Hi every1. I am currently trying and failing at creating a Jersey. I have looked around and tried to follow some examples of creating a jersey but keep getting stuck. I have tried a old version of creating a jersey. I have a template and the colors and was looking to merge them together some how. Later i found out this is a old version and probably wont work. So... I am using PCM10 and Adobe photoshop 10. I have seen this Video on youtube about how to create a Jersey and only problem i can see myself having is how to get the guy/cyclist in Adobe photoshop.
-In a nutshell just looking for some help in creating a Jersey.
Please help and Thanks

What do you mean 'tried a old version of creating a jersey'? And by having the colors?
Anyway, here's a small tutorial which should help:

And maybe you've already seen it, but here's a jersey template with a (very summed up) pictorial on how to create a jersey:

well... the way i was doing it was used for older versions of PCM. One of the admin had a article on it.
And i have seen that alot of ppl are not using Adobe photoshop element 10(which is wht i am using). Can i still use this program to create jerseys?? |

The jerseys from PCM 08-11 are all compatible. The only thing is that the jersey style changes in PCM 11, with the logos and shapes needing to be more sketched and with some changes in the positioning.
(btw, if you're talking about this article, then yeah it's a jersey for PCM 07. Just follow the links in post #2). I also think you can find some video tutorials by googling it up.
And why would you not be able to create jerseys with PSE? As long as you can do image editing in the program you can use it to create jerseys. You can in Paint, but it might be harder, of a worse quality and you'll need a .tga converter Seriously though, most people either use Photoshop, Paint.net or GIMP (the last two are free). I don't know how different Photoshop elements is from the 'normal' Photoshop, but I'd be surprised if you didn't have the basic tools to create a jersey in Elements.

Okay well....i am not using the same photoshop but i am getting most of it. In the link you sent me i am at the point where have 1,2 layers and a back round. I am looking for layer-multiply-blending but can't find it on my photoshop :/ I am assuming that i have the same things worded differently. I go to my layer and wht i have for options in the drop down menu are:New,Duplicate layer,Delete layer,Layer style,New fill layer,New adjustment layer, Layer mask, create clipping mask,Arrange,Merge down, Merge visible and flatten image. Which none of these have multi with in them selves either.
Please help
Thanks

No, you're going to the wrong menu. You need to click on the small drop down menu just above all layers (see in this image):
Just researched some images of photoshop elements, it also has this menu.

Well actually this drop-down menu seems to be in the same place as the 'normal' Photoshop You could try downloading GIMP, which is a free software and as far as I know pretty similar to Photoshop.

If your doubt is rather related to how to use the program itself instead of how to create a PCM jersey (what template to use, etc) or how to place it in game, I guess I can't help that much - after all I've never used Photoshop Elements and even in the 'normal' Photoshop I'm not very experienced. You can find a lot more tutorials and stuff on how to use the program in the internet than by asking me

There it is complete. Now to get it in the game. Which is going to take some work. I would like to show the jersey to you, but i have to get it in the game then take a screen shot. Then i would have to figure out how to get screen shots on here lol.
And besides you already helped me enough with how to create a jersey.
This is my first successful edit in PCM
I am so happy
Thanks again

No, Paint.net is another program, similar to Photoshop. Don't confuse it with the Microsoft Paint.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint.NET
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_(s...(software)
You have a .psd file, which is the file from Photoshop. Open it in Photoshop and save the image as a 32-bit .tga.

Why do you need to open it with paint? And as I said, Microsoft paint is different from Paint.net. If you're trying to open it with paint because of the guide, that part is just to convert the jersey to .tga. If you already the jersey in .tga, then you obviously can skip that part. Just go to 'How to implent it to the game'.
