Wings and Manes on Presets
« on: January 08, 2012, 05:23:32 pm »
After a very long time of playing on the game, I've finally started making presets.  The tail, eyes, head and body work perfectly, yet, I've looked at other people's presets and finally realized..

My wings and manes are definitely not right.
They are too 'papery'.
Granted, some say that the wings look papery anyway, but this one seems to be missing half of the mesh. Same for the mane.

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. Any ideas to help little ol' me? :)

I'm not sure what you mean by papery. Maybe there are pieces sticking out where they aren't supposed to, or something like that? All I can guess is that maybe there is something wrong with the preset, or else it has to do with the model. I don't know much about this stuff unless, with the mane, part of it is supposed to be invisible and others not? We will just have to wait and see if someone else knows. Any ideas, people?

Its the shadings, if I am taking the right guess. Go to your media, then your models, and there ought to be a shading for mane, and wings, Hope this helps :]

By papery, I mean its completely flat, almost like it's missing half the mesh. And yes, there are pieces sticking out where they shoudn't be. I doubt its to do with the preset, and the model is fine on the non-preset character creator. And, I'm not trying to make anything invisible.
I can post a picture if you like, so you can see what I mean.

I doubt its the shading, since I do what others do and apply them with another layer. Also, in media>models, there is just skeletons and meshes. I can't see any shading.

hmm... well, all I can say if its about the preset is maybe fh thinks a certain color is suposed to not show up? like with the markings, the part of the marking that you don't see in-game is the black part when you look at the picture of it. other than that, I think you need help from more experienced people, as I have made only body, head, tail, and face presets. I never got around to making a mane, as white looked pretty good already, and the wings had not come out yet. so, lets hope this gets noticed more.
