Hi xilith117,

Sorry for no reply on my previous request. I've moved on from that project as I completed it and will be creating a second in an alternative language for my a level computing project. Currently I am working on an RTS style of game. The feel myself and my team currently have is that there will be three teams, an American team, a Russian team, and a rebel/terrorist team. We have decided that the American team will be a form of alliance, as will the Russian and rebel. I was wondering if you would be up for making three seperate team symbols. They're not your standard icon, but I thought I'd offer you a challenge if your up for one.

The style is modern-day, with a slight futuristic feel, say 20 years ahead of us currently. These images would be about 1000 by 1000, but not heavy detail. They would be scaled mostly, but having such a large size means no pixelation when resizing. If you could then make another image, this time an icon, for this game, which would be a combination of all three team emblems.

Here's a small bit of information on the images;

@A r e n a s

Ah! A challenge. I will begin work immediately and get back to you. I wouldnt mind doing other 2d (or 3d) work as well, I have always wanted to make an RTS and helping is the second best thing.

By the way, where are the terrorist team from?

Hey Xilith,
Could you please make a me a simple icon, much like the one from Ghost recon advanced warfighter, if you search GRAW logo in google you'll see what i mean.

My game is a shooter set slightly in the future, about 10 years infact, and is called echo1-4, it would be great if you could make me a icon that is quite like the GRAW one expect with E-14 in the centre, make it out of dark turquoise and aqua blues.

Thanks a lot,
Nathan

I'm already working with two 3d modellers, as I am aware that impressive, complete, models take time, but I would not turn down an offer of a third for the project. There are hundreds of units/buildings/scenery to construct, the more help the better! Any help will be credited, and for anyone else interested your welcome to 'audition' for a helping spot (we're looking for top notch material for this game).

Please send a couple of pictures of any models or imagery you think you could help out with to my email. I still have menu design to do (some time away as the engine is more important currently), there are plenty of models to as well.

They are a rebel fraction from a middle eastern country. Not quite advanced as Russia or America, but a fierce competitor in the war all the same.

@Nathan38
sounds good, you want it 32x32? if so it will have to be a little less detailed.


@A r e n a s
Before I would make anything i'd have to see a model from the game just to know what kind of polycount we're dealing with. RTS's are generally really low poly and I don't want to make a 50 poly building if everyone else is making 500 poly buildings. still workin' on the symbols.

Heres a link to the standard tank we are using. It has under 400 polys, and I've set a limit of 500 polys per model, and texture sizes of 512x512 per model. This may be cut down later depending on fps improvement of 256 over 512 - I'll cut this down myself.

Hope to hear from you soon!

nice work, whoever made that. it can be difficult making low poly models. the texture is the most important part. are the Russians soviet? I saw a hammer and sickle. oh, and do you mind 1024 X 1024 images? thanks.

Cheers, that was my first model, uv map and texture. The Russians are the Soviets. They are the largest part of the Soviet Union. 1024x1024 is fine, and I will scale down the texture myself later to use on the model.

great work. I think that the fact that the russians are soviet would have been something worth telling me before I made team symobols. lucky for me i haven't started the Russian one yet!and I was talking about the symbols not the textures when I said 1024 x 1024. I should have specified more.

If you can make all images, textures/icons at 1024x1024, that way, wherever the team logo or texture is used, there will be no detail loss as a result of pixilisation (if it needs to be scaled up).

A vector program is the proper program to be used for this style of graphic design. If xilith117 is creating them properly in Adobe Illustrator, or Inkscape which is a free vector program, then you do not have to worry about pixels.

Although, the image program I use is for bitmap images, and so it would cause pixelisation with enlargements.

Well, here are my rough drafts. I don't know a whole lot about your game but I hope these work. Its not a big deal if they don't. These preview images are only 512x512 but the full sized versions are 1024x1024.

First: the Russians. I like how this turned out.



Here is my one for the rebels:



And heres the U.S. I Dont really like how this one turned out, I'm probably going to restart from scratch.



Here are some ideas for some parts of the HUD, I just kind of threw these together because I was bored. If you want any part of it I can send it. I threw a couple units on there and a map in the little map frame so you could see what they look like in use. I like the health bar.



Well, thats all I got. I hope they are to your liking.

Looks good man keep up the good work. Im making a Scify horro game if you want to give it a go. I call it The 4th Chamber.(roman numerals on the 4).

I have been reluctant to ask simply because I know I could make it myself. But I said hey if your willing and got the time might as well see what you can come up with.

Thanks

It seems that most people have forgotten about this thread so I am killing it. I apologize to anyone who hasn't yet received their icons.

Thank you for your patience.
