Z_GrOovy_CobraMk1_Variety_Pack.oxp {RELEASE} 23-Jan-2014


      • Contents ***

Since the Cobra Mk 3 variety pack was liked by many people, I decided to remake one for the Cobbie Mk 1 as well. They are not based on the same schemes as the Mk 3 's but look good anyhow. How about a custom paint job for your favorite Cobra Mk1 Commander? A total number of 15 limited edition Cobra Mk 1's have been decorated using heat resistant vinyls and solar flare proof paint. See your Cobra Mk 1 retailer for details on pricing and options.

A big thank you to:

- Giles Williams and contributors for Oolite - Griff for his Triangular ship remakes and his shaders - Smivs for helping me out with streamlining the code

Upate 27 December 2013.

- Diziet Sma for making a patch that will work with Griff_Shipset_Resources_v1.2.25.oxp and Griff_Shipset_Replace_v1.34.oxp.

His patch is now included in the pack, and will no longer require an extra patch.


Update 25 January 2014

- Updated the Pack to work with Oolite Trunk (1.79 at the moment) and 1.77.1. Sometimes the "black decal square" would show up with Oolite Trunk. This has now been corrected.

Z_GrOovy_YellOo_Cab_Variety_Pack.oxp {UPDATED} 27-Jan-2011


      • Contents ***

YellOo cab taxi services fly the utility vehicle of choice; the Moray starboat. Reliable, cheap to run and almost maintance free... This is a Griff's replacement model and texture pack for Smiv's YellOo cab oxp. I have meticulously duplicated smivs shipdata.plist file. So gameplay wise all the data is the same exept for the Model and the texture.

This oxp comes with two textures in the texture folder:

-taxi.png -taxi_alt.png

The taxi.png will show up ingame when you install the oxp (the dirty one). Just swap/rename the file taxi_alt.png to taxi.png if you want clean cabs.

I couldn't show both ingame simultaneously since all files depend on on smiv's oxp which features one taxi with one texture.

Readmes/conversion.txt

Based on Instructions by Captain Solo: (some additional effect map channels used for engine glow)


1) Load "diffuse.png" into GIMP. 2) Decompose to RGB layers. You don't need the greyscale alpha layer. 3) Compose to RGB. 4) Duplicate the background layer so you now have two layers. 5) Change the layer mode of the top layer to overlay. 6) Change the opacity setting to roughly between 70% and 80%. 7) Merge the top layer down. This is your base diffuse texture 8) Load "normal.png" into GIMP 9) Decompose to RGBA 10) Move the alpha channel to the top, select all and copy. 11) Paste the copied greyscale image as a new image. This is your glow map. 12) Now back to the normal map layers, delete the alpha channel. 13) Compose to RGB 14) Under the colors menu select Desaturate, and choose desaturate by Luminosity. 15) Select all and copy. This is your pseudo relief texture. 16) Go back to your diffuse texture and Paste as new layer. 17) Change the layer mode to Grain Merge, and merge it down to the bottom layer.

  • a) Load the "effects" texture
  • b) decompose to RGB, copy alpha and green channel and insert each as new layer on the diffuse texture,
   change layer modes for them to overlay and opacity to 30%

18) Now go to your greyscale glow map from step 11, select all and copy.

  • d) back to the decomposed effects texture from *a)
  • e) paste as new layer
  • f) set layer mode of all layers to Screen
  • g) Under the Image menu choose flatten image
  • h) select all and copy.

19) Back to your diffuse texture, right click on the image, select Layer, then Mask and Add Layer Mask 20) Set the layer mask to Black. 21) Cntrl V - paste the glow map on top of the layer mask. 22) Anchor the floating layer to the background image. 23) You will see two representations in the layer dialog. Click on the left one. 24) Export as your new shaderless_diffuse texture.

Finally you will need to edit the shipdata.plist file and change the material section to the following: materials = { "Hull" = { diffuse_map = "shaderless_diffuse.png"; specular_color = ( 0.2, 0.2, 0.2 ); shininess = 5; emission_map = { name = "shaderless_diffuse.png"; extract_channel = "a"; }; emission_modulate_color = (0.9926, 0.9686, 0.7325); }; };

Good luck.

Griff's NoShader Z GrOovy Vinyl Paintshed designs


An oxp for Oolite that adds different Z GrOovy-textured Cobra Mark Is, IIs and Sidewinders to the no shadered Ooniverse

Overview: Z_Groovy/Dertien's alternative fantastic textures for Griff's ship models.

In this OXP, only the textures were modified so they render well on GPU's that do not support OpenGL shading language. The clever procedure how to convert was developed by Captain SOLO.

Requirements: Tested with Oolite 1.80. No dependencies.

Installation:


Credits or rather still "Standing on shoulders of giants":

  • Z_Groovy/Dertien (check out his bbs and hpc ships), see Readme.old for original readme.
  • Griff for his marvelous ship designs
  • Captain Solo, who invented a clever way to convert them for computers with shaderless GPUs and helped me
 extensively to explain how it was done for his noshader shipset (now default ships for 1.80)
