mdta & djipi's
Super Awesome Majora's Mask Project

PROJECT UPDATE - 20th May 2006
Djipi is almost done with the whole of Clock Town, including the interiors of the various buildings. I have pretty much finished the HUD, the subscreen items and text is still to be done, but that will probably be left to last.

I have also been retexturing all of the characters from Clock Town, each takes about 3-4 hours dependant on how many times it takes to get the look right, and how detailed the character is.

Some objects have been done, and some icons also, but these things will be left till near the end, as the locations and characters come first.

Images are scattered throughout the thread.


MDTA - Martin

[Sirmatto]

Sweet Jesus!

[pilm]

Djipi's Realistic Majora Pack was absolutely wonderfull, really an incredible work... I can't wait to see this !

[Darklord89]

This is genna rock! Can hardly wait for the previews :D

[Miretank]

Yay OMAGAD! :D

[AleX_XelA]

Too much anticipation!

[MuhMuh]

Comic Style Majoras Mask! :P
(sorry mdtauk)

[Typify]

*cough* It's spelled awesome.

[EmuFan]

I´m really exited, can´t wait to see it!

[mdtauk]

Official Logo added to the first post. We will update the first post when something new happens with the project, as well as posting a new post. I hope you like the logo, we have decided to keep a wrap on the project for the past few weeks, and we wont be releaseing packs until we are close to complete, but expect screenshots, and other info related to the project as time goes on, you may also see another nice addition to the project if all goes well, its still early in planning, and may not happen, but an Instruction Manual may come along for this pack...

[Magitaro]

So is this Cel style? It's too bad the realistic Pack never got finished. Best of luck with this one!

[Djipi]

mdr ... MD you can't keep this secret ..... lol ...... so......

Shame on you mdr and thanks to tell me that you will annonced the project yesterday lol

[Mollymutt]

That logo looks awesome!

[mdtauk]

Well Djipi, you didnt appear online, and I didnt announce what the project is about, MuhMuh gave that away...

I just thought I would start the teasers, and just put the logo online, like a coming soon message, not unveiling any of the work, thats your choice when you want to start showing stuff...

[Unusual_Rex]

Cool!!!

[EmuFan]

So is this Cel style? It's too bad the realistic Pack never got finished. Best of luck with this one!
Not Cel style, Comic style, and that is WAY different

[darknior]

Your LOGO is Wonderfull :D
Great work ...

[EmuFan]

Yeah, i meant to comment on that, REALLY great logo, the best i´ve seen in a long time. Very professional done, was it made by Djipi or mdtauk? And by the way, when i save the logo, the name is cel-majora's-logo. So it will be cell-shaded? Anyway, i know this is gonna be GOOD:bouncy:

[The_nameless]

It has the windwaker font so it will probably be cell shaded

[tailslol]

a pack with cell shading/cartoon graphic style for majora mask
it will be awersome (the last celda is to good XD)

[Miretank]

Well Djipi, you didnt appear online, and I didnt announce what the project is about, MuhMuh gave that away...

I just thought I would start the teasers, and just put the logo online, like a coming soon message, not unveiling any of the work, thats your choice when you want to start showing stuff...
LOL :D
Funny confusion, excelent logo! :D

[Djipi]

Ok time to show you just two shot for the project...

[SWAT_Marc]

Oh, my...

This is... superb!

The quality of the shots is great and also Majora's Mask is more suitable to Toon Shade than Ocarina of Time due to its surrealist atmosfere.

Keep it up!!

[linkenski]

ummm. maybe the Deku scrub link is a little too dark

[frizzelneck]

looking good keep up the superb work

hope its as awesome as your last pack.:]

[Mollymutt]

You outdid yourself this time. Just great!

[Djipi]

thanks Mollymutt

[Typify]

I agree linkenski.
The hair is way too light compared to his face.

[J-Nic]

aside from the face color, this cel mod look fantastic! I'm really looking forward to its's completion, about as much as I was looking forward to E3!

[EmuFan]

Well, in my opinion, deku-link should have a dark face. Anyway, this looks friggin sweet!

[Fabricio_EX]

There's a man who put his soul on this work! I can't wait to use it!
Keep up the good work!

[Djipi]

Wip !!!!

[sgrevolution]

starting to look good, especially those fairies :)
MM is in good hands.

