DigitalHax Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Hey all, What image editing software do you use? I use Paint dot net for small simple things and converting to dds, but use photoshop for more complicated things.

Canardia Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Inkscape is not an image editing program, but a vector painting program. But I use it to make .svg and .ps graphics.

Pixel Perfect Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I use Gimp as I find it pretty much does everything I need of it. I also use TextureMaker for tiled texture production.

Gimp can do tiled textures quite well too. Just select layer offset 50%/50% and correct the seam in the middle X/Y axis.

This is true, as do quite a number of other applications. I bought TextureMaker years ago before using Gimp but it does have some nice features that result in it still being my first choice for tiled texture work. The resynthesizer plugin in Gimp remains an invaluable tool for removing those annoying repeating items though.

CreativeOcclusion Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 if your talking textures, genetica is a awesome program, but it is quite expensive....metatron recommended gimp to me the other day and i find it to be a capable program....free doesn't hurt anything either...

cassius Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I got gimp 2.8 today but found that it does not come with dds and normal map plugins.built in. I already had them though so no problem, but is there a more recent version of gimp?

CreativeOcclusion Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 the newest version that i downloaded is 2.8....mine did not come with the .dds either...i just downloaded it ....there are a lot of plugins for gimp.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flachdrache Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 One usually just needs a good texture editor and a mass viewer like irfanView ... gimp with the dds & normalmap plugin .. dont miss the CeGui layout plugin, if you work with that. PSP was the all time awesome program for alpha channel and texture mixing tasks ... thx to you photo editing, red-eye removers - it was left-behind and we all now have to life with the mediocre - since psp 7 seams to keep crashing with winXP sp3 and up. http://portableapps.com/apps Quote AMD 64 X2 Dual 5k - 4GB - XFX GForce9800GT - nv196.21 - WinXP Sp3 zBrush4R2 - Silo2Pro - Unwrap3DPro - Gile - MaPZone2.5 Xxploration FPS in progress ...

cassius Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I ave been trying to make textures in Gimp but so far they all end up looking like garish wallpaper. Is there any tool that can help make stone walls or brick?
