Mav Posted March 19, 2005 Author Share Posted March 19, 2005 I'm going to answer your questions, but from now on I'm goign to ask that you either PM me with your questions, or create a different thread for them, just so I can keep this thread about my W.I.P., thanks. Okay now on to your questions. 1. use cylindrical mapping and I check the box that says "capped", but I don't know if I need to or not... lol 2. I select different sections of my hilt and map them seperately, for example, I may have the shaft of the hilt seperated into 4 or 5 different sections based on how many extrudes I used and planar map them. If there are areas that need detail, such as the tribal design on my hilt above, then I select it poly by poly and planar map them, and detach the polys, I only detach whatever I do in detail. 3. Nope, I just make the saber and the cylinder UVmap it bit fitting the Uvmap to the Z axis, I think you know what I mean Hope that helps, Mav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelScum! Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Originally posted by maverick187 Update Here is a little in-game collage type thing, and the release date is not set because I have decided to make a double saber hilt for it and the short saber hilt will be the same hilt, just on a short saber. Anway on to the screenie: In-game Teaser - 122kb @ Shadow Blaze Thanks for the name , and you can download it when its avaliable, but I'm building a doublesaber hilt for Darkkender, for one of his mods, I don't even know what it is really.... lol Mary Mother of Mayhem!

General Kenobi Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Now if I had that Bette Midler song Wind Beneath My Wings I'd play it..lol MAV, that's inspiring man. KILLER saber I'm wiping drool to get at this thang :) Very talented man to have come up with a "dookuesk" style saber thats very far from the dooku hilt itself.

Shadow Blaze Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Thanks Mav I will try that. Sorry for posting that in here I'll post in a new topic from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mav Posted March 19, 2005 Author Share Posted March 19, 2005 Update Just a quick little update, the curved hilt above, "Megido" will not be released for a while sorry guys and gals . Right now I need to finish up a doublesaber I'm working on, then make a doublesaber model to compliment "Megido", so it may take a while, but I will be pushing a deadline of less than a week, but it will probably be less than that Mav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkkender Posted March 19, 2005 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Well what ever it looks like Mav I think that "Megido's" sister double saber should be named "Muramasa" as suggested by Shadow Blaze for a saber name. It too has a good ring and seems to go well as names go with "Megido". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mav Posted March 20, 2005 Author Share Posted March 20, 2005 @ DarthSmallz Your sig is rather lengthy, could you possibly shorten it? Now for the real reason for this post. okay so I built half of my double saber model.. Uv'd it and appliexd the texture, then I mirrored and cloned it, and the texture held up fine, but as soon as I attached the two seperate parts the texture just fell apart and went all over the place, is there an easy solution, if not I may just have to UV the thing after I mirror and clone.

Mav Posted March 21, 2005 Author Share Posted March 21, 2005 Update Well these are really just to tease you, because I have no idea when this will be released, it is a new double saber model meant to look similar to this saber model I released for K1 and has been ported over for Darkkender's mod which is when this new doublesaber model will be released. Anyway on to the screenies: gmax screen - 171kb In-Game Screenie - 68kb (White Robes by RedHawke; Echani Head by Darth Melignous) Comments only this time, well I guess you could suggest, but it wouldn't matter Darkkender's word is final on this one Mav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Kenobi Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Mav, From what I see in the screenies this looks awesome Can't wait till I'm slicing through Sith with this bad boy Killer Design Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkkender Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Darkkender's word is I shall endeavor to get everything thrown together quickly.

Mav Posted March 22, 2005 Author Share Posted March 22, 2005 Update OKay I finally have a model I am...... satisfied with showing, to all of you for your harsh, honest opinions, come on just let me have it... lol. Okay, but seriously tell me what you all think about this: "Muramasa" W.I.P. - 77kb Well that is it, so far there are a few things I am probably going to change, for example the middle of the hilt, it just looks odd to me thats all . Well anyway give me your honest opinions, there is still lots of room for change Mav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorden Darkblade Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 It looks very very good, but I think that the name Muramasa fits more a single saber. Since Muramasa is the name of real swords. That's just what I think tho I'm not very bright concerning modelling so I will ask, is that the final color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mav Posted March 22, 2005 Author Share Posted March 22, 2005 nope not the final color and I have no idea what the name means... LOL I just got a suggestions for it so that is what it is, but it just as everything is liable to change , I feel another name contest coming.....

Shadow Blaze Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 nope not the final color and I have no idea what the name means...

I don't know what it means either... and I thought of it lol. Well I have a few games with names for swords in it and one is Murasame I just altered it a bit.

Shadow Blaze Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Deviator (feel free to put "The" in the front of this) Kaltos Asuka Dragon Buster Double Flare Those are some names for now. Like before if you don't like any of them I can think of more. But for now those are the only names I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mav Posted March 25, 2005 Author Share Posted March 25, 2005 Update Here is a gmax screen with the basic texture. Basic meaning that, the final product will look almost exactly the same, except the gray will be metallic and the black will have a slight sheen, as usual, also the main black shaft will have a tribal design similar to that on the "Megido" single hilt. Well this is just a preview, tell me if I should throw it in the recycling bin or wether I should finish it , on to the show... gmax screenshot Mav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
