Lavarider Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 Yeah, believe it or not, I never got around to skinning that last model...I really need experience at that..Im gonna go look at a tut online...no to ask a dumb question, but how do I uv map him? Bow to me, as a slave does before his master, or a peasant before his king. For, you shall soon be as such to me.

I'm not really a modeler...All I know is that in the end you'll have a wireframe skin of him that I could turn into a skin. EDIT: BTW, did you try out the new Samus?

Lavarider Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) I just figured out how to uv map him...its only in sections though, right now, like the head, kneecaps, etc...

Lavarider Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) Im joining all the sections into one big map now, hold on Here...Its a little jumbled, sorry..Ill get it better, but for now, sections, from the top left and going down...

Lavarider Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) Oh, I didnt know...ok, Ill post a rar with each seperate section in a second Here, this will do (hopefully) Edited June 19, 2008 by Lavarider Bow to me, as a slave does before his master, or a peasant before his king.

1upD Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 Oh, I didnt know...ok, Ill post a rar with each seperate section in a second Here, this will do (hopefully)WHOA! When you said it was divided into sections, I thought you meant 3 or 4, not 12! I can probably skin it(Starting with the easy parts) but in some cases it's hard to tell what the UV is of. For instance, what is "main body leg joint.bmp"? The head, which I am about to skin, appears to be more of a screenshot of the head wireframe from the side than a UV. But I'll skin it anyways!EDIT: Oh my, we're both online!EDIT2:I didn't even notice your last few posts somehow... How silly of me :Before I continue, will you be able to re-UV the combined map onto the model?

Lavarider Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 What do you mean by re-uv the combined map? The head is a 3ds max UV map, that's what it gave me...I think its cause the head is perfectly symmetrical, so you only do half of it...sorry about all the sections, I have to keep them separate so I can animate the model.

Lavarider Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 "It looks more like a screenshot than a skin..." Yeah, I know...But this is what texporter and max gave me, so it must be the base for a skin...perhaps a template? Bow to me, as a slave does before his master, or a peasant before his king.

Yeah, I know...But this is what texporter and max gave me, so it must be the base for a skin...perhaps a template?I know it's a template, that's what UVs are. It just looks like it won't wrap around the model properly. I'm probably wrong. I'll try to work on it today. EDIT: I tried skinning the UV. Well, it didn't turn out so good, but could you put it on the model to see if it works ok?

Lavarider Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Wow, you know what? That skin may seem a bit crude but in game and in the alo viewer it actually looks way better than you think it would...the skin worked perfectly-a perfect wrap around the model...Now he has red eyes to scare everyone with!! I have him in game right now (literally, I have FOC minimized so I can type this), he's an absolute beast-a gargantuan turbo laser and laser cannon on each leg, and two antimatter missile (proton torpedo) launchers on his head...combine that with his heavy armor and shields...I think you have to orbital bombard him to even start harming him...

Lavarider Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Well, for one thing, your purple turned pinkish cause it was in the light...Head separation...I must say I don't exactly know what you mean, but if you are asking how the head is separate from the rest of the model, it this. The model MasterZoda gave me is designed for animation. Therefore, each disparate piece of the model, like foreleg, head, foot, are actually separate from each other, in order to allow for moving each of them for animation. Edit: See, your purple looks like this in shadow... Bow to me, as a slave does before his master, or a peasant before his king. For, you shall soon be as such to me.

Therefore, each disparate piece of the model, like foreleg, head, foot, are actually separate from each other, in order to allow for moving each of them for animation.Ah...I'm talking about ingame. There's an animation of the head flying away in one of your screenies. Would Quadraxis just turn into a turret, with the head flying around in circles, or would you make the floating head a separate model and have the head a separate unit when you destroy Quadraxis body?

Lavarider Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 UUUmmm....there is no animation of the head flying....FOC does not have any code for a "rebirth mechanism"...I don't know if I can make his head survive his death...As is now, if you can actually crack every hardpoint (good freaking luck) he collapses to the ground with a moan (i took the animation and sound effects from the UAW habitat walker) and dies.

The scout trooper and Skiff uses it. You can have one unit spawn another when it dies. It's lots of fun, I remember when I made Rebel pilots come out of snowspeeders when they blow up.

Lavarider Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Really!?! well then, allow me to ask you.. 1) should I allow quadraxis' head to live after his body's death. 2) Should his body's destruction count as his death on the galactic map? 3) Should his head fight, or be doomed to short range turret duty? 4) Should the head's weapons change to a weaker set (i.e. no torpedo launchers) once it is alone? Edit: 5) how fragile should the head be (i.e. shields and armor) Bow to me, as a slave does before his master, or a peasant before his king. For, you shall soon be as such to me.
