[SHOWOFF] What Are You Working On

[phantomx]

Woke up today with a Mission!! XD... Which was to Try and figure out how the hell to put the Specular Map on my car mount.... After reviewing some 2Hand weapons M2/Skin makeup and 2 hours later, kinda figured out a way to do it on the Car Mount.  However my car's not grouped up for reflections so the interior is also reflective as well as the undercarriage.

Good job man, I've been thinking lately of starting to work on reflection as well the matte style is nice on some cars but not all like the Skyline that baby needs to show some style with reflection.

P.S.

I might be releasing some models I'm working on I.E. the Hummer below, crunching the polygon count is no fun...

I read that, then looked at your avatar and started laughing uncontrollably lol.  Could imagine the avatar sayin that in a very glum voice hahaha.  but anyway... still trying to remember shadows.. i reckon shadows probably work fine in 335 when using mjollna's converter.

Cars and WoD characters, amazing work, guys.
But my little showoff dedicated to the very very old idea.



(I have really bad skills in 3d modelling (about 0) but I'll try to do my best in future )

Man that looks great, the lore seeker part of me has always wanted to fix up Lordaeron to it's good old Warcraft III days.

It's not shit, that's epic, great job brother!!  Where did you get the banshee model from? XD I would love to get my grubby hands on the Sentinel or Comet XD

Anyway I got shadows working in Catalcysm now, royal pain compared to 3.3.5a   The difference is that in WoTLK and previous, the entire geometry that's non alpha'd casts the shadow, in Cataclysm you can select which submesh casts the shadow and which ones don't. Which in theory is better however since there are no tools for it and I had to do it manually, it's a pain hehehe...

Atleast that's my understanding of it, there's no documenation on it so my understanding may be wrong.

Anyway Shadow, Cataclysm, Max Anti-Aliasing, And it Self Shadows too so that's nice:

Great job man I knew you could figure it out.

P.S.

This is all I could find, I hope it's the correct model.

Nice, but anyway the Sentinel and Comet are GTA4 Car Models, Sentinel is a sporty BMW-esque look alike, and the Comet is a Porsche-esque look alike.

So that's the baby you're gonna do next?  Oh did you get windows/specular to work in  335a?

Goodluck with that buddy, Im gonna work on an Enzo from Forza 3 next... well that's the idea atleast, I may end up doing something else as the Enzo is 37k polygons and trying to smash that down is going to take heaps of work lol.

Nice, I'm working on a lexus sports model so far down to 276k polygons from 1mil lol this is when you talk to yourself about how much you hate life lol.

And it's one of those Set Selection monstrosities too XD, well You could always look into re-topo/building the model and using the model as a base to build on top of, but then again we are Lazy Folk.... that idea flies right out the window faster than our inability to spell check lol.
