observe as i resurrect an ancient thread! for good purpose though! if u head over to masseffect.com, u'll find that they've put up a Podcast which answers some [many] of the community's questions.... i downloaded all 3 parts, and am now hyped more than ever! i can't wait to see the achievement lists so that i can plan and…
The RPG should be modeled as 2 pieces; you'll also need to model the booster & motor if you plan on reloading. The flare at the base of the RPG should be vertical, not angled. If you plan on making a commercial pack, you should ensure they are all from a related era - very few games use weapons from ancient times through…
So I'm posting without having read the previous conversation(its kinda late and I'm sleepy ) Nice progress on the texture dude! I would go further with it by adding some light blues and some yellows in the skin and a few more redish and blue shadows. Try Ancient Pigs skin tutorial, its one of the best ones I've found so…
the overall mood is very nice, i like the ancient ruins mixed with tons of vegetation.... i think i would have added some more polys in some areas, like the arc structures that i see in almost every screenshot...plus spme textures looks a little too low res, specially when u see them from near...i think a detail map would…
I wonder if it's your ancient OS holding you back? I know people still cling to it like people clung to windows98 but it could be that they just aren't really optimizing the drivers for XP and only just barely managing to make sure they run. This is just wild speculation on my part... its not like Microsoft would…
Yea I'm ancient, heh. Been here for 7 years. When I was growing up we moved about every 5 years so I keep hitting snooze on moving. Gotta get a dog and a yard soon. Cats are great and all... but yea they're cats. So add that to the list: Move and get a dog. Not one of those dogs I can accidentally step on and kill. If it…
Hi everybody! Long time without updating this post! Here's a creature I started a while ago. I want him to be some kind of fallen/damned/dark gladiator. I want his armor and body items to be fantasy-ish but also highly based on reality, since ancient roman armor is so cool and looks very fun to texture. Will take me some…
I think you need to find some areas of interest and develop them. Like a hero piece such as an ancient artifact or a huge and intricate tree. In fact I quite liked the excavation idea, some generators, tools, scaffolding and all that like the Egyptian explorers of the early 20th century. As for the lighting you could give…
Hahaha, its also an ancient Egyptian god, I found out about the French thing a few years ago and its made me love the name even more. And yeah I've been trying to use Blenders bevel modifier but its really hit or miss where it actually wants to apply, so I'm just keeping the hard edges for the moment until I'm set, then…
