Off Topic Productions

Hi, if you notice any textures which have not yet been updated past vanilla on the 3d models in the game could you please list them here so I can get on and make some new ones.

Thus far I have created new textures for:

Police boat
Control Panel
Satellite dish
Security terminal
Med kit
Soy food
Binoculars

To do:

Switch 2
lockpick

Anything else you notice please list.

Cheers!

Perhaps the Medkit?

The hand on the first person prod needs updating also - although looking at it a few times, not sure if it does or its meant to look like that.

The switch button and binoculars needs updating too

There are a ton of switches and buttons in dx, could you be more specific?

Switch1? Switch2? Lightswitch? Button1?

I'm going to hazard a guess at switch2, since that's one we don't have a texture for.

Yeah it was switch2, should have said, was only seeing it in the game and didn't remember which it was.

Did you get the hotfix? http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?73f7q7la86sv7fm

Yeah, its the one I am using.

It looked alright the couple of times I've used the prod.

The tall light stands as found in the clinic. Not that they look out of place as is.

Not sure if this is the right place for this, but since this might come under a texture update if touched at all, just curious to why this is, when you hold an item, weapon etc... JC's hands appear brown, however, there is only one face/hands texture where JC his skin is that color (one slightly darker white skin tone) and the rest he is a white guy, so why would JC's hands have that skin color when the rest of him isn't? I know it doesn't make that much of a difference really, just something I noticed.

I thought most of the small generic items were already done (at least one layer of them). For guidance on your request, load up the original HDTP demo map and then poke around. It's a museum-type map which has the original put together with the HDTP-texture they had in that version. They got a large number of small items already (I think most of them by my guess) if my memory serves me right in playing in that demo map.

I wonder if a list can be produced off that map and then compared with a list of all the textures to produce what HDTP is currently missing?

Dude, what.

I coded stuff up (and made special textures) to address exactly this issue. Each and every weapon now checks for what skintone JC has and then reskins the hand appropriately.

I just don't understand why it's not working for you?

Is everyone else seeing this? Start a game as an albino JC, then restart as a black JC, and please tell me you see a difference in the hands.

Seems to work fine on my end.

Started a game with albino JC, activated the pistol, saw the appropriate white skin color on the 1st person hands, used 'legend' to go to 01_NYC_UNATCOHQ, saw the appropriate hand color in the third person mirror reflection as well. Started a new game on the spot, going through all the other appearances. All hand colors seemed to match.

JC remains albino but his right hand, when it has an equipped weapon, is a bronzed Aussie's. It was darker in vanilla DX anyway wasn't it? I haven't tested the different JCs yet.

The black JC's weapon hand is a few shades darker I think, like I said the JC I have has a bronzed Aussie look but he's not the albino version just your everyday variety of white dude.

Extra: I haven't the time now but I'll try to get a screenie up later today.

Just checked, it works fine on the Albino JC (have never really played as albino JC before so didn't know you changed that), what I actually mean is this. On the default JC, he has pink skin tone, but first person equipped weapon hands are still brown (Was going to post a screenshot earlier but the sshot thing doesn't work for me for some reason to get shots and print screen wasn't working well either until I went off fullscreen and did this.

I suspect it's a lighting/renderer issue, then. What looks hugely different texturewise looks subtle/nonexistent in-game.

Also, the weapon hands are default (i.e. original) if you have default skin. It's just that the new default skin is paler than the original. Probably.
If anyone wants to make better weaponshandstexes, be my guest.

Below is the current range, more or less.
