They Hunger used it but it was originally created by Valve. I think you can find it in the SDK model files.

I'm pretty sure most "modern" games still use that method.

One game suddenly substitutes as defining the entire 'modern' selection of video game techniques.

Before I was edit-blocked, I was going to add;
Joe: Now you just need to make a custom set of hgrunt head piece gibs (or one per head, with 2 skins) and code it in so they appear when the head is...well, gibbed.

Don't be a twat, you know fine well that modern games do it like that. Valve are the only ones I know of that let you view wireframe in-game which is why I used it as an example.

AFAIK, CoD4 uses the method I stated, MW2, and Black Ops, and many others that I can't think of off of the top of my head.

Portal is close-quarters so detail is pretty high. If you have an entire forest, plane leaves and branches are likely to be used.

@Jeff,
Yeah, I need to make some kind of brain gib, everything else is all set.

you know fine well that modern games do it like that.Modern games do it yes, but not all developers want to be like Valve and make beautiful small enclosed spaces, and would rather make large open spaces with enough detail to fill in, yet play above 2 fps.
Then compare it to this tree:
Regardless of what many developers may 'prefer' or 'do', it doesn't matter, depending on what you're doing you should decide what's right. If you're going to have several and several counts of foliage onscreen, tone them down a little, otherwise if it's just ONE plant in the entire map, then by all means go batshit insane.

get the UDK tree editor and see if you can export the model, and compile it for half life?

Whenever (when ever) I make a tree, I use a single triangle for each leaf so there is 200 polygons for a trunk plus 300 for the leaves.

Post #294514
Yeah I've never really made a tree before, so I'm not quite familiar with the methods of making one. I guess I'll try that "lower-poly" method with planes with alpha for tree leaves.

Nice, clean mesh. Just a showcase model or are you going to port it and use it in a map?
Here's a M9 I was modelling for a bit, but unfortunately the .Max file got corrupted somehow and I lost all of it.
[Forgive the smoothing errors, too damned lazy to set manual groups and autosmooth yielded those results]

haha LOL, never noticed that till now.
EDIT;
BMW is done and ready for portfolio.
Now I'm working on my Tank:
EEER nevermind, tank is glitching out I closed maya, then reopened the file, and it goes black and flickers, so it appears like a duplicate, but it doesn't even come up in the 'outliner' so I can't delete it..
Edit..
Redoing some of the glitchy stuff over..

The exteriors are loosely based on a police station from GTAIV, but the interiors are from scratch. Thanks

I started working on this last year before Urby recruited me for The Core. Just trying to polish it and get it released now.
Heavily inspired by Bad Company 2, but the only part which is a straight recreation is the factory building. The rest is original.

mmm not bad huntey, it just strikes me as very plain. something about the texturing or just how everything is so clean in such a dusty environment. reckon you need to throw some grimey decals around the joint.
pretty killer remake of the bc2 building tho, props.

It's time for a duel.
I would put in-game screenshots, but the TD code files are a bit corrupted. Yeah, in game, you can't see anything thats an entity.
Posted 13 years ago2011-06-05 22:04:45 UTC
Post #295272
Or maybe you have too many entities, or maybe you suck at mapping.
Posted 13 years ago2011-06-05 22:15:39 UTC
Post #295273
or maybe I don't have too many entities, or maybe even c1a0 doesnt work in TD, or maybe valve uses too many entities, or maybe you smell like poonuggets.
[EDIT] Also, that's an area the player isnt able to reach, so it doesn't matter wether or not it has fancy architectual detials and such.

The error's in the client DLL. I was experiminting... did I just write that? "Experiminting"? I was experimenting with new model rendering code replacing Valve's built-in and it didn't work and I forgot all about it when TD was put on hold. I'm working on reverting it.

Looks good. Maybe change the texture on the side of the bridge. Blue/grey metal suddenly has a rusty side? Bit odd.
And add a railing or Health & Safety will shut you down.
