also hurry up and release it dude >_<

Don't forget all of those minor textures, they can amount to a lot

[DaneO'Roo]

oh yeah, thanks mass :)

[Sel]

You dont mind if I steal myself that forerunner one do you :downs:

[HDoan]

Or that cliff detail map or what ever?

Wow that's a REALLY old model, I remember seeing that last summer...

[DaneO'Roo]

Meh, you can go ahead, but the combination of fake lighting plus a low res texture won't make it look very good ingame. Be my guest.

Updated by the way :)

[PenGuin1362]

I love your texture on my rifle ^_^ sexy stuff dane.

[Sel]

Whyd you that D:

And Ill try it, and see.

[LlamaMaster]

The last texture blows my mind. Also, I'm not going to stop bitching until you release that map. Those cliffs look so high poly, and so awesome. Wireframe?

[Mass]

So random people couldn't steal it :/

Holy shit. I love you.

Still up for the King Tiger?

[DaneO'Roo]

Sure as hell am, you might have to resend it though, seeing as it was on my old hard drive.

[rossmum]

Wait what, it's not done yet D:

That must've been my S-5 or something. I'll send that later if you still want to take a shot at that too.

[DaneO'Roo]

Sure.

Also, I'm learning to model in Max right now, and ok, I'm loving it. But I still think Maya has a much better workflow. I just think the poly tools in max own.

[LlamaMaster]

I nearly died when I read your post.

[Bodzilla]

so i take it you got lazy and decided to not worry about the tunnels hey.

[DaneO'Roo]

I didn't really know how to model them good back then. I do now though. Once I get comfortable modelling in max, I'll fix up the map. I already know ALOT of how I'm going to finish the map now :)

[Bodzilla]

more delays :smith:

[rossmum]

Hey, the longer we wait, the better the final product will be.

Dane, you should hurry up and get HL2. Then pick up a copy of Raising the Bar, and recreate some of the concept shit which Valve cut. Your art style is perfect for it.

[DaneO'Roo]

Eh, I'll get orange box after I get the bonus edition of UT3 (I need it for the unreal ed tutorials)

[DaneO'Roo]

I know it's dodgy in areas (non planars, bad smoothing, general shittyness etc) but I'm learnding ok >:[ This is my first model in max, from that Beretta 9000 tutorial on moddb, though I did the clip all by myself and didn't even watch that part of the tut, just took what I learned previously in the tutorial for it.

[Bad Waffle]

When I get home from college I'll post textureless and wireframe renders of the cliffs for you :)

I see some errors on that 9000, but you're going places, Dane.

[Aerowyn]

It's like a goatse landscape!

[rossmum]

THANKS FOR THAT MENTAL IMAGE.

:smithicide:

[legionaire45]

It's like a goatse landscape!
I don't see any hands, or wedding bands in that image.

Also, Beretta looks great Dane! Better then mine did (which I don't think I ever completed =P).

[Pooky]

Fuck you, I'll never be able to look at that map again >_<

:smithicide:

[DaneO'Roo]

lmao, left that hole in the middle of the terrain cause i had no idea at the time how to weld vertices xD

Oh sh.t, your sextures would look so awesome in a UT3 map!

idc if you steal them, they haven't been made to tile, and they're REALLY low res compared to the versions I have.

I'll get renders of them with normal maps. They look kewl.

You must be extremely lucky to find that many 4-leaf clovers.

[il Duce Primo]

I really like them... reminds me of Valhalla's terrain. Is the rock one underneath the grass one? Did you also make custom brushes on the grass pieces and the clovers?

[rossmum]

Hot.

[thehoodedsmack]

DaneO'Roo? Also, textures are nice.

[DaneO'Roo]

I really like them... reminds me of Valhalla's terrain. Is the rock one underneath the grass one? Did you also make custom brushes on the grass pieces and the clovers?

yeah, the rock one is the background layer of the grass one. Also, 4 leaf clovers aren't custom brush, I painted 1 myself and then repeated and what not. Grass blades took me fuckin ages.

[rossmum]

CUSTOM BRUSHES ARE FOR WIMPS

amirite

[DaneO'Roo]

u r rite.

But, they are handy, but only allowed when you make them yourself. I have no sympathy for people who do nothing but download brushes that people made from photographs, to turn a photo of a brick into a texture. Instafail.

