Construction Site (UDK Environment)

TonyNowak · Mar 2012

I'm trying my hand at a UDK environment for some portfolio related stuff. I decided to base it off a construction site in New York. I decided to start by doing plastic barriers.

There's my wire-frame in Blender.

And then in UDK.

I think it looks nice, but the interlocking joints need to be beveled at the edges as well as the sides of barrier and top part. Thoughts? Suggestions?

*As a side note I just switched over from Unity.

You can still make rid of some polys on that model, theres some polys that are not needed there

Should really make some bevels on those hard edges. Those plastic barriers like that have softer edges. Even with anything that has edges you really can take the extra polys to bevel. One it will give a better transition with light and two nothing in real life has edges that hard except for maybe a razor blade.

But with that said keep up the good work can't wait to see more of this environment. We got lots of UDK folks around here to help you along the way.

Cheers

Yeah, my geometry is a mess on that. I did plan of beveling those edges. But I need to fix the geometry first so my loop cutting works right.

I fixed most all of the geometry, and tried my bevel, I think it need's a bigger bevel.

Are N-gons already possible in blender?!
