Spring RTS Engine

@ AF : The problem is that my pictures are too large and resizing engine of the forum is pretty ugly :D And the thread may be long to load if I use img tag. So even if it's boring to click on links to view img, I don't think I'll use img tag

Well, some improvements on the annihilator texture I think.

Cool, get em in game and post a shot

Pretty substantial improvement, nice work man.

Quick question though, are the bright green areas just faked Teamcolor for now?

Thx :)

@ Mr.D : Yep, the teamcolor is faked. It's just a view render in blender (without any light or any rendering improvement) atm. I'll do dds textures and Upspring stuff soon, but actually, scripts has to be done by someone else

wow.....
speechless

Improvement on the texture. Nice job Cremuss.

Looks fine loaded fast enough, just put one image of them and then list the others underneath so it aint image spam

Good work ^_^

Ideally make them 560 px wide

Thx :)

Ok @ imgs :)

So I need help here. It's only my second attempt to make dds and s3o files, so you'll have to check if what I've done here is ok before I make others one.

S3o file :

DDS files :
http://fodb.darkstars.co.uk/files/sprin ... s/tex1.dds
http://fodb.darkstars.co.uk/files/sprin ... s/tex2.dds

3ds files if needed because I can't manage .obj files with upspring. There is troubles with names and separated objects etc...
http://fodb.darkstars.co.uk/files/sprin ... ilator.3ds

So please, someone check that.
Thx :)

What did you create the DDS with? Also, they need mipmaps or Spring will crash. That's how they look after importing the DDS' in PS and DXTbmp.


Also, there's a nasty seam, but it's probably too late for that now.


Specular/reflection maps are missing too (tex2 green/blue).
Oh yeah, the glowing energy parts on the gun should probably be added to the glow map.

thx

I used the Upspring texture builder.

Also, they need mipmaps or Spring will crash

How do I do that ?

Yep I've seen the seam. I think I can correct that in the texture.

Specular/reflection maps are missing too (tex2 green/blue).

Humm I don't have any idea how the specular/reflection maps should looks I thought it was 1 bit tex.

Nothing in the texture ? :/

Humm I don't have any idea how the specular/reflection maps should looks :roll: I thought it was 1 bit tex.

No it's 32 bit RGBA. You can use DXT1 compression with 1 bit alpha, though.

Here's the PS plugin. To store the alpha channel you need to flatten the texture before saving.

loving it

cant wait

Ok, I've used the gimp DDS plugin.
It's 100x much better.

What do you think about a new topic for each units done ? It'll be easier I think.

you probably make too many units, the whole forum would just be your stuff XD

Maybe have one topic (like your 'remodel' topic), and just keep the first post always updated with links to all the latest models that you've finished.

yeah just edit first post when units are done.

Wow.

Needs more teamcolour though.

In game it looks much better than I thought.)

With extra-glow it looks like this (not better):

Glow on the turret hasn't be at the center, imho, at the root better.

It'd be so cool if you'd reskin the bertha like that.

Does this suffer from grey blob at a distance issues?
