do you always believe everything you read on the internet? :-3
:lmao: + rep.

The exact scale doesn't really matter if you model it right, then you can scale it up and down.

It's something called the scale tool.

Look into it.

[Jay2645]

Yeah, I know about the scale tool.

And it's not on the internet, it's in a book, too! :p

Anyway, I've made a few changes, I have an interior I'm partially satisfied with, my opening and closing doors work, so I think it's time to show another screenie, this one with a light source! Ooh.
http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa115/Jay2645/AT-AT2.jpg

Rescaled, still no bitmaps and no smoothing. The untextured background gives a not-so-subtle hint on what this will be used for.

[Roostervier]

Tweek is right, the head and feet are way off. o.o

Both should be smaller, and make the legs thicker. Looks like I could kick it and it'd snap in half tbh. It should be thicker width wise and thinner length wise, actually.


Ninjaz. Also, the head makes it look like a bobble-head :X

[Jay2645]

Hmm... OK, I'll fix that. In the meantime, here's some normal renders:

[Leiukemia]

I'm sorry Jay, but it's just plain bad. The modelling looks poor, and quite simple. The legs are so obviously wrong it's not even funny. Not to mention the only real thing it has in common with the real thing would probably be a shadow of it. I think you should start over.

I probably should start over, but the AT-AT itself is very simple, and most of the detail can be made with bitmaps.
The legs are wrong, I know I will have to redo them. The Drive Shaft, Body, and Neck are fine, I suppose I can waste more polies to add some details to them if I have to.
The Head can be salvaged, if I did enough work to fix it.

What do you expect, I'm brand-new to plane modeling.

[Hurrvish]

That does not look like plane modeling.

[Bastinka]

Oh god. :puke:

It looks horrible, the feet are way too enlarged but soo short. The head is oversized and done completely wrong. The door looks like crap too, add some detail.

It's nowhere near close to the model.

oFrN22DAX00

Thanks to Kenney for the model.Fix the grenade throw, curl the throwing arm a bit towards the end.
Fix the melee, have him drive the stock forward to arm's length for great, face-smashing justice. Otherwise you're just quickly rotating the weapon in your hand, in front of your face, all faggoty-like. Add some more time between melee start and hit, otherwise it just looks retarded, like a CMT melee animation.
Fix the firing animation, it stutters downward just a bit at the very start.
Fix the reload like I told you over AIM.

Oh and keep it this way.

[Rob Oplawar]

I like the glass. but it needs moar scale reference. mc plz?

[DaneO'Roo]

Leave the glass.

the little roof it has sucks.

the glass on the front side is good.

get rid of da roof.

Yea you really do need to work that, look at some released models of the AT-AT for inspiration or watch Empire Strikes Back...100 times... lol.

I looked at concepts from multiple StarWars ships and weapons along with far to many Sci-Fi films and made this:

Putting those 2 together, i agree with Tweek, the glass roof seems unnecessary, and almost human design, try reworking your idea, or leaving the roof off. Also, like others have said...PLEASE!!! Do a render an image with an 'mc' for reference scale please. We are all intrigued at the scale.

[DaneO'Roo]

oh SHIT.

[Archon23]

^ I second that statement. :awesome:

[Tweek]

ugh, i so hate that generic movie-style scifi stuff, just putting boxes everywhere for "detail" i hate it so much.

[FireDragon04]

Easy to pull off though ;)
PS: Sometimes it only looks like boxes, before you look closer.
Don't judge a book by it's immediate cover :p.

[Tweek]

still looks fucking ugly though.
that whole style makes me sick.

sorry, but i hate it.

[FireDragon04]

Your opinion ;)

Model was checked out by Pete Kneeshaw an ex-game designer, and thinks it's "A model for the portfolio" and "What employers are looking for".

May not be everyones taste but it gets the job done. CLICK HERE (http://firedragonsmaps.net/Crusader/index.htm)...

