Title: Devestation (re-render)
Post by: Taristin on November 16, 2001, 09:29:00 pm: A fixed version of the original, with metter bump mapping, and some smooth-quad dividing. I think it looks pretty sweet. Probably my best render ever. Sad, huh? Oh, and it's probably spelled wrong, but who cares? Not me.

I know there is a method, but all I see is madness.

Post by: Setekh on November 17, 2001, 03:27:00 am: I think the Deimos' reflectivity has to be reduced, or the particles have to be increased in brightness. IMHO the two are incongruous (one is not bright enough for the other).

That said, the render is beautiful as ever. You set your standards damn high, and that's good. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

I'll lower the shine of the metal, re-render it, and if anyone wants a special sized one, I'll render it for them. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Post by: Sandwich on November 18, 2001, 04:09:00 am: Yeah, lower the reflectivity on that Deimos - It had molybendum (ask Ace... (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/rolleyes.gif) ) armour, not mirrors! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Nice job, dude. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
