Here's a skin. Will you accept it?
And AircraftKiller, you wonder why you get flamed? You are too fucking literal. There are people who will say skin, not texture. There are people who will use abbreviations. There are people who will not be able to spell good. So shut the fuck up, and stop trying. ----- I would contribute my old sound pack, but I lost it.

The abbreviation of texture is tex, not skin. A skin is an animal skin in most cases.
Dictionary.com 3: an outer surface (usually thin); Have you ever heard of internet lingo? This is the internet, and "skin" is lingo. Get over it. Nobody agrees with you, and nobody will change no matter how much you whine about it.
Quote: 3: an outer surface (usually thin); "the skin of an airplane" Helps when you quote the entire thing. Something you can touch has different meanings than something intangeble. to something tangeble, texture is how it feels, while skin is the substance covering the object. When it comes to the world of computer generated models. However when texture is applied to the computer world, it does have a distinct defininition, unlike skin. Quote: texture <graphics> A measure of the variation of the intensity of a surface, quantifying properties such as smoothness, coarseness and regularity. It's often used as a region descriptor in image analysis and computer vision. Admittedly, Aircraftkiller doesn't always have to point out the correct terminology, but he is right. Whether you like him/hate him/whatever, he wins this round. Though, the next time someone comes into the forum that doesn't speak proper English, or incomprehensable "leet speak", no one had better correct him, as then you'd all be hypocrites for getting after aircraftkiller for doing this to you.
Don't argue with Aircraftkiller, he's right. Don't argue with warranto, he's a lawyer.
IRON-FART Have you ever heard of internet lingo? A. The internet isn't an english class. B. It doesn't matter who's correct. I know ACK is correct in saying that it isn't right to use the word "skin" how people use it, but thats totally irrelevant. See the quote? IRON-FART Nobody agrees with you, and nobody will change no matter how much you whine about it. Before people start calling me a hypocrite... Nobody agrees with him in the sense that "skin" is an unacceptable word...
You're right, the Internet isn't an English class. But you know what it IS? It's a place where the main means of communication is language, and here, it's the English language, and if you can't use it correctly, you're shit out of luck. Let me relate to you a story, kiddos. Today in my English class, we were correcting people's papers that other people in our class had written. Do you know what I came across? That's right. Someone had written "u" instead of "you" in their paper. So I turned to him, and I said: "Robby, You might want to spell out the word 'you' in your sentences." And do you have any idea what his response was? "Oh, haha, I probably shouldn't chat on AIM when I do my homework." It was just as I had predicted. Do not fool yourselves into thinking you can molest my language and that it's my job to try and insinuate a meaning out of your horrible solecisms. The moral? Don't be gay. ________________
AuroraX0 Don't argue with Aircraftkiller, he's right. Don't argue with warranto, he's a lawyer. heh, not quite a lawyer. In training, yes.. but not quite accepted to the bar. Still a few degrees remaining.

