Noticed a couple things I want to give feedback on, 0:08 - "Treat materials as separate textures" box is unchecked, ( Make sure that box is checked, each material of the mesh will be treated as separate UV set/texture) 0:10 - You didn't save the camera view. ( Once you have your skin centered in an orthographic view, on top right you have [CAMERA] button, click Add Camera Shortcut or CTRL + UP. That way you won't lose projection ). ( Also before editing in photoshop, save 3Dcoat file in case of 3Dcoat crashing ). 0:47 - You do not have to crop individual layers. ( If you did the step from 0:08, you will be able to delete parts in 3D coat and paint them too. Instead of cropping zebra/tiger pattern, you could delete it in 3Dcoat. ) ( Why is cropping bad? Sometimes there are important parts on the backside or on top of the weapon, you just don't wanna crop it in photoshop but instead, save the file, go back to 3Dcoat and delete them with 3Dcoat eraser ). 1:04 - Do not paint buttons like this. - The same goes for 1:34 and 1:53, 3:58, 4:00, you do not have to paint those in photoshop. ( Copy color hex code and paint those with 3Dcoat brush. Make sure glossiness and depth are turned off in 3Dcoat brush ). ( Why is painting like that bad? You paint will project on the backside too for no reason, simply in 3Dcoat just paint the button with 1 click with the brush ). 4:27 - 24bit vs 32bit ( We haven't seen you make a custom alpha channel for the P250, if you do not have Alpha channel, you don't need 32bit tga file ). ( 32bit tga reads Alpha ( how skin will wear in-game ) while 24bit doesn't )). Hope some stuff from here helped you! :) Good luck making skins
Hey man thanks a lot for this in-depth response, it really helped a lot. I`ve added you on steam (steamcommunity.com/id/portercoldsauce/), I wish i could ask you some questions about skinmaking if you have some time for that of course, if you dont - just ignore me. much respect
How is your top layer the lightmap but all the ones below it are showing up colored, when i do it the lightmap is on top and i cant see any colors unless i move it below the layers i colored on, also, when i bring it back in 3d coat the top of my pistol isnt painted
m8 i wanna get into skin makin and would really like for u to make a decent tutorial,just like in this video but with actual in depth description other helpful stuff.I think it would be really nice and extremely helpful to us all.
This is what I'm pro at but I'm struggling to work out how you create that easy to edit texture template.. the normal ones are a real mess. I'm good with vehicle liveries for games, they all looked like cars and boats though.
@@Jonathan-vu4oj Those textures are from Adobe and are royalty free. It isn't done by a private person and are royalty free. I talked with someone who has a few accepted skins in cases, and he confirmed my thoughts. Aslong as you don't download any custom materials made from someone and just stick to the ones who exist.
Anything that is asset and not the full art is fair play tbh. If you are blatantly using just one piece from somewhere then it's not fair but if you combine many elements to create a different vibe then it's fair game

Hmm can you make more?

Bro i have to ask if there is a limit in how many color you are able to use on your skins?
No there isnt for custom paintjob
Didn’t you copy textures? Isn’t that not allowed
If it's under public domain it doesn't matter
@@7777688daniel1 no that's not true, u are supposed to make all of them by ur self
