Major Clod Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 [EDIT] Hey all, just letting you know that my Tusken Raider is finally available for download. Jediknightii.net It should be up at JK2files.com soon too. Enjoy! [/EDIT] I've started working on a Tusken Raider player model. There are some shots of it below. I will most likely include a Gaderffi Stick replacement for the lightsaber with the model. Skinned front view Skinned back view Faceted front view Faceted back view The model itself is virtually finished. All that remains now is a few skin touch ups, and to assign it to the skeleton. I have already done a few quick weighting tests before I mapped the mesh so that I know it will deform properly. This is always a good thing to do when creating models. As always, let me know what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emon Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 By the way, are you going to add LODs this time? You don't have to remodel the whole thing, 3DSM has an opimizer which reduces it's polys. Do a search in the help for optimizer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Clod Posted July 12, 2002 Author Share Posted July 12, 2002 I will try to get LOD's in this time. Multi-res is the best tool for the job, it is far better than the optimise tool. The reason I did not include LOD's in my previous models is because so many of the vertices were hand weighted. I did not have the time nor do I particularly fell like weighting the mesh 3 times over. However the Tusken Raiders baggy clothing supports the envelopes in the Skin tool much better than my previous models, so it is simply a matter of saving the envelopes and reloading them for each LOD. I try to go back to Jar Jar sometime soon and add LOD's, its just it isn't the most interesting of tasks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

defalc Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 Clod, you freaking RULE! :D:D You are a damn awesome modeler! That tusken looks awesome! For sounds, the taunt has GOT to be that 'Raawg!' Yelling warcry they make! The rest might be tricky though. As for the CTF skins, what are they gonna look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomad Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 Hurray!! Another major Clod Model, A Classic, Needed Character Model, And best of all... An amazing peice of work!! Thank you so much, Major. A possibly good source for tusken raider sounds could be from the The Masters Of Tera Kesai playstation game. Just in case you need some pain sounds that you cannot find. Just give a shout if you need any help in that area, but knowing the work you've done in the past, you're probably fine on your own. -nomad MTFBWY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
els.DarkLord Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 Just wanted to add to all the praises GREAT work. It's really appreciated what you do for this community I'd say i love your work... your jar jar was so real, his sounds are so.... annoying *g* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(IK) Lucifer Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 CRAP! I just started one 2 days ago! It will be done soon, skins and all, the only saving grace is that mine is tailored specifically for Sharad and A'Sharad Hett. Kick ass though! Thanks for yet another new model! How do you do that so fast anyway? I bet you have some top secret ultra time saving techniques. lol Or a time machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
