My favorites are the airplanes. There are a lot of simple things in those renders (like what I am assuming is a cafe scene with Master Chief) that could be more complex which would greatly add to the detail of the piece.

Still there are many things with each of these models you could improve a lot on. This is all good practice work.

That map is fracture. Sadly, The lightmap UVs that halo CE generated for them screwed up the awesome lightmaps we were going to give it. So now it just has halo CE made lightmaps.

Bad Waffle
January 18th, 2009, 07:23 PM
"screwed up the lightmaps"?
were you using aether to inject new lightmaps after running lightmaps in halo ce to generate uv's?

DEElekgolo
January 18th, 2009, 07:29 PM
You have to use halo CE's generated Lightmaps always. Even when making the high res lightmaps. I got the lightmaps in fine. And most things looked perfect. But there were huge random streaks of black from the crappy UVs. I even tried making the background of the UV white and it turns out it was getting the black from the shadows of objects. It would be nice to have Custom UVs for the lightmaps to stop this limitation.
Also here is something to expect in halo CE as part of project relinquish.

http://i44.tinypic.com/sdiq9d.gif
Dont expect it to be as awesome when it in in Halo CE. Each and every few vertice is rigged to a bone. And this is only about a 30 world Unit quare. Ill find a way to optimise it for halo and still have a good amount of awesome.

What I would love to see that as is cloth, many people only pay attention to awesome models plus textures and forget visual things such as good steam, lightning and other things to create a specific mood, for example, imagine a abandoned military base with old wires hanging about and torn clothes with that applied silently blowing in the wind off those wires, do it correctly and you have a pretty eerie site.

Your diffuse textures are really bland. Just seems like a few colors that were placed on a uvw. You need to add those details that will make the mesh stand out.

Ill be texturing later. I worked all day on that today. Need a good break. Also when I was making that. I was using this dvd (http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com/dvds/ijo01.html). I scimmed across it and noted the important stuff. And then started modeling on my own. The secret to the beautiful topology and poly flow is polyboost (http://www.polyboost.com/).

heh the helmet that nobody liked I thought was pretty cool after you added the lights to it and it did remind me of pikman haha doesnt mean its not cool looking.

You need to remember alot of people here really often don't know what they're talking about (not talking about any one in particular), or will only give you praise when they see stuff they like, and what people like on this forum isn't exactly what everyone else might like too.

Basically if it doesnt look haloish... expect to recieve more criticism.

Also the soldier with the vest is win, altho where it goes from vest to skin im assuming might need more definition, im not sure though.

I don't know why you're bothering with making normal maps and sculpting in zbrush or mudbox or whatever. You're wasting your time. Your high res meshes are terrible. Everything you've done in zbrush/mudbox has amounted to surface scratching.

not to the eye.

you ever seen that dancing ballerna silloutte. if you picture the particles at the base of the star in front of the star then it appears to move clock wise.

if you picture it behind it appears to move Anti-clockwise.
it was anti-clockwise first time i saw it, and now all i see is clockwise.
Coo.


Yeah, and the depth kinda kills any possibility of the contrary.
What do you use to gauge the depth of something?
the fact that things further away look smaller?

the dots that give it "depth" have no discernible difference in size, therefore they dont give it depth, but merely a 3d plane :eng101:

For one, there appears to be a slight angle to the render. It's clear that it is rotating around from right to the front to the left. Also, the particles in front kill it. And yes, I do see depth, and I'll only accept that I'm crazy if DEEHunter says it's an orthoraphic projection.

You'll notice looking at the image, that everything is in quads. So if you really wanna know how many tri's there are, I would think you could figure it out for yourself.

Also, Masterz: He only said that it was a preview of the sky, he never said it was the actual bitmap he was using for the sky. It could very well be just a screen shot of a section of it, or a piece of the cubemap or something.

Look at your very small items. Don't you think you would do much better my moving them elsewhere, making them larger, and, by moving them elsewhere, you'd give other parts more space for edge bleeding?

You need to think out your space usage more. It's better than some of your earlier ones, those were pretty much garbage, but this one still isn't good.

I believe he uses some sort of an automatic unwrapper in all his uv's (http://www.unwrella.com/howto/) as opposed to unwrapping them manually. That's what I heard at least.

"Phew. My hands are tired after this. Battle rifle unwrap. Took a while to do this." - DEEhunter on halomaps

Either except crit when you ask for it or Get the fuck off these forums.

I believe he uses some sort of an automatic unwrapper in all his uv's (http://www.unwrella.com/howto/) as opposed to unwrapping them manually. That's what I heard at least.

"Phew. My hands are tired after this. Battle rifle unwrap. Took a while to do this." - DEEhunter on halomaps

must've been pretty tiring clicking that unwrap button there.

If you're not using a program, then w/e it's not like I care. I'm just going by past claims from your "friends".

Im sure you were talking to disaster since he was the only one I told about unwrella recently. No I did not use that and I showed disaster about the tool when he linked me to the Packer that they had.

I was telling disaster that I was getting private beta's for the UV packer (http://packer.3d-plugin.com/) since one of the coders was at facepunch and invited me to it. After he showed me that I told him about unwrella. There was no beta for it was me and diaster were surprised at the results but he was disappointed about the poly limit for the trial because HE wanted to use it. When I told him about it I was telling him that unwrella uses the same packing engine as the one he showed me. I never used it and I never will use any automatic unwrapping tool.

Headus isn't automatic unwrapping. It has more tools than 3ds max to unwrap. You still have to unwrap it by setting up seams and packing. It doesn't do it automatically.

UVLayout, developed by headus, is a stand-alone application for the creation and editing of UV coordinates for 3D polymeshes and subdivision surfaces. Used by professionals in the games and visual effects industries, by hobbyists of all ilks and by students, UVLayout's unique approach gives texture artists the tools to produce high quality low distortion UVs in significantly less time than they would by traditional methods.

Random pentagons? You cannot have a hexagon sphere without pentagons in it. Also the extrusion of the shapes isnt really supposed to be, so the skin wasnt made for it. I tried using the heightmap made in znormal as a displacement map and it made it look like that. Here is how it was originally supposed to look with normal maps.

The viewport shader is doing something weird to the specular and lighting it incorrectly (it looks like obsidian that's been smoothed in a riverbed).

The Marmoset Engine is rendering it like concrete.

If concrete is what you were going for, I'd go with the Marmoset. If you were going for the polished obsidian look, I'd go with the viewport shader.

Corndogman
June 29th, 2009, 05:22 PM
Do a mix of the two. The viewport one is the right color on the outside, but has too much specular, and the inside needs to look different than the outside. make the inside look more like the concrete you have in marmoset.

How the hell would that even work? Doesn't even have a trigger. Your model is missing quite a few details that were in the concept. As for the concept itself, tell chains it looks un-finished, it has that look to it.

Neither does a covenant carbine, plasma pistol, or plasma rifle. :realsmug:

Yes, but he's sub-dividing AKA High poly model, and a high poly model usually has everything modeled into it.

the design doesn't seem too bad to me, maybe missing SOMEthing. The model looks terrible though. It seems pretty obvious to me that based on the curvey nature of the rest of the gun in the concept, the side that wasn't shown is clearly going to share those curves.

I think anyone who's trying to take that model seriously is just silly. : /

Practicing some stuff with malloy actually. And learned a new way of getting floaters on non-planar surfaces as well.

3ds max viewport so the floaters would show right. The handle is a place holder. Model is for renegade X.
