ATTENTION BALL MAKERS!! (ball models and shading)

[The Danish]

I haved posted this in another thread but it didn't seem to create much attention so I try again, sorry for the "spamming", but I think it is important!

I may have a small breakthrough on shading of balls..

The shading is linked to the ball model !

I don't know if that is old news to some people, but it's news to me

I found out when I made some adidas balls using models that fits the texture of this kind:

This one is shaded ingame! also on my computer!

My only problem is that the model I usually use that fits with this texture:

is NOT shaded

Does anyone know where to see if there is a difference in the models? I think it must be in the programming / filestructure somewhere... I really have no idea since I don't know nothing about programming or anything in that direction.

Hope someone can help, and that people would be interesserested in shaded balls!

Is there really no one, that knows where to find the difference between the adidas model and the "normal"-model that makes the adidas model (and others) shaded??

Are people interested in knowing this like me or am I all alone with this...?

Unfortunatly, I have no idea what are the differences...

Just to put some images on the issue I have taken some screenshots of different balls (and show their textures so you get an idea of which models are used). All the screenshots are taken on my computer... the two balls on the left of the vertical red line are standard ball... those on right I have made my self...

Ingame screenshots:

You think you can make this ball for me. It's Called the Penalty Bola 8 Campo Pro and it's used in Brazil.

Allthough it looks great, the model the ball is made on is too different from what is used in FIFA 08... so no... I can't... it's too complicated for me... try someone else

And when that is said... this is NOT a request-thread! NOT EVEN a thread where I (or anyone else!) should release any balls!

This is to adress the shading 'problem'!



I have startet looking a little bit in the .o-files, when you open them in the notepad, but it's a bit (!) complicated, so if anyone knows something or has an idea, please post them!
