Star Fox HD Community Project

[ReplayTy]

I'm not good in designs, but I will soon! however, if you want, you can assist others with Star Fox HD! I'm not a big talker... I might put a picture in soon.

[ReplayTy]

OK, from Kid A's picture is as shown

[cerebus5]

Good luck, try to finish it to the end! Absolute classic game.

[ReplayTy]

There's no way this ones gonna die! I'll promise you that!

[gitech]

I see no picture.

[ReplayTy]

I wish I knew how to show a picture on here... All I get is a big 'X'

anyway, if you have an amazing photo of your texture in action then show it here!

[ReplayTy]

There you go, sorry for double posting:party:

[ReplayTy]

Does anybody have anything they want to add to this project? Pictures on progress, thumbnails on character pictures? I'll Try to make my own, but I suck at art so... Might wanna start with foreground textures?

[ReplayTy]

Here's a second long video (no movement at all!) showing the look of the picture above on Fox's ship!

Sorry for triple posting...

The sad part is it's upside-down on the other side... :(

[X-Fi6]

Do you know what the "Print Screen" (Prt Scrn) button does on your keyboard?

Try it right now: hold the alt key and tap that button. And then paste it into Photoshop or Microsoft Paint.

[ReplayTy]

OH! Ty

I'll get my own picture here soon

[ReplayTy]

OK, to prevent this one from dying, we are going to try this is phases:

1. Ship & Enemy texture layout
2. Foreground layout (Corneria-Venom 2)
3. Foreground layout (Asteroid Belt-Solar)
4. Foreground layout (The rest of the planets)
5. Boss textures
Sprite textures (Fox, Falco, Peppy, Slippy, Kat, and the dumb monkeys texture)
Final Stage. Battle stage texture and crosshair touch-up.
RELEASE TIME!

[ReplayTy]

OK, Ship textures...anyone got anything good?

[Driscol]

a good thing is learning to edit posts instead of multi multi multi posting.

[ReplayTy]

right! OK, i suck at making textures...

[mode7]

Don't give up already. Take your time to experiment and practice. I could telll you I really sucked when I first tried to do this. That was about two years ago and it took me a long way and patience.
And don't do it for the feedback do it for the game you love and especially do it for your own enjoyment - If that's not the case - don't do it!

[ReplayTy]

Yeah, I have a water design for Corneria already made, but I have yet to see it in action...I don't even know where to put a texture to see it...

[Datadayne]

Hope you luck with the project. If this is something you are really interested in, giving up shouldn't in your mind. Keep working your way up the stairs, one step at a time and you will get better.

Yard by yard makes it hard, inch by inch is a cinch.
Datadayne

[ReplayTy]

of course, good luck with the arm and ribs!

[ReplayTy]

I looked everywhere, I cannot find anything to help me get those god-forbidden textures in the game! AUGHH! i'm tired, i'm sick, I suck, i'm done!

[mode7]

Goda**itt: Put it in "Plugin\hires_texture\GAMENAME"

[ReplayTy]

I've already got all that stuff from YouTube (the only place where people show you live rather than just a load of mumbo-jumbo crud) All of the objects are placed in there. maybe I need to get the water tex. out of the gimp file?

[gitech]

Have you been able to load any hires textures for any games' pack yet?

[ReplayTy]

no. well....no

[mode7]

Which filename are you using? What file format did you save them? Which resolution are you using? HiRes textures have to be 2x 4x 8x 16x..... of the original.
What do you mean by gimp file?

[ReplayTy]

Like the texture editor GIMP.

Where do I change it anyway?

I'm starting a dump on Corneria right now!

The dump is finished, and, I think I got a headache.

200+ textures, I hope you aren't expecting this thing to be done by the end of the year!

[EmuFan]

a good thing is learning to edit posts instead of multi multi multi posting.All the posts have different dates, so i think it´s fine.

Man, I have a hard truth for you: You probably won't be able to finish this anytime soon, if you will be able to finish it at all.
Take your time to learn how to work with gimp and learn some basics about file formats and digital images first. Then take a look at professional textures and tutorials on how to make a good texture.
Than come back and learn something on how texture replacements work. Search yourself a game to retexture and ask yourself if you want to spend most of your freetime with it.
Then you might start to work on a pack..otherwise you wont be getting anywhere.

[ReplayTy]

Well, I'll promise this thing by the end of the decade! or 2011, whatever...

[gitech]

Cool!

[ReplayTy]

Sheesh, I was expecting more of a negative comment, thanks though! I will work all the things out soon witht the textures!

[cerebus5]

Just start very, very small. Take a single object and try to retexture it. Say the spaceship where you had the logo, just work on that. Don't worry if it takes a month or two, just make it your goal to get that finished. Ask questions. Don't give up on this project.

[ReplayTy]

Well, I got a cold, and I'm starting with Corneria's outer area texture, Using GIMP, I use the color finder, and it's lighter most of the time! and besides, GIMP is free, and is easier to understand.

[Datadayne]

You should take a look at a completed Star Fox project by UnaidedCoder. Study the textures and determine how he might have achieved the look of the textures. It would make great building blocks.

[ReplayTy]

Yeah, with homework, already working on an SMW hack, making my own game, hires star fox 64, and I'm almost done with a cold, I might have to slow down creation a bit...not a lot, but a tiny bit... You will be expecting a done rebuild by the end of 2009.

Thanks Datadyne I didn't know that existed. This is some pretty good work. You should contact this guy.

[cerebus5]

How's progress coming along replayty?

[ReplayTy]

really, really crappy... and besides the Arwing textures were from KidA's textures. Honestly, I've been googling for hours trying to find simple tutorials for tiled hires textures. anyway, a stiff drink (Coca-cola of course) and a few minutes looking into the current semi-complete textures might give me a few pointers. cerebus, if you want, you can help with this project!

[cerebus5]

man I know even less than you do, and my time is like nonexistent. I'd love to though, it's a shame to be an onlooker when all these fantastic homebrew projects are being made.

[ReplayTy]

no kidding, even the greater retexturers were just like us back then *shudders*

[krayziebone99]

ive been trying to give you some help but you dont answer my messages

[ReplayTy]

what messages? Like PT's? never get them!

[krayziebone99]

i believe it was an email because on emutalk u dont have private messages enabled just emails

[death--droid]

ReplayTy we should get a forum up so we just handle everything there.

[ReplayTy]

oh, well I just checked, I barely ever go on my email, but the resolution was resolved, and I will get back to you on it.
