Decided to model some old building for practice

EDIT:Shoot, didn't get my window sizes right. Will fix that

Cool lightsabers are cool.
1. 6/8 sided rotated planes or
2. An actually modelled mesh with specular?
I vote 1.

I'm going to say 1. The model would look megashitty.

You'll need more planes than that unless you want it to look absolutely horrible from various angles.

Nope, it's actually looking perfect ingame. The only angle it looks horribad at is directly over it, since then your looking parallel to the direction the planes are going.

Put a cross-sectional circular plane partway down, I guess. vOv

[k9colin]

Yeah I figured that would happen. If only CE had Halo 3's lighting - if you could get something as near as awesome as the H3 sword's looks, i think you would have gotten a pretty decent saber with that.

[Rentafence]

It already is pretty decent, sir. Shouldn't be too much of a problem though, you're rarely going to be looking straight down on it, if ever.

Maybe I'll do that.

Sorry if it sounded like I was implying that your saber sucked, it doesn't. Just simply saying a modelled saber with the H3 sword's effects and lighting would look kickass - your saber is still aight.

[jngrow]

Fun. Seeing this actually made me happy.

20 minutes or so, I don't know where I'm going to go with it.