I often make custom brushes for things like large detail, just to save time. I don't see the harm when I made them myself anyway.

[rossmum]

I have a shitload of blood ones which I don't actually use for blood. I use one of them occasionally when I want a broken streak to save myself time and effort, but that's it. Everything else I do is done with soft-edged, standard round brushes.

[Pooky]

You must be extremely lucky to find that many 4-leaf clovers.
:lol:

[Bodzilla]

make the grass one into a texture :<

[DaneO'Roo]

Durh, I have. I have a 1024x1024 tiling version of it.

[Bodzilla]

well thats much better :D

[ItsMeTerror]

Nice Dane, honestly it would be great for some tutorials on painting some terrain. Besides the usual with you.... The forerunner.... Well I think it all is great looking either way good job man your going somewhere big I can see it

[DaneO'Roo]

Forerunner stuff isn't, and never has been all I do. It's just the only thing anyone ever cares about.

[Pooky]

[Anton]

It def looks good ingame! Great Job Dano.

[Pooky]

Whats with that unskinned hand :S

[DaneO'Roo]

New first person arms.

[DaneO'Roo]

Working on new texture. Started this morning, it's now night time. i.e. Lots of time went into just designing, leaving it, coming back, doing a bit more, leaving it, doing a bit more etc. It worked in the end though. Still going to tweek this bump map before I start painting the diffuse. I'm going to record a video of me painting the diffuse and specular and such. Just to show a workflow for painting textures.

http://img516.imageshack.us/img516/1849/gypofloortilebumpprogtq5.jpg

Tiled it twice vertically to show both ends of the detail properly. It's going to be a corridor floor texture that only tiles in one direction. Also the original is 1024x1024.

[LlamaMaster]

It's so beautiful it makes me want to cry.

[thehoodedsmack]

It's so beautiful it makes me want to cry.

That's a damn lie and you know it.<:mad:> Though it does look fantastic, Dane. :)

[Hunter]

Are you a god Dano?

[TeeKup]

It looks very reminiscent of Cylon architecture, either that or neo-covenant.

[DaneO'Roo]

Is a what what?

Anyway, painted it:

http://img178.imageshack.us/img178/7435/asethfloortilerendercv7.jpg

I recorded the entire thing on video so I'm going to be uploading a pseudo tutorial later.

That was as much as I could do in an hour, but I'm going to further touch it up wih some more detail. I wanted this one to look a bit more clean though.

[LlamaMaster]

Looks kinda faded. I guess thats what you were going for though.

Edit: n/m

[TeeKup]

Cylons, the things from battlestar galactica. Neo-covenant is something I made up to descripe a new generation of covi architecter. Your's retains some of the traditional curves, but the color and other designs looks like it had some brute origin.

[Corndogman]

I really like it dane. the only part i dont like is the curved part that looks like its higher than the rest of it. where it tiles at top and bottom. it just looks odd to me.

[DaneO'Roo]

Purely personal preference in design. Thats one of my favorite parts.

[Anton]

Looks great Dano, tutorial you say? :awesome:

[DaneO'Roo]

Yep. Unedited, unsped up 1 hour long video of me painting the diffuse and specularity textures from start to finish. The only thing learned from the tutorial really, will be workflow.

[Anton]

Workflow is important...so...yay; and trust me, anything to do with painting will help me.

[Bodzilla]

thats it?

what a piece of texture >:U
looking good dude.

[Hunter]

OMG! Lol. It looks amazing.

I want to learn texturing once I'm out of school. Need to concentrate on my GCSE's first Lol.

[Con]

Good, but don't make it a floor texture please :( If it's going to be on the floor, put it under some glass or something. Floors are supposed to be flat, and I have a hard time seeing someone walking over that surface. It would make a better ceiling above a corridor, especially with those lights in it.

[SgtBotley]

OMFG D4no, wtf is wrong with you, you're like a machine...

your textures are so pristine.

im making a custom map atm and im making everything from scratch ( to feed the ethos of custom) and my custom textures look like shite compared to yours wtf gives?

