Still tweaking textures, they seem okay at a distance but are very low-res up close, despite being 512x512 in size:

Could you post one of your uvmaps?Sheekel wrote:Still tweaking textures, they seem okay at a distance but are very low-res up close, despite being 512x512 in size

spring blurs the fuck out of every texture it touches. People mostly ignore me on this though, so carry on.

is there any easy fix for this? , because its quite annoying with mods that are well textured (SWS, gundam, S:44)smoth wrote:spring blurs the fuck out of every texture it touches. People mostly ignore me on this though, so carry on.

I keep bringing it up and keep getting shot down. Sorry, I wish more people believed me when I say that spring dry humps all textures into blurry messes.clumsy_culhane wrote: is there any easy fix for this? , because its quite annoying with mods that are well textured (SWS, gundam, S:44)
Guess what? that is the actual ||||||||||BLUE|||||||||| spring uses. That is the proper colors. Sheekel is doing it rite! several other mods FORCEFULLY MUTE the colors and it looks like ass!Pressure Line wrote:lose the pastely teamcolour!

no idea, I am not sure what is causing it. Feel free to baw to the devs, my cries go unheard. 
. I have often suspected the spring mip code or something similar but I have no conclusive proof.
Eitherway, sheekel you are doing a fine job and I appreciate you using the true colors for the teamcolors, too many mods think they should decide for me what my colors should be.

Ooh, interesting. You should probably have a project thread started, because this thread's beginning is all indication of phail and dead, which doesn't do justice to these nice screenshots you've got here.

Spring doesn't have the MIP code, that's part of the GPU. They blur like fuck in other games too. Maybe there's a way to affect the MIP bias?

Blob shadows ftw, we need more cartoonish games. Can shadows be disabled through Lua?
Can I see a closeup of the tanks, are they preshaded?
I was trying out a full team color cell shaded look the past few day myself and I have troubles getting the shading right, sort of... basically I have my tream color on black and use gray/white background for highlights... it's a pain to merge everything into one layer.

Please put full res link with your screenshot. Providing 640x480 is ok for the forum display but external link with full res would be appreciated.

Other mods, such as SWS dont seem to have a problem with blurring in their screenshots. Or maybe its just not as bad.
At first I thought perhaps i wasnt providing enough space on the UV map for bigger faces, and they were stretched as a result of this. I made a UV map that maximized the surface area of all the faces, and did a quick brush-over with some random texture. Still looks blurry.

i think you have misunderstood me smoth. looking at sheek's texture the teamcolour appears to be put on top of a light grey, making it turn pasteley.smoth wrote:Guess what? that is the actual ||||||||||BLUE|||||||||| spring uses.
