WIP: stuff you are working on!

@scrub: Is that solid works you are modeling in?

If thats the case and can export to arma that would bde opening a new world for me

Nice one Jahve,finally something different.

keep it up,good job.

Why does he have an ugly hat and popsicle sticks on his chest? What country is that soldier from?

[Jahve 0]

light sticks, US.

Special forces operating in afghanistan use pakols as a sign of respect to the locals, or to blend in with.

ugly hat eh?.

jahve get him dirty

he needs to have more dust and dirt on him

[Yossarian 0]

Great stuff Jahve! Thanks for adding realistic details like that pakol

[Jahve 0]

jahve get him dirty

Looking good Jahve.

that looks like a very nice and clean model. Keep up the good work

edit: i wish i could spell

Wipman really great rifles!

Can't wait for them just like it was for Your M4 for OFP.

P.S. Anyone would try to make this baby? http://www.crysis-france-dwl.com/img/170507-1.jpg

this is not request thread so get better wind your neck in here mate.. try the other thread for this.....

@surpher

why do you need so much beveling on the hood edges??

youd be better of using like 2-max 3 bevels for that.

rest is done via normals

invest those polys into the wheels

here´s a paintover if you dont mind

remember to terminate cut in details edges/verts/polys as soon as possible

i know its just a wip but im pointin it out for the others too.

invest more polys in bigger things

eg tires are bigger and therefore need more polys to appear round.

a pipe can easily have like 5 -7 segments to appear round

or even less

.. why the hell arent those stupid thumbnails not workin again..GRRR

[surpher 1]

Thanks for the paintover nephilim, I appreciate the time you spent.

I'm gonna have a tidy-up and remove the dead edges before I progress any further.

[Kristian 47]

80 full! and millions of lovely WIP pics around the pages!

I only miss FDF mod WIPS

but I am sure there will be some!

-----------------------

now, is it possible to add new reloading animation for a weapin, cuz I was told that some Russian WWII mod had that thing with a bolt action rifle...

and my other question, how I can see thw wireframe or do I have to draw it myself?

[Commando84 0]

nice pic Neph! you seem more than pro! Have you considered doing any tutorials on modelling? not a request just throwing a idea

[abs 2]

Thanks for the paintover nephilim, I appreciate the time you spent.

I'm gonna have a tidy-up and remove the dead edges before I progress any further.

Don't forget that faces can have a maximum of four edges. I made that mistake on my first model, and spent a LONG time fixing it.

Is that an o2 limitation or something? All polies are really 1 or more triangles.

Some more of Shaw

Thanks to Parvus for the top two screens

[lennard 447]

Thats really great Jahve. Do you have plans to release it? Because that would be really cool.:notworthy:

@commando84

i actually tried :P but im way too lazy writing

plus usually such tutorials are way to generic anyway and often certain models are a case to case thing

but ill guess ill come up with some stuff in the next days if you all say please

@plaintiff1

yes

all game apps convert to tris.

they calculate faster.

in other apps like MAX or whatever you can have so called meta- or n-gons.

polygons that share multiple sides eg 5 sided.

however these are usually a pain in the arse cause the pc will always divide it into tris, but since a pc isnt smart he doesnt know how it looks good

Quote[/b] ]All polies are really 1 or more triangles.

ok that doesnt make much sense XD

a triangle is a polygon

a quad is also a polygon too

like an indish friend would say: " theyr zhe saame! but diffrend!"

@jahve

that normal map on the trousers has too much effect

tone it down a bit. looks like hes wearing burlap trousers

*whip-crack* hehehehe

[Jahve 0]

NOO! NOT THE WHIP! PLEASE! GOOOD!

No, Lennard, I am not planning on releasing it... OFCOURSE IM RELEASING IT!

In 3d, all poligonal shapes are made of one or more triangles. The whole n-gon thing is just an issue of visualization. You should know this. Sometimes programs use this visualization to help decide how to subdivide edges, but at the end of the day, they are just functions affecting triangles based on some other factors.

Take a quad laying on the x,z plane in maya, take two opposite corners, and translate them in the y direction. You'll notice that they are triangulated by the way the quad deforms. Now undo that, and take the other corners. You'll notice that the hypotenuse edge between the two triangles is consistent. ALL non tri poligons are made up of invisible edges that form triangles, full stop.
