winner_rex Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 What do you guys think? I need help skinning it, I'm okay at skinning but not good enough to make this Y-Wing look like a...Y-wing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klorel Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 looks pretty nice. might consider smoothing out some polygons though, just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winner_rex Posted May 26, 2002 Author Share Posted May 26, 2002 I took the screenshot without smoothing, heres a smoothed one... http://home.adelphia.net/~nraec1/ywing2.jpg these icons are too much fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VEGETA2K1 Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 its to basic.. u can see lots of the basic primitives.. not much shape to them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xiin Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 so who cares : it looks great, almost real (if it would be skinned ) what's wrong with using basics if it looks so great? I can't c what could be replaced by other things then basics, exept maybe the cannons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winner_rex Posted May 26, 2002 Author Share Posted May 26, 2002 thanks, xiin. Please realize that I have to take things into consideration, namely polycount. It's at about 1900 right now, and I don't think much more is necessary (except maybe for the cannons, you were right on that one guys). I made it in a small amount of time, and a lot of the detail would require a good skin. If I made a billion little widgets out of boxes and cylinders I would get flames to the effect of OMG WTF ITS SO SLOW WHATS UP WIHT TAHT?! Anyway...Anyone want to skin this puppy?

Pedantic Posted May 26, 2002 Share Posted May 26, 2002 It looks great except for the crossbar attaching the engines to the main body looks...well, boxy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StClair Posted May 27, 2002 Share Posted May 27, 2002 It's supposed to be 'boxy' - a simple 3D rectangle - but not nearly that thick. For reference screenshots of an excellent Y-wing model, check out this page: http://www.xwaupgrade.com/screenshots/y-wing/y-wing.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winner_rex Posted June 13, 2002 Author Share Posted June 13, 2002 lol, i'm not sure why this was bumped...but ok. I am moving into the field of mapping, if anyone would like the Y-Wing MS3D file to work with, I'd be happy to give it to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