(How do i no an ex-game designer? He worked with various company's in England, even been a lead environmental artist. He has now settled down in a job as the media technition in my college. Great Guy. Great Friend too. [Had a few wild nights with Pete and lots of college guys]).

[Rob Oplawar]

@FireDragon: Yeah it's pretty good and looks pretty cool, but I'm leaning towards Tweek's side just because it looks very generic to me. It may be quality stuff, but I'm the type to get tired of the same exact quality stuff presented over and over.

On that note, I'm getting really sick of Halo, lol.

I would like to model something as detailed as that, and I was going to with the AT-AT, I got a foot done, but then I got concerned about polygon count.

Not to mention I'm not a modeling god. I'm trying, but it's a long way off, and will probably take me a few years at least to come close.

How many polys is that model, by the way?

100% Better! Very good! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the map finished.

[Rob Oplawar]

wow, yeah, see, that's about twice as big as I thought it was. It's important to have a point of reference.
I understand the green glow results from the teleporter, but I don't really care for that awful pale green it casts on the beige surface. Be sure to skin it carefully.

... it seems like I always say that. I guess it's because nothing posted here is ever skinned. The model is only half the job, people, it's not done until it's skinned.

[Sever]

Here's some pics of the map I am working on. I just have the bridges into Red Base completed at the moment, but I am steadily progressing. This was all done using only spline modeling and moving vertexes/edges. And sorry, Rob, I don't know how to skin yet.

So something new in my quest to animations http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1107554213358233840

WAY too robotic and blocky. Add some more small movements and blending, then it could be pretty good.

[Donut]

after my first mini-fry with my admittedly shitty trip mine model, i am a bit nervous to get feed back on this but im proud of it. yes i realize it has horrible smoothing. i never got around to any real smoothing (ctrl+a, autosmooth)
http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s277/TheKillerDonut/models/turret-1.jpg

[Roostervier]

Tbh, the proportions are all wrong. I'm not particularly good at modeling guns though, so I'll leave it up to one of the better gun modeler's to give you crit.

[Rob Oplawar]

@sever: i take it those bridges are pretty much vehicle-only? any pedestrians would be sitting ducks along them.

Now, it looks decent, but I don't approve of the method of bending it to make a curve. It makes those pods look oddly warped.

A pretty decent start, but definitely room for improvement. But then there's always room for improvement. ;D keep at it.

[Sever]

I know they look warped, but I'm happy with how it is turning out. A good deal of the rest of the map will have the same method of warping applied to it, so it should fit in just fine.

The lower bridge (background of picture 5) is actually infantry only, due to barriers, but the other two are the only incoming vehicle access to the base (which I am currently working on). I also have to break a hole in the high side of the larger bridge that allows infantry to access the area from the first level of the attached structure, while vehicles can still pass over the hole and into and out of the second level of the structure unhindered. I also have to make the structure, and another structure, and all of the complicated terrain, and a whole mess of other things. I will be keeping all of the stock weapons/vehicles/bipeds, however, so I don't have to do anything too complicated. I just have to get it done lol.

Although Hunter has a gross avatar, hes right wtf is that.

Also, the green lighting seems unnessescary, try not using it, or making it not so bright. And how about a clay or mental style render? Give some impact?

Looking good though, keep working on it, looking forward to seeing more.

[Roostervier]

The landing is better, but not very smooth or real-like. :\

Also, since this flew under the radar in the other gallery topic and I will be putting this in halo, what do you guys think?

http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/8289/footbumptm1.jpg
Modeled, UVed, and bumped by me (btw, since the last topic, I reuved the whole thing).

Again, unfinished (parts left out), and the end result probably won't even remain final since I have the rest of the biped to do. Anyway, what do you guys think so far? This is really just a way to practice bump mapping, since I wouldn't get off my lazy ass and just do it, so crit would be very helpful. <_<

Also, bland side is bland (I will be changing that =p).

[edit] Oh fuck, forgot to make the transition from green metal to grey metal (the actual "foot part") more apparent; oh well.

[Bad Waffle]

He should jump out of the pod a LOT faster.

