Building Modularly....Advice
So I have a very curious question for all of you here at PC. We have a game world we are working on that includes many different styles of environments, everything from snow covered mountains, to city blocks, with a large number of environmental objects and interactive objects that will be within each. My question to you… -
Building guns modularly
I'ved noticed that guns like the G3, MP5 etc have the same body styles, same with AK's, m4s, ar-15s, and some HK guns and there are many more. What im asking is there anything wrong production/portfolio wise with creating different barrel variations or interchangeable body types to reuse models? Like If I make a m4 body… -
Best Practice/Method for Breaking up a scene Modularly...
I know it's been asked before, but we are finally making the call to not have an art team build an entire map based on a pre-set design. Instead we want to break the various pieces of the "city" down so we have more options customization wise as the game expands. My question is, beyond certain features, it gets very hard… -
Re: Is there a specific rule regarding the length of a wall, or can it be any dimension for modular
I'd also advise that art is an iterative process. Planning can save some time but if you don't have lots of experience it's hard to predict how a project will go, and that makes planning less useful. For a student project I'd do as Eric suggests and treat it as if it was a one off asset so at least there's art to look at,… -
Re: trying to think around modular environments
It depends on what that ground is. If it's sidewalk, and you don't mind having your streets at 90 degree angles to eachother, it's very easy to make it all modularly. If you're talking about a grassy hill with a rocky cliff on one side, you COULD make it modularly, but you're likely not going to get much reuse out of those… -
Re: Organic environment... where to begin?
if you're creating this level in a modern engine, you're going to probably want to do it modularly or somewhat modularly. I generally design spaces using lego pieces (and i do the same with organic stuff) build out the tunnels as re-usable tunnel pieces... and change the props and lighting in the tunnel to make it look… -
Victorian House Scene (WIP)
This is a project I am working on in one of my classes. Ref for the house: Ok right now my house is at 27,000 tris. I haven't optimized it at all so far, and I'm going to leave the poly count a little high for it since I'm building it modularly and going to import it into unreal 3. I'm shooting for about 25,000 tris when… -
(HELP NEEDED) S.S. Nomad Control Station
Hello polycounters! So I'm a student, and this is a scene I have been slowly working on for a while now for my portfolio. The idea for this was to be a game ready environment rendered in UDK or Unity. This is my first environment piece, and I was really confused about how I should go about doing it, so I just decided to… -
Re: Noob question about connecting the seam on interiors
So, if by floating geometry, you just mean disconnected geometry, then yes. It's fine to have a room be made out of separate pieces (walls, floors, ceilings, pillars, etc.) In fact, it's often preferable in games because you can achieve modularity (being able to reuse a wall piece over and over, and hook it up to various…
