lots of boxes are not the same thing as assembly lines and that sort of thing. you non-designers wouldn't know about that, but that's ok.

[DaneO'Roo]

*e* @ Nubz* No, thats different. See, tweeks details, all though minor are actually organized and stylized. FD's was just a shitload of fucking squares, 90 percent of it not looking planned at all.

Did that today, still working on it. Haven't had much time away from shit, and i was craving to make awesome, so yeah. That is just the bumps (unfinished bumps), rendered, so even more awesome is soon to come.

[Tweek]

i has progress

there might not be alot of new stuff to SEE, but there's a whole lot of unseen progress :o

[il Duce Primo]

How exactly do you make those little detail things. Like the cracks. Do you just use the cut tool and then chamfer the line and extrude it inward?

dunno if this helps.

note: this is not the way to model, this is purely to produce a good normalmap when smoothed.
don't anyone ever dare using geometry like this in realtime because the world will laugh at you.

<:mad:>

Thoughts??? Should I continue this style or drop it all together.

[Tweek]

CONTINUE BECAUSE IT AM WIN!
honestly though, it's not very defining, it kinda reminds me of the inside of an antique watch, and honestly, i think that's a positive thing.
i think you should maybe do 2 more or something, maybe see if you can define it a bit more, and then you can form a more founded opinion on wether it's something worth going after more intensively.
my opinion: you can do ALOT of cool stuff with that style, i already have some ideas floating in my head now :3
oh yes, creativity has set in!

maybe i should come up with a 3d style that'd go along with it :3

OH btw get on aim, because this cannot be contained in one mind alone!

[il Duce Primo]

Yea that sortove helped. It looks like you just chamfer the shit out if it with a few other things. And I spot soem type of error in the middle left. I think its an overlapping face but I'm not sure. But thank you. And Dane I like the style but I truely loved the forerunner stuff you did. You're the only person I think that can truely make forerunner textures. But since your moving onto the Unreal Engine I guess it's good to use this style. I like it though. I will have to get used to it then.

tweek you've got unneeded lines :downs:

[il Duce Primo]

Those lines don't matter because this isn't going into any engine I don't think. But I bet he will optimise them out when hes fully done.

[Leiukemia]

?? As he already said they are there for the high res normal map. He's using subdivision (I'm guessing), and those lines are necessary to avoid errors when he applies the modifier. It makes it so the edges smooth properly.

Isn't it going into UT3? Doesn't everything in UT3 have unnecessary and gratuitous amounts of little details? I rest my case.
You mean normal maps?

[il Duce Primo]

I got confused about normal maps so I did some research and found this nice tutorial that answered all my questions. Hope this helps any people who are confused about normal maps.

Now THAT is a lot better! It looks like the Forerunners' and Protoss' fully legitimate child, that has received much love and care over the past few hours of its existence. Nicely done.

[Bodzilla]

Protoss?
Forerunner?

I'd say it's something Closer to one of Hr giger's style.
yet different.
completely awesome man, i cant begin to praise you enough.

[DaneO'Roo]

Or more like me not trying to make stuff look like anything?

If anything, I used a bit of australian Aboriginal art for a bit of influence.

added some nice stuff to the side. its a crap angle and render, but i don't care.
ill see if i can post better images later.

stuff is starting to take damn long to render, so i cba taking more pics atm.
http://xs222.xs.to/xs222/07511/side.jpg

i've added some round things to it, it wasn't really my intention, but it came out that way anyway, dunno, seems to have worked out pretty good.

ill be working on it for the rest of the evening, so.. CRIT ON!

[Rob Oplawar]

http://www.spacebrick.net/pictures/blog_gallery/what.jpg
Tweek, what's with this? That's unusually sloppy for you. It looks like unsmoothed terrain. I hope you aren't finished with that area yet...

[DOMINATOR]

So I made the best texture I've ever made, rite.

damn thats awesome... that brown and green really made it pop.

should use that brown with more of your stuff.

[Sever]

If anything, I used a bit of australian Aboriginal art for a bit of influence.


I was saying that it has both ancient and present qualities to it, and is very stoic, not necessarily like either of the two in style, but moreover in concept. Also, it seems to have an almost audial quality, looking like music bars and vinyl records. Also, I can definitely see the Aboriginal influence - we have an Aboriginal art museum near where I live, and my mother and I have been up to see it a few times. Quite amazing artwork, especially when you know the history behind it.

[Tweek]

Tweek, what's with this? That's unusually sloppy for you. It looks like unsmoothed terrain. I hope you aren't finished with that area yet...
good eye ;D
yea that's just unsmoothed.

here's a better pic.

http://xs222.xs.to/xs222/07511/side2.jpg

ignore the most obvious stuff at the bottom-middle bit of the image. same goes for where the thing on the side goes up and meets the top of the cabin bit.
it's taking 7 minutes per render now, and climbing, cba fixing it and waiting another 7 for it to finish again.

note: im not posting this for MASSIVE E-PEEN, but i'm looking for crits, telling me its awesome is nice ofc, but it's not very helpfull :3

[DaneO'Roo]

Looks epic.

