thanks for your feedback.

I improved this tutorial by the new part about the basic structure of a skin file. Now there are no excuses for not knowing what the black shapes are good for! http://muellmann2002.mu.funpic.de/tutorials/skintutorialbasicpreview.jpg

Re: [GRAPHICS] Skin Tutorial (English/German)

very nice addon!

Can you please provide a sample skin.svg for our dear friends? Or do you think that's a bad idea?

Re: [GRAPHICS] Skin Tutorial (English/German)

Personally I think that this is a very bad idea. Everybody should do his or her own sample by following the tutorial on an existing, simple standard skin, like cammostripes or default. If you've done this - and watched the structure tutorial - there is nothing left to explain. And it's really very easy.

For the youtube-generation, there is a video. And let me calculate:

If I was mean, I would say that you drew something ugly big_smile. But I am sure that there's a small fault somewhere. If you paste a screenshot, I'd take a closer look at it.

Re: [GRAPHICS] Skin Tutorial (English/German)

1st: take a look at the structure tutorial (skintutorialbasic.htm) about how the engine uses skin files!
2nd: your file is too small. resize it to 256x128 pixels! (red area is missing)
3rd: arrange all shapes in the corresponding fields. e.g. center the torso in the yellow box:

Re: [GRAPHICS] Skin Tutorial (English/German)

I assume that you did one fault: you didn't check what section was exported. Open the export form (Ctrl+Shift+E) - Check which section will be exported: page, selection, ... Choose page.

Check 19:00 in the video tutorial! Notice how I click "Seite" - the German word for page

Maybe the borderfix utility works, too

Re: [GRAPHICS] Skin Tutorial (English/German)

Would the creator of this guide accept to have his guide placed in the Teewiki?

See www.teewiki.info for more information and http://teewiki.info/wiki/Map_Editor_Tutorial for an example of how your guide can be integrated.

It will provide a new way for people to find information while at the same time be very easy to edit for future changes.

Re: [GRAPHICS] Skin Tutorial (English/German)

@Azon, I'd like to see that done! I will fully support this work and help as much as I can.

Re: [GRAPHICS] Skin Tutorial (English/German)

Hallo Lappi!

Ich rede jetzt mal auf Deutsch kein Bock jetzt mein Gehirn anzustrengen. Ich habe ein Problem und zwar habe ich nach deinem genialem Video Tutorial ein Teeworld Skin erstellt. Soweit so gut in Inscreape sah das Ganze auch super genial aus nur dann habe ich es als Bitmap exportiert. Starte ich jetzt Teeworld und wähle mein Skin aus, bekomme ich ein qualitativ schlechtes Skin. (Bild 1)Meine Frage ist nun, wie ich das beheben kann oder wie ich den Rand wieder vektorisiere bzw. ohne die weißen randpixel darstelle - Ich glaube das ging aus dem Tutorial nicht wirklich hervor deswegen wollte ich einmal Fragen - Ich hoffe du kannst mit die Ursache bzw. wie man das behebt nennen, habe die Datei noch im Inscrape Format (svg?).

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Spriter

Hi Lappi!

I constructed a really cool Tee with Inscrape and the help of your brilliant video tutorial on "How to draw a Teeworld Skin". As far as well; in the programm Inscrape it looked very cool but when i exported it as a Bitmap, it looked very crappy... I switched my Tee in Teeworlds and it looked as the following picture. (picture 1) There are white pixels at the Contour as you maybe can see. My question is: How can i change this? I would like to have a Tee with a vectorized Contour - How can i make a Contour like this? I wanted to ask because i didn't hear something about a mistake like this in your tutorial. I hope you can help me! If its helpfull i also have the .svg.

Greets,
Spriter

PS.: Danke für deine großartigen Tutorials! Es war für mich erleichternt zu sehen wie ich mit Inscrape gutaussehende Tee's leicht erstellen kann!

PS.: Thanks for your great Tutorials! It was a pleasure to hear and see how to use Inscrape for Teeworld Skins!

[EDIT: I added the english Part; EDIT: I didn't check the older posts i know found my problem!]