I had one question though.....about how many textures are in a zelda game?

[J-Nic]

I've got to say, that is definitely going to be a really good retexturing mod! lol I like how u made tingle look like he did in the windwaker :)

[Darklord89]

The logo and those fairys im in luv with :D
Everything is amazing, Excellent work. Keep it up :bouncy:

[J-Nic]

lol I just noticed the windwaker fairies. you did a great job creating them into the other fairies skin.

[Torrean]

Wow, simply amazing. When this is released, how will you get it fixed so when there is a blur (ie the mask spinning), it won't go black? Thanks for both of your hard work!

[zeldafan970]

hey guys, this is amazing stuff! I love what you have done so far and look forward to more!! I made some ocarina icons for the c-buttons a while ago in the minish cap/wind waker style that i got from hatrix and I think it would go great with this pack, so if you would like to use them go for it! ok, you probably won't but in case you do its ok with me.

EDIT: Also, will you be using any textures from your guy's last cel Majora's Mask pack? Or no?

[Knuckles]

mdr

omg.... PLEASE, and I BEG YOU don't USE THAT instead of lol..... this looks so.... retarded.... -_-

[linkenski]

Nice work! i can't wait!

[EmuFan]

Wip !!!!

Holy crap!!

[Djipi]

Wip (again lol)

[Torrean]

Very nice! I like how he looks, and the c scale icons look very nice! Are you trying to finish the clock town area/deku link, and then on to other things?

[Typify]

Deku Link looks ok now but those C-arrows don't really fit in. IMO.

Oh, and Tingle looks much more tolerable now.

[The_nameless]

Hey! didn't el kameleon (I think his name whas something like that) make an VERY similiar looking tingle? Oh, and the textures looks beautiful:)

[tailslol]

the windwaker style texture realy fit this game! amasing work ;)

[mdtauk]

Now most of the Main HUD is done, I have been trying something new...

Its up to Djipi which of these he likes, and decides to use...

[klasa]

The great fairy looks a lot nicer than the original one! This one is a lot more calming.

[darknior]

Yes it's very impressive :D
Good job ...

[eternalcold]

Ugh i always hated the great fairy look. It was like a gothic slut before, now its just... *slips $10*

[The_nameless]

I also love the new great fairy look!:)

[zeldafan970]

but why does anju have purple hair?

[mdtauk]

but why does anju have purple hair?
Why not...

[EmuFan]

Exactly..She looks very wind waker´ish, like that jar-woman on outset. I like what you did with GF, a relief actually..

[sgrevolution]

Im not a huge fan of the a, b, and C buttons, but I guess I could get used to it :/

[zeldafan970]

Why not...

Because kafei is white and purple with purple hair, correct? It's fine the way it is, i was just curious...sorry if I offended you.

[mdtauk]

no you didnt offend, and we havnt done Kafei yet, he may not have purple hair, its whatever looks best!

What do you feel is wrong with the HUD Buttons?

[El Kameleon]

i would appreciate it if you were going to at least use my work that i have freely distributed after stopping my project, that you at least ask if you can include it in your own project. Yes, that is my tingle that i worked oh so hard on.

[KMan]

It seems to be a common thing to do these days. 'if it is on the interwebs, it must be free!'

[El Kameleon]

yeah, I would more than likely allow the use of my work, I would just like to be given credit where credit is due, ya know?

[mdtauk]

I can confirm that that isnt you're tingle, the screen posted was made with wind waker textures made larger, I have since redone tingle with my own textures I draw by hand, as I have done with the other characters...

Drawn in vector, exported to Photoshop, and resized/recoloured and finally renamed...

[El Kameleon]

you are right, i can see slight differences. its pretty amazing how close i got considering i didnt use any original textures and drew right from the tv screen by hand, no vectors here. looks good though.

[mdtauk]

you are talented thats obvious...
sorry for getting our wires crossed! :)

[zeldafan970]

I can confirm that that isnt you're tingle, the screen posted was made with wind waker textures made larger, I have since redone tingle with my own textures I draw by hand, as I have done with the other characters...

Drawn in vector, exported to Photoshop, and resized/recoloured and finally renamed...

Might I ask what vector is? It sounds like a program that I would like to become more aquainted with.

