No worries, you aren't to know In a way, I feel bad picking on you and I neither want to appear ungrateful for your work nor overly critical. But if I don't let you know about these very minor issues, then you'll keep doing them; this way, you can continue refining your cutting technique


I have thick skin, I'd much rather work on getting them spot on. All good.

@FM Bard, just had a look at this one. Do keep an eye out for snow in some of your cuts; have a look at this short YouTube tutorial on how to spot and quickly remove them


This must do your head in, I am basically working my way through all the basic errors.....

Attached revised one.

Great job again @FM Bard, especially with the collar. One small thing: cuts don't have to be 250x250. If the source isn't big enough (like in this case), they can be in 180x180


Thanks, mons. I wasn't sure, noted.

@FM Bard, thanks for taking this on Very good work, especially some of the trickier cuts

Just a little something to keep in mind for future cuts. Ideally, you only keep 2-3 pixels between the top of the head/hair and the top of the cut, and likewise for the bottom of the chin/facial hair and the bottom of the cut. I can see you've retained a small bit of collar in all your cuts, which is great.

In cases where the source doesn't appear to allow the inclusion of a collar and the small space indicated above, have a look at this post, which displays a simple technique of how to cut close to the chin and still display a bit of the collar

One more, really tiny, thing I can see a couple of your cuts are not straight (such as 3100353). It's a great cut, and I will include it in the MP for sure, but ideally the head/face is perpendicular so as to maintain the megapack "template". This is relatively easy to sort at cutting stage by rotating the image to ensure either the eyes or the bottom of the ears are in a straight-line - so do keep it in mind as well for the future

Hope you can take on more packs in the future


Hi mons.

Thanks for the feedback, very useful. I will polish up the next batch I take on!!

Hi there.

Any particular poor-quality cuts in mind? At a quick glance, I can't see anything which leaps out as unsuitable, but I'd be happy to be corrected

Re sizes, in view of the discussion in this thread and mostly in view of the increasing availability of higher-quality sources when compared to the start of this pack 10 years ago, a decision was taken by the community to provide cuts in both 180x180 and 250x250, dependent on the quality of the source image. This will not affect the general user of this pack much since the default skin automatically resizes cuts to fit them into each respective screen. However, this allows us to start building a base of larger size images in case SI change things around. In fact SI's default cutouts are 250x250 in size, which led some of us to speculate there might be changes in the offing. Additionally, I believe a number of skins have a larger display area than the default skin and can display the larger cuts in their full glory.

Finally, if you want our cutting community to cut any source you may find, you can use our request forum. Every completed missing image is included in the next update pack (unless it is extremely poor) while every improvement is compared with the existing megapack image to see whether it is actually an improvement.

Hope this helps


Hi mons,

Thanks for the info on the sizing, I get that now.

I understand that some people would prefer an image over no image at all but I've just scanned it quickly again and the following look out of place to me.

23425780
23425782
23439048
23439049
23439050
23439054
23439057
23439059
23439076
23439092

There's quite a lot around that particular batch that are unidentifiable, some don't even look human.....

Hi, thanks for the update.

I have a couple of queries, in relation to 10.06, for some reason I decided to flick through the images this time rather than just adding them straight to the directory. I notice some of the faces are very low quality, in fact some are so blurred the true identity could not possibly be known? Also, the sizes are all over the place, I assume the game resizes them and there is no longer a requirement to submit at 180x180?

When playing the game if I sign someone whose face isn't in the pack I cut-it, can someone point me in the direction of where I can submit mine for inclusion, be good to give back.

Not criticism, just queries.

Cheers.

I've downloaded all the Nation Kit packs but this one is returning an Invalid Format error on extraction, any ideas?

Thanks

It's still in the game, where it's always been I think.

Transfers/DOF and set the criteria you desire.
