Re: First Customs advice?

I love GIMP too. Use it for art type things.

For heroscape though I made an applet thats hosted online just to speed it up. Always thought it took ages to set text boxes up in GIMP.

Re: The Akatsuki Project

Probably a stupid question but what would a figure maker be required to do?

My sculpting skills are still pretty weak (just starting out, fancied trying something new) so I'm not looking to fill...

Re: nyys custom figs

Those ants look pretty cool! I like the idea of having a swarm of those guys.

Think if you added Squish you'd have to increase defense or they would just automatically die against most figures....

Re: Street Fighter Customs: Group picture included

Added the group photo of the figures I've made so far.

I'll up Honda by 10 points then. Seems fair. Reckon Zangief is going to end up being really expensive. So is Akuma.

I plan on giving Akuma...

Re: Street Fighter Customs: Added E Honda and M Bison

Might just leave her at 90 points then. She could be a pretty decent squad killer but weak against decent heroes. Seems fair.

Finished sculpting a couple of new figures. Starting to get slightly...

Re: Street Fighter Customs

Good point. I'll update that when I make the cards for the other figures.




Thanks, I'm trying to take their unique moves and somehow port them to HS. Its going to be tricky to make them...

Re: HS Card Factory - New URL! It's still alive!

I'm trying to keep file sizes down as you have to download the whole app to work. Its already 700k. I was working on maybe putting the marvel blanks in but with a code based way to alter the hue and...

Re: HS Card Factory - New URL! It's still alive!

Actually, I've just tried to compile it with java compiler compliance for 5.0 so it may at least open now. Give it a shot and let me know how if it works. Everything I have is at 1.6 so I can't....

Re: HS Card Factory - New URL! It's still alive!

Not really. It needs java 1.6 to run because of the transparency of figure images.

I have 10.4 myself, you should just be able to get java 1.6 from the software update. Safari should work fine...

Re: HS Card Factory - Updated 23/06 (Customs applet)

I couldn't afford the webhosting so I had to cancel it.

Didn't realise anyone still used it.

I've uploaded it at the following address so it can be used on a free webhosting account.

Re: HS Card Factory - Updated 23/06 (Customs applet)

Yeah, its not too hard to just put new templates in as long as they arent too long. I was looking into finding a better way of storing the templates but have been busy with work.

Hmm. That is weird because I use Safari at home and it works fine. Have you tried applying the software updates? That might help, other than that, I have absolutely no idea.

Re: HS Card Factory - Updated 23/06 (Customs applet)

This version also supports BMP files...

Re: HS Card Factory - Open for business! (Customs applet)

Probably not reading this right but I'm reading that as you're saving the card then importing it as a picture. This causes an issue as the card appears on the top layer, obscuring the text boxes. It...

Re: HS Card Factory - Open for business! (Customs applet)

Weird. Now you mention it I think Java and ImageIcons have some weird greivance with BMP files. Try saving the figure image again as a png or a jpg if it wasn't in one of those formats. They are the...
