  I didn't know this has happened and not being a designer I wouldn't but, Of course it should be put back in. 

  The designs from the other players are really good and they should be put in the shop when they (the designers) are satisfied that the design is ready to put on sale.

  So I vote Yes obviously.

Thank you for your vote Zuzannah.
The tool was a small program that allowed that wished to make clothes, shoes, boots etc ...
Then the creator had the subject in the "Artist's Alley" and we could discuss it and then it was suggested to the developers as to be able to find it in the shop.

It was an important option of the game for me and of course for the creators.

I personally would like a tool more developped, maybe AChat currently working above as they have accustomed us to pleasant surprises this last days  8)

  I knew about the Tool Nat.  Sorry if I said it like I didn't.  Should have made it more clearer.   :P

  I meant that I didn't know the tool had been removed from the V2 update.

  But yes lets hope there is a Version 2 of the tool as well.

Of course we want it back! This also was one of things we asked the A-Team for. As we see go8d changes, I also have hope that we get it back too.

I'm in.  Voted a big FAT  Hell Yes.

I want all our designers back making us wonderful clothes again and more maps released so  Achat Developers can concentrate on the LBGT poses.

It makes good business sense, come on Achat Gods. We have talented designers here raring to make wonderful  clothes creations for us.  Hone in on their talent.

Hi,
the tool should actually be there since the last upgrade. It can be started e.g. on the 'customize yourself' screen just like earlier. Maybe you cannot change the gender, that will be corrected soon.
Regards,
tom

I would like to ask for a favour, or bring up an idea.

It would be great if by typing "tex" or "dress" in the Customise yoursef area it would change to a dressing room / fitting room.
where you can try on all the clothes in the shop to see how they really look like while wearing.
Honestly, the images in the shop are often suboptimal.

And if we would be able to check out ingame aswell, without going to the website to purchace the clothes. That would be perfect.
I mean the Balance is shown at top of the dressing bar and it is determined which pieces you own... so you have a connection to the "shop DB" already don't you?

So what there is to do is  just to change the "your profile" tab with the "select clothes" tab from the tex-editor and " select* " for the clothes-tab on the right  :)


greetings
Elena

Thank you  Tom for letting  us  know ...

  Good idea Elena. 

  I have bought clothes that I will never wear because they don't look right on me.  So yeah an actual dressing room is an excellent idea.

Thanks Tom, but why don't we get any infos about the updates before or least straight after you published it?

Great idea Elena :)

Hi Lover,
we are sorry, there are a few experimental things in the system, and we don't hurry to announce them before testing and being sure they are useable... actually the cloth editor (?) is one of them... anyway it works now the similar way just like earlier
Regards,
tom

Yayyyyyy Tom,   so our fabulous designers can work again?

That's great news.  I hope they haven't all left in the meantime.

Please could they have access to more maps and then you could concentrate on more poses for our gay and transsexual friends.

Drinks at the AB&G to celebrate And coincidentally ... Hentaiboy's -  AB&G Has Got Talent Song Contest is on -    First drink is on the house,  then the rest go on Covems tab  ;D

Post by: alex65x on August 16, 2015, 01:15:07 AM
i would love to try the tool, is this possible?
Title: Re: Tool for our designers yes or no ?
Post by: Lover on August 16, 2015, 07:05:13 AM
Sure alex, everyone can try it.

How does it work?

When you are logged in, type in the chat window the word 'tex' and press the 'Send message' button or -Enter-.
A new window will be displayed, where you can select different clothes, and save or load the textures of the selected cloth in .png format. To edit the saved texture you can choose your own Application photoshop/GIMP/Paint ..... what you like best.

To help texture editing here you can find UVW maps for the textures:

cloth_UVW.zip (http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/forum/forum_pictures/cloth_UVW.zip)
shoes_UVW.zip (http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/forum/forum_pictures/shoes_UVW.zip)

Using those, you can see how the 3D Models of the clothes look like and know what you have to "paint on".

I really would love to give it a try too, because I do this on another site, but I'm not able to get the maps  :-[, can someone help me out pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee   :-* :-* :-* :-*
Title: Re: Tool for our designers yes or no ?
Post by: Brandybee on September 23, 2015, 07:50:33 AM
Hi Anni,

When you boot up the game, before logging in, you type  "tex" and press the send button or enter. See Lover's post above yours for more directions.

Welcome and good luck.

Oh yessssssssssssssssssssssssss, finally it works...I typed "tex" with a capital T, my bad  ;D

I got the maps too, thank you so much  :-*

Annie, this is part of a post from Tom. You can use the files you download, which most of the designers do. You also can download the original files and try them.

cloth_UVW.zip (http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/forum/forum_pictures/cloth_UVW.zip)

Short explanation about height maps:

Height maps are grayscale textures, where the different grays between black and white mean different 'heights' on the surface, giving the possibility to add the illusion of fine geometry structure (-> bumpy surface). Please save the following height maps and try to load them to the cloth textures, you will see how they create the described effect.

height_map_1.png (http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/forum/forum_pictures/height_map_1.png)
height_map_2.png (http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/forum/forum_pictures/height_map_2.png)

or zipped both together:

height_maps.zip (http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/forum/forum_pictures/height_maps.zip)


After loading the height maps they should appear on the cloth as follows:

working_height_map.jpg (http://www.funnyadultgamesplay.com/forum/forum_pictures/working_height_map.jpg)

If you cannot see this effect that means your video card lacks of required shader functions!
In this case we recommend to get a video card which supports shader model 3.