Hurry up and finish so I can skinny skinny.

[Rob Oplawar]

I still see errors there, but I'm sure you're well aware of them. :P

Still, idk if that rounded cab fits in with the wheel assemblies- both are very cool, but the cab looks somewhat streamlined, while the wheel assemblies are huge bold angular things... but then, you're doing this off of a concept drawing someone else made, no? I remember seeing something like that a while back... mind linking it here so I don't have to go dig it up?

e: oh also, just out of curiosity, what's the poly count?

also:

http://xs222.xs.to/xs222/07513/bombarut.PNG
dano, make normalmap ok, it doesnt eat bumpmaps.

[DaneO'Roo]

allrighty

also wheres the specular?

[Roostervier]

Going to give that a parallax map? It's actually quite easy and a sort of tut explaining it is on this (http://book.hourences.com/tutorialsue3mated3.htm) page. It would look awesome with parallax mapping tbh. :D

[Tweek]

parallax mapping modifies UVs, only works on tiling textures, so not on skinned stuff.

@dano, in your next-gen-textures-thread

[FireDragon04]

Lookin' good. It looks very 'ut3ish' lol. Also the map that pic is on Tweek, is full of WIN!

[DaneO'Roo]

You know what else is full of win?

http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/5747/aboscifi2renderedeh9.jpg
That's actually not done, It's just a mockup of what it might look like. There will be more stuff added outside that thing. It's not meant to tile either btw, just a sort of crossroads-joining-of-multiple-corridors-middle-central-piece-thing.

:3

[Mass]

Art deco ftw, and that, my friend, looks like some ass kicking art deco style sci-fi win-ness.

Maybe it could go in some sort of digital-zeppelin type thing, idk: But it looks like sex.

[Sever]

I'm getting a better eye for your artistic styles, and I can see that it isn't finished yet (at least not by your high standards). Are you designing these for something, or just practicing with a specific style? I'm loving the looks of all of it except the eight black spheres, due to the fact that they pull your eyes along the horizontal/vertical axises, detracting from the thoroughly established diagonal axises, and also pull attention away from the center. The unfinished 'eggs' (with the glowing green bars) appear too large in my opinion, but that may just be their unfinished-ness and the black spheres putting stress on their shapes.


Also, were you playing on Diesel PL3 today?

[DaneO'Roo]

No I haven't played halo online in MONTHS.

Also yes your spot on.

The colors do look the same, but its not the same texture. And that game would be eve.

Ok...i got sooooo bored i started doing a 50/50 3DS/PS Starwars image.
It's still heavy WIP and taking input so, hopefully will have alot of 'pew pew' and dog fights in there. The thing I'm happiest with is the 'blowing up ship' as my PS' editing was :) there but theres alot there already if u look close, hopefully alot more to be added too.

I like the tires but if you add more detail to the actual rims it may suit the hog if you sported the hog out more. Which would be cool, if you could add detail to the hog and make it more 'sporty'.

http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii256/echo216/tire3.png

Try messing with materials and smoothing, especially with the rim, i like the indent in the middle but the 'stretched down' holes make it less appealing and may/could be fixed with fixed smoothing groups. Might just be me...who knows, also with the current smoothing it looks like foam, or something, so making it sharper would make it look more like metal.

[Kalub]

Alot of wheels have the smoother look to them you describe, and with a nice chrome material I think it would look nice.

Even then, I agree with you. Something like this would look awesome....

the Bloodgulch texture is temporary, untill i make a proper one for Helix canyon. (only have to swap out that one texture, to make it work for helix canyon.)

it's not done yet, so it'll propably grow more. this only builds the ground.
now i need to add the bit which renders the cliffs, and stuff those on a vertex blend on a seperate UV channel.

Even if she's doing it for the sake of the fact that this is a website comprised of BOYS, she wants to be funny and laugh with the sexist jokes, and she sells herself short.

She makes herself seem like a stupid helpless girl, and I'm sure she thinks different of herself. I would never be like, "Ohh, I'm a girl, pity me, I can't do anything right because I'm female and you're a boy and you're so smart and strong lol help me with this I'm dumb" because I know when I have limitations, but I am NOT weak and I am NOT stupid and I shouldn't have to act it to get the accolades of the boys on this website.

So my advice is toughen up, get an identity, and don't hide behind being a girl and act ashamed of it. Goodness.

okay, the sarcasm wasn't too obvious tbh. but lights and aerowyn definitely overreacted, lol. gg internet again.


Well I'm sorry if I'm staring straight into the computer and I don't see anything, I guess that means stormy is blind too?

