Hey guys, so after making entities for a while now, i decided i should try my hand at making a weapon, for my game: Lost Contact Chapter 1.

Here is what i got so far, optimization will come soon.

Base Stock weapon (Will have different configurations ingame)



(Note: It looks like the DC-17m from Star Wars Republic Commando, i am basing the model off of that only adding in my own configurations, model wise.)

Will post possibly a update to the model tomorrow when i get back from school.

Edit: it looks blockish, especially the handle. Better add some bevel to it.

Bump...

New model, its a sci fi wall mounted storage container, i modeled the pipes in a way that i can easily change the location, which will be nice for variety.



Any crit for the two model pictures?

Edit: Textured a Static Version, need to complete the door then get it FPSC ready. (Made a Illumination map for it and it looks really nice with it on)



Update: Finished texturing the Static version, will move on to making the Dynamic one with the door that can open to reveal items inside

The texture is horrible. The model is okay. Needs ALOT more detail in the texture then a simple base fill and some black splotches. The model is good but needs some work, i would suggest giving more shape to the nose, and add some smoothing groups.

I would suggest looking at alot of texturing tutorials.
Layers,Brushes(thousands online for free), and opacity are your friend.

A good brush can determine the quality of the texture.

Alright i will work on the texture, the models here are meant for FPSC, so im used to just modeling low poly ish models.

FYI i take it you mean the Revenant texture, if so then yes i agree.

even with FPSC you are cutting it short. And most the time its not about conserving polygons, its about placement. Ive seen inexperienced modelers (me at too yes i know) have too many polys that dont add detail (tessellation effect). I.e. you have a flat plane that has 75x75 segments, which, when thinking of shadows and rendering, isnt a bad idea, but when you do it in-game, it is useless.

i have to agree with the texture. I cant remember what the thread was.... (I think it was a sci fi chaingun??? Ill look here in a minute.) but someone posted a link to a great metal texure tutorial... ill look it up for you... what you have going on looks like stone.\

edit:
Quote: "

camo studios

looks nothing like metal, looks like stone, and you can blame the "dont worry it'll look good with normal and spec" but it wont look good then if it doesn't look good now, and it doesn't.

http://cg.tutsplus.com/articles/news/how-to-hand-paint-convincing-metal-textures/ enjoy that tutorial, learn something, have fun "

I got this in FPSC and this happened, my textures do not have anything that is black which would cause the texture to have the black part see though.

Bump. Redesigned my very first PDA, suppose to be a very simple model with a funny image, that image should be self explanatory in this render of it. Edit: should i make another variant but have a cracked screen and the image on the screen fuzzy around some parts?



Edit2: going to edit the texture a bit and release v1 and v2 of my PDA for free

Thanks, I am actually in the process of getting this rigged to bones for ease of animating this.

I plan to try to do a playable level with a bunch of custom portal stuff.

You never know, afterwards I may release everything, or use it for a personal project.

Edit: now that I think of it, I should texture first so when I rig it I can check for deformities.

Finished model: Robot version 2

This is meant to be turned into separate png images for a animated image for a 2d game i am making.



I feel good about it, now to texture it. Also its not suppose to be a ripoff of one of those portal 2 co op characters

Bump.

I need help, i have been making this door model for my entry for defy the odds compo for FPSC X9. Would anybody be kind enough to make this door FPSC ready cause i have no clue

What does it look like? Something like this...



And should open up but the circle parts should not touch the frame.

What do you get in return? Well, if you are a FPSC X9/X10 user that needs a door similar to this, go ahead and use it.

Thanks guys.

Edit: I realize the frame texture is Terrible, i know this and i have put it on my list of things to redo.