Just because something is acceptable by one person (or group) doesn't make it the correct thing to use. Heck, if this were true, you could call American's "Dogs" and claim it to be 'lingo' simply because a group uses it to describe them. "skin", wheither is it acceptable or not, is hypocritical if you turn around and call "l337 5p3111|\|6" unacceptable, as it is "internet lingo", when "skin" is also of this form. I'm not saying you, IRON, ARE a hypocrite. Unless, you are guilty of this.
Hey, black people can't complain, "n.igger" is just lingo. (Damn you Crimson and your word filters.)
I think I'll download that skin, it looks pretty good.
"Skin" also can generally mean something that is covering something else. People refer to textures as "skins" because they are visualizing it as being the outer layer, covering, or "skin" of the model underneath. Just because you say "skin" doesn't necessarily mean it has to do with animal skin, for example (no pun intended): http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=aircraft+skin&btnG=Google+Search
If you want to call it a skin, just do it for Quake, Half-Life, UT and even Windows Media player. Each of those applications have official "skinning" guides... If you want to do it for Renegade, you better just do what the almighty, self-proclaimed "God" of Renegade who finished one map for a dieing company and had them add it to one of their final patches does. (cause the good lord knows that if HE said it, it must be true)
Aircraftkiller The dictionary.com is not always completely correct about everything it holds within its archive.
I am the skinnz0rs of Rebarn and I make nice skins. I am skinning right now... lmao ( And ack has a shit lot of buttons on his skin, disgusting... )
Hey ACK:
Someone has to say it (Well j4S[p] already did)!
Volkov: I'm not taking sides here, but all of your posts I've seen here have just been useless flaming that doesn't get you anywhere.
I know it's not really like me, but seeing ACK pick on Reborn constantly not to mention other mods he's mocked in public, is very frustrating!
Exclamation point!!!
Not once was a modification picked on in this thread....
Heh, I just noticed Warranto, you registered two days after my birthday... Aaaand, today IS my birthday.
Happy Birthday Icedog
=[DT =gbull=[L]=]Happy Birthday Icedog Thanks.

I'm not saying you, IRON, ARE a hypocrite. Unless, you are guilty of this. The difference between words like "skin" and "1337 Speak" Is that I can understand perfectly what someone is trying to say when they use that word. I can't understand any "1337 speak." Also, "U" instead of "You" and "r" etc, I can understand what those mean too. I don't trip up over any of those words (or letters I guess)... So I don't see the problem... Its not entirely correct, but I can understand what someone is saying... Isn't that what matters?
To some extent, understanding is what's most important. However, that doesn't necessarily make it the proper way to spell/speak/whatever. To be more to the point is understanding all that matters? Perhaps, unfortunatly, society is more accepting of stupidity than intelligence. And that's what all those examples show. A complete absence of intellect.
Volkov Hey ACK: And another person uses that picture... :rolleyes:
Quote: To some extent, understanding is what's most important. However, that doesn't necessarily make it the proper way to spell/speak/whatever. Nobody is sayng that it IS the correct use of English. Problem solved then. ACK, quit whining.

To be more to the point is understanding all that matters? Perhaps, unfortunatly, society is more accepting of stupidity than intelligence. And that's what all those examples show. A complete absence of intellect. You got the point. And making hundreds of posts about this 'skin' question, like this stupid moron does, is really idiotic.
Showing a lack of intelligence by substituting the correct word with something else simply in the name of slang, meanwhile attempting to refute the idea that it ISN'T the correct word is even worse.
warranto Showing a lack of intelligence by substituting the correct word with something else simply in the name of slang, meanwhile attempting to refute the idea that it ISN'T the correct word is even worse. If you're so positive you are correct, what is the rebuttal against all the major game makers using the term themselves? Are we suggesting that the primary users and developers of the technology in the gaming community are just ignorant? It is such a futile argument, that I'm actually quite amazed that you take the stance you do, warranto.. Do a simple search on the Internet, visit the developers sites, read all the documentation that they provide, then come back and tell me that they are all wrong, and you are right..
Except pain, it IS slang. Warranto is talking about the formal correct use of the language. Not the informal use, which allows for slang and other colloquialisms. Remember, just because a game developer said it, doesn't mean it's correct.
It's a WIDELY used and known term for the person that applies textures to a model. I could care less if a "game university" has a "texturing" class, or if the word "texture" in the dictionary has a definition that matches the description.. You simply can't argue that the term has been used and accepted since the earliest days of FPS games. This isn't something new that people began saying as slang, and now need corrected on.. I would argue that it was the original term for the process, and someone just decided that "texture artist" sounded better than "skinner".
Aircraftkiller The abbreviation of texture is tex, not skin. A skin is an animal skin in most cases. What the fuck? In my visit of gaming forums, I have never heard someone call their texture a 'tex'. What the fuck are you talking about?

