[RELEASE] Custom Harbor Patrol boat.
« on: June 10, 2007, 17:29:47 »

Hello,

this weekend I've been working on this :D. It's all done with the awesome program Paint! It's a harbor patrol boat in the colors of the QM2 xP. This is my first edited object ever =). Hope you like it.

I'd love it if someone could give me tips how to make it look better xP. Please no tips like "Use Photoshop" because I have no idea how it works xP, and no you do not have to teach me =).

Download link:

http://www.sendspace.com/file/jest1p

Note: Go to C:\Program Files\Vstep\ShipSim2006\Actors\act_dynamic_objects and paste the .dds in there to get it ingame.

Please PM me if anything is wrong with the download link.

Pictures: EDIT: The pictures are resized, they're smaller then they are supposed to be o_o.







Enjoy xP

I tried this, very good ;)

Unfortunately, I don't create my own missions, never really felt the need lol

Looks good though :)

Regards.

I downloaded an easy skin to edit on www.shipsim.net (the HMS Echo).
I converted it into a .png image by using a DDS converter.
Then I started coloring it with paint xP. It's a really careful work though, and a pain in the @ss o:.
When I was done I converted the .png image back to .dds and put it in my ShipSim folder, and voila =D.

The DDS Converter 2:

http://filebeam.com/8bbdf4017ad707fd673900f2e38d1bb4

Please PM me if anything is wrong with it.

How it works:

First you need WinRAR to unpack it.
Google it, it's easy to find.
Then rightclick the converter (when it's still a .rar) and click Extract Here.
Then a folder called DDS Converter 2 will be created. Open it and you'll see DDS Converter 2.exe. Open that. Then if you want to extract a .png image to .dds, look at the bottom of the DDS Converter. It says: Output format : *now you can choose what*. If you want .png to .dds click search for your .png, highlight it, and put Output format to .dds. Then press convert and your .png changes into .dds =).

.dds to .png is exactly the same. Highlight your .dds, change output format to .png and convert =).

Also I pmed this to you xP. Maybe more people wanted to know.

I see the Cunard company name and the logo on the texture you just have added.
Nice addition! ;) Is that content fictional or are you using the real comany name of the ship owner? :)

Yes, I know that. And you use the Ciunard company name and the logo with permission from them I guess... 8)
