SlaveTats

[grifterrik]

The biggest problem I'm running into is finding the "seam" on the side of the body.  There's alot of overlap (or underlap, really) in the texture, so finding the border is a little tricky.

 

After my second in-game check i'm 3 inches (scale) off.  I can work with that 

 

I'm using Kendo's Jiggly too.  High five for same body!

Finding seams is a problem, yep.

 

So maybe this might help...

I added a new grid that has numbers every five steps rather than just on the edges. Really, I should have done that to start with. Makes finding positions of things a hell of a lot easier.

 

 

See:

So finding seams on the butt, for example:

Becomes easier. Looks like the butt seams are approximately here:

To see where the seam is in-game so you can work with it in a texture editor, you might need to use a pose mod... for example, the side-of-body seam would be a lot easier to see if your character raises her arms.

Moin,

If you want to make seamless Tattoos:

1. Download and install latest blender(2.7x)
2. Download nif-plugin alpha from niftools site.
install...

Make a folder for your work.
copy femalebody_1, head(if have one), hands feet. in that directory.
make the \textures\actors\character\female directorys in that folder.
copy all the female relevant texture files in there.

Start blender.
Import Body, head, feets etc.
You should downscale all the imorted nifs. 0.025 did it for me.

Even if you created a tattoo with that grid, blender may help top solve some issues.

In  texture paint you can smoothen, smear etc. especially work on the seams.

 

May spare you a lot of time.

 

You can project a tattoo(image/invert it) on body parts and place them where you want.

I am testing it now... as soon as i have time i do detailed tutorial inthe tut section of LL.

Not really. I can tell you that the blueness is what the Skyrim engine does when we ask it to apply a texture that it can't find, or can't read. When that happens, it inverts the color of the model, probably as a way to give feedback to the engine coders, to help with their debugging.

 

So, for whatever reason, your Skyrim isn't finding the tattoo texture file. How and why, I don't know... your problem seems unique.

[WaxenFigure]

Is it possible to increase number of slavetats-slots? 6 on body are very-very little for me ^^

Re-read the original post. When you see the first bit of green text pay special attention but take the time to read the whole post so you don't ask silly questions.

Hi, created someone SlaveTats looks like written brush? Similar font as the pictures?

 

Thanks

[blackelf]

Slave tats works with custom race, even if it has it`s own meshes and texture(in different files). But if .nif file has two NiTriShape it only aplies for the first.

Is there a way to apply it to second NiTriShape? Or is there a way to add more area ("Calves" for example)?

If the mesh is that weird... proobably not. I haven't looked into it, but I don't know of any way to target unusual nodes.

 

For the second part of the question, it's already possible to put tattoos on calves, though the UV distortion is pretty bad there. It just falls under the body category.

Hi

I just have this save-game-bloat thing http://www.loverslab.com/forum/39-skyrim-technical-support/Is it possible to make to many on NPC's So the game bloats?

 

Im using this a lot so........

 

Thank you

Yeah in vanilla body it`s true, but when  "calves" is other NiTriShape and has own texture, it`s either body or calves. Well another great idea goes south. Thanks anyway.

SlaveTats doesn't have any long-running scripts, except for the trivial one that interacts with MCM. That makes it one of the least likely to bloat your save mods around.

Can you post the link to that tutorial? It seems like I searched everywhere, but can't google any decent info. on a subject like  'project 2D image onto 3D surface'

 

Though, that might be an answer, IDK

Step-by-step guide will very much be appreciated, since I cannot even open .dds file with both blender 2.74 and 2.49b... I tried youtube-guides to install python, nif plugins and stuffs, but somehow it is impossible for me to make it work.

blender creates png..

 

So just use gimp to convert them to dds.

You have to download the dds plugin for gimp.

Aye, I can do gimp part, but part before that - opening skin texture file and 'folding' it into 3D model is a mystery to me.

[wex969]

guys i need help i installed slave tats but when i open the game see the menu but i cant do anything 

[InfamousNate]

I ran across something a little confusing this morning when I ran a ASCU8 virus scan this morning.  ASC quarantined a dds file from one of the files on the download page; specifically: 

 

Steamapps\common\Skyrim\Mod organizer\Downloads\Doomsman-denial.7z=>textures/Actors/Character/slavetats/Denial/Dontcum.dds

 

The strange part is that it only quarantined the file in the archive contained in the downloads folder, but not the installed mod in the mods folder.  This also happened with two of The Coenaculi SlaveTats archives as well; .dds files only.

 

I added the files to the Whitelist, but does any know why these .dds files would be flagged in the first place?

I have a small request: 

 

Is it possible to add "skin color" support to the color palette?

Sadly, it doesn't seem to be possible to change which values are presented by the MCM color picker.

In the Succubus Quest mod is a "use skin color" function in MCM.

Oh, I see what you mean. Okay, but... why?

 

[EvilReFlex]

I want to make different skin parts like nipples, scales... but it would look much better with skin color.