Do a simple search on the Internet, visit the developers sites, read all the documentation that they provide, then come back and tell me that they are all wrong, and you are right.. Slang is slang. It may be an accepted term to use, but it doesn't make it any less "proper". I'm not saying it's completely and utterly wrong to use it, it just shows a lower intellect to argue that anything else is wrong, as some people appear to be dong when they come up with stuff such as "no one cares", and "everyone else does it". Heck, even I use slang. In Canada, theft is not called theft; it's actually called "conversion", but everyone still calls it theft. Does that mean theft is the incorrect term to use? Yes, it is. However it's a common phrase, so people use it. It doesn't make it any better, though, when it is supposed to be called conversion. Perhpas to clarify some point to avoid confusion. Slang isn't wrong, as it it is a generally accepted form to use. It's simply not proper to use slang over the correct term. The "lack of intellect" simply refers to people using arguements against the proper use of the term, not the use of the term itself. I'm not attempting to argue that it is absolutely wrong to use, but rather that having Aircraftkiller correct people isn't wrong either, as it is proper to use the correct term rather than slang.

Do a simple search on the Internet, visit the developers sites, read all the documentation that they provide, then come back and tell me that they are all wrong, and you are right.. According to Discreet's Gmax User Reference, skins are the 3D mesh itself and not the texture applied onto it. A quick search of the user reference for the word 'skin' returns 18 entries. 17 of the 18 are all referring to the 3D mesh of a model or modifiers that bend that 3D mesh. 1 of the 18 entries uses the word skin like this: Quote: Bitmaps are useful for creating many kinds of materials, from wood grains and wall surfaces to skin and feathers. Quite literally referring to the look of biological skin and the way bitmaps can mimic the appearance. It would appear that in the documentation Discreet provided for the public, they do not consider a skin to be a texture. They define it as the mesh of the model itself. Feel free to ignore me though, everyone else seems to when I bring this up.
This reminds me of Garfield & Friends. If anyone's seen that, do you remember the Buddy Buddy Bears? Lots of political shots hidden in them. The entire premise of the BBB was that they all got along, and that the group was always right. Thinking for yourself was wrong, because it meant you disagreed with them.
Most of the people who work in game industry decided to call that a skin just because it's a texture applied on a model... Like you can see the human skin is applied on the human body. Nowadays it's a normal use. Language that never evolve die just like Latin... (now plz go outside and take deep breathe ack, it will help you)
Most people from 1900 to 1960 thought it was appropriate to call black people n1ggers. Just because they found it appropriate, does that mean it was? Not to me, but someone like you was defending the usage of that word back then, because everyone else did it... and obviously a group of people must be right.
Poor ACK Stop flaming him guys, jeeze.
msgtpain It's a WIDELY used and known term for the person that applies textures to a model. Umm... so? Because it's widely used to refer to a type of person... does that mean it's not slang? Not really. The argument here lies in the use of formal and informal English, and since we're all online communicating in a way that is otherwise informal just about all of the time, "skin" is acceptable. People know what you're talking about because, as you said, it's a widely used term. But you will likely not see a "skinner" in the credits in a video game, if you know what I mean. Quote: I would argue that it was the original term for the process, and someone just decided that "texture artist" sounded better than "skinner". Ok, now prove it please.
Quote: It's a WIDELY used and known term for the person that applies textures to a model. If it is widely used enough, then thats how it becomes a proper word. Nobody is refuting that skin is the incorrect word. N-O-B-O-D-Y! But nobody cares either if it is the correct word. (Besides ACK). Its a very widely used term across the gaming industry. If you tell someone "Hey, I downloaded a skin," or, "Hey, I'm going to make a skin," Then they will understand you. If you tell someone "Hey, I'm going to download a tex..." Then it's not the same is it? Quote: English, and since we're all online communicating in a way that is otherwise informal just about all of the time, "skin" is acceptable. Thank god. I have seen the glimmer of light.

