Actually, could the textures for primary/secondary items be updated as well? The reason I ask is that there are a number of old world shields which look rather shabby (the Small Round Shield, Charred Guardian Shield, Devlas Ilkvel, etcetera). If you could sharpen up the graphics for the shields in the way you've improved the armor textures on the human models then any player who can use shields could benefit from your work.

Thanks for the recent screenshot updates.

Nice work on the leather too, what a vast improvement!

Sorry for the lack of communications recently. My main job has for the past 2 months taken nearly ALL my free time. I was only able to work on the textures a little here and there. Thankfully my main job has scaled back some and I will begin to work more diligently on these texture updates.

As to the texture processing, I like it! First release will include this type of processed textures as stand-ins.

Glad to hear there is some renewed interest in this! I've been away a little bit but have been keeping tabs on this post quite a bit.

Xevin, are you still working on Robes too? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Please sticky this topic. This project needs to be a community one in order to finish it in a reasonable amount of time, and in order to garner more interest we need the thread visible.

I'd love some more help to get this thing done faster, but only have Nysus helping me so far. I don't think that there are that many people on the server that really know Photoshop that well. =/

Yes I'm still working on this. My main computer has been down for a few weeks now and that has sorta thrown a wrench into the engine. I'll be back at it once I fix my computer.

I'm happy to know that there are people still interested in this despite the EXTREMELY slow progress I'm making. Your interest keeps me motivated. =P

These are fantastic, and I'd hate to see them fade into obscurity. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
