CORE Banisher+1 model selection Poll

Nanolathe reloading hello?

[Gota]

I think a cubicle system would look much more pwn....
and make it more prolonged....must all units have a square base?
Not only is it sucker it also makes units harder to identify..see EE for examples of the fail of making same chasis to many units.

[Neddie]

I have no problem distinguishing between units in E&E and the URC units look great to the eye and in screenshots. No need to bring your opinion to an entirely different discussion, Yan.

I think nanolathe reload is fine, I design for it in mind usually. That said, reload from space would be hilarious.

[MR.D]

Since it looks like the Minotaur is winning by a strong lead so far, I'm going to work on refining it a bit and put up a final render of it, then start unwrapping it for textures.

rename minotaur to duck

haha i selected number 4 on comedy value, and i like it

it really looks like a duck

[MR.D]

I have the model refined a bit more, reduced the "duck" look, made some of the suggested changes, and here is the final model as it will be when I start putting texture to it.

I still want to do a little optimization to a few parts of the model to keep it at 1200 triangles or better, then I will start doing the texture work on our new Banisher model.

Currently it is at 1320 triangles, which will be reduced back down to the 1200 area for the .s3o game model.

Win.

[Hoi]

Its perfect, exept that i think the missiles should be round

[smokingwreckage]

hawt secks winnar!

[MR.D]

Yeah, I could save a few triangles if I just made the missiles as "plugs" instead of having fins and the extra geometry on them.

Problem is then, its just going to look like hotdogs stuck in those tubes when they're just round tubes instead of shaped out missiles.

If you guys don't care if they're hollow tubes with the missiles completely visible inside, I could just cap em and make it a bit simpler, doesn't matter to me either way.

[Hoi]

I like how the missiles fit in in the original model, however i dont know if tat is becaus its good or becaus its just that bad than you dont see it

[clericvash]

I like how you have it now, keep it that way dude.

[Beherith]

Awesome! I love the final version!
And keep the missiles, Im tired of compromising some nice detail for a measly 100 tris.

idd, it might even use less cpu/gpu becaus 3do's are rendered (2 or 3?) times

[rattle]

3DOs aren't getting their backsides culled because most of the original TA models miss faces you couldn't see from the default 25.56° angle (atan(0.5)) in TA.

[REVENGE]

WIN.

*drools*

Make sure to make the missile as a separate model as well so we can have matching projectiles.

[SpikedHelmet]

Hawt fucking sex as usual, D.
