Project relinquish stuff
Other stuffs
Ugly....
I would post more but I would have to look deeper in my models folder.
My favorites are the airplanes. There are a lot of simple things in those renders (like what I am assuming is a cafe scene with Master Chief) that could be more complex which would greatly add to the detail of the piece.
Still there are many things with each of these models you could improve a lot on. This is all good practice work.
Good stuff.
Please fix that bitch....
That map is fracture. Sadly, The lightmap UVs that halo CE generated for them screwed up the awesome lightmaps we were going to give it. So now it just has halo CE made lightmaps.
"screwed up the lightmaps"?
were you using aether to inject new lightmaps after running lightmaps in halo ce to generate uv's?
You have to use halo CE's generated Lightmaps always. Even when making the high res lightmaps. I got the lightmaps in fine. And most things looked perfect. But there were huge random streaks of black from the crappy UVs. I even tried making the background of the UV white and it turns out it was getting the black from the shadows of objects. It would be nice to have Custom UVs for the lightmaps to stop this limitation.
Also here is something to expect in halo CE as part of project relinquish.

Dont expect it to be as awesome when it in in Halo CE. Each and every few vertice is rigged to a bone. And this is only about a 30 world Unit quare. Ill find a way to optimise it for halo and still have a good amount of awesome.
Water?
Im pretty sure it is. Water like that in CE would be awesome.
What I would love to see that as is cloth, many people only pay attention to awesome models plus textures and forget visual things such as good steam, lightning and other things to create a specific mood, for example, imagine a abandoned military base with old wires hanging about and torn clothes with that applied silently blowing in the wind off those wires, do it correctly and you have a pretty eerie site.
Use the flag tag and make a bunch of unusable weapons.
Halo can only take 36 different nodes with 2 weights each, so plan wisely. If you get it ingame, i'd love to see.
:o

Low poly with normals.
Cool stuff. The top looks crunched, though.
Its a good start, leave him alone :P
Optimized it some more.
1000 verts 1,996 polies

looks better optimised

In b4 dano.
Your diffuse textures are really bland. Just seems like a few colors that were placed on a uvw. You need to add those details that will make the mesh stand out.

This should help you out a bit.
Your materials just seem to blend together. That would be a problem with the model. You need to find a way to make the seat stand out above the metal because right now just looks like recolored metal.
Spice up the red part a bit, add creases to where it attaches to metal, maybe add buttons to show that it is comfy and actually is clothe padding.
Really? I swear I've been able to compile a model with 41 bones before.Quote:

In after Dano.
Here is a little something I whipped up.
http://img174.imageshack.us/img174/6986/helmetws5.jpg
Thats hideous.
Why would I wanna wear a lavalamp?
I kinda dig the rounded robotic look to that.
I like plane most it looks best out of all, chair is hideous, and that helmet idk?
FFS. Indents in visor ftl.
the previous one was better.
should be called the Pikiman Helm
Hunter, do you ever spend more than a few days on any project?
Eh. You got me dead confused then Timo, you can't call him Hunter, I am Hunter :) He is Dee or Deehunter, stealing my name :(
We call him DEElekgolo now.
I am Dee Hunter and you are Dee prey :haw:
Anyways...
That helmet belongs in Walle, not halo.
http://img520.imageshack.us/img520/3030/helmetdu5.jpg
I'm done with this. Too many people dont like it.

Current wip.
Why is the shirt clipping his chest?
yea. Small error i saw. Its fixed.
http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/1766/mankn3.jpg
Looks nice dee.
Finished hand-optimizing it.
5,976 Polies
5,966 Verts
does look nice.
Some nice poly workflow there. Your going to add more detail right?
:o
you n' your fuckin rips. LAWL
THOSE FUCKERS PISSED ME OFF. Really good render though.Quote:

You need to remember alot of people here really often don't know what they're talking about (not talking about any one in particular), or will only give you praise when they see stuff they like, and what people like on this forum isn't exactly what everyone else might like too.
Basically if it doesnt look haloish... expect to recieve more criticism.
Also the soldier with the vest is win, altho where it goes from vest to skin im assuming might need more definition, im not sure though.
is that supposed to be some sort of optical illusion?
Haha, you can see it both ways.
I think he is showing how the particle animation looks? :o
YO DAWG! I MADE JOO SOME BRIX!
http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/4615/brixzmq1.jpg
Actually. It is spinning in only 1 way.
Yeah, and the depth kinda kills any possibility of the contrary.
Looks good, by the way.

Preview of a sky for a map.
Noice. Looks just like the one from Sandbox.
Except Sandbox has areas of the Ark on it :V
Except that this isn't sandbox.
Except the sky is still awesome :VQuote:

Flood calcium deposit.
That skin is boring, and it will not look any good in halo, give it more veins and slime and overall texture.
Add more detail to your sculpt. At the moment it's not right to call it one.
your sculpts are severely lacking depth.
if this is halo 1 it don't need a high poly unless you plan on making that bsp...
I make normal maps for all my assets. I dont plan on sticking with halo 1 forever.
I don't know why you're bothering with making normal maps and sculpting in zbrush or mudbox or whatever. You're wasting your time. Your high res meshes are terrible. Everything you've done in zbrush/mudbox has amounted to surface scratching.
not to the eye.Quote:

Coo.
What do you use to gauge the depth of something?Quote:

It looks like you added that window glass filter, and erased a couple of lines.
What?
You should also either give us a wireframe, or tell us how many tris or polies are in the low poly model if you want to do this properly.
I supplied wireframe. Polycount is 1,152 polies 578 verts.
For one, there appears to be a slight angle to the render. It's clear that it is rotating around from right to the front to the left. Also, the particles in front kill it. And yes, I do see depth, and I'll only accept that I'm crazy if DEEHunter says it's an orthoraphic projection.Quote:

Hey Dee, let me have a crack at that skin. Just for practice.
pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
what exactly is it suppose to be?
where'd you get the texture and what the hell is that supposed to be?
You still don't get how halo skies are done do you?Quote:

Just let Dee get upto his own devices and enjoy the 'luls'
I'm trying to help him, if he would go back and read what more experienced people have said, the sky would probably be amazing.
Go back and read that more experienced people said? I just posted it an advancebo said that it looks like its from sandbox. Then we just moved on to the flood calcium deposit I made. There was no crit made to that in the past. That sky was originally for a ambient cubemap pack I was planning on making.
Then why did you specifically say it was a sky for a map, and not a cubemap wip?Quote:

It was a preview render for presentation.
If there are stray verts, it will make your assumption inaccurate. Use your head.Quote:
