Title: So I make presets...but for whatever reason the mane texture derps
Post by: _nightingale_ on October 15, 2013, 12:38:13 am: I'm having mane texture issues ;_;

I've tried different codes for it and it still doesn't work...

Anyone got an idea how to fix it?

Here is what I see :

Code I used :

material preset_4_maneMat
{
technique
{
pass
{
cull_hardware none
cull_software none
alpha_rejection greater_equal 128
texture_unit
{
texture AngelMane.png
}
}
}
}

and also this one :

material preset_8_maneMat
{
   transparency_casts_shadows off
   receive_shadows off
   technique
   {
   pass
   {
   cull_hardware none
   cull_software none
   alpha_rejection greater_equal 128
   texture_unit
   {
   texture Hackersmane.png
   texture_unit
   }
   }
   }
}

But if you are talking about those sharp areas in the hair that looks like rectangles then that's how its suppose to be I think.

Post by: SteampunkWolfdog on October 15, 2013, 04:35:54 pm: This code seems to make preset manes more or less normal.

Code: [Select]
material preset_4_maneMat { technique { pass { cull_hardware none cull_software none alpha_rejection greater_equal 128 texture_unit { texture preset_4mane.png } } } }
I can see that half your code it already like this, but I'm not certain what the top coding is meant to do o.0

May I see the mane you used? (A screenshot of the preset mane)

Post by: Feareh on October 15, 2013, 08:24:24 pm: From the looks of the picture it looks like you have some spaces in your hair file that have been erased.

NOTE: there is a mane png in the spoiler, its just so darn black you cant see it :p
try this out and see if it works. It could just might as well be the hair file you are using

Post by: OreoHeroz on October 15, 2013, 08:28:59 pm: I will also suggest something else of what ninja said,

Maybe you need to erase the outer lines of the mane? Not using the erase button, but taking the color you want to use and tracing over the line. I don't know if that will work, but that is what I do when the lines show.

Post by: Sherlockian on October 15, 2013, 08:40:57 pm: I've quite commonly found that, when I've had this happen with my manes on presets (the little white outlines) it's because I used the 'Fuzzy select tool' (this is what it is called in gimp, usually called the 'wand' tool on other programmes) to select the mane and then colour in, leaving white outlines. My solution is instead of using that to select it, instead just lock the alpha channel, or opacity or whatever it's called on your art programme and then colour in that way. Always has worked for me. Hope this helps. ^^

Post by: _nightingale_ on October 15, 2013, 08:51:08 pm: ok, I used Photoshop for this, and maybe I did erase to close, but I don't really think its that...my friend was able to fix it before without editing the file, so i'm not sure what it could be...
