Coach Multicam (Left 4 Dead 2)

Whole reskin now, shrunk file size considerably, tidied textures a lot, darkened and improved look, dodge and burned to give worn and dirty look and less clean and flat. Still need to make normal map/bump map when get around to making a height map to make it from to make pockets etc look better so left out for now, just colour map/texture to keep very small. 

Bump wotn make huge difference since most the skin is sort of flat anyway and no specular as it is all none reflective so default maps will look fine except pockets look flat. Any feedback good or bad appreciated.

the pocket to me looks like its in a weird position

Yeah it's supposed to be on an angle if that is what you mean, the texture is from low res photos of helikon tcu shirt but if you google one you'll see what I mean from better photo. A few of the tactical combat uniform shirts have slanted top pockets as although odd looking it enables easier access when reaching for left pocket with right hand/right pocket with left hand.

The sleeve pockets are on the bicep rather than sides of arms which is also odd lookin but I find it is much easier to get too especially since I cycle wearing one, I can easily get stuff out my sleeve pocket one handed whilst riding.

If you mean it is flat looking though then yeah I've not done bump map so looks flat when light catches it. TBH it could benefit from being remodelled to make it look realistic.

if u get this fix would u be think of make the 4 survivors like this? that would be total sweet to c them all in the army now lol.

Yeah I was thinking of doing camo skins for others once got this finished to a satisfactory degree. Just doing bits in free time or when I'm supposed to be working haha so it's not going to be very polished but if someone wishes to take my final version and polish it feel free, no need to credit me if do this since I did it purely for myself and friends and family I play with and released it as thought others may enjoy it.

Unfortunately I don't have multicam clothing to get decent high res textures hence not amazing detail. I just decided I didn't like the character clothing and one of the things I'd do in zombie invasion event is change to some practical hard wearing comfortable clothes (and my underpants which'd probably be brown after discovering aforementioned zombies), combats make sense and also LESS likely to get your arse shot off by any survivor military on a cleanse mission who may mistake you for other unit. It's either that or get leathers and grow a tom savini 'tache and ride around on a motorbike.

I thought about doing others in different camo though so were visually distinct to each other. I did consider making vest etc but have little in way of modelling software these days and VERY rusty in blender3D, long time since I touched 3d since I only do illustration and photo stuff for long time (not game related).

Nice. =)
Now All He Need's Is A Modeled Vest. ;P

Thanks heartless I'll save as tga and use vtfedit instead. I've tweaked the textures some more, cleaned up a few more joins and darkened the texture somewhat so it looks better in game. I've started on trousers too so will upload when it's finished.

You are welcome.

Unsure why this turned out larger than expected. I used photoshop VTF plugin so perhaps that is why, I expected it to be around 6Mb. I'll try different way of saving VTF perhaps, also will do little reading on the format since it is totally new format to me. Apologies for the size and it being rather rough around the edges and needing work still. Feel free to edit all you want and don't bother crediting me unless you want to. I'll try and sort it myself when I am less busy.

edit it in ps as a targa and save it as a targa, then use vtfedit to convert to a vtf.
