Metallic skins help

#1 Post by RodriGM15 » 27 Mar 2017 17:58

Hi!
I´m asking for a video or some screens of how to do a metellic skin. I know that there are pair of topics about this, but I understand nothing :lol: :lol:
I have a pair of questions like:
-I know all I want metallic must be transparent, but, in other metallic skins that I opened from other skinners, it´s black, that´s because of dxt?
-What is a metallic flake noise or something like that?
Thanks for your support!
Cheers

I doubt there is a video.

Could you post a link to the pair of topics about this, plz.

I got metallic to work, but that was a long time ago and I am a bit fogging on how I did it. What paint program are you using? Are you editing the Alpha Channel?

You should be able to see alpha channel in GIMP. Under the "Channels" tab.

Here you go guys this is the how to guide I used to get metallic skins.

For the flake noise you'll need to extract the game files.