[mdtauk]

I use Corel Draw, but you can also use Flash and Illustrator. Vector is when you draw shapes which can be resized as much as you want, however you can only use flat colour, gradients, and alpha transparences, so you dont get blend modes and other tools you use in photoshop to add detail using brushes.

[The Dave]

Well the whole point of vector images is that they are put together using math so the image becomes points in an equation, so when you resize it the quanities change and there is zero quality loss. When you are designing logos you usually do it in a vector image so it can be used anywhere.

What mdtauk says about you can only use flat color, gradients, and alpha transparencies is incorrect, that is just the limit of his program. There are some people that can make lifelike images using vectors, but they are very very good at what they do. A beginner to vectors is just going to be able to do solid shapes.

The program that really is at the top of making vector images is Adobe Illustrator.

[zeldafan970]

Thanks guys, that's perfect because I have illustrator on my other computer but I didn't take the time to learn enough about it. I think I'm gonna have to do that now. thanks both of you!

[mdtauk]

Well vectors can use bitmaps for fills, and effects, but they are not vectors. Illustrator and Corel both use bitmaps in the same way. so in a way The Dave is right.

[darknior]

Excelent ... i love your work :D
I stand for a new version of the pack LOL ...

[mdtauk]

Its been a late night, so here is some progress...

[Mollymutt]

WOW! Nice

[pilm]

Really nice :)

Just a suggestion, aren't the eyes of Kafei too large ?

[Alchemist]

Looks good, this might make me want to replay MM.

[Jale]

Cool! I'm getting this pack.

[gR.-]

nice work :D!!! :bouncy:

gogogogo... ! :drool:

[Djipi]

Do you like news gormon !! And Wip

[Typify]

I think that Gorman looks kinda odd...
But I do love the Happy Mask fellow shown earlier, imo it was the best character you've redone so far.

[SWAT_Marc]

This is getting even better :D, though I also think Gorman's eyes look odd (maybe the alpha channel is not done correctly).

OT. I remember this game with a special feeling, almost everybody was disgusted with it because the story was not as epic as Ocarina of Time one. From my point of view, MM is better overall OoT because its better graphics, story (is not the hero helping a lady again!), playability (it's replayable indeed, not as OoT where, once you're done, you can't replay a mission) and that gold-like cartdrige!! (Here in Spain OoT cartdrige was white as most N64 were :()

[mdtauk]

OK i thought there would be some confusion with the gormon family, so a little bit of background.

When I am designing characters' their backstories are important so, the gormons are a family of 3. One brother left to lead a troupe/circus group into entertainment. The other 2 work at the race track.

Gormon the circus leader I have designed as a CLOWN. The Mask and Gormon himself are clowns so I made them look like clowns. The other two brothers look normal (eyes still being tweaked) so here are more screens to illustrate...

[pilm]

The Circus Mask looks really nice - and the other members of the Gorman familly too.

However, it is true that the "first" Gorman became a clown, but when we see him in MM he has lost everythings of this old circus spirit and became selfish and always angry. Thus I think it is a good idea to made his mask a clown mask, but for himself, why not a more conventional style ?
Just my opinion, it's still your project, do as you want ^^

[mdtauk]

well it isnt until about 11 am till he finds out his troupe wont be performing, so he is dressed as a clown ready to talk to Madame Aroma. his nose goes pink when he is happy talking with them, and later when he is in the milk bar depressed, his nose is purple, so it shows his emotions more so, plus I did the mask in a more traditional clown style to show it at its prime so to say (white face and coloured eyes)

I have just finished the council workers and the town guards, I am starting on the mayor (kafei's dad so similar look to use) and the receptionist...

[mdtauk]

The Mayor is finished, so time for a few screens...

[pedrocasilva]

The Mayor is finished, so time for a few screens...Wow, it looks awesome, I really like Mayors look.

One of the lances the soldiers are using looks real wierd up close (the pink soldier), but that may be just me.

The fairy looked very strange when far away (last pic)

[tailslol]

yea great but i prefer djipi windwaker style textures but it realy look good mdtauk ;) great work

[Mollymutt]

The two of you work great together. I think your styles mesh very well to make a great overall look to MM. Great job!

[sandy and my]

who i can load gamecube roms

[Magitaro]

The look is very sharp, and clean. It couldn't hurt to add a few more details. Without the wind-waker-esque patterns or the future possibility of cel-shading, the world seems a little bare.

