Hi , so back here again tried some scale test and partial block out in 3D Max. Here is the partial study i did on the props and dome plus added the final height based on what UDK player scale is. Dome is they tricky part and in case if anyone having issues do check out Modularity stuff on Polycount. :) It will save you…
Here´s what I have been doing. Starting to form. Not too many day left now, still a lot of texturing and lighting to be done. I'm saving the trinkets in the back rooms for later as they don't affect the overall scene as much as the rest of the stuff, I´ll make them if I have time to spare come deadline. Have a good weekend…
Looks like good Progress! Those pillar-rings is a difficult shape to model, you have some nipping between the rings that's going to show in the bake. To save time(there's A LOT of props in this scene) I made floating geometry for the highpoly (as in not merged at all, just individual meshes duplicated around) The bake from…
Decided to try my hand at it today, the challenge looks great! This will be my first time trying out the monthly contest. For this process I want to try painting the texture sheets by hand first and then model, rather than the usual saving them for last. Here's a rough blockout of the first sheet so far. Focusing on…
@ tkfxity - That colour look up table is going to save me loads of headaches in the future. Nice one @ JamesArk - Awesome stuff man Everyone is smashing this, I need to catch up. Maybe take a day off work :poly142: I started the ornate fencing piece today, playing with the UDK Mat editor and then experimented with more…
Ok so after several test with measurements on grid in 3DS Max, I have locked on the coordinates :D. Since I wanna learn modular on circular patterns this is perfect method :D I guess. The trick is not to model in circular shapes (except pillars and few small props) . Instead I am rolling it like a red carpet, say you have…
HELP! When I opened cryengine today I get a: "Files could be corrupted" message that prevents me from opening the map. Tried to open an earlier project but same there, "Files could be corrupted" then nothing. Worked fine yesterday. I can open the Forest example map but none of my own.. Anybody know what might have…
