The best way to do glass is with the ComplexRefraction Channel Model(very top of the material tab). There isn't much documentation on this feature, but this is the basics of how to use it: A. You need a 32 bit diffuse texture, the RGB defines the color like a standard material, and the alpha channel is a mask to mask the…
That tutorial is very old but that's a big big mistake and I know I did more than that, even back then. You need to learn how materials act in the real world to create a proper spec map. For example is rust shiny? Would the wood have a finish on it to make it shiny? Is the metal glossy or matte? Once you figure that out…
Snowfly - Thanks man! I got started on adding some more horizontal dents and scratches. Let me know what you think :) AsylumSeaker - I kinda like the lights on the ship, so think I'm gonna keep them. But we'll see how it looks ingame with all the shaders and stuff on. The red and blue things are there to try and define the…
Few things jump out at me. For the texture, the normal map isn't translating very well when the diffuse map is applied, mainly on the small details such as the rivets and the black strip things. You can help that by deepening them in photoshop, and also by using the spec map to bring out the normals more. Use a tool like…
Oh yea.. for a short time it was starting to slow down to a drag.. But the last few episodes were off the hook.. You already knew that Sayid and Anna would dig up the grave.. For the cool and calculating type of guy that "Henry" seems to be, he didn't seem to see that one coming.. So many more ways that the "Losties" are…
you probably want to tone down any harshly contrasting pixel lines for this res. There's no filtering on the DS, and you may well find that your details scintillate badly as the camera moves, turning your tank into a flickering mess. A non-filtered render may suggest some of this, but emulating the lit DS screen would be…
Great fun everyone.. Some excellent tactics by all.. Scott was a wicked copilot/gunner, as was ElysiumGX and a few others too.. I definately have to get used to the full version. (Took me about 20 minutes to get hang of the chopper flying again after I reset all the controls.) And from the 4-5 boards I saw so far, the game…
