You should change the texture for the wire on top to something other than what you used for the windows. Or is that just like a reference for now? BTW, I like the wheels better now.

yay, a crappy update!!!:
notes: textures suk i know, but i suk at texturing best i could do, also ya slasher the textures are gonna be replaced anyways, so the window grates and top are being changed, etc, and i know top has the same texure as side, i dont care atm:

OOooh...

Looks gritty.

ADD BLOOD ON IT!! =)

^ especially with those metal backings on all the windows.
im liking what you did with the wheels and the grill thing in front, but man you need to do something about the yellow in the front. im pretty sure you already know what the issue is

you could also add more sides above the wheels. the rest looks high poly, so i cant imagine it would hurt to make the area above the wheels more round too

I cant imagine why a Bread Truck would require a security grille , a fence on the top , and the reinforced bumper. Yes , change the yellow on the front , its not very good.

It's modified for zombie protection. Of course it wouldn't be this way in real life.

are there copyrights on gta models? I wanna make sure there aren't before releasing my linerunner tags

no I checked

I think a basic rule is that you can use any asset ripped from games, as long as there is no sale or profit.
Also dont host or make tutorials on how exactly to do it.

you also can't distribute, even in a mod/map.

I am not sure there aren't copyrights but I will release it anyway. Cody released gta san adreas tags so me I can do it too.

Copyrights really only apply if you make money on them

well, if ur gona release stuff ripped,
1. give credit to the original source
2. do not sell for profit
3. dont tell ppl how u make em

:P

i cant even explain how funny i found your use of the term "Bread Truck", let alone the fact that you put it in bold.

How is it funny? Explain as good as you can please.
Hilarity is for the win.

have you ever been awake at like 3 or 4 am after getting too little sleep for a week and a half? everything becomes exponentially funnier than it would normally be.

i found it funny for exactly what you described. the prospect of a bread truck requiring all of those things makes me laugh. its like a wonder bread truck driving through the ghetto

Its for zombies guys. I personally have lots of zombie emergency equipment. Its just good planning.

100% Unwrapped.

Explain to me why you needed two separate UV Maps in order to fully unwrap that pelican.

If Halo 1 could do it with only one UV map, why did you need two?


Other than that I can't really give crit, I don't know how to UV map anyway XD

Well, the wings are seen a lot by the player. So I wanted them to have a lot more detail. People moan at me because my UV's don't have consistency, because the shapes are all different sizes.

Well I make parts that the player sees a lot bigger than parts you don't see much at all. And the pelican has a got a lot of parts to it, so I wanted to give all parts a good amount of detail.

For something like a pelican two textures is worth it tbh.

Gotta agree there. What size are the textures BTW?

They can be any size, its not even textured yet.

Actually Halo 1 had two. 1 for the main body and another for the hanger bay.

I know that. I was just wondering what size he plans on making them. I was just wondering if he is considering tag space enough. Wouldn't want to go too big and have 1 tag take up tons of space.

2 bitmaps, even both at 1024x1024, wouldn't take up that much space.

Probably. I just wouldn't take it to the max though is all I am saying. (2048 x 2048) Then that would get big. Would look nice, but be way too big.

player wont even see the pelican tbh

Who says its only going in Penguins map? Maybe it will be used more in another map?

I was working on this bus model, and decided to take it to kick it up another notch, its no where near finished, but still an interesting center piece..... the body is separate from the suspension, axles, wheels, tires, etc. which are all separate on their own.

Back from when I first started, the idea was to make a Pivot-Bus, with a 20-Degree pivoting center. (was pretty neat, till I realized that I wanted something more streamline).



I had then remodeled some of it, and came up with this design, the better looking version, (by the way, its supposed to look like a lightly armored bus, but I changed it up with this design, making it more like a traditional city bus).



Here is the untextured model, I used a box to help light it, so you can see the edges better, just added background and etc. for looks =P.




Again, not finished, but a good start, its for a level I am in designing of now, more to come of the level, and other models as well.

It looks...boxy. Maybe you should take a look at the New Flyer's D40LF for good reference.
