Twisted Vertex Posted July 13, 2002 Share Posted July 13, 2002 whats the poly count on that bad ass. Look cool. Well are you able to get it in game with out a skin?...Well as far as it being pixlated, i think your problem lies how your paiting the skin.... To big of a mapp on a little saber. What canvas/ image size are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Shawn Posted July 13, 2002 Share Posted July 13, 2002 The polygon counter is on the last tab of the toolbar on the right of the screen in Gmax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardcoreTaco Posted July 13, 2002 Author Share Posted July 13, 2002 thanks, i found it.. er.. i dunno if this number is good or bad.. 4372.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commodus Posted July 13, 2002 Share Posted July 13, 2002 That's a bit too much I think - a player model at highest LOD is 3k polys.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horrorz2002 Posted July 13, 2002 Share Posted July 13, 2002 Sabers are supposed to be about 1k polies.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardcoreTaco Posted July 13, 2002 Author Share Posted July 13, 2002 i need more help once agian.. i need MD3 Viewer.. and if possible, are there any other wars to make glm files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Chrono_MOT- Posted July 14, 2002 Share Posted July 14, 2002 Go download the JK2 dev tools kit. It has everything you need. 1.) sabers should never exceed 1000 vertices. 2.) sabers should never exceed 1200 polys (just to keep things fast, and because they're small!) I'm not sure what you mean by your skin being off and pixelated. It sounds like you haven't mapped your model yet, which is definitely something you need to do before skinning it.

HardcoreTaco Posted July 14, 2002 Author Share Posted July 14, 2002 i didn't get it in the dev kit, i got 4 tools, and two didn't work.. the ones that did work are the personality thing.. and the special fx one, and that one has amillion pop ups when i open it up, theres no MD3viewer..

Ansible Posted July 14, 2002 Share Posted July 14, 2002 Yea, I know, Raven is capable of making a kick ass game like Jedi Knight II, but they can't even make a decent layout for their site. Of and the saber looks kick ass man! Keep up the great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