Keep it up!

[Djipi]

thanks all mdtauk and me do the best for the pack and i would like to credit mdtauk to the incredible work he do for me , for you , for zelda.....

[Miretank]

more than amazing :)

[J-Nic]

this looks great!


just a suggestion. If your doing the whole windwaker style effect you should make the postman look like the rito postman from windwaker who looks like the MM postman. basicly give him a rito postman style look.

1 more suggestion. you should do something really cool with fierce diety, because he's always been my favourite character.

keep up the excellent work!

[EmuFan]

who i can load gamecube roms Dumbass. Djipi, mdtauk, brilliant work!

[mdtauk]

fierce deity is my last retexture (saving it for last) And interestingly enough, I made a minor discovery with the postman. there is a rito with exactly the same face, working inside Dragon Roost. Also rito inspiration has been used...

[zeldafan970]

haha cool find, although when i look at your postman with those eyebrows, eyeliner, and hair minus the bangs it reminds me of will farrel from zoolander, I think it would look good if you left the eyebrows, eyes, and bangs the way they were, but kept all of your other changes (white hair, darker skin color, other cool stuff...) but that's just my humble opinion. Keep up the good work mdtauk!

[pilm]

Excellent work with the postman ! I really enjoy your style, mdtauk !

[frogsoblivious]

Hey guys, great work! You are both very talented.

I have been working on retexturing Majora's Mask too for a while, and I was wondering if you wanted some help with this. I have lots of textures I've already made you can use if you want, and I'd love to make some more to help you out. I kindof have a similar style to yours. Hopefully this isn't too many screenshots (maybe I got carried away a little...)

Even if you don't want me to work with you, I think you are doing a great job and I can't wait for your pack to come out. :) Majora's Mask is probably my favorite of the Zelda games.

[mdtauk]

Well i think the projects have differing styles, djipi should have the final say i reckon, but you do have a unique style which perhaps you should continue with.

hey ho, here is todays work...

[Djipi]

frogsoblivious the statue where you play to go to a place is awesome can you send me this statue?

[_Zack_]

stunning work.

[Typify]

I love pretty much everything you've done so far, but I must say that those fairies are ugly.

[Propa McGanda]

Oh, this is very exciting. I'm sure you've heard this 100 times, but everything looks great. :)

[pedrocasilva]

frogsoblivious, wow, I loved your work, everything in it, really... you're quite skilled, and you did all that by yourself...

:drool:

[Djipi]

thanks all

[Unusual_Rex]

NICE! Great work DJipi

[frogsoblivious]

Sure, Djipi, you can use my owl statue. :)

You (and anyone else who wants to) should download my textures (WIP) below. You might find some more in there you want to use.

Thank you very much pedrocasilva, I'm flattered. :D

Also, Djipi that screenshot is absolutely stunning. I love the metal roof the most for some reason. Also like someone else said, the happy mask salesman's face looks completely awesome. You guys actually made him look like a cool looking guy rather than a scary creepy one. Really great looking textures. :D

[koolkarts]

Great work guys, but I think you should improve on Epona... She looks too plain, and her eyes make her look scary...

[tailslol]

great work all ;) mdtak your postman is awersome!

[The_nameless]

frogsoblivious, I've made an Epona that may fit your style:)

[mdtauk]

a little more progress, the moon is still a WIP

[J-Nic]

I like the moons face. especially the eyes.

[The_nameless]

The moon looks really wierd, but the gorons looks great!:)

[pilm]

Yes, the gorons are good !

[J-Nic]

The gorons do look pretty impressive. Especially their beards, which look like they did in the windwaker. The sky around the moon is also very windwaker-like.

[Djipi]

WIp

[The_nameless]

beautiful:)

[mdtauk]

a couple more characters done...

[The_Z]

I actually like how the moon looks like. The cucco looks great as well.

