thespungo Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 I can't seem to find this anywhere on the boards, so i'll ask away here: What are the kinds of BMP's to use as the picture and alpha in MVPedit. Like, 128x128, 16 bit, 24 bit, grayscale, what are all the settings I need in order to get the portraits with transparent backgrounds? Right now all i'm getting are white backgrounds with transparancies where the head should be. Any help would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbully Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 By no means is this the right or correct way but here's how I do it - mind you this is only if I'm doing 1 or 2 players... Make the portrait 128x128, make the background transparent and save as psd (PhotoShop). I keep one portrait fsh on my desktop at all times - I'll just use EA Graphics Editor to import my psd file. Then right-click on the fsh (on my desktop) and open with nfshtool...the creates a folder. Inside that folder are the 2 bmp's you'll need to add portraits w/MVPEdit.

jscand Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 Make the portrait 128x128 bmp Double click on the player's portrait. Add your pic and use the default 8 bit alpha that is included in MVP Edit. You could also make an 8 bit alpha mask and use that instead to remove the background and have it look like the other portraits in the game.

ataris812 Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 Here is a link to a tutorial on how to do the faces from the FAQ section of this site. It is probably more than what you needed to know, but it is very useful. http://www.mvpmods.com/faq/index.php?actio...&artlang=af Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
