Shadowforge News

First of all I want to point out that when you use images from other sources, make sure that it is licensed for free. Use them at your own risk.

Now moving on to how I made Old City Road into this:


First of all, you need to make what you want to retexture white. Either by painting it white, or by shading it white.

Then you use the Brush Optimizer. Print it on the canvas. Next, upload a single or several images with CTRL + SPACE and then randomize it. You have now successfully changed the texture. But wait, the other stuff (gray stuff?) are now cut out/transparent. Well, use Add Clear Assets and then put in a colored background, then stamp it on the canvas again. Now you're done with your amazing transformation.

One of the randomizers was lacking in performance and made the software only slower. It is deprecated so I decided to only have the randomizer on painted color. You can still randomize the whole canvas if you put on a colored background.

When you use the layer inspector the camera will no longer "mess up" or as I like to call it, move to a determined destination.

These are my own predictions for what I will add to Shadowforge when the latest GMS update gets released out of beta. First of all, I want to mention, that none of this might come to existance at all. But the RBS and RBI did release with Shadowforge 3.2, as predicted before. So there might be a chance still.

Lets get the carpet rolling then... What I believe the new GMS update will help greatly with, is it's nine slice feature. I think that this can make it a lot easier to add a 9 vertice tool after you have used a polygon tool, to shape the selected part of your image with scaling and rotation right off the bat. Maybe this is just wishful thinking. I have not tested the beta in fear of losing my project.

Next, I believe I should live up to Shadowforge's name by making light and shadow gradients on selected areas. Remember that this is just my own predictions for the software, I don't want to promise anything because then I'd get angry mobs at me like the angry mmorpg players on youtube, no pun intended.

I flipped the palettes to make it work with the latest eye drop update.

This eye drop update is a lot more user friendly. It lets you eye drop without hiding the palettes.
