Nika Skin Update: Regbalt's Texture Mod
7 years ago
General
So it seems that the Nika poster from a few days ago may have set some developments in motion...
A guy by the handle
regbalt has been starting to experiment with model and texture modifications of his own using the Petruz and Warfaremachine models. Turns out he's a very talented up-and-coming unity developer who has been porting and experimenting with character models in a custom VR application. He was very interested in making his own version of a Nika texture mod, and we ended up deciding to support him in his efforts. He's just shared his work to the public, giving owners of the Warfare shark mod an early release Nika skin to play with

I haven't had much time to work with the skin, but from what I've seen he did a fantastic job on his version of the textures. The resemblance between both of our projects is uncanny;

Here is his texture work swapped into my beached poster (Ears, eyes, hair and glasses are still unchanged);

If you've been waiting patiently for the Nika project, and have access to Warfare's shark, definitely give this a try! Our project is looking like it's going to be a separate model from the current shark at this point, so consider this a sanctioned base shark model option. I'm going to see if I can get the rest of it working myself and check back here with updates. Maybe see if I can get some of my emissive blend presets working, and force myself to learn a bit of source engine porting for the hair.
