The small project i've been working on for the last 2 days. i didnt spent much time on this so im quite happy with the outcome.The last 2 shots are rendered with yafray with a Smoothing angle of 50 and 6 AA passes with 2 as a minimum. No fancy lightning tricks or so.
i'l texture it later this evening or this weekend.

Those wheels are pretty bad =/ They are too low poly imo.
Nice model though and good economical use of polies

The wheels are quite standard for games like Half-Life, the texture is going to need to do the trick.
Red for sure
Then again:
image / adjust / heu saturation
colorize
move the slider
and there is your newly coloured car in 3 seconds .

Pepper: I think the wheels should be 8-side cylinders, if that, instead of octagon shaped. That way you still utilize a similar number of sides but they actually appear round and will smooth out a bit better. Other than the tyres it looks good.

Should look great textured. Decent car, too.
Rabid: an eight-sided 'cylinder' isn't an octagonal prism?

Its an 8-sided cylinder rabid, i just turned it 22,5 degree so the flat side would be on the bottom. Looks more like a 6 sided one, i agree on that.

is it necessary to do that many colors? just adjust the coloring in photoshop.
But, a BM and non-BM version of each one should be done.

Give the wheels an odd number of sides like 9 or so. Itll looks less like lug nuts sticking out of the sides.

Uvmapzored 
here's how i did this:
http://www.sleepyghost.com/u6p/character_mapping_gmax.pdf
Well. 9 sides are definately a option, but its a pain in the ass to work with, neither will it improve the look and it will only cost polygons and rendering time.
I usualy work with 6,8,12,18,32.64 sides.

You just got to pull out a few days to get the hang of it. When you got the basics then you'll be able to work on with it.
i'm writing a tutorial on uvmapping. describing a few different techniques in this and how you can use em to your advantage. Offcourse all in g-max.

Any thoughts of a BM Motorcycle? Bus?
I'll probably model these later for my mod, but it should be in this little pack that's forming.
Maybe even expand the file and i could do fire hydrants, windows fixtures, plants, furniture, etc.
hm?

Hey Pepper, is g-max similar to XSI? Im having trouble getting the hang of UV mapping. Does that tutorial you gave also apply to XSI? Can I use it for objects instead of characters?
Posted 18 years ago2006-05-01 10:41:55 UTC
Post #177675
Thats a good idea Rimrook.. Pepper, you and me should work on a BM pack. Containg high, and low definition models.

Post #177679
Rim unb, definately. Lets il send some PM's later to discuss this further.
Xyos, i have no idea since i dont use XSI. I dont like the feel of the program. You can use Uvmapping tutorials for anything you like, since its all the same.
On a other note: I'm having some trouble with the textures, il post a screenshot of it here later on. Its quite a pain in the ass to skin the lightning on cars.

i was gonna put together a pack of models, that's why i suggested it. I get tired of downloading 1 model at a time, and finding that they suck. A good vehicle pack would be used by all sorts of mappers and modders.

Yup, i forgot to use AA when filling it up, that makes it very visible, especialy at low resolution (512x512).

I'll be fair and square here, my tires are absolutely amazingly utterly ugly crap.
alright, i've said it.
Even though most modelers find it the best part of car modeling.

Yeah, definately to clean. And indeed, the lights could be a bit lower. There's going to be some sort of grate between them though.
