Armor and Weapons for DS2 Cat Mansion Girls and Boys

I thought it might be a good time to open a forum topic on both Armor and Weapons for DS2 Cat Mansion Characters. I will at some point write down what is necessary to convert DS1 Type1 armor to DS2 Type6 armor or create new type6 armor for both the Cat Mansion Boys and Girls. The process is a bit longer for DS2 than DS1 but you do not need all the armor images normally required for DS2 characters and their various skin tones. I have converted my DS1 Cat Mansion Mod Called "War Shorts" into a DS2 Cat Mansion Mod Called "Cat Mansion Beach Wear. Which is located here http://www.siegetheday.org/?q=node/2516 Should you find any problems, have any questions or wish to offer suggestions or additions, Please post them here. Previous discussions were held here; http://www.siegetheday.org/?q=node/2501 and here http://www.siegetheday.org/?q=node/2474 It should be stated here that the DS2 Cat Mansion Characters can wear all of the Standard DS2 Type1, Type2, Type3, Type4 and Type5 without any modifications. This is just for discussing the Type6 armor only they can wear. Although Helms for Cat Mansion Girls and Boys appear different, If you where planning to create a Helmet Mod, Just make one as you normally would and as long as it is based on a standard helmet mesh the cat mansion characters will take care changing the new helm to their liking do to their meshes. No additional drawing or template required. Gloves and Boots are the same for all Characters at least those that have hands and feet forums: |

I am currently working on a tutorial for converting Dungeon Siege 1 type1 body armor images into Dungeon Siege 2 type6 body armor images. then how to create a mod to display them. I will provide a list of programs that are required to do this. I will not however explain how to use any of the programs/applications beyond what is necessary for creating the images and templates because each program and/or application already has extensive how to use tutorials both in the directions that come with them and on line.
I have made a start on the tutorial, but I have been doing this for so long it is second nature to me. So maybe some of you would be kind enough to review what I have so far and tell me what you think.

the zip file is updated so that wihdows or winrare can open it. Seems things must be saved to be compatable with version 2.0 compression.
Thank You
wud be nice if u explained exactly how u fixed the missing body parts bug (if it isnt already done in there) since it appears to be a hard to fix problem if u are plagued by it.
I am having problems extracting the tutorial. I receive error messages from both windows explorer and WinRar:
To new a zip program for either winrare or windows to understand.
Be right back.
Lady Femme if you read this thread http://www.siegetheday.org/?q=node/2474 from first post to last post (by date) all should become clear or at least as clear as transparent body parts can become.
That worked, thanks. Gonna go do some reading.
While working on another project I discovered an issue with the Cat Mansion Boys and DS2 type2/type3 armor not displaying correctly I will need to look into this as well as type4 and type5, before I continue with the tutorial.
I discovered why some of the Armor did not look right on the cat mansion boy. Wrong armor models, should have been male.