[tailslol]

realy odd moon XD it remenber me andros in starfox 1 and 2 on snes but great work for the other char

for the moon i think a "terminator like" moon will fit more the game with the same color of your moon ,with red light for the eyes , whith white theeth for the mouth and with darker big points of color on the moon ( a litle like the original moon for a not unified color to stop the snes look style)
like that at night you ll see only the tooth and the eyes
or you can try to make something like the stone boss with big hand in the tour of zelda windwaker but instead of use green for the eye light the ray and the runes you can use red or orange!
but dont forget the tooth because the moon is to hod and not scary without them
here are some artwork for explain:

http://www.nintendo.no/tipsogtriks/gamecube/zeldatww/bilder/1boss.jpg

i hope it will help

[tailslol]

sorry for double post but this is my first work i share! this is my moon hope you ll like it! here the screen of it
URL=http://imageshack.us]http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/5216/lune7kq.jpg[/URL]
and here the download link ;)

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GC2DU6GD

[EmuFan]

It looks like you just filtered the original texture..

[tailslol]

yea i have use the original one for the tooth (i dont have enof skills... ) and redraw it a litle but for the other textures i have use only a color (the one from djipi moon) and i have use the sponge effect filter and then draw a circle in the same emplacement of the original textures. for the eyes its only circles drawing. i have done it in 20 min. if you whant i can redraw all ;)
this is still wip if you whant i change something i will be hapy to change it i have already redraw the tooth and the eyes but dunno if it will fit the game ...

[mdtauk]

Here is a bit more progress, remember its all WIP until both me and Djipi like it...

also if anyone here is skilled with the cheat codes, can people try out some various arrangements of the HUD and other OnScreen icons, just to try out some ideas. There is a code out there I think which was used for Djipi's cel-zelda mod, which gives a Wind Waker style layout, but if anyone can come up with a better alignment try it out. The best looking and functioning one will be suggested with the release of the pack...

Also if anyone is willing to have a go at fixing the tiling of the sky, post a message here, and me or Djipi will get in touch...

[_Zack_]

You guys amaze me more everyday with your texture packs.

Great work!

[Mollymutt]

Also if anyone is willing to have a go at fixing the tiling of the sky, post a message here, and me or Djipi will get in touch...
DO you mean dumping and piecing together the sky so you can retexture it?

[mdtauk]

the sky is done, but some of the tiling is a little off

[Djipi]

Milk Road and Romani Ranch is done!!

[loren]

Djipi, mdtauk......




YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!!!!!!

Oh MAN! This is going to be so freeking sweet to have MM retextured!!!

What's just as cool is the possability that this could work on the XGP or GP2X Console & I could FINALLY beat MM without the jaggad feel of the horrible textures (I remember how much they scared me away when I tried it 2 years ago)

:party: Good Work Guys :sombrero: :bouncy:

[timdevril50755]

I love this retexture! Only a couple things I don't like.
Links eyes for one... They don't really fit in with the rest of him, they look too round almost.

The best finish to this pack for me would be...
Fierce Deity retextured to be a replica of Adult Link from Ocarina of Time, in cel style!

[Mollymutt]

the sky is done, but some of the tiling is a little off
I'll take a crack at it.

[tailslol]

arg amazing its soooo goooood
(and im so bad XD)

[mdtauk]

The residents of Chataeu Romani!

[Djipi]

Just a Little WIP

[Mollymutt]

Looks great.

[zeldafan970]

yeah it does! wow did you make the item picture? did you take a screen shot then cut it out in photoshop and shrink it down to the proper size?

[Djipi]

yeah and retouch it too

[The_nameless]

how many textures are finished so far?

[mdtauk]

thats a difficult question...

I have selected all my texture folders and right clicked for properties and it shows so far I have done - 1,618 tiles
but bare in mind some elements use multiple tiles to appear on screen...

[tailslol]

it will be good to have a prewieu pack with only the textures of the begining forest, the deku mask, the deku srub and,the mask seller and the city,just for try ;)

[Djipi]

A preview pack? ..... Well ..... Hummm ...... HUHUmmmmm..... NO ! lol

[mdtauk]

I agree with Djipi completly.

We agreed together before starting on the project, that we will not post any packs until it was practically complete, and then perhaps one final pack with any fixed textures or forgotten ones.

We will continue to post screens however...

[pedrocasilva]

We will continue to post screens however...That's all I really need... I love screenies :D

[Djipi]

Finally , TERMINA FIELD is Done!!!!!! Enjoy!!!

[frogsoblivious]

WOW -- that looks amazing. Incredible work!! :drool:

[zeldafan970]

It looks amazing, but what's that yellow oval on the deku mask?

