Not very complicated or delicate, but how's this?

Ooh, nice job man. I'm all jealous!

Quick question: what craft do you guys find the easiest/most enjoyable to design? Some of the dual-engine ships like Qirex & Goteki have a greater surface area, but in my opinion single engine ships look cooler.

it makes little difference to me from an enjoyment stance, but single hulls are definitely easier.
speaking of which, I took a stab at this request too:

click the image for a larger version, click here (http://helix.net.nz/~lion/Pictures/WipEoutZone/hl2egxskin.png) to get the skin

As I have never played HL1, I made it based off some HL2 stuff
I was going for it looking like a human craft that the combine had tacked some of their technology onto. the armor at the rear is mostly in colours used on the combine APC.
There's a lot of details that I put in that are simply not visible in the final result. I need to use more contrast in my work

the results can be amusing.. an assegai smeared with bits of my 2097 qirex skin for example... it doesn't work too well, but then it only seems to appear before the race? once on the track I've seen them revert to the standard skin

Dogg Thang
10th January 2008, 07:56 AM
Yeah, I'm not quite sure how it works. Sometimes peoples skins transfer over completely fine. Other times not. I love seeing peoples skins online though. It's a real treat.

I have started to collect immages of the best skins since the beginning. Two folders: one with pictures for 3d presentation and annalysis, and one with folders containing the 2d blueprint and best 3d shots most of them downloaded from CR4SH3D’s site.

Still appart from gorgious designs with a lot of personality , some skins of the former ships have been presented like Dogg Thang’s Qirex/Piranha prototype from F5000.

I’m thinking of :

Flashback Jack’s AGSYS FX300 Champion
supersocks Goteki45 F7200
Lion’s Qirex2097
Sausehuhn’s EG-r

If by any chance they are not your personal racing skin i’d love to have them in my collection so please could you upload them on CR4SH3D’s site or here.
Also , as odd as it may sound i think that it would be great to have all the former skins in the previous games, what do you think? Anyone whith sucicient PhotoShop experience upthere?

And one more thing, did any one figured out a way to have more then 5 custom skins at a time saved in game?

Lion
10th January 2008, 11:55 AM
does it save them on a per-profile basis? that could allow you to keep multiples of 5 on your psp. keeping more than that on wipeout-game.com is probably a bad idea though.. if the skins per user decision was based on storage limitations

Ricanebleu
10th January 2008, 12:06 PM
yes i think it could. The files are numbered TEAMSKIN0000, 1, 2, 3, 4 so i hoped that if i put a 5 or a 6 in the back it would save them but nope. The unfortunate part is that the site has flows , for example i can't have slot 4 and 5 at the same time, one reads error when saving. also if you have dowloaded a skin and you try to copy it for an other card it won't read.

my point is that instead of resaving 5 slots all the time it would have been nice to have an army of skins all the time, just imagine 4G full of ships :dizzy.

in site , no, i have no use of storring them, wy should i ? in my PSP , well there is an other story :)

that would be cool, after all it does improve your reaction time ;)

i wouldnt mind a kinda anime/vector art skin with the panels marked out for ag-sys. something that has the same "feel" as the style of wip3out and with the wip3out ag-sys logo, that would be awesome :)

Could somebody design me a Misato Katsuragi themed AG-SYS? Anybody?? I'd love you forever (in an enslaved-by-gratitude sort of way). I seriously lack the photoshop know-how and the time to learn...

Hey, if I upload drawings, can someone better at skinning than I make the skins I doodle down?

Possible for anyone to make a Red Bull Assegai skin?I might have to give that a go. I have some red bull here for inspiration now ;)


Could somebody design me a Misato Katsuragi themed AG-SYS?an AG-Sys sponsored by NERV maybe? if you could sketch out anything along the lines of what you'd like it would make things easier


Hey, if I upload drawings, can someone better at skinning than I make the skins I doodle down?no promises, but it would definitely be easier. I've taken to sketching my own ideas before I start now.

15th January 2008, 04:16 PM
I tried to scrape together what I had in mind - the right side as the "personal" side of the ship and the left side as the "Nerv captain" side, with the scar tying it together. I took Stew2000's template, changed the colour to black, added in text and the Nerv logo (but couldn't get it all to quite fit...). It needs...help.:lol

I don't know if you could try adding something to this, or whatever...but here's what I was thinking, sort of.

CR4SH3D and I worked together quite a lot on this one. I think we're both quite pleased.

EDIT: Sorry about the image. The first few jpgs at that resolution that I posted from the psp photo mode were all well under 50k and after a while I stopped checking. Won't happen again.

so much for my old Wip3out Feisar, that has got to be one of the best ive seen. :+

could someone make a template for the assegai ship, so i know where everything goes, if it was done in block colours it would be good. I ask as the templates from the site use too many different colours to be easily moddable for n00bs like me :D, also could someone make a black hole/supernova skin with realityhole down one side, maybe make it similar to the alternate assegai skin (white & blue) but in really dark blue thats almost black but u can still see the blue and silver or something similar.

Would someone like to design 2 skins for me?
I have tried several times, but i simply cant use the design interface!
I would also be very appreciative, and can offer a legal styleXP key in return (StyleXP is an OS win XP skinning app. I can offer it due to a deal i have with the people at StyleXP through my website)

I would like two skins, both black and white with some orange shaded streeks.

One with my own personal name, Relequestual (or just REL if thats slightly too long)
and a second with my website name, AppAholic.co.uk

ANY ideas will make me go like this :D

As far as I understand, you cant use any external editing apps. Is that correct or have i missed something?

oh yeh, assegai ships please. I would ask for Icaras, but... well you know why *waits for packs to contain icaras ship*

you can use other programs to edit, like ms paint, photoshop, paint shop, etc..

click on http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/1794/colorst9.jpg to bring up the color wheel, then click http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/9382/copyqe5.jpg. (that will copy the skin as a 256x256 image ) open up your program of choice, and press ctrl-v or whatever it is to paste. after you are done, copy the image you have made in the program, then click http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/3279/pasteva1.jpg in the editor to paste it onto the ship.


hope that helps :)

well I got Medusa's skin made.
but I wasn't happy with my first attempt (http://helix.net.nz/~lion/Pictures/WipEoutZone/katsuragishots.png), so I made a second design (http://helix.net.nz/~lion/Pictures/WipEoutZone/katsuragi2-preview.png).
The second one is a lot simpler, but I think it is a lot stronger :)

Time to start on that RedBull Assegai :)

Does someone want to throw together a "Weekly TT Challenge" skin for piranha? That would really be cool. Wipeoutzone logo too

I was wondering if someone would like to take up the challenge of making me a custom Triakis skin. Here's what I'm looking for:

-Silver, Black, and White color scheme
-This emblem on it but crimson instead of grey (http://tn3-1.deviantart.com/fs5/300W/i/2004/319/5/8/Tribal_Wolf_by_Ulvrik.jpg)
-And on one of the front spires the words "Fenrir Sabre"

I hope this isn't too difficult, and if anyone could help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it. Also, if you have any other ideas to spruce it up and make it look even cooler, please feel free. Thank you in advance.

Anyone want to make a wipeout convention color scheme. Something with an Amsterdam color scheme (red/black or red/white) with the XXX logo, which I can provide.

Nothing fancy, something simple. Just too lazy to do it, and much too lazy to do it right

Saying you're too lazy to do it yourself while expecting others to do it for you is an interesting motivating tactic.

Now saying im "expecting" is stretching what I said I bit.

I'm also not as skilled as some of the artists here, and they would do a much better job.
