I have a creative idea to add some effects to People Putty. Under the "Misc, jewelry, decorations, wounds" option, i think i can add effects here. The images and settings can be found in this folder ...

C:\Program Files\Haptek\PeoplePutty\environment\interfaces\DRAFT\ exaccessories\Layer\Jewelry

For example, to age a face, there are these images, old_rgb.jpg and old_alf.jpg ...



And in the jewelry.txt file are these settings ...

Layer=
Name= old
File= old_rgb.jpg
File= old_alf.jpg
Icon= oldicon.jpg
MaxDeltaAlpha= 0
MinDeltaAlpha= -255
TargetRes= 512, 512
Offset= 0, 109
BaseMatchColorFlag= 0

It should be easy to add some custom images, and add settings for them, except i don't know how to create the "alf" image. Anyone have any tips on how to do this, or which software will create such an image from the "rgb" image?

Thanks
Davy

I did some more testing, and was somewhat able to duplicate the "alf" effect by converting an image to black and white, then to a negative image. Here is my first experiment ...



I have also learned how to add more "hoods" to People Putty in the form of skin texture images. The possibilities are only limited by my imagination.