[Bluesummers]

probably the "mouth" of the deku mask

[zeldafan970]

probably the "mouth" of the deku mask
but that doesn't make any sense because there is a shadow everywhere else under the mask but in the whole.

[Djipi]

It's the Mouth whole.

[EmuFan]

It looks VERY good. At first i thought it looked kind of strange, but now i think it´s GREAT! Brilliant work, Djipi and mdtauk. I like the HUD too.

[darknior]

It's a GREAT work DJIPI, i LOVE IT ... it's very beautifull :D
Thanks ...

[pilm]

Awesome :drool:

This is really amazing, excellent work !

(and by the way, isn't the Ocarina icon a bit too dark ?)

[Djipi]

Way to Swamp WIP

[J-Nic]

nice work... can't wait until its release

btw the green chuchu looks a bit too bright..

[EmuFan]

Thats weird...I dont recognice the area/path in the second shot..

[mdtauk]

Djipi, I would add a shadow to where the mouth hole is, as you would get a shadow there, also, that ocarina icon, the colour is fine, but the black shadow looks odd, I think you should keep all the shadows the same for the items...

I'm still working on the sky, I have an idea I am going to try out, I have found a good way to make the sky look like its 3d in the distance, so i am working on that.

[åsabo]

http://www.emutalk.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=32737&d=1149454926
why is link so white? ho looks sick..or very scared

[EmuFan]

You don´t so happen to be related to Jerrod Vick??

[Djipi]

Swamp is Start

[EmuFan]

Lookin´ good!

[jim061290]

hey the swamp water looks better that the original one

[Darklord89]

Excellent work! Looking great so far :)
Tho i really think that the ocarina icon could be a little bit brighter =]

[Djipi]

Ok Work hard on Swamp entrance and now it's finish , enjoy!

Look to compare before / after.... Screen 2 and 3

[The_nameless]

looks awsome

[tailslol]

ok thx for the answer XD but great work all ;) a litle odd because its realy hard to do something with this strange game and this style;) good luck
(hate the screens because when i see them i whant to play XD)

[peoman]

Excellent work.
But I think that Link needs more work.
He looks kind of strange.

[Unusual_Rex]

MDTA and Djipi great work on your project!

[Rice]

great work.

[Conker rox]

yer sick as work is it done yet?

[Conker rox]

but one quishtion how do you make zelda mm load in rice with out it loading black?

[Djipi]

Thanks Rice , it's an honor for me to have your congrats .... Owing to you , this is possible , without your work , we are nothing , thanks and great work to you Rice

[Torrean]

Every time you post, Djipi, your English gets better and better. I remember back when you barely could, when I lurked. Anyway, thanks for the plugin, Rice, and great work on the project, Djipi and MD! I love how it looks, and as someone else said, the swamp water looks better than the original.

[Converter]

Djipi, Your work is awesome. I've tried your other retextures and they were great. Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see the finished version.

[EmuFan]

Every time you post, Djipi, your English gets better and better. I remember back when you barely could, when I lurked.
Excactly what i said too! Just keeps getting better! And Djipi, it is more people like you we need here..Keep up the good work my man!:bouncy:

[Liku]

Awesome work, though the game seems dead and somethings don't seem like they're in place.

[Propa McGanda]

When you're done with it, could you please upload it to somewhere faster than megaupload. Filefront.com would be nice. ;)

The screenshots so far are orgasmic.

[mdtauk]

OK i've been busy recently with reformatting and restoring my PC, but here is progress so far...

[pilm]

The skies are amazing ; I really like the dawn sky.

[Mollymutt]

Looks great! You obviously changed the sky since I pieced the other one together. If you need me to fix the tiling on anything else, I'm here.

[mdtauk]

Your tiling really helped me get that sky to work well. The bright clouds never did work properly with the way the game colourizes the textures, so we needed a subtle sky, like the original where no big clouds are visible. It may need more clouds, but that is upto Djipi when he sees it. Its simple enough to update, night sky will be the same but more colour banding, and less clouds.

[MuhMuh]

Now the only thing we need is cellshading in Rice's plugin or the new Direct64...
But I think we won't get that... :(

[EmuFan]

It looks really REALLY great, really like the sky..But i noticed there are some kind of realistic graphic there, is it going to be some kind of a mix?

