Question about the avatar templates

[Ron Scorpio]

Hi everybody! :smileyhappy:

I have a question about painting on the templates. I've been trying to create a muscular base for the clothing I want to sell by painting in Photoshop on the layered template files. After a few hours I ended up with a decent looking torso, but when I preview it on an avatar (using Blitz Max clothing previewer) it looks distorted around the chest area.

Am I missing something? Do I need to look closely at the avatar mesh templates and distort my painting to match the little jagged guidelines on the template somehow?

Its the shadow under the chest area that's causing the most trouble. It looks great on the template and I followed the curved guidelines when I painted it , but is no longer a smooth line when I upload it.

Thanks!

I dont know about others... but for myself, I'd need to see a picture or two.  perhaps with circles and arrows and stuff like that.

Upload the template as a texture, apply it to a new shirt, and wear it. You'll see where all the lines go on the avatar body easily enough.  Take a pile of photos from all different angles and save them on your hard drive for reference later.
