yes, since i'm just learning photography i made that mistake. realised it after i was far away from the object and looked at the foto on the big screen.
i'll re-shoot this rusted piece properly though :)

Thank God For Photoshop

Von, use the dodge and burn tools in photoshop to bring it together, no need to reshoot the image. Dodge makes lighter and burn makes darker. You can get rid of nasty highlites, and other scanner artifacts as well using them.

uh, will try that, thanks
but why not to re-shoot if i can? i have to raise my photoskillz up, to reduce post-shooting image editing as much as i can :)

#1222 posted by Kell on 2003/05/27 08:31:43

Alternatively, you can just scansource an object directly.
And when it comes to seamlessly tesselating the a texture and removing artifacts, use the 'heal' tool ( the lil band-aid icon ); that's what it's designed for.

there is no point to photoshop yourself, leave it to me :)
just make more material shots at the close range and direct angle please

some industrial details at close range would be neice as well

Can Anyone Suggest A Game For Me?

#1224 posted by necros on 2003/05/27 17:55:57

basically, i'm looking for something like System Shock 2.

good, engaging story
SP
Sci-Fi prefered...
attention to detail
made at least after and including 2000.

any thing?

#1225 posted by R.P.G. on 2003/05/27 18:24:11

Played Elite Force? Definitely not scary, but interesting. There's also Deus Ex which everyone should play if they haven't already. None of these are horror, mind you. Undying is a good shot if that's what you're after, but it's more fantasy than sci-fi.

Hmm

#1226 posted by R.P.G. on 2003/05/27 19:00:25

Not related to anything, but...

Here's a text-based adventure game that even incompetents can play: http://digital-eel.com/dod/

It's called Dunjon Of D�m, and is created by Zdim.

Elite Force

#1227 posted by starbuck on 2003/05/27 19:38:19

EF2 looks incredible, download the demo and check it out! Its great and actually enjoyable for non Star Trek fans...

Necros

#1228 posted by nitin on 2003/05/27 19:57:38

Aliens vs Preadtor 2 would be my first recommendation.

and Elite force too. And yes with the talented level/model design team at Ritual, EF2 does look very nice and more importantly playable on my now near ancient gf + p3-733.

Great Engaging Sci-Fi Game

#1229 posted by Vodka on 2003/05/27 23:34:37

fallout 1/2

not Sci-Fi : mororwind

#1230 posted by daftpunk on 2003/05/28 13:58:58

nice work phait. how's your textures doing?

are you making anything atm?

Thanks Guys...

#1231 posted by necros on 2003/05/28 17:52:16

i played the Elite Force demo a year ago, thought about buying it then just plain forgot about it. :P

both Fallouts look cool, but i was really looking for a fp game.

about AvP2, do you need to play the original to get the sequel? (like SS2)

AVP2

#1232 posted by Shambler on 2003/05/28 17:57:47

Nope. Totally self-contained AFAIK. Pretty involving too =).

DX is the closest to SS2 obviously. Other games mention will fit the rest of your criteria.

If you broaden your search to simpler FPS games in fantasy/realish, I'd recommend Undying, Wheel Of Time and RTCW.

I'm Waiting For...

#1233 posted by Wazat on 2003/05/28 19:18:31

Doom 3 and Dino Crisis 3 (XBox, though I don't currently own one). Halo's supposed to have been good but I didn't like what I playtested at the store for 20 minutes.

I'm an older games junkie for some reason. Stuff like Front Mission 3, Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy 7, Dino Crisis, Quake1, etc lights my fancy. Though I really do enjoy the new games, as long as they're a game instead of a graphics engine showoff... Stuff like Metal Gear Solid 2, UT (not 2003), Starcraft, etc.

I liked Ratchet & Clank, too. :)

Hrmm

#1234 posted by . on 2003/05/29 05:24:07

I tried.

I haven't done any Quake related stuff for quite awhile, been focusing on my art.

Quit my job for it... now that's passion! ^_^

Hmm

#1235 posted by nonentity on 2003/05/29 08:01:03

MGS2 was a game?

RTCW: Enemy Territory Released

#1236 posted by Maj on 2003/05/29 09:31:33

Free add-on, apparently (no RTCW required).

<a http://www.fileplanet.com/files/120000/124801.shtml>Linux</a> and <a http://www.fileplanet.com/files/120000/124800.shtml>Windows</a> (cockmongerplanet, sorry).

Meh?

System Shock 2 Rebirth

#1238 posted by R.P.G. on 2003/05/29 10:32:45

With talk of System Shock 2, I thought this deserved a mention for those that didn't see it in #terrafusion:

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/etienne.aubert/sshock/sshock_rebirth.htm

It's a remodelling project that aims to recreate the System Shock 2 models in higher res. It looks really good, and when he releases it I'll reinstall the game and play through it again.

Woah!

#1239 posted by necros on 2003/05/29 15:53:56

coolness! thanks, rpg!

If It Doesn't Require RTCW...

#1240 posted by metlslime on 2003/05/29 16:29:11

then it's not an add-on.

HELP

#1241 posted by Vodka on 2003/05/29 23:39:59

is there any way to retrieve images from photoshop tmp file (in the win/temp folder) after a crash ?
