krazyammo · Post by **krazyammo** » 21 Oct 2006, 00:32

Can i have your lambo t3ice?

t3ice · Post by **t3ice** » 21 Oct 2006, 07:49

Hey thanx guys...its really easy once u get the hang of it..no biga deal

@Haz : I havent used any tutorial for this car mate....

Although I havent yet perfected the use of vray...Anyways if u need a tut for
3dsmax that i used to make those earlier cars...u can visit www.cg-cars.com
Although u will need to register there...also , after registering u can look
at other ppls WIPs.. and get an idea on how those guys do it...u can also
post ur own model and ask for any problems u are facing

@ Krazy...Yeah sure...I'll only charge ya 75$ for the model ..and 20$ extra
along with the materials..LOL

Nah I was jk....sure u can have it

EDIT : I would have posted WIP earlier..but I couldnt access this site...

Hah, sorry my bad. I've seen lots of tutorials using the Gallardo. Guess I shouldn't jump to conclusions, eh?

t3ice · Post by **t3ice** » 22 Oct 2006, 09:50

Hmm..can u give some links..cuz I could really do with a tut for the Gallardo's rims the'are real killer

Hey u should try 3dsmax too...its a little trickey at first ..but ull get the hang of it soon enough..also there are lot of good render plugins available for it...

Anyways..its a littlle stupid to ask this question here ( cuz i doubt many have a clue what im talking about ) but...does anyone know how to make a transparent NON refracting material using vray

i must say, these 3d stuff you guys are making are amazing =))))
I've been 'playing' around with Rhino 3D quite a while and well i never really got into it since last week. I found it hard to create a car in the first place but i'm getting there =)
I haven't really made any perfect cars yet, mainly ehm... models that look quite alright to my view but i want to do better.

Lets see if i got some screenshots of what i have made recently...
ok found them but they are a bit big, so i hope i wont get in trouble with this

t3ice · Post by **t3ice** » 26 Oct 2006, 06:32

IF thats ur first ever try...then im gonna firetrucking shoot myself..

thats really good mate...sorta looks like the BMW M6..

Vimenze · Post by **Vimenze** » 26 Oct 2006, 22:20

it's based on the M6 indeed =)
It's my first official try, i have played before like i said, but this time i just tried to finish it.
I'm kinda looking for some new car... but onces that are quite easy in build =)

God I wish I was that good at my first try with modeling cars, I'm on my 30th try and I still haven't accomplished anything worth posting. Good job.

Vimenze · Post by **Vimenze** » 27 Oct 2006, 17:15

I have used Rhino for it... and it took me a while to understand and figure out how i can do it best... It takes time but i bet you'll find a way for yourself that you can work with

I have seen many tutorials on the web and most of them were just plain odd... Then i followed a simpler one and it helped me with the basics, the rest is plainly doing what i know of. Also dragging points and adding and cutting and slicing and copying and mirroring and lofting and etc.etc.etc. are basic stuff so it's in the end, easy... it just takes time and vision =)

I've been working on a weapon today for the mod i'm working on... it's called an EP8 Rifle (made up name). It's basically supposed to be a beefed up tranquiliser gun that is designed to fire darts filled with a drug known as EP8 that induces fear and paranoia in the victim making them attack anything that moves.

Use this weapon against an enemy and that enemy will begin shooting his/her own team mate.

All is left to do is the texturing and animating, before exporting it into HL2. Once that is done I'll try to show you guys a little video clip if i can

Comments and crits are welcome

Awesome stuff Ibi, and I'm certainly looking forward to this video clip

korge · Post by **korge** » 20 Dec 2006, 04:59

... cerebral Corrupt ehh? Not bad looking gun either.. Would spend more time on that scope. .Looks like the bit to a nut.

Sir Ibi · Post by **Sir Ibi** » 20 Dec 2006, 05:03

How do you mean Korge? What part of the scope doesn't look good?

scopes never look good. Doesnt look round is all.

boganbusman · Post by **boganbusman** » 20 Dec 2006, 05:11

Well you can't help having low polys on a game model

Sir Ibi · Post by **Sir Ibi** » 20 Dec 2006, 05:15

ah i see your point... Well it will look much rounder anyway when I throw in good dolup of normal mapping

.

btw thanks for ze comments.

xHaZxMaTx · Post by **xHaZxMaTx** » 20 Dec 2006, 06:08

I get what Korge is saying, the scope looks unnecessarily low-poly in comparison to the rest of the model. Like when comparing it to the barrel or the little (what I'm assuming to be) the little canister of condensed gas of some sort. Each of which has 12 sides, while the scope only has 8. Those 4 extra sides make that much of a difference.

korge · Post by **korge** » 24 Dec 2006, 00:06

Ok.. Wtf. How do you guys render your objects to where it looks so good?

xHaZxMaTx · Post by **xHaZxMaTx** » 24 Dec 2006, 00:17

I seem to recall people mentioning downloadable plug-ins and what not to get desired effects.

t3ice · Post by **t3ice** » 24 Dec 2006, 13:30

U get..er i mean BUY renderers or whatever u call them .eg vray, mental ray, povray..etc

Sir Ibi · Post by **Sir Ibi** » 24 Dec 2006, 19:34

mental ray (which coincidently is also the name of my golfish) comes with 3ds max already. Just search for mental ray rendering tutorials

korge · Post by **korge** » 24 Dec 2006, 22:19

My first ever real project..
