Seems like the concept is not an existing UAV, though it resembles Predator or Reaper UAV's most.

It should definitely resemble one but better if it looks different in its own way!"
A new Unmanned Arial Vehicle now"

I just thought of it while watching transformers revenge of the fallen.

[edit] Does anyone have a link to info about gloss maps? Not sure how to make one as I just learned they were being used in games.

Kaleb3d · 13-09-2009, 07:31 PM

lloyd · 13-09-2009, 07:32 PM

yeah whats this gloss map you speek of? also can people use a detail map?

xpressionist · 13-09-2009, 07:38 PM

Why use gloss maps to help control what area have specular, when you can just paint a specular map with the areas you want specular in? Or am I missing a bigger picture?
Not sure if I have time but will definitely try to get onto this challenge

Gloss maps control the falloff of the specular highlight, specular maps control its intensity

oalexis · 13-09-2009, 09:42 PM
