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
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.
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.
heya LoneWolf, nice progress on the high poly. Excellent design in the works…
I keep my eye out on this one 
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
i might not make it in time
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!
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
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
can u tell me how do i render with wirefram overlay? lol (i really dont know)
and how many hours left? =x
excellent. your not done? it looks done
I’m actually done with my entry, just making the submission images… 
I don’t think the fact that we haven’t made all of our submission images counts to disqualify
PS: could be wrong
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!
thanx man
the idea is basicly a biohazard medical container
computer can control pressure, temp, proccesing stuff u know 
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 
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
He probably textured half and then mirrored it. That would allow for finer details.
Looks awesome. Everything is great!
