What are you working on? - Page 24

Hehe, no problem, that's for the CC, I'll keep working on them, and the reason why it's so specular up top is because the light source is very close, I wanted to show how the texture looks from very bright to very dark. the texturing on your model is a lot better, and the wheel is round now

, maybe now it just needs some rivvets and screws? I can't see how it's all held together, unless it's ultra-clean welding.

Here's another couple of textures.

TEXTURE6

For school I'm working on a male characte, actually this was supposed to be just a placeholder, but since I havent made a character in over a year, I was a bit enthousiastic :P

I can really use comments on this, especially on the chest area, the muscle flow seems flawed there. Topology is hard

Pankake: ugh, is there anyway you can render those without that terrible glowing grid? It draws the eye completely away from your work. Also, spec maps should be colored unless you're working with some ancient tech.

Pankake · 11-23-2006, 12:03 PM

Ancient tech it is, spec hasto be in the alpha of the diffuse which means greyscale only and you input color values in the materials script file, I can get rid of the grid, I didn't know you were horrified by such things :P.

damnit, im having some serious issues with rigging this guy. Im using an IK handle for the legs for example, and if i try to bend the knee, the knee rotates outwards

Now someone mentioned something about vector poles as constraints, and I saw them in use, but I cant find how to create them anywhere

FraGGer · 11-24-2006, 01:37 AM

IIRC you need to bend the knee a little bit for the IKHandle to know which way to bend, apparently youve bended it a little bit outwards

Im not sure tho so dont shoot me if im wrong

Schuey · 11-24-2006, 02:26 AM

When setting up the joints I already kept that in mind, it should be something with a pole vector, i only like to know how to create and use thosr thingies.

Having nothing do do earlier today I desided to keep practicing normal mapping, never really tried it till a few weeks ago.
So I broke out an old highpoly mesh I made ages ago and made a quick 5 minute lowpoly mesh to try to normal map. Lowpoly sits at 164polys

I'd really need to put some more detail into the lowpoly to make it look good though but it's still a more or less sucessfull test.

The wheel looks good but why did you use that extra row of edges?

SnowFella · 11-24-2006, 02:57 PM

That extra row of edges in the center is just used to push the rim in slightly compared to the tirewall.