Rooster, the shoe is nice. Fix the smoothing groups tho, i think you could suffice for putting everything as 1 except for the sole.

[Roostervier]

Okay, thanks for the suggestion... I was thinking the same thing tbh. That area on the "buckle" is blegh.

[Bad Waffle]

Rooster, were you the one who modeled the whole MC? if so, i really encourage you to continue on and bump map the whole thing, it's a great experience.

[Roostervier]

Yes, but I had to restart because in order for my new system to work I had to reformat. D:

This model is beginning to be a whole lot better than the last. This time, I'm keeping the limbs and stuff separate though, so it's easier to UV. Once I am finished, I am going to weld all the connecting verts, and rig the bones. Then I'll put it ingame. :D

So, a small update. Didn't really change much but smoothing and one case of bad triangulation (still making in maya, but I am working some in max).

http://img102.imageshack.us/img102/2939/footbumpfe1.jpg

As mostly usual, it's extruded and pinched and stretched from a single cube :3

And about those errors and extra polygons here and there, those will be cleaned up. I just wanted to show this in its near-finished state. Smaller details will be textured in, such as the blade engravings and any bolts or screws.

Made with love in Wings 3D <3

[DaneO'Roo]

Looks like someones getting awesome at modelling :awesome:

[ExAm]

y thank u miester <3

Easy for me to say Ross.

Owai-:haw:

[Tweek]

I SEE LOTS OF ERRORS ON THAER

just saying,

[n00b1n8R]

Looks good :)

[Sever]

Its Hammer Time!

Can't touch this!

[ExAm]

Someone else will be skinning it, or UVW-ing for me to skin, but it will be skinned. I need to learn how to UVW...

[Tweek]

good time to learn then. don't have someone else do it.

the only time i let someone else UV my shit is when i simple cba.
if something is really complex, i love to do it myself, makes you get better at it.

[ExAm]

I've tried out Wings's unwrapping tool before, but it was so damn confusing and the tutorials I found weren't any help. No one else I know knows how to use Wings, let alone the unwrapper. I might get around to trying it out again when I get some more information on how it's supposed to work and how I'm supposed to know where to texture what. For now, I cba.

*blows up a reference and makes a silhouette* Click for scaled image, mind you.

Note the blade is longer, more accute at the tip, and the bottom lip of the front edge is not round, bulbous, or malformed.
Also, the handle grip balloons subtlely around the top and the handguard seems to taper inward a bit.

[Leiukemia]

Yeah, I noticed some of that about half way through colouring the referance. I never even looked at a perspective shot like you have, just some 90X90 third or fourth picture I saw on google. Best thing about it not being for someone else is artistic liscence. Which is why I chose a differant texture/colour scheme too.

[Dr Jaul]

something to maybe make the brutes better, the brutes have hair "sprites" on places like their elbows, cheeks, chins, forearms, pecs... mostly places that have a big contour or an angle where the hair doesnt lie flat against their body.

[ExAm]

Planes with a masked texture, I think.

[Roostervier]

So, I actually decided to try and start the design of a forerunner-esque texture...

http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/152/designcritho9.jpg

Was trying to wait for Dano to get online, but I have to go and I'd like crit from everyone else. Also, it's a bit cluttered. =p

[edit] Also, I now regret making it 512^ instead of 1024^. :X

[edit] Also, this is before I cleaned up all the little spots where the lines don't connect.

[LlamaMaster]

Nice. I see some spots I don't like, but I don't feel like pointing them out right now. >.> Also, can you shade it so we know the levels?

[madworkz]

These screenies Suck, but it shows what was possiable with 45 minutes of messing around with unreal 3 editor. AND NO, i have never touched any of the unreal editors befor. Its just that simple.

unreal 3 editor = leetsause. just exported mesh as .ASE and imported into unreal. no need to follow seal world rules as you can asign per-poly collison to mesh :0. and you can drop into your map and play on the fly without compiling. lol took only 45 minutes to play around with it to fall in love. talk about a artist dream come true.

those of you looking to use next-gen engine for design, get GoW or unreal 3.

http://www.madworkzstudio.com/halo/canyonwip.jpg

[LlamaMaster]

45 minutes? Damn! It's not Halo, but still....awesome. ALso, arn't you the guy that made that ATV? Yoyocast needs you. (I bet you know that already though)

Edit: WOOT! THREE BARS!!!

