Hi, does anyone know how I could modify a face, or create tattoos, my own scars? Is the makeup folder out there?

Thanks!

Modifying a puppet head means basically modifiying its mesh. I'd use one of the stock heads provided with MS and its content packages as a starting point.

 

Regarding the tatoos and scars (decals), there is a thread here describing the basics of the procedure. It's not a very complex task; the most complicated part is arranging the directory hierarchy and files required. As a guide, I'd take a look at the contents of the Free Stitches addon provided by Chris Ollie. Nevertheless, I may prepare an archive including kind of a template, to make things a bit easier for you.

How complicated it is to do it in Moviestorm. I thought it would be something simpler, like in The Movies, you take the model of a template, you work the DDS in photoshop and you put it in the folder following the series of the last created

Thanks jamoram!

Not as complicated as it may sound. Essentially, it's the same, with the additional requirement of a file describing the properties of the asset.

 

Also, decals in Moviestorm can easily repositioned, resized and re-tinted by the user. Can be same be done in 'The Movies'?  I'd rather stick to Moviestorm, in spite of The Movies being a far more popular platform: it's much more powerful and capable in every respect, despite its too very well known shortcomings