Seriously.
I guess it looks slightly distorted there....but when I compared it to the wall in front of it (at the same angle) it didn't see THAT disorted so I ignored. It's a stretch if you ask me, cuz I still don't really see shit.

cliff needs textures but looks good nonetheless could use some more organic detail on the cliff like cracks and maybe trees breaking out of some of the cracks..depends on the type of enviroment your trying to get across

Not finished yet. Yes, I've been inspired by Dano a lot.

I'd like to know what your think about it, if that's a good start and what should I change.

[n00b1n8R]

Dano was the first thing I thought of when I saw yours. yours reminds me more of aborigional art though for soem reason, with less futureistic stuff.

are you going to put colour to it? I'd like to see what you do :)

[DaneO'Roo]

Looks great Lux, but you need to rethink about how some shapes touch other shapes and stuff. At the moment, nearly all the lines are joined as 1 big shape. Also, think a bit more about how the top and the bottoms meet the tops and the bottoms of the page.

:D

[FireDragon04]

Direct clone xy flip. Nice. It's a good model...ish. If your cloning make differences, identical symmetry is not only annoying to me now after studying so many landscapes and architecture, it doesn't look right. So well...what ever your going to do to join then, make it good, because your off to a good start. But make slight differences.
Good start!

[Disaster]

theres not going to be 2 in teh actual bsp
i rotated it so you could see different parts more clearly

[FireDragon04]

Kay, thats cool then. Is it an enclosed chasm or is that just like half of it so far and it will be open. like BG. or more like 2 or more connected areas?
Either way, good start. Hope to see more.

[Disaster]

hmm..thats what ive been working on..im trying to figure out which would have better gameplay, if anybody has suggestions im willing to listen

[Mass]

looks ok, you should probably smooth to see if some of those more drastic non-planars need to be delt with.

[il Duce Primo]

Yea. I guess i forgot to tell you that step to fix those nonplaners.

But I got bored and made this.
Hopefully tomorrow I can finish the top and add in some brush and roots sticking out.

Looks like you kinda overdid the effects on the last two...noise reduction and/or something? 2nd one looks like it's straight out of a game to me and the last one just doesn't feel that....real.

But they're still really nice of course. And I still hate how you've got such an awesome location.

hmm...heres the bsp smoothed .the smoothing isnt the best because i gave it an autosmooth, anyways here it is

http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii256/echo216/bspsmoothed.png

[Reaper Man]

Don't be lazy. Do it properly, it needs some hard edges, geez.

[Disaster]

i used autosmooth because im not going to smooth it until i get the bsp finished..i just autosmoothed to see the nonplanars and what everybody thought

[Reaper Man]

Pointless. If it's not finished, why bother? You should be able to spot the nonplanars without smoothing anyway.

[Disaster]

nvm...rofl..mass wanted to see if any of the drastic nonplanars needed to be fixed or if it looked fine in smoothing..i only smoothed it because i can just press autosmooth right now...when i get the ground geometry done im going to smooth it

[Mass]

I just wanted him to see that there are faces that need to be reoriented to look right, and it helps if he has a basic knowledge of what smoothing will be able to take care of and what needs actual fixing.

[Disaster]

here comes mass to get my point accross rofl :hist101:

I put the GRAVITY HAMMER into WoW, focus Dano, and the texture is fucked up. :)

Are you kidding me, why don't you just take my advice, and shush. The texture is fucked because I cant link the blp file to the m2 model data, I don't have the knowledge to do so. Although, the texture is there it cannot be shown and the renderer applies the defualt.blp

Hunter, your gravity hammer is still a bit disproportionate at the head and around other parts like the handle.

...Since when were the fighters that big?

The Venator Class is 1,137 meters in length while the Vulture Droid Fighters were only 3.5 meters in length.

Distance, need to mess with the shadows. But if you see the distance of the Venator's then you can see...
And it is still a WIP, just mocking it up atm.



CLUTTER

Not Clutter, Just war...lol. I wish it was more cluttered like the opening 30seconds after the beginning title scroll of SW-EP3 but no.

[DaneO'Roo]

The textures need alot of work.

[Kalub]

No, thats cluttered. :(


either way I like things simple, and 13144523523 ships pointing in on one focus point disturbs me

[DaneO'Roo]

Especially when they're all nearly the same ship. It'd look ok with maybe 2 big ones and just heaps of little ones.

[PlasbianX]

http://www.gameon365.com/sonicxp/animatedfun.gif

Its shit. Needs moar transparent backgrounds, better smoothing around the face, and a chat bubble (or cloud).

[Sever]

Also, if you are going to create a focal area with all of the ships' alignments, make sure that something is in that focal area. You currently have all of the lines pointing to your one open area, which really brings out the massive clutter and unwanted diorama-like feel. Make a believable (in the Star Wars sense) battle layout before you do the artistic touch-ups next time (even though most of art is proper placement and use of space).
