Texture Sheet

A lot to be done..

[andrei313]

Awesome work on the texture. What's the thing beneath it in the left crate? For support, locking mechanism? What's the tri count ? Show some wire too if you can although I can see how it was made...

[Insulaner]

andrei, I actually don't know what it's called, but it's used to angle the rocketlaunchercrate.
Tri count is 192 and I show a wire the next time.. Forget it this time.

/edit: Oh yeah, it'd be nice if someone could tell me why the normalmap isn't visible when the diffusemap is applied..

Looking very nice, strong texture and definitely fitting the theme, gj

Which is definitely a yay..

Now! Normalmap.. diffusemap.. Working along together.. explain!

[motives]

the normalmap is pretty weak so it could be that the diffuse is washing it out.. some more info would probably be needed though.. Whats your software/settings/lights etc etc

[Insulaner]

Got it working now, it actually was too weak.
I gotta redo anyway, looks like Doom3 and nobody wants that..

Well you need to define different areas with different strenght on the normalmap, now it looks like you pretty much just upped the strenght on the filter. On this object i suggest you model a simple highpoly of the mainshapes and then render out a normal map from that. Then use the filter for the woodgrain etc.

Chris had a pretty good tut/tipsthing going on in some other thread that covered this exact process but i cant seem to find the thread right now. Think its in the work in progress forum somewhere

Couldn't be arsed to render twice, so you get only a Max render wire..

looking good. only things bugging me is the large font (doesn't make it look more realistic... chances are anyone handling this stuff knows what can happen, maybe scale it down a bit) and the typo (should be 'missiles').