(pm uber tutorialage please, i need your wisdom)

[DaneO'Roo]

Good, but don't make it a floor texture please :( If it's going to be on the floor, put it under some glass or something. Floors are supposed to be flat, and I have a hard time seeing someone walking over that surface. It would make a better ceiling above a corridor, especially with those lights in it.

I get what ya mean. I think I just might make it a ceiling, and just make something a lot more basic for the floor, and less height varied.

:)

*EDIT* 30 minutes till video finishes uploading :awesome:

Also, I made an emo version for you emos out there.

http://img183.imageshack.us/img183/976/asethfloortilealternateay6.jpg

[Hunter]

Can you please stop being a texture god. Lol. o.j.

You should put these textures in a map. And get Sunny help you with some awesome lighting. It would look amazing.

[Con]

emo version needs more cuts

[SgtBotley]

wtf is up with orange juice?

anyways: that texture is awsomes

Edit : What is Aseth?

[DaneO'Roo]

It is nothing go back to sleep :X


Also made a new topic in the The Studio with the video :)

[Corndogman]

I like the Emo version better, probably because of the orange lights, they make it look awesome.

[DaneO'Roo]

Today I made a face in 3d class, took mine alot further though. Everyone else only managed to do the eyes and the nose, I even went with a bit of poly sculpting.

This is done in blender btw.

http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/5939/faceqz3.jpg

Yes I'm fully aware it looks like an alien in a human disguise. :fail:

[SgtBotley]

ha, looks good... has the facial features of a butler.

blender for the fail.

[DaneO'Roo]

I agree.

Although I am tolerating it now.

[Limited]

Have you used Zbrush?

[DaneO'Roo]

Nope, but I don't like zbrush anyway. I tried mudbox, like that alot better. Zbrush is way too gimicky with the user interface to me.

[LlamaMaster]

Nope, but I don't like zbrush anyway. I tried mudbox, like that alot better. Zbrush is way too gimicky with the user interface to me.
Yah, I thought that about the UI first too. It's kinda meh at first, but zbrush is the superior program. (although I hear mudbox is a lot easier)

[DaneO'Roo]

Mudbox does exactly the same shit. Seriously. The only difference being that zbrush comes with all those stock shaders and textures and other things I personally wouldn't be using anyway.

[killer9856]

i love the cliff texture in that one map


i just want to know how to make those so badly!

great job dano

[TeeKup]

I'm curious to see what you have in store for that wraith.

[Tweek]

i think it's missing a piece.

[killer9856]

I like the bottom.

[Masterz1337]

i think it's missing a piece.
It's been designed so we can attach different weapons, we have 2 right now, but we can always add more in case we find a new gameplay void we have to fill.

[DaneO'Roo]

i think it's missing a piece.
NO MISTR WHAD DEE FORK ITS PERFECT YOUR JUST STUPID AND NOT NICE BAWWWWWW

Yes, I'm still unwrapping the two guns for the back people. Will do want when done.

[Dole]

I'm curious to see what you have in store for that wraith.

http://www.pcgameshots.com/img/101/md/wraiths.JPG

These were modeled quite a while back, they should be finally skinned later this week. The way we designed them, it's real easy to make a new varient should we find a need to fill a void in gameplay. The Red one is an anti-air wraith, but it does not rire fuel rods, the guns are either going to be (CMT)shade or spectre style plasma.From the Halomaps forum.

[BobtheGreatII]

Sexy, really like the look of the wraith.

[Con]

too many lights on the bottom if you ask me, but you won't be looking at the bottom anyway. I would also change that crystallize or w/e pattern to a hexagon pattern, or at least something a bit more uniform.

[rossmum]

I don't think the bottom really needs that much work. Looks nice.

[Hunter]

:O

I wanna learn to texture/skin like that!

I was waiting for someone to make a Halo 3 styled Wraith Lol.

Looks like the best piece of work posted on here for AGES!!

[Sel]

They may not see the underside often, but its still possible to see. Who knows, maybe masterz can make it lighter so you can easily flip it with a heavy weapon.

Well, then all the more reason to remove some of the lights.

[DaneO'Roo]

Update on stuff:

My brother Rory may be getting me a gfx tablet for my birthday, hes in Fransisco in america land.

If so, expect much better work from me after May the 30th :V

[Con]

What kind?

