Reskin Problem

Had some one try to reskin one of the CVs from the LED Submod but it did not turn out right at all.

Any idea what went wrong?

- The v30 of the doors isn't edited.

- The numbers on the roof need to be shifted to the left a bit.

The doors arent my concern, and yes they are edited, I just didnt put them on here. I am refering to the fact the whole skin isnt sitting the way it should. It seem off set to one side.

maybe this is asking for the known road but,

Did you removed the old skin data?(not the image, but in Z modeler)

Did you detached the selected polygons from the different array's on what you worked?

EDIT: Did the pivot moved?(perhaps by mistake)

Just a shot in the dark, hope it helps you.

The model was never loaded into zmodeler for reskining. So no it never got altered in those regards and the skin file itself looks excellent.

hmm

did something on the skin file itself moved a bit?

only has to be 1 pixel off to trow your skin off.

Not that I can tell.

It really looks to me as if there is a problem in the model, not the skin.

When you look close at the front wing of the car,

the skin looks flipped around itself, the back door in a way is in the right place just a bit messed up.

So that makes me think, that in the model self there is a problem with the lights, or mapping.

(not saying you did it) but perhaps the owner fixed that problem in another way when he/she encountered it.

That's all i can think about, so if it's not that, i hope someone comes along with a bit more knowledge about it

I checked the edited skin file against the original using zmod and noticed some how the modified skin had been cropped a bit. So thanks for all the hel titan. In the end your suggestions did work.

Whoi!, me did good? (just kidding)

Glad to help, good luck with the skinning

Did you copy a picture or something onto the vehicle? I had this problem when I copied a decal over onto a car and didn't flatten it. The new skin was on but not in the correct place. If that's not the case then sorry I don't know.

Edit-- lol maybe I should read the entire thread, didn't see you fixed it.
