own patterns for Sims 3 (Part 4)

This article is part of a tutorial series that deals with the creation of designs employed for The Sims 3 .

Part 1 A four color patterns create purpose of this article is to create a four-color pattern that can then be imported in a further step into the game.
Step 1 - The submission



For this tutorial I have created themselves a template with Gimp. It is a four color image strips. As a special there with me the green in two color shades. You have to tinker now, first, a simple test in Gimp. Pay attention that you are using only four colors. But you can also install a color or color gradations. All elements of a color should be at the end are in a separate layer. Also, each gradation is in its own layer. Moreover, the image must be 256x256 pixels in size and seamless. If you prefer to use my test model, you'll find it at the materials that you can download it with the PDF version of this tutorial.

The result should look something like this:





Step 2 - grayscale images

The next step is to create our original four-color presentation of four stencils. I did so, first filled the strip of white color 1 and then closed with a black-level one. The same I have with the Streaks of color 3 and 4 color made. For Color 2, I scheduled two color gradations. There, I fill the strip for the lighter color also with white and the darker the shade with a shade of gray (R 178 G 178 B 178). Both strips I unite again with a black level. The four new levels look like this and produce the template for color 1-4:

Step 3 - Inserting images in grayscale channels

Now that we have templates for the pattern , we can edit the channels. Create a new image in the size 256 x 256 pixels. Then select the menu item Colors> Components> Cutting ... . Position as
