Complete Universe Facegen Pack

[percolaten]

Here you go. In return, do you have any recommendations for programs that de-blur the facegens before I work on them? Like when I crop the face of a current facegen and use that to edit in the modeller, any programs out there that de-blur it before I load it in the modeller?

Thanks!

Sadly I can't help you with this... what I use is a previous version of Facegen Modeller (2.4 I think) who is on my old computer. Maybe LansdowneSt have something to suggest since it's a pain in the ass to go down in the basement with an usb stick to start that useless and slow computer just for that.

There are programs like the Remini app to sharpen a photo before you make a facegen but unblurring or adding detail to an fg file that is already saved isn't practical. If an fg file you open to edit is "blurry" it may be best to start from scratch. Editing is still possible for recoloring, facial realigning, and all sorts of tweaks but adding detail isn't practical (but taking detail away is).

Great, thank you! Will always start from scratch from now on, like I've done with my first two facgens. Yesterday I experimented with adding more prominent facial hair to the D-Back's Luis Gonzalez facgen, and it wasn't pretty.

I sure tried but I'm not completly satisfied with the colors... I think it's better so I post it.

Found another zombie. Feel like I'm playing Resident Evil instead of OOTP.

I found a workable picture... I have to go for now but I'll give him a go later tonight.

Any advice with the modeller on how to bring color to b&w faces?

It's pretty much a game of try and retry with the three skin shade sliders and the skin shade one... with the time it become easier as you have a good idea of what you need to do to get an acceptable skin shade.

The big driver on coloring is the one that is on the main tab and is something to the effect of "Attractiveness" and on the other end "Monster". It has had different labels on different versions and not sure what the current demo has. The other sliders that influence are the racial sliders, the male/female one and the ones on the Color tab. The ones at the bottom of the Color tab do the heavy lifting (orange/blue, purple/yellow and red/green). But all the ones on the Color tab have some effect. Darken a mustache and you will lose some on the Attractiveness slider as it moves toward Monster. Lighten facial hair and you will see the opposite effect. None of the sliders work in isolation as moving one tweaks the point several others set. That's for all sliders and anything you might be tweaking.

Thanks guys!

We needed a goatee-less Todd Helton, as he was during his best years, the first half of his career, putting up ridiculous numbers on Coors-Field-roids.

Did my best with the facegen.

That was a lot of works for a guy who only played 29G in the Major league

Mickey Rivers / Doc Medich

Two upgrades... to be honest both were fine in the database but I gave them a go anyway.

[AESP_pres]

George Foster / Ken Griffey / Dan Driessen

Some Reds upgrades:
Not sure if George Foster is since I don't have the one from the database to compare with,
better colors for Griffey,
younger Driessen with better colors.

The current FG wasn't that bad except for the white patch on the left part of the face...

I like the contrast between the two. They both resemble the photo but still look like two different people. I didn't know what he really looked line. To quote an SNL line, 'Why the long face, Al?'
