Custom Ship Skin Requests

[Rahvin13]

Well im surprised there isnt already a thread like this,
But i was wondering, could someone possibly make me a Half-Life themed EG.X?

[QirexAAX]

Not very complicated or delicate, but how's this?

do u use photo shop qirex?

[QirexAAX]

Mainly just the online editor and MSPaint.

[Typhy]

Ooh, nice job man. I'm all jealous!

Quick question: what craft do you guys find the easiest/most enjoyable to design? Some of the dual-engine ships like Qirex & Goteki have a greater surface area, but in my opinion single engine ships look cooler.

it makes little difference to me from an enjoyment stance, but single hulls are definitely easier.
speaking of which, I took a stab at this request too:

click the image for a larger version, click here to get the skin

As I have never played HL1, I made it based off some HL2 stuff
I was going for it looking like a human craft that the combine had tacked some of their technology onto. the armor at the rear is mostly in colours used on the combine APC.
There's a lot of details that I put in that are simply not visible in the final result. I need to use more contrast in my work

Thats Brilliant, Thanks very much!
Woo! you worked my name into it Thanks

That Half-Life ship looks sweet!

[Rahvin13]

Hey Qirex, ive seen loadsa people online who're using the Half-Life skin

[rdmx]

That might actually be a bug. I've heard stories of zargz seeing his green machine on everyone else.

[bloseth]

I've seen this bug for sure

[Lion]

the results can be amusing.. an assegai smeared with bits of my 2097 qirex skin for example... it doesn't work too well, but then it only seems to appear before the race? once on the track I've seen them revert to the standard skin

[Dogg Thang]

Yeah, I'm not quite sure how it works. Sometimes peoples skins transfer over completely fine. Other times not. I love seeing peoples skins online though. It's a real treat.

[Rahvin13]

I Know what you mean Dogg_Thang, Its great to see peoples work online
I've seen some of you're skins on here, theyre pretty amazing

[Ricanebleu]

I have started to collect immages of the best skins since the beginning. Two folders: one with pictures for 3d presentation and annalysis, and one with folders containing the 2d blueprint and best 3d shots most of them downloaded from CR4SH3D’s site.

Still appart from gorgious designs with a lot of personality , some skins of the former ships have been presented like Dogg Thang’s Qirex/Piranha prototype from F5000.

I’m thinking of :

Flashback Jack’s AGSYS FX300 Champion
supersocks Goteki45 F7200
Lion’s Qirex2097
Sausehuhn’s EG-r

If by any chance they are not your personal racing skin i’d love to have them in my collection so please could you upload them on CR4SH3D’s site or here.
Also , as odd as it may sound i think that it would be great to have all the former skins in the previous games, what do you think? Anyone whith sucicient PhotoShop experience upthere?

And one more thing, did any one figured out a way to have more then 5 custom skins at a time saved in game?

[Lion]

does it save them on a per-profile basis? that could allow you to keep multiples of 5 on your psp. keeping more than that on wipeout-game.com is probably a bad idea though.. if the skins per user decision was based on storage limitations

[Ricanebleu]

yes i think it could. The files are numbered TEAMSKIN0000, 1, 2, 3, 4 so i hoped that if i put a 5 or a 6 in the back it would save them but nope. The unfortunate part is that the site has flows , for example i can't have slot 4 and 5 at the same time, one reads error when saving. also if you have dowloaded a skin and you try to copy it for an other card it won't read.

my point is that instead of resaving 5 slots all the time it would have been nice to have an army of skins all the time, just imagine 4G full of ships .

in site , no, i have no use of storring them, wy should i ? in my PSP , well there is an other story

[Rapier Racer]

Possible for anyone to make a Red Bull Assegai skin?

[CR4SH3D]

//rapier racer
that would be cool, after all it does improve your reaction time

//anyone
i wouldnt mind a kinda anime/vector art skin with the panels marked out for ag-sys. something that has the same "feel" as the style of wip3out and with the wip3out ag-sys logo, that would be awesome

[bloseth]

//raper racer

Nasty typo there cr4sh3d...