Not to me, but someone like you was defending the usage of that word back then, because everyone else did it... and obviously a group of people must be right. You're right. We should stop calling textures skins, since a texture might be offended by our racist remarks.
If I were a texture, I'd be offended at being compared to an animal skin.
the point: Textures do not live(have the ability to take offence to our word), we created textrures so there fore we can call it what ever the fuck we want to. As human beings. ACK stop shitting on everyone you ass hole.
j4S[p ] SuperMidget Poor ACK Stop flaming him guys, jeeze. No, we won't stop. He deserves every bit of it. Um, I don't think it bothers him at all. It wouldn't bother me if "TEH INTERNETZ PPLZ" didn't like me... Would it bother you?
Quote: If I were a texture, I'd be offended at being compared to an animal skin. If I was refering to an animal skin, I would say animal skin. If you can't understand what someone is refering to from the context, then you have issues that need ironing out. Also, I want to add that skin only refers to the texture that is on a vehicle or a character. The ground does not have a skin, it has a texture. Skin is more specific.
Skin is more specific to animal skins, not textures. Stop rationalizing, you're wrong.
SEAL You're right. We should stop calling textures skins, since a texture might be offended by our racist remarks. lol, good point.
EDIT: Post removed. ACK, You're too much of an asshole so I think i'm better off just adding you as the first person to my ignore list.
In other words, you can't defend your point of view well enough to show why something proper is wrong, and why improper is right.
Quote: You have added this person to your Ignore List. Click HERE to view this post. -> is all jACKass can say here. why ? lol (how much time before a dumbass says : if you ignore somebody, then ignore it...blah blah...lmao, dumb kids...)
Aircraftkiller If I were a texture, I'd be offended at being compared to an animal skin. What... the... fuck are you shittin on about now, a skin is a god damn skin, if I was to call it a skin or a texture you would know what I was talking about, so what's the point in arguing a stupid bullshit point all over again. Yes if you want to get technical (which many people don't) a skin in terms of modelling is what you see on infantry and tanks, and a texture is what you see on buildings / map surfaces.
Ack, I WISH you were a texture. Texture's can't type and spit out retarded garbage like you do.
Quote: if I was to call it a skin or a texture you would know what I was talking about If I call you an idiot, you'd know what I was talking about. There is no technicality, a skin is an animation modifier. Quote: According to Discreet's Gmax User Reference, skins are the 3D mesh itself and not the texture applied onto it.