[DaneO'Roo]

Dunno, i told him to get an intuous or better, but not a bamboo. He has alot of money to throw around at the moment, so I'm hoping for something really mega sexy, but eh, he could get me a t shirt for all I care. I didn't ask him btw, he asked me.

I'm doing fine with mouse, but I can't really do some things as easy as I'd like to. I have to pen tool and line tool everything, where if I had a tablet, I'd be doing most intricate details by hand. Plus I'd to be abtle to actually do concept stuff on the PC instead of in my art pad all the time.

[rossmum]

Dane, could you ask him if he can pick me one up as well? I'll settle for just about anything right now, my mouse is really shitting me :|

It's a halo 3 styled wraith? I'm pretty confused, aside from the "scales" it looks like a H2 wraith to me.

[Hunter]

I dunno. Lookd Halo 3 styled to me because of the resolution of the texture probobly and the render. I dunno. Looks good amazing anyway.

Nice work, parts of the AR I dont like, look too bumpy, like a piece of concrete. Mainly the very back part and the like "handle" under the front. Still amazing though...

[Pooky]

So when do we actually get to play with it D:

Dano I think I love you....

When SPV2 comes out.

[NuggetWarmer]

It looks great in-game.

[SuperSunny]

Beautiful dude, I'm actually trying to judge and find any errors but I can't, it's incredible.

[DaneO'Roo]

Hell, you guys are half the reason I've gotten to the stage I'm at now. If everyone told me everything looked perfect every single time, I'd be about 1 year behind what i am right now.

You know I love you guys.

[Patrickssj6]

I sometimes love you too...especially with those skins :awesome:

[Corndogman]

Oshits your bday is the 30th? Mine be 29th :awesome:

Way better than bungies.

Extremly good work. You should really get a job with this.

DAMN, that is sexy. I'm serious, I about cried a little. You have something many people long for, I'm glad you are putting it to great use. Good Job Dane. I'll try to see if I can point out anything I see wrong, so you can improve. Though I might not be much help.

Thanks to Teh Lag for the awesome amazing model and UV mapping.

The only thing that bothers me is the are that looks like crosswire. I dunno why but its bugging me. The rest of it is beautiful.

[rossmum]

Yeah, now you mention it, might be an idea to make it solid around the trigger area (or where the trigger would be on a human weapon, at any rate; suppose that thing would have a touchpad or something).

[Corndogman]

Yeah, that metal crosswire looking part was the first thing i noticed, its just doesn't look like it fits very well imo. I think i a solid material would look a bit better.

[Hotrod]

Wow, that's a beautiful Carbine, quality work there. Will this be used in any projects?

[Disaster]

I actually like the metal crosswire.

[DaneO'Roo]

crosswires?

nah, it's a diamond imprint, exact same as on halo 3's. I just fixed mine though, thanks for letting me know about that. Didn't realize I made all the diamonds way too small and too close together, so they looked like a chain mesh.

http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/3530/render3oo3.jpg

That better?

Ignore smoothing btw, not my problem.

[Masterz1337]

SPV2

[Hotrod]

Ah, so there will be a Covenant Carbine in SPv2? Well, I'm glad that it's going to be one that looks this great.

[Syuusuke]

Question is, will it look that good in SPV2?

[DaneO'Roo]

does the AR look good?

It's not a question of good.

It will not look as good as those renders, but it WILL look as best as it can in CE.

Hunt down Teh Lag to give him your + rep for the awesome model :)

[Pooky]

Whoa...

I've always liked the design of the SMG and I love that :D

And you :D






In a gay way :D

[Disaster]

I peed... 1 word OMG. That is amazing.

[Hotrod]

Why is it that some of CMT's models look better than Bungie's? That, is an amazing SMG, there's no other way to say it.

[DaneO'Roo]

Cause bungie could get away with using normal maps instead of geometry for alot of things, because of the engine. It's not that they're better, just a design choice. I've got no doubt in my mind bungies artists could model the pants off everyone with some nice looking hi res gun meshes :P

[Anton]

I really like the look of this SMG, in this image. (http://img67.imageshack.us/img67/4661/render1zv9.jpg)
The little metal piece up front, on the grip, looks untextured, but it is. Maybe it's just the lighting though.

That's the only thing that looks even slightly weird, to be honest, that doesn't even hurt it. Keep up the awesome textures. Love ya Dano.

