nephilim 0 Posted May 11, 2008 sheesh...... time to dig out that corpse managed to retrive them from my laptop´s crashed HD. however these models arent up to my standards anymore by now and ill be only finishing up them ak74 with its attachments and polishing it a bit, the others are up for the bin. atm im creating the highpoly model parts for the normal maps im like 1/3 done with that roughly so its gonna take a bit. it wont be such a long break though pics. hope my russian didnt rust aswell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Serclaes 0 Posted May 11, 2008 You made these with your laptop? Which laptop did you have or do you have now if asking isn't impolite? My old thing doesn't have enough available RAM to import a 3ds in Blender. Tho i must say it worked with Windows but Ubuntu 8.04 is just more comfortable. This AK really looks good. You can clearly see the experience you have in this matter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nephilim 0 Posted May 11, 2008 Yar ive made that with my laptop back then. fujitsu siemens amilio d 8830 64 mb gfx and 512mb ram... stonage compared to what i have now.. octo core, 16 gig ram .... these renders are new tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.g-c 6 Posted May 11, 2008 however these models arent up to my standards anymore by now and ill be only finishing up them ak74 with its attachments and polishing it a bit,the others are up for the bin. Are you serious? They looked like in real life man. Maybe you could contact the guys from the ACE mod if they need some of your weapons (if you are willing to give them away). Don't delete them, as i guess it was a lot of work. Regards, Christian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MehMan 0 Posted May 11, 2008 I was wondering...if perhaps you'd be willing to release the PSDs along with the models...I'd like to poke around to see if it can help improve my shit texturing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nephilim 0 Posted May 11, 2008 meh.. i dont think that piece of junk looks realistic.. it just looks like an ak lol... @mr.g-c im just scrapping the vss val and groza if the ak turns out nice ingame im gonna give a svd a spin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MehMan 0 Posted May 12, 2008 meh.. i dont think that piece of junk looks realistic..it just looks like an ak lol... Still better than anything I produced. That's why I'm asking. It just looks so purty. And good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameronMcDonald 146 Posted May 12, 2008 Seconded, I wouldn't bin them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panda-PL- 0 Posted June 25, 2008 I think edges of upper hanguard got turned to smooth upon importing. And possibly some edge on the rear sights base too, because I can see triangles of different lightning on the side of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nephilim 0 Posted June 25, 2008 yup. seen that. fix that. arma has a pretty bad way with dealing with normal maps... il check the models triangulation and see if i can eliminate some of the errors Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wipman 1 Posted June 25, 2008 Hi, those AK74M's look amazing, almost like the real ones; very good news that they finnaly will be released soon. My offer still standing, when you release 'em... we could get married..! you've great talent and i got a big... "humour sense"?. Now going back to the reality... don't the units hold the AK too backwards? seems that they hold it better by the front grip than by the rear grip, at least that's what it looks to me; the weapon looks the best well done until date. Great news, thanks for your effort. Let's C ya Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nephilim 0 Posted June 25, 2008 model was just quickly imported to see how it looks ingame. so theres minor errors here and here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panda-PL- 0 Posted June 25, 2008 arma has a pretty bad way with dealing with normal maps... I belive it's rather the way O2 messes up the meshes. Sometimes splits edges. Sometimes splits them, then merges but makes them soft as a result. It's a headache. You can try unchecking the extra "options" boxes when importing if you're using 3ds as base format. The geometry will remain split, but less messed up at least. It looks georgeous, but the textures suffered a lot. :/ This is ArmA. Waiting for the pack. Best AK replacements since RHS.

Mark XIII (DayZ) 18 Posted June 25, 2008 Heya, this stuff looks great! Do these use the default sounds or have you made some ? I'd love to make some sounds for them badboys...

Uziyahu--IDF 0 Posted June 25, 2008 That is one fine-looking VSS Vintorez! Don't you DARE scrap it! I do agree that you could probably do better work on the AS Val, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USSRsniper 0 Posted June 26, 2008 Nice model and textures, but back fo the stock is not worn out enough. And liek the fact that you actually modelled the AK, not as some people just take one from CSS This is what i mean, http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/2716/1vsbig2323iw1.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
