Noodle Posted January 27, 2019 Author Posted January 27, 2019 Day 9 Mod: I've been practicing to advance my modelling more, but my recent attemps have failed, so I decided to work on another quick pose resource to upload today. Hopefully it'll be useful for people who need more animations for their mods!

Psyk0Sith Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 I will repeat myself again...BEVEL those edges, don't leave them flat at 45 degrees! The low poly version, if it's the actual game mesh, should have tons of details removed that's why you're using the normal map in the first place to "fake" details on a model without the added cost. The normal map will be enough to fake the details IF you bevel and model your details properly. So, my first entry. @@Sting inspired me to start modelling a crate, so here it is. Highpoly model Lowpoly model

The low poly version, if it's the actual game mesh, should have tons of details removed that's why you're using the normal map in the first place to "fake" details on a model without the added cost. The normal map will be enough to fake the details IF you bevel and model your details properly. In jka, you are joking right? I kept some of the detail in the low poly to look good in a game that does not support normal mapping in the first place. I wont bevel more in the lowpoly because it already has a high poly count for that game. I understand your point, but it feels like super picky and not thought through. If I'd model for ue4 this would be a valid point imo. Edit: Looks like I misunderstood your point. The highpoly is beveled completely, maybe not to the point of your liking. Thats a valid point. The point about removing more details in the lowpoly for a jka mesh still is nonesence imo.
Psyk0Sith Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 What about rend2 man?! Doesn't that support normal mapping?! I was assuming normal maps when i saw the high poly!
Noodle Posted January 28, 2019 Author Posted January 28, 2019 I love reading the discussion since it gives more insight to those that don't know a lot about modeling and optimization! Day 10 Model: This is a very simple model I did to save time while mapping. I mixed a lot of recent techniques I've learnt and used textures from textures.com to make it look more realistic. I used basic color painting to make the parts that should have less light darker and also to add some slight shadows to some zones in which I wanted to give the illusion of depth. I'll make more variations of this table in the following days and I will also try to experiment a bit more with hand-painting stuff.

SomaZ Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 What about rend2 man?! Doesn't that support normal mapping?! I was assuming normal maps when i saw the high poly!Yea, there will be a rend2 normal mapped one and I will rework parts of the highpoly. I was kind of hurt that you said that I did not bevel those edges even if every damn edge is already beveled. Though the low poly model will remain the same, because I need to support the vanilla renderer and rend2. I also noticed that the alignment between the lowpoly and the highpoly was slightly off when I was baking them. So pls, dont caps shout BEVEL to me again. I'm rusty, not a noob.

Noodle Posted February 1, 2019 Author Posted February 1, 2019 You mean if you're not short of time, right? No, I meant what I said. Doing kitbashes takes way less time than creating your own stuff from scratch. I've been short of time recently because I'm moving out to a new place, hence why I might no be able to do what I want to during these days. Today I wanted to do something a bit more complex, but I wasn't able to properly do what I wanted to, so instead I updated the female head model with a new object. Download link is same as before.

Artemis Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 I can't commit to making something every day, but weekly might be possible. xDThis is just a bar stool. The chrome might be too much, since it covers up the original shading.

Droidy365 Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Not sure if I'm able to commit to this, but here's a simple file I made.Something I noticed when looking through the files is that Raven didn't bother changing Rosh's victory sounds (victory1, victory2, victory3) for rosh_darkWhich means he has a 1/3 chance of saying "I'm a great Jedi!" when he's on the dark side... Yeah, little bit awkward and unfitting, not gonna lie.This fixes that by using a voice clip taken from Skyrim to say "Not so tough now, are ya?"
