Here's something you're free to use, though it's still needing a new bump map in-game at this point:
Here's the *.texture file rar'd up with directory structure.If I recall correctly, this same file is referenced by both male and female models now.
It's an old edit so I forget a bit, like what the proper DDS settings were and all. If you're familiar with the original alien face texture you can see that I aligned everything to it as precisely as possible. The sad thing is, I used a deprecated version for all my alignments and now it doesn't match up to the
new bump map at all, and I don't even know where that bump map is to fix it. :/ The alpha in this file is just a color mask. I used it to mask out the eyes so they stay brown and to give the high points of the topology a little highlight.
If anyone knows what file is referenced for the alien face bump map, and what pigg it is in, point me to it and I'll make it actually match this.
That's really why I thought to post this texture. Now that nobody is worrying about violating their license agreement, maybe folks can pool experience to figure out more about this stuff. I never had anyone to ask when things messed up, and it seems almost every time I go in to muck with the *.texture files the thing is using a different DDS compression setting. Or something else would mess up for no obvious reason.
One of the big problems I ran into was reflection masks. Maybe I just don't have the right DDS tool, but I never could figure it. Every time I modified a file with a reflection mask the game would flip the reflection upside-down. If anyone knows how to make that work right, I should have an old replacement for the metallic textures here somewhere that removes the indented bands and adds a new bump map for a clean
Silver Surfer type base texture.
Personally, I wish it were possible to bring the old faces up to the level of the steampunk and sci fi textures, rather than just downgrading them to be consistent. Alas, though I'd be keen on tackling that, I never saw analogous displacement maps for the old face textures in the piggs.
The devs were able to cheat using higher resolutions on most of the newer assets, too.
