Fixing the Curly trees
« on: May 10, 2009, 11:22:38 »
Heja,
hm is someone here able to fix the sharpness of these Curly Trees?
Well I`m a Computer Nerd an all I can do is using GIMP or Paint.net.
Which means that I`m not able to fix the tileset. Would be great if you could do this, or you! Or you!  :sick:


Tilesets:

Its just a matter of applying a soften/blur on it. Try to find the smallest setting, and make it able to blur with the transparancy in tact.

Theres no easy solution without decreasing the quality, I think.
The only thing, which comes to my mind, is to take GIMP and to trace all lines, but this is very much work.

I just tested this, try applying a 0.3px radius gaussian blur. you'd have to clean up the edges so the shapes fit within the tiles, but it certainly 'softens' them, which I assume is the look you're after.

Hi, i make a gassuian blur of the black ones, in two versions. a 0.50 version that make it slighty smoth without alter the grapichs, and a 0.75 version that make it look pretier but maybe isnt what you want.
Both of them are "pre-boxed" so should work fine in KS.
Original:

0.50 Version:

0.75 Version:

Tell me what its better and i will relase it in other versions.

heh, got an idea... how about applying an blur filter, and then use the curve tool to sharpen the edges?
humm.. *opens gimp*
well .. not what I've expected... but well, it's your decision C)

If you want to have the best result, do not blur in every direction. A motion blur set to either horizontal or vertical (I think vertical will work better) with a low percentage will work wonders here. :)

EDIT: see attachment I actually set it to 45? on both the image and its mask (PSPro works that way)

Isn`t it possible to vectorisize (I hope that`s the right translation.... it`s "vektorisieren" in my language) the trees? To create a non-pixel tileset =D

Oh is that what he was saying? I can't really imagine trees like that.

EDIT: woah. I just realised there was a misplaced green pixel.
