The random model thread!

Quote from Warby

its for any tool that can import/export obj so its main focus apparently is maya yes

I don't understand, max can export and import obj too.

edit: tried it, can't get alpha maps to work in max

Pretty much anything can import/export objs (I used to use obj format when using Wings3D and Milkshape together - power combo ).

Sounds cool, I will check it out when my internet fixes. Currently mapcore seems the only site on the whole internets I can access

Normally I have no problems with alpha maps but when using this exporter they just wont work.

But i make games, do doo do do do do ...

nice stuff dude , would be cool to see it textured

Quote from Warby

a friend just showed me a super neat tool its a 3d ivy generator you just import an obj double click where it supposed to start growing you watch it grow and you export a new obj of your 3d ivy its main purpose is clearly off line rendering but the ivy generated is lowpoly enough that it could find real time use in next gen custom map ( i am looking at you unreal tournament 3 )

even for low end games it can be useful. you can just bake the information into texture for a lower poly mesh.

but yeah, it does look very neat

It already is textured - the original character is white:

Showing my age now. And the "If I was a rich man" is the ingame music.

Could use a few more polygons, the edges looks quite sharp.

I cut the 3 pages that followed this into a new thread because thats not what this one is for.

hey OL, at least you could have renamed the thread to something like paintball marker or something.

so based on termi/psycores request/concept a modular laser fence system for dystopia:

i also took the time and compiled all the models and copy pasted em into a dod source test scene (source sdk HAPPEND to be set to dod source ... no conspiracy here)

so here is warby style completely random total busyness extravaganza:

:roll:

yeah thats what happens when i just copy paste my post form polycount

really nice stuff - I love the lighting and shading.

How did you set up the 'beams'?

with a shitload of polygones and an additive fade texture thats scrolls

yeah i was asking myself the same thing.

although you are doing this for dystopia it looks great in dod, reminds me of resistance fall of men.

aliens meet ww2

The baked lighting really makes this great. Good work.
