Hey I just finished the 1st version of the ogre club, but somehow im not rly happy, was playing arround with masks and noticed that masks are really important, how to make the handle less shiny? And someone know great Photoshop tutorials? Photoshop is even much harder to learn then blender^^

Hey, just wanted to ask what exactly are the masks for and the chanels in photoshop? I saw that valve always uses different masks on different heros but i cant find some useful infos on the web. People are often working with the chanels and changing things there, what do they improve?

Thanks^^

Thanks HellJumper, solved it, the Alpha channel in the color .tga coused the porblem, forgot to change it as it is in valve's .tga, thanks a lot!

Well I renamed the file and saved in a completely new folder. Actually he doesnt asked me to change the filepath, how do I change the filepath? What i've done now: I deleted all the old folders, renamed the file in blender and exported it. And the file is .smd dunno wether this is important but it still does not show up that triangle in dota, but im sure the problem must be here, coz earlier i just saved (exported) over the existing .smd file.
Maybe some1 here has an idea? ^^
Thanks so far!

thanks a lot, most competent answer i got so far, gonna try it, I always tryed to overwrite the existing file, maybe that is it, gonna try it later!
thanks for the feedback!

Hello guys! Im almost ready with my 1st item but i have a problem with a face. In blender i can see the face it shows up how i want it, textures are also on it, but when i upload the model in dota 2 this face doesnt show up, its a single triangle, and recalculating didnt helped.

Would be awesome if someone can give me a hint where the problem could be.
Thanks a lot!
