el badman's tattoos: TECHNICAL PROBLEM - DONE WITH LIVE 07

boozer?

I'd like to, but like I said above, he already has a tattoo file in plyrtat.viv, and it's a completely different method in that situation (when adding a tat to existing ones).
If anyone can give me some hints on how to do this, I'll be glad to try it out...

you mean that he has a tattoo on hes shoulder already?
or just tat viv file? if that viv file and tattoo is somewhere else then its not a problem,you can change the skin anyways,tattoo stays.

I mean he has a tat file already in plyrtat.viv, which means I can't use the same method (overwriting the player's default skin with a customized tattooed skin by changing his muscle definition in .dbf), or I would need to redo all his tats that are already in the game, and well, that would take quite a while.
I'll try another tutorial maybe...
Wagner, Aldridge and a Barnes update should be next.
Sorry, I'm still new at this...

el badman, an option would be; if you're willing to re-do the tatoos already in the game on, for example, Boozer. Instead of saving your file as armXXbase.fsh, save it as cabooze_arm_tat.fsh and put it in the sgsm. That does the trick.

PS - don't overwrite a default armxxbase.fsh file with the tat file. If you need a default tatoo file to write over, let me know.

Do you use the sweat patch by Pdub?

Great tattoes , makes the game much more fun and realistic , love it.
If you want here is a good picture of T-Mac's tattoes if you want to make an update

awesome, thx dude

Hmm, that's the thing, I'm not sure I'm dedicated enough to re-do existing tattoos (especially cuz EA's are much nicer), but we'll see, I'm checking another tutorial and I'll give it a try. At least, I can definitely create new tats for players who didn't have any.

Yes, I do

Thanx for the feedback and the pix, like I just said, I need to figure out a way to add tats, and not just creating them.

Here's a preview of Aldridge (his is not very clear in real life), and I made 2 new forearm tats for Barnes, plus I redid his left arm tat (and I'm still missing some!):

Thanx for the interest guys!

Great work bro , keep it up

Very nice!
Keep it up

Very nice!
Keep it up

Thanks guys, much appreciated!
After reading other tutorials, I'm definitely gonna have a hard time working on tats for players who already have a tat file in the game, since I don't have photoshop, so I dunno, I'll figure it out...

Here are Keith McLeod and Dajuan Wagner's previews:

you done a great job!
Is it possible to do for every players arms that lighting?

Thanks Darman
Well, they should all have the same lighting since I used Pdub's sweat patch for all of them, but the visual differences are mostly due to the quality of the pix I could get... I had a great pic for Barnes' tat

Here's Solomon Jones' tattoo, plus Andreas Glyniadakis' cyberface:

These tats are cool as hell man. You're my hero for doing Maxiell's.

Glyniadakis's face is shiny. I dont thinkm u did the alpha lighting thing.

Haha, thanx a lot OleEnglish, I wish I could have used a better picture tho...

True, I tried to keep using the same method, but I got confused with the 2 alphas and the 2 bhed, so I gave up, sorry

Here are Charlie Bell and Mo Williams' tats:

I'll probably keep making a few for myself, but if anyone's interested, I can upload them...

I want 'em all, and any you do in the future.

@el badman
can i apply this tat's to my created player????

Can you do Rafael Araujo's arm tats?? If so, please send me 'em in 512 resolution.

You can apply them to whoever u want as long as your player has the same color than the .fsh you're using, and you just need to change your player's MUSCLETEXT in appearance.dbf. For example, if your player has a color of 2, change his MUSCLETEXT to 4 and he'll have Matt Barnes' tattoos (if you've dumped his .fsh in your sgsm of course ).

I assumed the game had his tats...I'll find some pix and work on it.