[Roostervier]

Nice to see you again madworkz! Where have you been?

Also, :awesome:. I need to get GoW PC or something with unreal editor soon.

[DaneO'Roo]

Yeah, thats pretty fucking awesome :D

See Tweek, told you that you don't need to do the bsp brush thing :<

[DaneO'Roo]

Nice to see you again madworkz! Where have you been?

Also, :awesome:. I need to get GoW PC or something with unreal editor soon.

Get UT3, cause it's more awesome than gow :<

[Rob Oplawar]

yeah, crap, i'm gonna have to add ut3 to the ever growing list of games I need to buy... but after I finish with bce.

but it's weird to see what's-his-name in what's clearly a Halo themed map, lol. I wish it could always be like this- GoW and Halo happily living together, but instead we've got rabid fanbois at each others' throats. sigh...

[DaneO'Roo]

No we don't :/

There are Half Life v Halo fights (:<), but no Halo v UT3 or GOW fights. We all know how dumb that argument would be.

[legionaire45]

Marcus Pheonix looks reeeeeeally weird in a bright happy environment like that xD.

It's pretty amazing what you can do with Unreal 3. Hell, I'll probably give both this and CryEngine 2's editor a shot and see which is better. I want to start making some maps now xD.

[ExAm]

It's Marcus Fenix, not Marcus Phoenix :P

[Rob Oplawar]

I don't know what dimension you're living in, Dano (oh right, upsidedownia, that makes sense i guess), but when GoW came out when I was living in the dorms, there was a massive schism between GoW players and Halo players, and I was caught in the crossfire. It was sad.

[n00b1n8R]

I don't suppose this means that yoyorast gets to use his ATV?

I am also working on the halo 3 Long Sword, which is looking awesome. The problem will be texturing it. And getting the engine sounds because i dont think you can hear them in halo 3. I am using a reference of were the H3 long sword crashes into the sand on "The Ark", because you can see it in the theater and go all around it even though it is not a vehicle, it has got no collision and is just animated scenery or something like that.

Errors i know but here is what i have done so far, I have followed bungies model all the way because you can see where each edge ends if you angle the camera correctly, so you can see where the faces are. And i know there is no detail in it, there is no detail in bungies model at all, its all bump maps, im going have to try and texture it well to make it look good. I also may need to make insides.

[Roostervier]

Hunter, none of your models are good tbh. :X

All you did was make the outline, extrude, and copy the faces from the other side to the other. The longsword doesn't look like you are following the reference.

Also, extruded and beveled cylinder != scope.

[Chewy Gumball]

...
Also, extruded and beveled cylinder != scope.

I do believe you can make a pretty darn good scope with just extrude and bevel on a cylinder. He just didn't.

[FireDragon04]

Bit of a back log reply, but Madworks the UT3 Engine makes that look even more amazing :lol:

I've played GOW on my friends PC, its pretty damn good, considering it was on the 360.

I'll have to pick it up...or mb not, i might just still get UT3 it's self next month and map for that...hmmm.

Anyway good work.

We are doing an investigation It's in progress.

Also, how about an interior instead :downs:

Fixed an error.

[Bad Waffle]

i see what you fixed, much better.

[Roostervier]

Yes, it is better. That non planar was ugly. D:

Anyway, it looks like the door near the front only leads out the opposite way. If this is the case, I suggest making another doorway into a/the (depending if this is even established) room under the opening at the top. It seems to serve little purpose but for a small amount of cover if it just leads out the other way.

[Anton]

It could possibly lead to a small teleporter? But probably not.:)

It will. I haven't done the interior yet, I was just wondering what people thought of the exterior.

