Ugac - Prop 102 - Ultimate Crate/barrel - Lonewolf

[Seebaer]

great entry wofl, great idea and great concept. it's so revolutionary, keep on it dude ;-)

[AdamAtomic]

Maybe the crate could look like Arnold? :P

Ideas:

Cool piece of machinery strapped to a palette
Shopping Cart (alpha heavy but could be fun)
Fridge
Cart of medical equipment
Cart of computer equipment

Let's put those kickass hard surface skills to work!

[RO]

Sup Lonewolf have not seen you in a while. Can not wait to see what you come up with :D

[Swizzle]

Shopping Cart (alpha heavy but could be fun)Oh, man. I game set in a grocery store! That would be awesome! Do the shopping cart one!! :D

[xLonewolfx]

lol

btw thanx for the feedback guys

i think ill do some futuristic crate

but im still not sure


im still newbie with modeling

:shrug:

[xLonewolfx]

ok lets see..

description of game genre - FPS, sometime in the far future
concept sketch - dont have any, i never draw something before, i just do it :shrug:
its basicly a container for medical stuff, biohazard thingy


progress screens -
ok here we go

http://img152.echo.cx/img152/7048/supacratebarrelwip0qh.jpg

so far this is how it looks, (still wip and some parts need more work)
this is the hi poly version for the normal mapping

i just hope my low poly ver will be decent enough
thats gonna be hard since im going with very round shapes

:shrug:

ill try make it more detailed too

hope you like

its pretty fun, and it helps me learn some modeling too

:D

[AdamAtomic]

wow dude, VERY nice, 100% pro, can't wait to see the low poly and texture!

[xLonewolfx]

thanx adam! appreciate it very much


:thumbsup:

its 5 am :O i need some sleep

[Swizzle]

Dang, man. That's looking awesome! I can't wait to see the low-poly version, especially once it's textured.

[fanton]

LoneWolf, it looks pretty nice!

some ideas i had while looking at your model

you can just paint the biohazzard symbol on the lowpoly version, to save some triangles. to me it looks like something from SystemShock game. its probably one of those substances used to make men into mutants.

i see it with a transparend tube half filled with some green sustance.

looks very nice though :thumbsup:

[xLonewolfx]

dont worry, things like the logo wont be modeled on the low

:)

not sure about the texturing
ill see how it goes


i need some help with baking the normal maps

i never done it before
what tools do i use?

can anyone help me?

im using max 5
but i got 7 too

[fanton]

if you mean what i think you mean, you can apply a UNWRAP UVW to create a 2d map of your thingy. more than that i don't know. i'm learning as i go :)

i don't know what you mean by baking the normal maps.

[spirogyro]

I could of swore that someone mentioned the tools to use to do this somewhere in this challenge. I think it was in JamesMK's thread, but I'm not sure. Look around, you'll find it. I am really eager to see how this will turn out in lowpoly.

[hanzo]

heya LoneWolf, nice progress on the high poly. Excellent design in the works...

I keep my eye out on this one ;)

[xLonewolfx]

thanx for the nice words peeps


time is runing out and im still fighting with the normal mapping

didnt think its gonna be that much of pain in the ass

this stuff is not easy to work with
specialy for first time :(

anyone here are the parts that are decent enough

more progress

the rest might change cause im out of polies lol

any good?

[hanzo]

lookin good so far.. maybe could you post some lowpoly screens for us?

[Supervlieg]

I think the latest pic is low poly. It looks good far, though its gonna need a little bit of color to make it spring to life. Waiting for an update!

[hanzo]

yeah that's right ( Supervlieg comment ) but I ment low poly wires, we could give you some tips, this should go under 1000 no problem.


PS: again looking great

[xLonewolfx]

thank mang

its exactly 1000 polies now

here is some textured pic
its reallt quick

wish i had more time
look like im not gonna make it

anyway here is the pic

another one

i still didnt get to work on the side thing

:(

[AdamAtomic]

Looking really good dude! the detail on the normal map is exquisite.

[hanzo]

excellent. your not done? it looks done

I'm actually done with my entry, just making the submission images.. :thumbsup: I don't think the fact that we haven't made all of our submission images counts to disqualify

PS: could be wrong :(

[aphexx]

a cool thing your crate. what can be found in it, and what is the screen for?

some improvements would be to have an animated gif as the diffuse texture, where only the lcd screen is animated and always giving out lines of code and scrolling down.

and you could fake some kind of ambient occlusion/"shadow", where 2 hoses coming out the container, and elsewhere thing stand out the planes, to give it more depth.

cool work so far! :thumbsup:

[xLonewolfx]

thanx man

the idea is basicly a biohazard medical container

computer can control pressure, temp, proccesing stuff u know :P


and i added some groves where the pipe goes in the crate, it better now (i think)

ill post more pics soon

wish i had more time!!
im really rushing with the textures :sad:

oh and i dont think animated gif is allowed
maybe ill add it after the challange :D

[xLonewolfx]

heres another render done by a friend (VVRY)

i think ill change the screen
tho my website looks nice as a screen to that thing lol

[trixil]

looking great man I wish I had enough time to have gotten mine done!

[Bazooka Tooth]

how did you get that fine of detail in a 512x512 color map?

[Swizzle]

how did you get that fine of detail in a 512x512 color map?He probably textured half and then mirrored it. That would allow for finer details.

Looks awesome. Everything is great! :thumbsup:

[Bazooka Tooth]

yes, overlaping uv's, it's very crisp. I thought he knew something I didnt.

[xLonewolfx]

those renders are actualy with bigger maps

now im fixing up the 512 maps

ill post soon

the mirror doesnt work with normal, i tryed :( (atleast i donno how to do it)