Djipi is working on the environments while I am working on the characters HUD and effects. I send my stuff to Djipi when I finish it, but Djipi keeps his files to himself at the moment, i dont need the tiles yet, I have more than enough to keep a grip on, so I show screens of the bits I do, and djipi shows shots of our combined work...

[J-Nic]

The enviroment is just simply amazing. The sprites are also quite well done.

[Djipi]

Swamp is nearly finish , just one or two texture and i can start first temple.

Edit : Woodfall Temple start

[Sirmatto]

Swamp is nearly finish , just one or two texture and i can start first temple.
Very nice, this is going to be one hell of a game when all the textures are done

[pilm]

Very nice !
But the screenshots switched directly from the swamp to Woodfall Temple... Do you have some shots of the Deku Palace ? :)

[jim061290]

The only thing I can Say right now is WOW!

[The Dave]

Yeah Djipi you're blowing me away. I really liked the Ocarina Pack, but I felt like there was some little things that might have been skipped over or rushed, but you and MDTauk are going over this game fantastically. I really like that you guys are doing the NPC faces like that.

Are there any pre-rendered backgrounds in MM like OoT? I really hope not. That's the worst part about OoT. (In terms of retexturing.)

[Nelde]

no, i think there aren't any prerendered backgrounds. so we can hope to see a fully retextured game :bouncy:

[_Zack_]

your work is as stunning as always Djipi :P

Well done, keep it up :D

[Kerber2k]

The OoT cell pack was good considering how many texures needed to be covered, but ultimately I was disapointed with the overal quality. I really found it to be inconsistant, but this one looks consistantly good. I have high hopes for this one. Great work.:sombrero:

[Djipi]

Woodfall Temple is Finish!!! Now time to Odolwa

[Darklord89]

Super :D I think that the gold edged bits are awesome ;)
Carnt believe how fast progress is coming :)

[Djipi]

Odolwa is finish . If you don't like give me idea lol

[Mollymutt]

I like, I like!

[mdtauk]

i like it also, be sure to make the 3d mask remains and the menu version match

[pilm]

I like it too, good job.

[ShizZy]

Looks good.

Question - how many of these textures are original as opposed to rips from Wind Waker? I see a few, but they could just be similiar. Just curious.

[mdtauk]

We have both agreed to try remake our own textures whenever possible. For my knights I re-drew the patterns and designs for use myself, so that is technically original, just looks like the Wind Waker one. We are deffinatly trying to take our Colour palletes from the game however...

[Conker rox]

I still cant belive how good this project is you guys are doing some better textures then some professional can do its amazing. Cant wait for the end look, keep up the good work

[Djipi]

First Game part Finish ! Odolwa is Dead!!!!!!

[pilm]

This last screenshot is really good. Colours, letters, icon... everything is perfect - especially the colour palette.

[tailslol]

just awersome XD cool new look mdtauk ;)

[Djipi]

Some Shots

[Im Bored]

wow damn

that first screen is the sex

[Mollymutt]

Man... OOT was great, but WOW! You are awesome!

[mdtauk]

the text will need doing...

[Jason__Voorhees]

I Wand the mod! :)

[mdtauk]

Just a small update, the boss name style... Still a WIP

[pilm]

The effect on the text is very nice and well rendered, but does this 3d-style really fit the game ?
Maybe a more flat style would be better - for example I loved the bosses' names in Celda OOT, flat and still coloured. The text you(?) made for the standard dialogs of this pack is quite flat too, and the shadow on letters gives a nice effect. So, why not more flatened letters for bosses' names ? Just my opinion, of course, you are doing an amazing job :)

[mdtauk]

Djipi wanted something which stood out, we worked on several styles and ideas, and he liked that best.

Also the first of the deku tribe is done, The Deku Princess

[Mollymutt]

I can't believe that is running on an N64 emulator! It looks like something out of a cartoon!

[Jason__Voorhees]

I Relly LOVE Odolwa´s mask! Can you put the textures here plz? I Want the mask now :)

[mdtauk]

His Majesty, The Deku King...

[Djipi]

And Now the royal Family!!!

