[HP] ~ 3D Sketchbook Thread

Yeah, it's a face with two tris!

I'll post a wire of the HighP, I can even share the .MAX if you guys want to take a peak at it, and/or the PSD's.

Sorry Pampers, but I don't really understand what you mean. Could you elaborate on that?

Quote from Sa74n

you should really watch out for ao bugs resulting from overlaying details, especially concave ones, on the highpoly model. its worth fixing that stuff in photoshop.

Yeah, I did that but I had to rush it so some of the areas were left intact. it's the downside of using lot's of flotaters. The normal maps comes out clean, but one must do lot's of clean up on the AO map.

Thanks dude!

Ah. so that's what you meant!

Yeah man, Lot's of people do that, and I did it in the past (I used that technique with the crate, although very subtle), but I found that it doesn't really work very well, it also really depends on what engine you're using to render your stuff. A good specular should be enough to give it a little bit of depth illusion to the scratches. After all, it's scratches, not indentations on metal. Which is also a good thing to do on this kind of stuff!

Btw, the worflow you mentioned is correct, but it's not enough to just put that generated normal map on overlay. After that you should go to curves, and put the blue channel to 128.

This is the source files for my entry on speed texturing competition at game-artist.nethttp://%7boption%7d

there's everything in there, .MAX with the original high poly, the low poly (just a plane )

and I've also included the original PSD files for all the maps. I've resized them to 1024*1024 tho,

as the originals were 2048*2048, they got to big to pack it into a RAR file.

I used xnormal to bake my original piece, but if you select the plane on the .MAX file It's already set up

to render using Max's baker.

You'll need XOLIUL viewport shader to properly view this in Max's viewport, I've placed it on the RAR as well,

just in case. (Although, you wont have parallax mapping on it, that's why I used marmoset to submit my final pic)

This is it, keep in mind of course, that I'm sharing this solo for your learning!

I'm all for freedom of information and transparency, so I hope I encourage others to do the same

and share their workflows!

Be nice!

PS. .MAX will only work in 3DsMax2010.

Little something I've working on my free time the last week.

Credits for design and refs and shit goes all to Doom3!

Thanks dude!

This kind of stuff is good practise and fun to do. But yep, It's probably going to be my last of this kind of style. One gotta evolve!

Oh btw, I failed to give a description for it. It's supposed to be a Hangar Gate. I'll get started on this LP today, this time is going to be more than a single poly!

Tkx d3!

here's my entry for this weeks gamc