Did you ever get a tablet?

[DaneO'Roo]

Getting one in a couple weeks :D

[Anton]

Same, but I don't think I could even use it near it's intended purpose but hey, a guy can practice can't he?

I guess you're right, but I still find that your guns looks so much nicer. The Carbine has the extruding parts at the back, which really adds to the gun, and the SMG has all those details that the Halo 3 ones don't. I'm not saying that Bungie couldn't make guns this nice, because they obviously could, and easily at that.

Even if it was, it's a view model so who cares :v:

[Anton]

Yeah, I'm just trying to point something out. Because that is what he wants us to do. It took me forever to find that :3

[Rob Oplawar]

Wow, that's some skill right there, to make me actually like the SMG. I hate that gun, srsly, but I have to say, the one you just textured looks amazing.

[DaneO'Roo]

I personally hate the gun as well, but hopefully the team will make it not suck this time around.

[Masterz1337]

me and DAno can debate the SMG for hours, but it's definatly one of my most favorite weapons to use.

[Anton]

In halo 3 the smg is definitely a great weapon, in h2 however I can't say the same.

Although, I still prefer the Carbine over any weapon.

What weapon is next? :)

[Chainsy]

It would be interesting to see how Dane would do on an energy sword.

[Anton]

Doan?...

K


If that's your name then, my bad. I always thought your name was actually Dane.

[rossmum]

It is Dane...?

[ICEE]

He probably just mixed up doan and dano.

[Chainsy]

Sorry, was talking to doan when typing that.

[HDoan]

Doan?...

[DaneO'Roo]

Ffs stop shitting my thread up with people fucking up my name.

It's Dane. My nickname is Dano (pronounced Dane O).

Ok?

[Syuusuke]

Ok danglingaroo.

That SMG reminded me of this:

http://members.aol.com/dasareus/images/smg_back.jpg

The same type of SMG =D

But I like yours...it looks a bit more "useful".

[Hotrod]

Yeah, for a second, I thought that your SMG would have the bullets showing in the case, but then I realized that the clip was just taken off.

Model by Teh Lag.

Also, for you nit pickers, I barely looked at the references for the wraith. I gave myself the challenge of designing it's textures my way on the fly, so not alot of it is the same, on purpose, ok?

Still tweaking it though right now.

[Bastinka]

I wish I had your skills :[

Looks very beautiful.

[Sever]

I really don't give a damn about the accuracies of what you're doing for CMT - It's too damn sexy to care! You've taken my favorite purple tank and made a piece of art out of it. Well done, Dane, well done.

[Anton]

Sex Tank :D I love you dane.


So where are we meeting to have our children again?

E : To put a rest to the smg, the orange parts weren't meant to be orange. They just were there to give the impression that there was something making contact with the magazine (which IS detached from the gun and floating in that render) - they're effectivley useless and don't have any real function. Also, though I can't remember if it was in this thread or not, the stock slides in perfectly, no intersection with the mag.

[Anton]

Also, your models are excellent lag. Good job. You two make a great team.

[DaneO'Roo]

^ This.

Seriously.

[Hunter]

Yeah. You do make a good team, Expert skinner and artist and an expert Modeller.

I wish you would texture my weapons Dane Lol. They would be awesome. Fuck the sniper of though, that needs serious optimizing, Lol.

[Joshflighter]

Wow, really well done.

[Bodzilla]

it's fucking shit

shit shit SHITWHORE

[Hotrod]

That's a very beautiful Wraith, just like everything else you've showed us so far. I can't wait to see how it looks in-game.

[ICEE]

I love all the little nicks and scratches in the paint job, but doesn't that sort of eliminate the theory that covenant metal is that dark purple color? It doesn't really make tactical sense to paint a tank purple. Regardless, the wraith looks amazing. Glowing blue bits, FTW. The model looks incredibly cool, and I'm glad that there's no gay halo 3 side turret. Rep for both of you for making a tank that looks like a frickin photograph.

Also, FUCK H3 ACCURACY. CREATIVITY FTW.

[Syuusuke]

photoshop, THE REFLECTIONS ARE ALL WRONG

Really, that looks so 'shopp'd, damn good dano.

[rossmum]

Holy shit, looks brilliant.

