that would be a 1024X1024. Nope I am not doing that.

I offered my models to those asshats who were doing the gundam universe mod for quake3. They never took me up on it.

I have thought about doing a fps but I am more fond of action shooters. I am working on something related to that but it won't come until some time after 1.3.

They're already at sufficient quality, too.

Most - epic - model - ever!

That's what I mean when I say "personality" - I mean, it's a badass bear in a suit of armour: how much more attitude do you want :mrgreen:

Looks good, could make a thud replacement as well. The legs need some work. Seems most of the unit is blocky and angular, but your legs are cylindrical and dont really fit with the rest of the model.


Also, you're using a few too many polys on the barrels. 6 or 8 sided cylinders work fine.

On the other hand, why? What are they adding?

Polycount, like texture space, should add something to the model.

I don't think I posted this, as it is only my texture, maackey's model, and only a rush job on my part, but...

Image

The unit itself will never be seen anywhere near the sizes I included in the shot to show detail. As a result, I only used a 256x256 texture. Maackey provided it with four sided legs... why, because at that zoom it won't ever matter.

You can go as wild with poly and texture space as you want, but should you? Complexity should serve a function, if you can achieve the same effect with a simpler design then the simple design is the most efficient for the situation.

That said, I do like the design of the model, reminds me strongly of the Thud merged with the Peewee.

I'd go the other way - smooth out the torso. It's an amphibious unit, so I'd go for round-edges to reduce friction.
