Boba Fett : Bounty Hunter 2

[eezstreet]

Does this follow the story of 1313?

[Mandalorian]

I have only seen concept art and a few trailers with game devs.

The idea is the whole game takes place on coruscant and you hunt bounties right?

Ideally a one tough barve to take in alive.. 

 

I'd prefer to have many varied aliens/ villanous sorts with neutral coruscant security. rival bounty hunters and mercs hired for the bounty's protection. 

The trailers i have seen, i tried to make a blend of concepts, i deem the game trailer models from 1313 as place holders and I simply put the main protaganist seen as boba and his friend as dengar.

I am trying to keep the universe in mind aswell as timeline.

when was 1313 set?

 

I plan to have my timeline after Boba  escapes the sarlaac,

coruscant was the capital of the empire and with It's main authority gone there would be great turbulence in the blacksun and other criminal orginisations as happens when a goverment is overthrown by ewoks.

[Horatio Culver]

1313 was planned to be set from 10 BBY—5 BBY. And a fun fact: In Boba Fett: Maze of Deception, which was written in 2003 and took place in 22 BBY, Boba Fett used the alias CT-1313 when confronted by a clone trooper. Coincidence?

 

Although Tempest Force and a large portion of the Imperial Navy was defeated at Endor in 4 ABY with both the Emperor and Military Executor killed and two of the largest and most expensive projects ever undertaken by the Empire destroyed, the Empire remained as the most prominent government in the galaxy, as they still controlled Coruscant. Coruscant was not liberated until 7 ABY during the Seizure of Coruscant, and at that point the New Republic took over. There really wasn't a time where criminals controlled Coruscant during Boba Fett's lifetime.

 

I do like the idea of fighting various alien smugglers, mercenaries, and other bounty hunters working for your bounties.

[Corto]

So bad they cancelled 1313. It was the first appealing Star Wars title since the Jedi Knight saga. While playing Mass Effect and Uncharted I thought about it several times "What's taking Lucasarts so long to make a game with this gameplay???".

[Mandalorian]

I have thought the same Corto. I often have been tempted to mod fallout or skyrim to that end. a open world coruscant would be amazing to explore.

Got shaders working. comments/ criticism?

Maybe it's me, but I think the green armor is just a little to bright. Shader wise, it looks pretty cool.

[Mandalorian]

It will look less green depending on where you are standing.Those are the extremes of brightness on the armor. What i need to figure out is how to get the shader folder to work properly.

 only one line is working properly, but it is definately an improvement ingame. I'll release it to Corto if he wants to review it.

[Corto]

Go ahead. The model is soon going to be obsolete anyway and I'll probably use your shader file if it looks better. Thanks.

[Omicron]

Legs look a bit black, and the top of the visor should be more narrow vertically, but apart from those, it's looking good! 

[Mandalorian]

I Can't seem to get the shader working on the legs, which is why I posted the shader line, hoping someone could fix it, heres a gif preview of the shaders on the armour.

@ Corto I am willing to help in anyway I can. I would be honored to do so.

[Corto]

You added an enviroment map, looks really cool. Could you make it so the effect is more subtle? I will definitely use the result of this.

[Horatio Culver]

I don't actually think Boba Fett's armor should be shiny at all. It's not like he polishes it every day. In the movies, it's really just scratched paint, and no special glazes or whatever. However, I do think you're starting to get the colors more accurate (brightness, hue, etc).

[Inyri]

The green paint should be fairly matte, I would think. Having a very SLIGHT env map on the metal where the green paint is scratched off would probably look pretty wicked though.

[Mandalorian]

I definately plan to adjust the envmap to only show in certain areas, i am sure I can oce I figure out why the shader isnt affecting the whole model as i want.

Any help would be nice on what I am doing wrong:

        blendFunc GL_SRC_ALPHA GL_ONE

        alphaGen lightingSpecular

    {

        map models/players/mbmandy/envmap1

      

        tcGen environment

        blendFunc GL_SRC_ALPHA GL_ONE

        detail

        alphaGen lightingSpecular

    }

This would be a great help as i can adjust the skin a lot better to be matching and then I can adjuist the alpha channels to show only the scratched metal and glass on the model.

You may have to use a spec map rather than the env map, that way you can just copy your original texture and adjust the areas only where you want there to be shine by making them brighter with higher contrast. Environment maps would only affect a certain area if you modeled it off on it's own, they always cover an entire object, if you find the image the env map shader uses you may be able to overlay it with your texture and make an alpha channel on areas you don't want it so that it doesn't affect it but not sure if it'll work.

You can make partial env maps with some fancy shaders, but it takes multiple images & so the package will be larger. Not a huge deal, but I'm terrible at troubleshooting shaders without the actual mod package to test with.

I haven't really followed this thread, saw some early pics and thought it was kind of interesting. These recent pics are spectacular though, I was pleasantly surprised. Great work man!

 

EDIT: I think the green needs to be slightly less faded, but as you said it changes in different lighting so as long as that's as bright as it gets I'd be happy. Also tone down the shader, his armor shouldn't be THAT shiny, just a bit shiny. Look at some clips from the movie if you can for reference.

[minilogoguy18]

^Armor has ZERO shine in the movies. Very dirty and matte, lesson is that just becuase you can make a shader for something doesn't mean you should.

 

Inyri's suggestion a few posts up was the best solution by far, only a small shine in spots where the paint has chipped and bare metal is showing.

I should say the parts of the armor that Inyri spoke about is what I was referring to. They shouldn't be as shiny as the current shader.

I'll try this out. it's a difficult model to resin as it has three layers, ambient spec and normal.I am trying to override it to just use one but I am not familiar with the functions of shaders enough, I'll try your method tho I think  what is happening is that i can't override the skin to just use one layer.

 

Your signature scares me.

Your signature scares me.

He tends to have that effect on people.

[Mandalorian]

Corto I hope your new boba model comes out soon! I have been haaving some issue getting the torso armour to show, due to the way it is modelled. I hope it isn't modelled the same way, as It won't allow me to edit the skin how i want.