And stop complaining about the pink, it actually looks quite good on it.

[Hotrod]

Shit, that flood form looks nice. Though, I don't really see how it could walk around and stuff, since all it has are those weird-looking leg-wanna-bes.

[LlamaMaster]

I thought it floated or something.

[DaneO'Roo]

^

The limb like petal wing looking things flutter alternatively back and forward to each other to provide lift, while the large middle fin acts as a rudder.


It's supposed to be a severe mutation of the Engineer.

[Hotrod]

It's supposed to be a severe mutation of the Engineer.
So that explains why it's pink...

[Con]

Idk why it gets wings all of the sudden when it flew much more effortlessly with the gas sacs.

[TeeKup]

Because said gas sacs looked too much like a mans scrotum. :haw:

The pink makes sense now. Instead of repairing with absolute precision, it now dismembers with absolute precision. I can see this thing with hidden tentacle wrapped in its body, it will grab a host and proceed to penetrate the body with its tentacles, ripping open the chest and abdominal cavities.

[Chainsy]

Wait, I thought we were talking about a flood form, not women.
Also, I would recommend a darker color for the whole subject of it being pink.

[TeeKup]

Apparently you can't read.

[Chainsy]

Actually I did, its an infected form of an engineer, but they are not that pink. Also, why would the fins be the same color as the engineer, but the actual skin changes? When a form gets infected it turns green, so I would still suggest a green color, or red.

Tell that to Dane, he likes the pink and everyone else does. I'd prefer a dark red myself, but when I think about that, its the same as every flood being. Boring.

[Mass]

nice progress on the flying vagina

[DaneO'Roo]

Idk why it gets wings all of the sudden when it flew much more effortlessly with the gas sacs.

Because now, this mutated engineer is about as large as a flood juggernaut, and is basically a flying flood bomber, that drops eggs. The engineer was light so it didn't really need much force to keep it afloat, but this thing being like 8 times the size, needs some strong muscles to keeps it's fat body afloat.

Dunno, haven't really though the thing out much, just made it look cool :P

[Hotrod]

So, will it be used in-game at all, or is it just made for fun?

[DaneO'Roo]

Who knows :?

I do.

[Bodzilla]

thats it.

i'm raiding your house mutha fucker.

[Heathen]

Well the sensory stalks on the flood combat forms and shit have little pink feelers on the ends of them :/

[Hotrod]

Who knows :?

I do.
Wait, could this be the new enemy in SPv2 that's replacing the Flying Elites?

[Roostervier]

No, it isn't. Unless they decided to change the enemy that was replacing the Ranger Elites.

[Con]

Dane, it just seems like it would take much more energy to constantly flap its wings than it would to float around a little. Expanded gas sacs make more sense. It looks great though.

[Chainsy]

Seems to be more water orientated to me to be honest.

[Kalub]

I think a bubble* that farts, literally, around would be awesome....



*A bubble of fleshy flood like looking-i-ness-ticity with DOOM

Supposed to symbolize Heaven and Hell, for the UT3 mod Warm Gun (http://www.warmgun.ca)

Thanks to my new tablet I can draw and paint stuff better now, so I managed to come up with some funky engravings for the guns, like this one:

http://img165.imageshack.us/img165/5218/engravingsamplems9.jpg

I'm still working on Hell though. Going through a few different looks for it. The team seems to like the really rusted grimy look the best as a depiction of hell, so the final will most likely be the same as the one here, but with more blood, or glowing red engravings or something.

Expect some in game renders soon, If I'm allowed ;)

[Heathen]

Thats FUCKING rad.


Read about Warm Gun. Georgous.

[Rob Oplawar]

Dane, you never cease to amaze.

Who made that model? It's pretty cool.

[Hotrod]

Dane, you're one of the best people at making textures that I have ever seen. Those guns are beautiful, there's no other way to say it.

[Heathen]

there's no other way to say it.

Wrong.


I would fuck those guns.

[Roostervier]

The textures themselves look good, but I don't see how a gun that rusted and dirty could operate (the second one). Like I said though, the textures themselves I've got no problems with.

[Heathen]

Its not rusty....its grungy :D

[Hotrod]

Wrong.


I would fuck those guns.
That could go so, so wrong...