[Chewy Gumball]

We was not be talking about attaching a scope to a gun now was we?:downs:

[Con]

Mass, I see you've taken inspiration from h3's control room exterior, so why not add another level?


http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/7944/14556607qj7.jpg

Note the weapon placements on top of the base and inside the ramp room, also the red highlighted area where theres some grossies.

edit: flag should be inside that room you can jump down into from the roof, while players should spawn on top.

[Mass]

I'VE BEEN EXPOSED.

I was thinking about it just before I read that post, actually, and I'm thinking it will be like that but almost completely buried and mostly for visuals. it'll be good looking if it resembles the idea I have in my head.

E: I see your edit and raise you an "I agree."

[Con]

if it's half buried, that's a good way to cover up one or two of the many entrances into the place too.

[Mass]

These are getting worse and worse, I think I'm gonna do something like this:
http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o97/nate-the-great_photos/buried.jpg

[Huero]

I think it's missing variation on the floor upstairs.
Oh, and that front part with the bars; it looks like shit, sorry D:

[n00b1n8R]

well that's a first.
I don't like it mass, the "nose" is just too freaking long and dull.

perhaps if it had a steeper angle and second angle (like on forruner pipes) I'd like it better, but as it is It's a rare dose of Mass Brand™ do-not-want.

[n00b1n8R]

actually, it reminds me of a wine bottle :S

looks OK.

i don't like how it's so stretched though.
it feels like it's only a small part of a larger structure.

make bug structure connected to it.
GOGO

[n00b1n8R]

or build into canyon wall with other protrusions for snipers/inacessible higher up.

It looks abit better, but still it's too long IMO :|

I'm back from my vacation to Florida!
I took your guys' advice and started over from scratch. I gathered more reference pics, and now I have the legs to my All Terrain Armored Transport mostly finished:
http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa115/Jay2645/AT-AT4.jpg
Please don't hurt me...
Do the legs look any better this time? I tried my best to scale everything as well as I can. Here's a comparison of the AT-AT and MC:
http://i203.photobucket.com/albums/aa115/Jay2645/AT-AT5.jpg

Yes, the rear of the legs do need work, the back isn't as pretty as the front, that's why they are MOSTLY finished. You won't see the back of the top circles on the legs, those are going to be covered up by the drive shaft.

Any comments?

That extrusion in the "main" flat wall thing, it shouldn't follow the exact shape again. Look at the forerunner textures I sent you to see what I mean.

Otherwise, HOT.


Also mad, your atv's specular needs serious work, but it's looking great. Needs to be more dull overall, but more contrasted.

[Rob Oplawar]

well disaster, you didn't get totally flamed. i really hope you take the crit and work on it some, cause the fact that ppl didn't say "it sux you sux gtfo" says to me that you've got potential.

Disaster get the fuck out you shit person you.

[Disaster]

snaf..can you tell me where the proportions are wrong so i can fix it up. and also plz tell me whats wrong with it..not just: it sucks

[Hurrvish]

You should get multiple references for that Uzi.

[SnaFuBAR]

things that caught my eye specifically are the dodgy barrel size, weapon width, and sights. Find high res images of the uzi so that you can see the details better, too.

[Disaster]

lol i did get hi res pics..i had multiple ones too..oh yeah its supposed to be an uzi micro not a regular one. its thick the barrel is somewhat small and the sights are that big.. see heres the reference that i specificaly used in max to move the verts and edges

http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/5959/0401131026301078uzipistwt9.jpg

[Roostervier]

I can already tell you were way off on following your references...

[Disaster]

how?..i just didnt put that clip holder at bottom and i made the clip a bit longer so it would actually look like an uzi?

[Roostervier]

Yes, that. Plus, you just didn't follow the proportions.

e: Also, it must not look like an uzi, because what you modified was what a real one looked like. Good going. :downs:

[Disaster]

lol ok ill make clip smaller..and the proportions are right let me show you the reference i followed for thickness

http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/5596/uzipistolvl5.gif

[Roostervier]

Yes, now show the uzi at that angle for a decent comparison.