[mdtauk]

seeing the characters I made in a full cel-style environment Djipi made, makes it all look complete, thanks for posting that Djipi

[mdtauk]

I was looking at a site some weeks back, about codes used in Ocarina of Time. I found one screenshot, showing the beta Stalfoes Room but for some reason, it was in 16:9 widescreen. I was wondering if it is possible for someone to generate codes to do this on majora's mask, and perhaps to re-arrange the interface...

[Mollymutt]

Are you sure that isn't during a cutscene? It probably changes to 16:9.

[ZFB8]

But cutscenes don't normally have the HUD <_<

And Now the royal Family!!!
Look relly awsome! I Cant whait! :bouncy:

[skyman8081]

Honestly, that looks like a screenshot with "Override Aspect" from Jabo's Plug-in turned on.

[Converter]

Great job Djipi and Mtda!!! These textures are Awesome!!! Maybe someday I'll be half as good as ya'll. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to play the finished version!

[legend of zelda]

Honestly, that looks like a screenshot with "Override Aspect" from Jabo's Plug-in turned on.
Shhhhh! Isn't that supposed to be a secret? Ah, who cares anyways since you can do that in 1.6 too but it's called "adjust game aspect ratio to match yours". I just found out that you could do that in 1.6 btw. You guys should try it, it's kinda cool playing zelda in widescreen without the screen just getting stretched. Just set your screen res to something of the 16:9 ratio and put that option i mentioned on. Btw, i like your avatar skyman. That's penny arcade right? i havent been there in quite awhile, i think i'm gonna go check that out right now. Oh yeah, i didnt even say anything about the texture pack. Uhh...good job...i guess(didnt even look at it).

[mdtauk]

Ah so its a plugin option. Thats a shame, as that function would have to be included in Rice's plugin for it to work with the re-texture packs. Rice perhaps you could add this functionality, and perhaps find a code to move the hud elements to the edges of the screen, whether you have a widescreen monitor or not - black borders top and bottom in full screen on a 4:3 monitor.

[legend of zelda]

I'm sure that ts_death_angel guy or whoever could make a code to move the hud to the edges when in widescreen with that option on. also, mdtauk, it seems your not a pj64 member, so i guess you dont know the new jabo's plugin 1.7 beta supports hi res textures. anyways, i thought they give free memberships to good texture artists? at least i think i was told that. i know djipi is a member. you should ask about getting a free membership so you guys can use the betas and make your textures for jabo's plugin too if you want.

EDIT: btw, i just looked through some of your guy's textures and they look pretty awesome, no complaints here!
EDIT EDIT: i just looked through some more, and i have to say they look way better than i would have ever expected, great job guys!

[Jason__Voorhees]

I Relly want to see the Gerudo Pirates :)

[tailslol]

it will be cool to find the code from cell shading aspect of the direct64 plugin to include it in jabo 1.7 or next rice

[Djipi]

Second Part , Snow Land!!!!

[tailslol]

wow so beatiful! i love it

[Jason__Voorhees]

Awsome! Keep up Keep up! :)

[SWAT_Marc]

Goron's dungeon (the entire mountain) is, with Ikana Canyon, one of the most beautiful places of the game. Well... for me the whole game got a GREAT art direction, with pretty sceneries and very well implemented surrealist ambient.

You guys are doing an incredible work. I do not post everytime you release some pics (obvius! :P) but I enter the thread everyday to see the WIP :D

I don't know if this could be of any help (I also don't remember if you alredy did the Termina Field map :blush:)

[EmuFan]

[Conker rox]

[The_nameless]

[zeldafan970]

I really hope not..... Although its been almost a month since the last update, yes?

[Vinilipe]

Maybe they're just bored of retexturing this game...
Let's wait... i don't really think is dead *Hope so*

[Conker rox]

this cant be dead its to good or can it......i hope not

[mdtauk]

I am on a break from re-texturing for a few months, got other projects to work on.

Djipi is converting the existing tiles to Jabo's new plugin, and generally testing it out.

[EmuFan]

Well, i´m glad to hear some news. Take your time, and come back well rested. (PLEASE GOD!) Either way, it´s up to you and Djipi if you want to keep this up or not.

[tailslol]

some screenshots with the pack on the new jabo plugin in widescreen and with frame buffer effect enabled will be soo good XD

[but2002]

Are there any screens of Jabo's new Plugin?
If so, can you post them?

[NSCXP]
