Ok, that looks cool, so wait is this skin being used in JPDS? if so I have a fews questions, wouldnt we want to put it on another rap body, cause the JP/// raps had a more of a tc_isle build, also what about the quills/feathers on the top of his head? Anyway looks good and Ill try to continue posting as long as my comp doesnt crash.
(Well, I was once part of the JPDS team)

I haven't worked on it for a couple weeks...I might have to start all over again, to try and get a more uniform skin...
I was trying to contact remdul or anyone who maybe knew of a way to make one skin and then seperate it later...
I do have a new computer, so I can finally see the dinosaurs in TPDC so that helps out alot...

Cool well tell us when you make more headway, or if you need any help. One suggestion I can make is directly comparing the TC maps with your JP///-rap maps to see if they obviously differ in any way. As for combining them now and seperating them afterwords, I'd say there's only a small chance of that happening but it's possible.
Also SI, when you get a chance, talk with MikeTheRap about some music things he has in mind for JPDS...

OK sounds good. BTW SI, I'm not sure if you can do this, and if you can't just say so and I'll work it out, but one way to tell what's going on with the textures is first of all to make each texture a different solid color, and have a black grid on it to show how it wraps around the body (numbers would probably be too big). I'm thinking this should show you where each image ends up on the raptor.

yeah...that might help...
though I'm still going to redo the body, planning it out better so hopefully it'll be closer....
now I remember...what I tried doing was moving one part of the skin out of the folder, so that it didn't load with the model to see where it ended up...
I think if I start with the head, and have only that load up, and then work on the adjacent part of the skin and get that to fit up perfectly and so on until it all fits...yeah that should work...

here's a small update....I worked at it for a while last night....and got frustrated because it still isn't synching up properly which is weird because I overlapped the head/neck skin, with the upper body/arm skin thinking that that would make them meld together uniformly...yet that is not the result I got....
so I'm stumped for the moment...but I'll keep trying...
