[GRAPHICS][ARMORS] Colored armor ''update'' 26/03/2015

[shadics]

Hey guys! I modified this mod, from MKSheppard https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php?topic=1651.0 With my girlfriend. She made the pink one. (Sorry about my English, I asked her to write this for me)

The reason why we decided to edit this mod, was because it was awesome the idea of colored armors! But when I installed it, I found that It hasn't all the colours available. So, we started editing the commands and introducing the modified sprites, also adding some new details, and it came out good.
I put here some screens for you to see them guys. Hope you like it!

Hi guys! I'm shadic's girlfriend... And i couldn't resist to make some Fan Art of the colored armors xD

So, I'll leave this here...

Remember that movie, Reservoir Dogs?

Mr. Pink: Hey, why am I Mr. Pink?

Joe: Because you're a faggot.

Mr. Pink: Why can't we pick our own colors?

Joe: No way, no way. Tried it once, doesn't work. You got four guys all fighting over who's gonna be Mr. Black, but they don't know each other, so nobody wants to back down. No way. I pick. You're Mr. Pink. Be thankful you're not Mr. Yellow.

Mr. Brown: Yeah, but Mr. Brown is a little too close to Mr. Shit.

Mr. Pink: Mr. Pink sounds like Mr. Pussy. How 'bout if I'm Mr. Purple? That sounds good to me. I'll be Mr. Purple.

Joe: You're not Mr. Purple. Some guy on some other job is Mr. Purple. Your Mr. PINK.

Mr. White: Who cares what your name is?

Mr. Pink: Yeah, that's easy for your to say, you're Mr. White. You have a cool-sounding name. Alright look, if it's no big deal to be Mr. Pink, you wanna trade?

Joe: Hey! NOBODY'S trading with ANYBODY. This ain't a goddamn, fucking city council meeting, you know. Now listen up, Mr. Pink. There's two ways you can go on this job: my way or the highway. Now what's it gonna be, Mr. Pink?

Mr. Pink: Jesus Christ, Joe, fucking forget about it. It's beneath me. I'm Mr. Pink. Let's move on.

Joe: I'll move on when I feel like it... All you guys got the goddamn message?... I'm so goddamn mad, hollering at you guys I can hardly talk. Pssh. Let's go to work.

This is exactly how it went before taking these pictures.

Awesome movies aside, this is a great project. Good job!

Remember that movie, Reservoir Dogs?

ROTFL. Thanks for bringing back memories.

My initial thought was:

"Colored armors? Maybe finally I get the pink one"

Cool job shadics. How about "camouflage armor"? Something as in Ryskeliini's (or Warboy1982's?) armors but implemented in Power Armor technology?

[shadics]

Hey! I tried to make them look good, but it's hard. I'll keep trying, and when i have some good results, i'll upload it!

If you know a better editor than GIMP, i'll be thankfull.

[Falko]

FYI: with my palette converter i made the none/flying/power - armor in all available shades took like 15-20minutes
its not tested was just a "hey i could do that - lets try "-moment
the nice recoloring of the eyesockets you did is not done here its just an automatic color replacement
i do not know what happens with the skin/hair magical-recoloring if you use a armour that uses blondhair/whiteskin-color (base color in armor) in its armor color

if you are you interested i could do the same for personal armor

[shadics]

That would be great!! I appreciate your help!

If you can recolored the personal armor, it could be the darkest tones? And please, could you end the sprites for the Ufopedia panels? Only if you have time, and if it's not a problem


PD: Someone knows how to configurate the power armor for men and woman sprites, without the flying suit armor, and same with the flying suit armor?

Thanks again!

[Falko]

personal armor recolored
Ufopedia panels ?
do you mean the inventory screen?

"PD: Someone knows how to configurate the power armor for men and woman sprites, without the flying suit armor, and same with the flying suit armor? "
there is somewhere a helms-off mod if that is what you want

[shadics]

Yes, was the inventory screen xD

And, i mean the game detect the lower chest sprites for women sprites. And i don't want that.

Spoiler:

[Falko]

colored inventory sprites
14 colors*(2*2*4+2=18)=252 images

i still do not get what you want
if you wish to have the same torso for women and men just copy the men torso at the women position

[shadics]

Me and my girldfriend are very thankfull for your help!! We loved the results!!

And, yeah, that was te way we were editing the sprites. But we wanted to know if theres was another, and easier way to edit them.

Thank you again!!!

[shadics]

[Solarius Scorch]

I love the designs. I think I'll borrow some to make new armour types...

Do these suits come with the helmet off inventory sprite? If they don't, would it be difficult for you to make them? I really think it adds a lot to the game.

[Aldorn]

another update:

These helm off black/blue armors are nice, it could be that I find some idea to use them

Will you provide related stuff ?
