I really like these models, keep up he good work
Re: Maroon's Modeling Corner - Senni - 19-05-2013
Just remembered, you have to save the texture with a alpha as DXT 3 or 5.
Sorry!
have exams atm, will be back properly on the 24th.
Re: Maroon's Modeling Corner - Maroon - 19-05-2013
I'm using photoshop, and when I save my alpha texture (I've created 2 seperate files; one normal texture, and one alpha), it doesn't give the option of saving it as DXT 3 or 5.
The options I get are as follows:
BMP
GIF
EPS
IFF
PCX
RAW
PNG
TGA
TIF
Anyone of those I might use?
Edit: Nvm, fixed it with Senni on IRC

The problem I stated above also goes for this model, though. The texture on the shiny parts seem distorted, with random stuff appearing in it. Also, these 'extra' textures change every time the texture is loaded. Is it a problem with the shader I use (specular_shader_skin_bump_high)?
I experience a similar problem. It looks like my model use a wrong normal and specular map ingame (actually it shouldn't use any since they aren't done). In openBrf everything seems fine, but ingame is not unless a shader quality is set to low. There is no alpha channel. Did you find a solution to your problem?
Re: Maroon's Modeling Corner - Maroon - 05-06-2013
Yep, I did!
It's a bit of a workaround, but I'll explain it here (thanks go to Senni for telleng me, by the way).
- Change your shader to envmap_shader_Instanced
- In the part saying 'Enviro', type "earthenvmap" (without " ofc)

Any chance this is going to be added? i know its a bit too fantasy but still looks incredible
Well done maroon !
Re: Maroon's Modeling Corner - Senni - 09-06-2013
Bit too fantasy oriented to be added, even though it is a great model maroon

I'll see if I can make a bit more realistic texture for this weapon. Too bad I'm no good as a texturer.
Also, I was wondering, could you tell me how to create a bag of bolts or a quiver with the bolts/arrows in it, and having them disappear when you shoot em? Because I might try making bolts or throwing spears or something.
Re: Maroon's Modeling Corner - Senni - 09-06-2013
Hmm I will have to check how to do that myself
Texturing wise:
1)Try to use/make a relatively simple base texture.
2)Add on all the detail later (scratches [white/grey brush small], used edges or areas [medium-light grey brush] etc) have a look at narf/faradon's models.
3)AO, shove it in a layer above and multiply that badboy.
4)if I made a blade of some kind, I like to dark the areas around the hilt, and have it fade as you go up the blade, with it darker up the center. (Dark blob + smudge tool in a different layer).
Take a look around, real life and models, see if there is any stuff you like the look of.
