Holes In My Skins

[strogan]

How come whenever i make a really good skin i cant post it because it has holes in it, for example, i just made a really good peasant and i cant use it because it has holes in its head on its feet, if anyone can tell me why this is so ill be grateful, thanks

Do you mean it has unexpected alpha'd out parts?
It could be because you messed with the alpha channels or something.

Or, it could be bug. Re-submit it if necessary.
This should be in the skin forums.

soryr for posting in wrong place... it just has holes in it, all i did was do my skin, i didnt mess with anything, it just comes out with that, same as with villagers, whenever i do htem they have holes in there heads

Maybe you could try copy and pasting the whole skin onto its fresh new base skin you worked on and convert it into blp and then upload it.

 

[strogan]

ok, ill try that, thanks

Strogan (just a suggestion) why don't you post this question in the skins section. That way any skinners that may of had this same problem can help you too.

or you could just try making a skin for a model with no head at all.lol

now that was just stupid, spider.

The reason the holes appear is (as sopho said, i know)
That you have alphaed out some parts that are not meant to be alphaed, because the area behind them is empty. For example, if you alpha out Arthas' hair, he will have a hole in his head where it was, because there is no model/mesh beneath the hair.

ya i know, but i never alpahed anything out.

 

[Saikann]

show us the skin already, makes it a hole lot easier.

 

[superspider]

sorry for the dumb idea. :lol: mangos

o boy he can alpha on accident and i cant alpha at all :?

 

[Sopho]

We do not if he has alpha skills or not. It basically happened by mistake or he did something wrong. I'd just repair the alpha channels if necessary.
