their hair dissapears... could you look into it... well maybe it's ok if nobody uses that animation... @Volsung: yeah converting BFP models to FF would be great, but how do you exactly convert it? if ya know, tell me, i'll gladly help you out :thumbup:.
so should i stop converting BFP skins to FF now? and let you guys do it for yourselves? or should i continue? hmmm...   :wacko:

[Volsung]

 :P

Rodney Olmos made the whole dbz pack when he worked on bid for power.
Funimation forced bid for power to remove all dbz content from BFP but the file are sill available on Rodney Olmos website.

You could convert BFP/quake3 Md3 files or ESF/HL Smd files by using milkshape
Then from milkshape export those in .3ds and open those in 3ds max so you could skin them on a biped and export them as nif.

Easier to tell^^ ESF/HL use animation keyframes, but BFP/quake3 use animation by vertex.
That means you won't get the mesh in a standard pose.It'll be fixed 'in motion'.You'll have to 'distort' the mesh to get a standart pose before skinning it to a biped.
A pleasure...
I won't make it^^ I have the Timmverse project to continue as soon as I'll be able to

But...after all, the files are so old that Rodney Olmos may propose you the max files if you'd ask him.

[Kaede]

it's so funny, i have all his models for BFP, but i don't know his name until now...  :doh:
anyways... converting it to FF seems interesting, but complicated... hehehe... i think i'll just continue converting the skins though... coz i have nothing else to do...  ^_^

and good luck with your Timmverse Volsung... i'm really looking forward to it... they are soo great, it makes me want to cry...  :huh:

i'll have the updates as soon as i'm finished with piccolo...

[Gokou]

Guys the models are not from BFP they are all from ESF and I got proper permission from Kreshi. And Grega(ESF/ECX Moderator) told me that it's ok to edit the models in ESF but I must give proper credits. And I have given proper credits in the readme file if you download the mesh.

@Kaede I've never tried using the shadowless kick, I'll look on what's causing the hair to disappear.

Edit:

The shadowless kick work's fine in the game. It only disappears in CTool if you zoom in/out.

I don't know that Kaede used the skins from BFP. I hope we don't get in trouble.

[Kaede]

what exactly is ESF? and about the BFP skins, don't worry i'm not gonna release them with the current BFP skins... i'm just gonna use the BFP skins as a layout, some sort of a base skin for dbz characters... what i'm going to release is my own version... this are just all previews... so no harm done here...

@Gokou: hey what you say, you and i start an Anime thread for anime lovers like ourselves... you know, start anime meshes and skins and stuff... just say if you're interested...

[Gokou]

ESF is a Dragonball Z Mod for Halflife. Hey man are you going for the realistic look or the anime look like in Budokai? And an anime thread would be great.

[Kaede]

wow... i can't believe i didn't know about ESF until now... lols... time to download it... hehehe
@Gokou:  i think i'll go for skins with a clearer black outline... and not the realistic one... i'll try mixing up anything... hehehe... and i'm skoping out some anime hairs too... for other anime characters, using your converted hairs from dbz... and btw, isn't there a way to convert the whole models of ESF to FF? and not just the heads? you know like the armors and stuff...

so here's what i got so far on skoping anime hairs... care to guess whose hair this is...]



still needs some few strands though... and a longer hair bangs... hehehe...

[Podmark]

Looks like one of my all time favorite anime characters - Uchiha Sasuke from Naruto. Part 2 design if I'm not mistaken. Looks like Jik's ninja mesh which might not be the best mesh for him though.

[Gokou]

@Kaede - I tried to convert the armor but it's messed up. Because I would have to assign the armor to a bone and I don't know how to do that. But the head is much easier because I will only attach it to the Bip01 Head and it's done.

It would be cool if you will try light colors like in Budokai or like what Revenant is doing to the JLA Timmverse mesh. :)

[Kaede]

yep it is from Sasuke alright... hehehe... one of my fav's too...

@Podmark: the ninja mesh wasn't really intended for the hair... it just so happens that it was the only ninja like mesh that was free in my mesh folders atm... hehehe... but i'm trying to transfer it to a more kiddie mesh... do you happen to have any better suggestions though? ...

@Gokou: for the armors, try pasting them direct to the body of the mesh like the coats and jackets... coz that's what REDBACKDEATH told me in my other thread... but haven't tried it though... tell me if it works... coz it would be much better if the armors are converted too... and much easier to skin  :D

[Kaede]

so what about this mesh? it's the Franklin Richards mesh by Ren... is this mesh ok?
well see for yourselves...



or do you guys have better suggestions? what software can we use to take pieces off a mesh? or a part of a mesh?

[Gokou]

That mesh is great for little kids like Sasuke. :)

Btw I've tried attaching it but it didn't work. It's all messed up.

[Kaede]

if you have them maybe you could send me the files, and i'll gladly help you skope them...
if you want, send it to me at newradmercz@gmail.com
i will not rest until we perfect this one... hehehe  :thumbup:

[BatWing]

[Gokou]

@Kaede - How is the armor doing?
