Re: Pirate Fort. Better way to model for game engine?
I guess it all depends on how it's gonna be seen in game. If the player will only see this from the ground focus your detail on the gates, wood trunks and obviously terrain and foliage. If the player can, however, walk on that bridge up there effort on the roof is justified as it could be seen up close. But I second… -
Re: Micro Uzi - Needs Texture Critiques
Looks pretty good. Are you using any normal maps? Let them do some work on small details (Replace bump map). I don't know what level of detail are you going for and what level of optimization you wish to achieve, but you can pack textures more modularly. -
Re: Unwraping a curved surface to a flat texture?

Re: Nancy's Tavern
Looking good, especially the wattle/timber wall section. The roof and stone walls are looking very flat though. I don't know if you're planning to optimise later, but right now you've got a tonne of unnecessary geometry. Check this out if you haven't already! http://wiki.polycount.com/ModularMountAndBlade -
Re: Unity3d enviroment
Don't make those logs individual, make them a facade that you can use and texture modularly. -
Re: How to make this model in low poly?
I would suggest crease modeling the low poly ontop of the high poly, and baking from there, look up at this, same idea applied to the breasts as the top of a building: http://wiki.polycount.com/ModularMountAndBlade -
Re: Duplicate to save texture memory?
I'd say make a few variations, even. Have a couple of loose planks, but also have models that are 5 or so planks as one object. This will save a you a lot of instances and will allow you to build things much faster. Yes the best way to get a high resolution texture is to work modularly and instance objects around. For… -
Re: Loss of Motivation
Yeah I don't know you so it could be a number of things. There is always that "postpartum depression" with many big things in your life, be it school or shipping a game. Hopefully not, but possibly subconcoiusly you have that feeling like you've made it or more likely should have made it. I know people like this from my… -
Re: Medieval building(s)
I take it you've seen this? http://wiki.polycount.com/ModularMountAndBlade Yours is more on the clean side, but even cleaner structures have a bit of messyness and funk throughout. Get some edge loops on the wood and break up the straight edges. I like the grunge on the roof, but it's not matching in other places, whether… -
