wait how does one create these alt modes?

[Redimus]

Good question.

Im sure someone posted how to in this thread... somewhere.

[Tammuz]

windy did somewhere in the first 5 pages i think

the way i do it is to cut out the image you want to alt with photoshop and then create a second layer on top of it containing tyres, windscreens, all the details i want in black

then shrink it to 45x45 and 25x25 then apply colour overlays over the the two layers; black for the details, and colour for the main body

and then apply a 3 pixel black stroke around the image.
i then turn visibilty of the overlay

and then save it as a gif using the settings windy provided(i'll dig them out)

EDIT: dug(or rather found them on my harddrive)

save as gif
palette=exact
Forced=Black and white
Transparancy=yes
options equal none
press ok then
Row order=normal

and now to check they work Blitzwing; TA alt mode

Stickied b/c there's good stuff here and I don't want to have to retrieve it from the grave a couple months from now!

[Dr. Caelus]

Would you guys like me to attempt to split this thread into a request thread and a completed thread?

I haven't messed around with the split-thread-function since Seibertron was reformatted, but I might be able to figure it out.

[Tammuz]

also could we please make sure that any alts created have a Black and white copy to make it compatible with the colourchange options

[Waylander]

had a little time today,so i goofed off some,but if someone could fix these some by changing the file to .GIF and cut the white out to see how they turn out that would be grate,or add detail,if need be your call. I would do it my self but cannot with this THING i use to surf the web.

[kaworu]

Do you use these in the game? And if so, how?

[Symbiote Spiderman14]

No most of these are just one we would like to see added in the game at some time these are the ones for your faction and they rotate every other Tuesday http://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar ... tmodes.php

[Tammuz]

And they have to be a colour gif, but using only Black and white

[DeltaSniper]

Sorry if this is a noobish question

But if you make an alt mode can you use it?

[-Soundwave-]

It would have to be approved and uploaded to the data base, then you might have to wait for the alt rotater to bring it up. So it is possible, but sometimes can be a long process.

[kaworu]

Cheers.

I know this isn't probably much better than the Supra alt i attempted, but i wanted to do it for fun cause im in the mood to mess around a bit while listening to the new Disturbed. I'm also pretty sure the boarder needs work.
