Title: Models awaiting texturing
Post by: IPAndrews on June 02, 2005, 04:20:39 am

Here is a list of texturing jobs requiring the attention of a 2D artist. If you pick up one of these jobs please make a post here so everyone knows. Similarly, if you complete a job (or give up on it) post here also.

If you don't have access to the FTP and model dump directory I mal or ICQ transfer the appropriate archive to you.

Narn Station (Coming of Shadows)

Guidelines:

* Textures do not need to be square but the width and height of files must both be powers of 2 (eg: 2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512)
* BMP is the preferred format as that can be converted by us to whatever format is being used by the mod at the time.
* Texture files my be up to 1024 wide or high.
* Please use as few texture files as possible.

I'm going to try and get you some help in the texturing dept. There may be a few ships on this list by the time I've finished going through modeldump.

Was going through my hd today and there is a finished poseidon supercarrier (lod0) there and also 75% complete octurion (lod0) aswell.

Ok, I'd like to give it a shot. But no promises.  ;)

This my first non-original texture...

Just seen that, nice job. It'll now need LODs.

Hmm, the Vree Xill. Should be easy enough for the start.
Where is the UV map?

In the model dump on the FTP. If you can't access that give me your email address and I'll mail it to you. Also a little hint which will make sense if you look at any reference material. Use 24 not 25. Numbers which are divisible by 2 are helpful and nobody will notice the difference.

I think the model has a small problem. Well, hopefully it's just a smoothing problem.

Ignore it. We'll see if it's obvious when the thing is fully textured and in-game. If it is - well it's still no extra work for you. It's up to me to fix.

normally id re-apply the materianl to that section and all adjacent polies, if it still looks whack, check the uv map. little blemishes like this usually drive me into a psyco mode.

The UV will be perfect. I'm pretty good at uv mapping these days. I'll try reapplying the material once I get the textured model back from DaBrain. Thanks for the hint.
