So what's the skins name? have you completed a readme? added screenshots? packed it in a rez file?


That is.. if you plan to release it to the 'public'  Wink

Hmm,there is around 80 active players nowadays.Not bad for this old game.But game need something new,today modern and popular games have lot of custom stuff and other things,avp2 didnt get anything new except master server patches(if you count that as something new).This game have a lot of potential and still it can bring players.


Yeah there are people still playing, but there isn't a demand for mods anymore. Back in the day people would post ideas for mods and talk about it a lot in forums (even those who couldn't make mods). Also the big sites that supported AvP2 has dwindled down big time. Now there seems to be only two; AvPUnknown and AvPGalaxy (on their forum at least).

It's hard enough to get people to grab the master server patch to play online. Getting them to check out new mods is even harder.

Now don't get me wrong. I'm not saying don't make mods for the game. I want them still! I'm just suggesting that any mod/skin/map you make should be made for your enjoyment first. If others want it, then share by uploading somewhere for download. I'm sure x-M-x would feature it if its cool. Smiley

also if anyone is wondering avp supports textures up to 1024x1024, so you can make a skin with much higher resolution than it had originaly, this has a dramatic effect on model skins for example



this is one of the experiments i did recently, it wouldnt be even possible to get this detail with the original resolution of the pulse skin.

so in theory you can have "HD" versions of all the skins in the game

I forgot the exact file, but I'm pretty sure it is in AvP2/Spritetextures/SFX/Particles/

Check the smoke textures in there.
