Q4 PPM Hitomi

I believe I haven't pimped her properly yet.

I'm pretty happy with how she turned out, especially the back of her head/hair.

hawken

is that a uv error on the back of the dress?

KDR_11k

Um, where?

MoP

I think he's talking about the black at the bottom of the dress.

Nice work, KDR, this is probably your best yet. Ever tried anything non-anime?

KDR_11k

The black is on the underside because it seems to me that modeling her panties would just be wasting polies.

Ever tried anything non-anime?

Yes but noone was able to tell . I think my attempt at a General would come closest.

Elbows and knees are definitly the worst part of the mesh, I can't even imagine them to deform nicely at all.

I will not comment on the anime topic though

Anime PPMs are to KDR what gargoyles are to CheapAlert.

too much anime

MUHAHAHAHA

cool to see q4ppms !!!
speaking of this didn't we had some kind of community effort about this before the dominance war ?

Zatoichi

Well done! Yah, val... that thread is still going here and there. Mine will probably take awhile... I think the process isn't as I thought it would be. Not as simple as Q3, Unreal or Tribes was by far. I think there was a recent write up somewhere about the difficulty of creating custom characters in new games and developers need to start thinking about having better tools for the PC mod makers and general hobbyists to get custom stuff into games. Heh, the example it used was a 'naked' skin for Alex in HL2... and it took a long time to get final into game.

It's not any more difficult than Quake 3 (unless you count the slightly higher polygon budget and the normalmaps as difficulties). Okay, so you need a .def now. Those are pretty trivial to write. The .mtr files are pretty much like the .shaders of Q3A.

Zatoichi

Heh, well... I'm not the one with code in my avitar. I don't even know what a .def or a .mtr are...
