Some texture I've made.

I could give a try. I havent used a transparency in D3 yet, though. I mean, how does it work? Can you put a texture on top of another?

Hinges in door models are separate polygons put very close to door base. So, all you would have to do with those hinges is TGA file with an additional channel called Alpha1, which would be a mask - white where the hinge is and black for invisible background. And save image as 32-bit TGA of course.

 

If you want to see textures with transparencies in Doom3 change your diffuse stage in material shader to something like this:

 

{
blend diffusemap
map path/image
alphatest 0.5
}

 

instead of regular diffusemap path/image

Ok, here are screens of a metal texture:

Here's a link to the files:

If you want, you may send me those hinges Springheel.

The metal texture is now on SVN (incl. hi_res repository) under the name: textures/darkmod/metal/detailed/fittings_diamond_shaped.

 

Thanks, Arcturus!

 

I also would vote for making Arcturus at least a Contributor, so that I can instruct him on how to add textures to the repository on his hown.

They look good! Thanks!

 

Arcturus do you want to become a betamapper or full team member? The distinction is not nearly that meaningfull anyway anymore, as betamappers already have almost full access to the mod (read-only) while team members have full access, so you can upload your additions directly, without any intermediator. If you keep on doing textures, becoming a team member makes more sense though, because betamappers are more independent. depends on what you plan to do.

[Arcturus]

Well, team member sounds good I'd like to make some more textures for sure, so I think you can sign me in.

[sparhawk]

NH, can you sign him up for team member? If he doesn't see the note, you can send him a PM as well and remind him.

[Arcturus]

Thanks NH! I am browsing team's forum now
