I'm not sure this time, maybe he's stepped his grammar game a bit

Just you know... Batman Beyond.

Well thanks Captain Obvious (Altheros).

If anyone is hungry for some pictures:





Next stop, finger rigging!
Should have a video up in a few hours or so.

thunder thighs lol.

i would suggest adding more details or decals or w/evs, but it was really great seeing Terry McGinnis ingame.

Watch out guys! Batman can levitate!

I actually don't know what's causing that. :(

Here's a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ac483ebGLCw&feature=g-crec-u

E: Btw, anyone wanna suggest cubemaps?

Try moving the "right foot" and "left foot" markers up so that they're halfway inside the mesh of the feet, because they're what judge where the ground point is(look at the bottom of the biped tag).

You don't really need the transform animations and the sounds can be easily recorded.
As for spectacular maps,I would like to nominate Lumoria.And any map isn't a simple remake with new weapons.

I think you missed his joke instead...

Ahoy thur felluhs






Took a while since there were 50+ materials I had to mess with. This here is shrunk down to 13 materials/shaders.
It's in a .scenery state at the moment, but it's my next rigging project (going to do it to default halo 1 elite boneset).
ALL shaders are placeholders.

That elite looks great, perhaps add just a tad more shinyness to the shaders.

Those shaders aren't bad at all. If you've done/plan to do the other Reach elite permutations, I will probably squeal gleefully like a little girl getting tickets to a Justin Bieber concert.

Just an simple reflection diffuse metal cubemap is good. Or cubemap mirror surface ! Not always take from the other halo games ! Halo 1 has a good potential.

Oh God... it did that and... lets just say I'll just re-rig it.

Just to show what happened when I put the pre-rig on the new bones.


The one on the left is scenery, and the one on the right is biped.


:(
Oh, and the compiled thing said something about region counts not matching... Dunno what it means or how to fix it.
4 regions on the HCE elite, 4 regions on my elite. *shrug*

The Elite got a bigger brain during the process.

i can haz teh arbitur modlez?

NO.YOU CAN NOT HAZ.

halo reach elite heads looked ugly, so I removed them!

and made better (stupidly high-poly) versions instead!

I forget where the severed texture is applied, but I thought it would be cool (and mildly disturbing) to re-UV them to the neck and arms. thanks, R93_Sniper, for the biped!

They freaking look like crysis nanosuits...

The stump looks very disgusting.

(Ignore the mandibles for now)


I'm gonna fix the stretches tomorrow. Rigging is fun!

I like the jaw, he's got some awesome mutton chops

hooray for 3ds max's bump map rendering!
high poly=33000+ triangles, including eyes and teeth
low poly= 1180, including eyes and teeth
high poly, low poly + bake, low poly


now on to texturing + rigging.

Does anyone remember "The Lost Spartan Tags"? Well they just had an appearance on Machinima a couple of months ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kL3jbyKeY4&feature=relmfu. Just thought it was interesting.

Reach Elite Biped update guys.

I tried this and I tried that, but I just can't seem to manipulate the rig the way I want it to. There's screw ups in the stomach area, and a huge stretch in the right clavicle area.

Also, I made a new collision for the elite because the old one's region counts didn't match. But now the Reach Elite just won't die. Except by assassination. Any ideas?

Did you modify the collision model tag to have a set amount of health and shields?
O_O

Nvm. I went back to 3dsmax to redo the collision and changed some values in guerilla and fixed it.

E: Actors INGAME!
I haven't set up a multi-texture for the shader so for now the whole biped is blue-ish. I'll probably do that tomorrow.

Where art thou Noble Six?

The only thing I see wrong is that it doesn't look like it's even holding the plasma repeater.

Edited by ReconNinja117 on Nov 17, 2012 at 02:22 PM

LOL

I'd love to see this in game, or at least a model of it.

I've tried on numerous occasions to model it but I'm terrible at it.

EDIT: I'm trying again. Here's a real quick render.

the kneepads are smaller and don't stick out as much, the leg verts that connect to said kneepads are higher to make a downward slope, and the 2 slits on the legs are diamond-shaped, not hexagonal.
