Quote: --- Original message by: Joshflighter Quote: --- Original message by: anonymous_2009 Quote: --- Original message by: Joshflighter Quote: Triangles don't "clutter" the model, they show how the model is made up... These lines MAKE models and most forms of 3D art, so they are NOT useless. You are taking my words out of context and therefore butchering what I have said. When I say that they are useless, I am referring to when it is presented to other people. The extra lines are distracting. Most people will tell you to post a wire frame and then a shot with out a wire frame if you go on Poly Count or any other major forum. This is so that you first look at the non-wire frame model and get the idea and see if there are any bad parts to the model. Once you found them, you look at the wire frame to see if its the lighting/smoothing/ or topology that is creating the error. If you have the wire frame alone, it clutters the model if it is in to high of a poly count and distracts you from seeing all the bad things with the model. (Practicly what a Tri wire frame does compared to a normal wire frame). I don't understand why you are even arguing this point. You are basically saying its good to do extra work even though it has the same effect (or worse) compared to not going that extra mile. Both show the errors, only one distracts the viewer because it has double the wire frame line count or more. I apologies if I took what you said wrongly and mis-understood. I also apologies if you are taking my posts to be hostile and argumentative as i'm simply explaining, and not really directly arguing against you. I never said that a wireframe alone is wanted, of course a shaded render would be required as well. I'm talking about the actual build of the model, more than how it is rendered and presented. It is not extra work to cut in some edges to create the triangles, which may be required in order to create a good topology and to keep the triangles from being turned by external programs which may result in errors. A 12 sides polygon with no distinct and manually cut in edges / triangles can easily have smoothing errors and many other errors, where as if the triangles are cut in to how they are needed the edges can't turn and are controllable, and no errors occur. Without being hostile i'm going to say you are wrong by saying both show the errors. A wireframe with almost all of the triangles displayed also does not distract the viewer... not a viewer who is experienced and knows what to look for. It may distract someone new to 3D and overwhelm them, but that is it. I stand corrected in some parts of what you said. I understand what you are saying though a bit, i dont mean to sound like an ass |

In the interest of putting an actual weapon WIP on this page of the weapon WIP thread, and also in the interest of not bumping the CMT thread for a single measly animation set, I'm posting this here.
CMT SPV3 - Needler Redux Quote: Work-in-progress, tell me what youse peoples thinks. The reload motion was inspired by Reach's Concussion Rifle and Needle Rifle reloads; I wanted to take CAD's original concept and use it to make the Needler feel like a more heavy weapon. I think I did okay though I think it's maybe a bit too bouncy. Whee. |

Reach has spoiled me I guess Wait... a Halo game impressed you!? ;D @Spartan314 Not bad for a first, the recoil should be sharp, much quicker than what you have. Also, the ready animation is way to robotic, needs to be a more fluid movement, watch some Reach DMR videos, and you should get a better idea. Ill reserve judgement on the reload because you said you would improve it already :P |

Choppy video is choppy, can't crit it, because it seems like you hand animated every frame, intentionally trying to make it so choppy (yeah, it's that bad.). Also, the bolt on the side of the rifle (YOU KNOW THE ONE?) is supposed to move, when you fire, not sit still. So, let me get this straight; 'FRMT' is having you do their FP anims, even though you've never animated before? Genius idea, they never were that clever though, I guess. <-- not a fan of your origins either. But, then again, 'FRMT' is anti-amazingcuziam, so I don't need to be kind, right? |

Since when? As for the video... it's the best I got. I don't know how to render animations and slap em together to make a vid. I did make the bolt move. But I'm confused as to why it's not moving in the game... The choppiness, well, I'm trying to make use of the curve editor, but it's too complicated, so I'll take a lesson on that when I've got a full set. Now that I do, I can research it, and make them smoother. My origins suck, yes, but I posted on the forum, people gave me info on what to fix, and that's how it turned out. Too late to fix that now, unless I completely redo my animations, which I don't want to do until I can get these to a standard. (Probably will take a very long time...) Since FRMT didn't have a full time animator, I thought why not, and started to learn. Reminder that this is my FIRST EVER weapon that I've ever animated. Heck, it's my first ever anything that I've animated. |

What happened to the relaod :S He just taps the bottom of the clip...
And the firing affect is poor, there is no recoil at all... he just slowly pulls the weapon back and then forward. The ready animation is also poor, he just pulls is straight up from which looks like his stomach, should come up from an angle a bit... |

Curveeditor smoooth tangents ftw. That may help but it won't be enough and honestly I think relying entirely on a particular means of keyframe interpolation this early on is a bit of using a crutch. You need to work on your timing and consider how you're using the frames you've allocated. You're spending too much time just hovering around poses with neither significant motion going pose-to-pose or in-between animation idling around a pose responding to previous motions. Editing curves can make good ideas be executed better but I'd say your "ideas" aren't well-defined enough for it to be appreciably useful. Don't get discouraged but keep in mind that good animations take serious effort. Edited by teh lag on Aug 22, 2011 at 12:04 AM |