[Bastinka]

You must have bad eyesight, also look at the trigger-guard thing. It's thin, yours is thick and ugly. Thats one thing I can notice.

[Disaster]

k here it is
http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/3448/uziproofne0.png

[Bastinka]

Bright and hard to make out details.. If there are any details to begin with.

[Disaster]

k here it is fixed and i know i need to smooth it
http://img105.imageshack.us/img105/2291/uziproofzt1.png

[Bastinka]

Fix the trigger guard to be thinner, and the back of the handle is rounded. More round then you have it. Look at the reference.

[Disaster]

thank you for helping me + rep im fixing those now

EDIT: ok i did smoothing really fast and fixed the proportions that you told me if you still see errors then tell me

http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/1351/uzismootheddl1.png

It's very inaccurate. Make sure to get more references. Would you like to see pics mine to get a better idea of how it should look? How much detail should be implemented. Dont rely detail on the skin. Looks like box modeling with extrudes and bevels which is the extremely wrong way to model guns. Correct me if im wrong.

Seriously, I already regard what Tweek has to say very highly, when you repeat it it just seems to get to be a worse idea.

He's usually right and if he's already said do you honestly think anyone cares that you agree?

You even squeezed out more use of "gay" ffs.

Tweek is being blunt, you're being an asshat.

[FRain]

What? I can't post my own FUCKING opinion on something, just because it might be a restate of what somebody else said?


Grow the fuck up, learn that people all have their own opinions, some people the same, some people different.

I hadn't seen Tweek's post until after I posted, but you know what? It seems to be that if I AGREE with ANYTHING it seems to be me sucking up to them and wanting to kiss their ass, well guess what.

Game over.

cracks aside, i still say the underside of the awning is too flat. it needs some horizontal i-beams supporting it or something. Also, the 45 degree slop that the crack is in still seems very much more forerunner than human to me.

edit: @fr: wow dude chill out. Man, what is it about the internet that makes everybody take everything the wrong way?

Who bets my rep (not the bars) will go in a ditch again by the end of today?

[Rob Oplawar]

keep making posts like that in the gallery thread and it will


@Mass: It occurred to me that it needs lights and security cameras and speakers and other random things placed on the walls, but those are best done with scenery. Hmm, you should play through the second level of Halo 3, I forget what it's called. Use that as inspiration.

Hey guys, guess what? instead of yelling at eachother like pansies, you could have read the rules and then taken correct action (but, warning is all we can do)

Lets look at the rulebook, eh? heres a link for the lazies--http://www.h2vista.net/forums/announcement.php?f=2



FLAMES VS. CRITIQUE


A flame is a verbal attack. Flames are made to insult a user, and are made with absolutely no backing to them. The aim of a flame is to get under someone's skin by just saying something as simple as "you're gay."

Now, in all actuality--massacres model isn't god awful but it isn't the best and he knows it, because its a ONLY A MODEL STUDY. he wants crit, and what tweek (and kenney, even) have done are what massacre asked for. So, next time, remember why we have a warning system instead of just yelling at the person :v

Trying to get the tone right for human structures, haven't done any in quite a while.

I actually quite like the supporting beams on the outside and the little walkway you have in there. The crack looks like a slash more than some sort of explosives damage. Try to rework that a little bit. The bunker you have on the left is a bit plain looking, but I like the styling of the rest.

I think it looks awesome.

You know i see it as a shame when people just use a skylight. Check out my rendering tutorial and see if it works for you, if it doesnt try out Lieuks.

Can you put skylights at an angle?

[Tweek]

no, you angle the camera.

it's not a directed light at all, it's global illumination.
and then some camera angle shit.

i dunno why it works the way it does, i just know how it works.
just adding an omni, or spot will make a huge difference though

If that's for Halo, the battle damage is really unnecessary, there's no battle damage in any Halo multiplayer map except chillout