TheGunrun ACK stop shitting on everyone you ass hole.
Aircraftkiller If I call you an idiot, you'd know what I was talking about. If I was to call you an arsehole you'd also know what I was talking about. You seem to forget not everybody cares about being correct and anal all the time like yourself. I myself would just prefer to call a texture a skin, end of story, and if you don't like that, well that's your problem..
Unlike you I don't subscribe to the theory that children grow up to have different personalities based on how they took a shit while learning to use a comode. If people don't care about being correct, that still doesn't excuse them from being wrong.
Aircraftkiller Look, read, laugh at how silly you are. It's just the Internet, after all. I personally just take most everything with a bit of salt and continue with what I was doing before. Example... I forget most things on the Internet from 5 seconds to 15 minutes. I don't harbor hate for some person I'll never meet, and I don't bother getting worked up over 99% of what I encounter online. If you do, I seriously suggest you look into ways to find something better to do with your time... For your own sake. I can't imagine how you would act in reality if you allow little things like words on a computer monitor to make you incredibly mad and cause you to throw out "I hate you" over and over.
And your point is? How does that apply to me if I'm not upset over any of this? Perhaps if you knew what the hell you were trying to prove by using a quote from me in a way that doesn't validate anything you're saying...
skin... skin... skin... it can be said both ways, get ov3r it, it's like 10000000000 years old....nearly as old as you are ACK...
The term "skin" or "to skin" when used to describe the bitmapped surface of a mesh is a metaphor. Mr Aircraftkiller is just on a crusade to wind as many of you up as possible. Guess what? It's working.....
It may be a metaphor, but it's still incorrect.
A metaphor can't be incorrect, because it's a metaphor. If you treat a metaphor as a literal correlation, then it appears "incorrect". If I used a simile such as "I textured the mesh as if it was a skin" is that incorrect? No. It's allegorical and is obviously not intended to be interpreted literally, just like a metaphor.
I suppose so, but the problem is that the metaphor loses meaning when people only know that a texture is a skin and nothing more. Even worse is when they believe the geometry is a skin as well, so the entire thing becomes a skin to them regardless of surface properties and texture work. I'd pay $10 to go back in time to slap some sense into the person that decided "skin" was analogous to a texture or model.
xC4pRoX j4S[p ] SuperMidget Poor ACK Stop flaming him guys, jeeze. No, we won't stop. He deserves every bit of it. Um, I don't think it bothers him at all. It wouldn't bother me if "TEH INTERNETZ PPLZ" didn't like me... Would it bother you? Well, it would bother me here becuase I rely heavily on Mod help
Aircraftkiller I'd pay $10 to go back in time to slap some sense into the person that decided "skin" was analogous to a texture or model. I'd pay £10 go back in time and convince the FBI that you were in fact a terrorist taking pictures of those silos, and let them dump you in Guantanamo Bay, and beat the crap out of you, but we can't have everything. Anyway what does it matter, skin - texture, right - wrong, you're just making something out of nothing as you always do.
Compare and contrast kiddies: Here you have Reborn Sucks, who is content with simply bashing ,people over the Internet and laughing about it. Over there, you have Volkov, who does the same bashing -- most likely without humor -- and believes the punishment for it should be going back in time to get your "Internet enemy" to be labeled a terrorist, so he's thrown in prison and possibly tortured. That right there is some sick minded thinking, folks.
When did I refer to you as an "internet enemy"? You obviously get offended easily if that one insulted you, must of struck a raw nerve indeed.
'Reborn Sucks' if your father was looking at what you were confavaing to us what would he say? Really over the past years you have become very immature and really oppionated, do you think your past actions can justify your self. Geez i wonder where we all would be if renegade never existed, i bet 'Reborn Sucks' over there wouldn't be correcting everyone's humanity everywhere you turn.
My father is like me in many ways, so he wouldn't give a damn if I argued with punks over the Internet. He actively encouraged me to fight people as a way to keep them in line. I don't get how you can pretend to know me for years. Stop trying.
Fight with people to "keep them in line"... sounds like a wiener to me..
if i could change my name, the name at the top of my list is "ACK is tight" get over it... reborn rulez and so did renalert... but you always sucked... because your an egotistical person, and you probibly will never change... $10??? do you know how many people would pay millions to go back in time and live out there prime again? $10 seems a bit cheep to me... although if thats all you got, then sry, i shouldn't make fun of disadvantaged children...i mean old man like you. You can't be THAT much older than all of us... so stop saying your older and calling us kids...
1. My name isn't ACK. 2. Reborn has never been good. 3. I'm not egotistical, but it is egotistical to call others that in an attempt to bolster a position you couldn't have made without that dramatized version of reality. 4. I call you kids based on your intellectual abilities, and you're definitely a kid... by far.
Of course you name isn't "ACK" it's "Reborn Sucks"
Everyone is egotistical, fyi.
Reborn Sucks Compare and contrast kiddies: Here you have Reborn Sucks, who is content with simply bashing ,people over the Internet and laughing about it.

That right there is some sick minded thinking, folks. So, am I supposed to laugh everytime you say Reborn sucks? Because if you ask anyone on this forum, I'm pretty damn sure they don't laugh when they see Reborn sucks everywhere.
I said I was laughing about it, you idiot. Learn to read!
Calling people idiots dosent help anything. If you have nothing nice to say dont say anything at all.

He's not responding, he's just insulting him when he quotes someone else's posts. Also, it's not impossible for someone to see a post from someone on their blocked list.
