Here is a rough plane in .jpg. I work at 800% zoom when doing the details. Using Gimp.

Transparency is lost in .jpg format

Gters -> RE: How i can create... (7/7/2017 9:22:03 PM)

How did you update jptop_alpha? Did you use the same image as jptop or what?
I apologize but I can not understand. However thank you for your help

I am able to create image in jplanetside and jptop)



MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/7/2017 11:10:44 PM)

Ive never added a new plane, just new art for existing planes

http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2188991

download the attachment which are grid overlays. And will help in putting the plane in a correct space.

Then you have to input the stats for the plane and add the plane to a scenario by using the editor.



MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/9/2017 8:44:38 PM)

Just did a A6M2 SenBaku... I may put the yellow on the wings leading edge... and a black cowling

MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/10/2017 1:07:06 PM)

Bmp must be saved without color space information and as 24 bit.


Here is a sky, just drop the plane on it and export(save) as above.

Started using Krita, and trying to use your technique to give plane drawings a 3d look. Can you give a little more how to on getting the 3d look? Iam helping Gters do some Italian planes and would like to match them to your style in Cathartes_Planeside_top_replacement master.zip



MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/11/2017 7:29:43 PM)

After applying light and dark highlights.... mixing and matching different layer effects then layer with the original

MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/11/2017 9:07:18 PM)

I used a fuller brush than a feathered and my strokes were bold and thick, however... Iam beginning to see how it adds up - breeding lots of layers that get back-crossed with the original plane pic.

MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/11/2017 11:28:29 PM)


Who will using the Italian Airplanes.... Italians or the Japanese?



traskott -> RE: How i can create... (7/12/2017 9:39:00 AM)

Search for WitM Mod by Fremen ( airplane art by Dali ), at this forum or in the old Witp, it's include german and italian ships/airplanes.



Gters -> RE: How i can create... (7/12/2017 10:20:07 AM)

Also War in West has Italian aircrafts, But in both modifications there are many Italian airplanes missing and personally I would like them (prototypes too). Well done Makee, I really like your zero dark / light effect.
Currently I want to complete the list of Italian aircraft inside the editor and also pics in jplanetside but i am not able to do a correct background, patience...
Then I try to read the various guides etc. but I have many problems to translate and understand everything.

Thanks I hope to get better at it.


Cleaning up the pics, using copy and past. There needs to be nothing but planes and blue background, then the alpha can be made in a few clicks.

Different Methods...

Gimp control "Eraser"
I. Erase all the color around the plane, then copy and paste the plane to the Jtop.

MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/12/2017 2:29:27 PM)


II. Use "Free Select" to outline the plane, then copy and paste into Jtop.

MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/12/2017 2:34:21 PM)




III. Use "Fuzzy Select" to select the background then Select->Invert to switch to the plane, then copy past into jtop.

MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/12/2017 2:35:08 PM)

And then clean up any edge colors "copy and paste" pixel by pixel.


Keep copies of your original pic and make temporary copies as you make changes.

I do not care much about the background in the main screen / airplane information screen (i mean in the game) but obviously if it were like the original game would be a nice job



If you want a quick alpha to see how the planes look in game here it is.



traskott -> RE: How i can create... (7/12/2017 7:18:24 PM)

There is a 6-engine bomber there?

No, i don't think... the best and great italian's bomber was Piaggio P.108 with 4-engine... I've added it in our mod, both in the editor and also in the pics jplanetside and jptop



Gters -> RE: How i can create... (7/13/2017 12:59:47 PM)

nice job!



MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/13/2017 2:01:10 PM)

Update tops...



MakeeLearn -> RE: How i can create... (7/14/2017 4:20:22 PM)


Savoia-Marchetti SM.89 in process



[image]local://upfiles/55056/90B4A86B3C5449339C211037EB648BE8.jpg[/image]



DOCUP -> RE: How i can create... (7/16/2017 3:21:33 PM)

Are you all thinking about doing the SM. 88 and 91?



Gters -> RE: How i can create... (7/17/2017 11:12:30 PM)

think I'll add SM 91 and 92 but not SM 88, I know during the project this has been transformed into SM 91 or do you have different data?
Well done MakeeLearn... keep working[:D]
