Is it possible for people to get their hands on the original layers used by designers?
I know some people like to start from scratch but a lot of the skins I think work well are themes on the original design, especially true if you're keeping the bump maps.
Creating (or re-creating) the layers took probably 2/3+ of the time I've spent on skinning.


Unless they got the .psd files from the contractor who did the original conversion from 2D to 3D, I don't think there's going to be much luck in that department. That's assuming that the contractor even kept layers separated. A lot of designers will just flatten their layers as they work if they use a tablet, which results in very little editability.

That being said, I was considering releasing my .psd's with full layers intact for skins i've worked on. I've developed a pretty good workflow for pixel perfect textures in terms of shape, but it requires generating the UV map in a 3D modeling program and bringing that into photoshop and separating it out per piece. It's a decent amount of work to start from scratch.

I'm withdrawing my previous Samgrahaka submission (if necessary - old 1 skin per ship per person still applies?).

We use the term "domesticated" lightly here.

Also, I have confirmed that people who have their skins chosen to be in the game will also get a free copy of the skin.


Will this ownership of accepted still be happening (seems the skins added in the last patch were from the original skin topic)?

Yes you will, I just was not aware that you had not got your skin reward yet (I was not the one who put your skin in game). Any other players who have their skin designs in the game but have not got their copy of the skin that they designed, please pm me in the forums.
