WIP not WIN lol

Or just not even allow ported material in the WIP section? There's not much WIN with Frankensteining models? I like to scan the WIP's and seeing people's improvement or any new techniques or just see the creativity and effort this site still has. I know I'm being a baby about it but there's something about the artist in me which feels it's deeper than that

Jesus I think I've found a viable solution we could all agree on... how about if you won't put the ported material in its own section... then have some sort of pin or stamp that says something along the lines of "Original Material" or made exclusively by jkhub members or anything along those lines? I'm grasping for straws lol

I can literally remember the first day the first model the first conversation we had about allowing ports lol that's ptsd

t just kind of craps on their effort and is a huge spirit bomb

My main issue with porting is how they are all just smashed in with everything else. I understand that this is not exactly a modeling site per say... but it has enough talented people willing to work for free with a passion that their attempts at building a TIE Fighter shouldn't be compared to LucasArts' team of maybe 20 or so modelers, texture artists, and animators that all went into that model. Then while that artist is trying to figure it out you just say screw it and upload a por...

I found a personal solution... I just build for me. I might still dabble around the Requests section, maybe fill a few requests... but I learned not to care what people think and just build for me. It is quite disconcerting and I do get my spirit broken a lot by disproportionate criticism... but I never stay down.

I appreciate the advice man, thank you.

I see no reason to continue the convo anyways I think the point was made.

lol oh youuuuu

I appreciate the link too lmfao

If you love this engine youll treat her right XD Not bog her down with models meant for another engine and expect people to have an enjoyable experience MP or SP

and thats just to have like 3 npcs on screen at once. what exactly are we doing here guys? are we compilers of random internet stuff or are we capable of better?

do not want. If I were to make a TFU TC with ripped models... we'd be talking 50k+ polies on the screen at all times just from npc's

seems like a lot of bs for a model that has 10k+ more polies than we need.. 10k extra polies per character mind you.

Maybe not HiDef is still useable, or u can retouch the textures...maybe we can adjust the models to fit the skele better, maybe we can slice them to have dismemberment...

theres a proxy diffuse. Notice how it isnt exactly hi def. Could have something to do with the ripper whoever used to obtain it i dont know

Ahhh I see. Regardless... It doesnt work for us. Good info though man and good to see you. Now I'll go google PBR XD

I need a setup like this for it basically... where i can put the stuff on the right on my 2nd monitor and just go in http://imgur.com/a/lix74

I also need to get a few apps for it, just a basic screen recorder, something that shows my mouse clicks, and something that shows my keyboard presses so its easier to follow along. I hope im explaining this correctly.

Its daunting to come here as a newbie and see someone model something like a TIE Fighter, it just looks impossible from pic to pic for a newcomer. Maybe if I do everything live people can see how simple and realistic it is to accomplish and we may get some new modelers. I also want to fine tune my stuff and live crits... cant get much better advice than that
