Wanted to try out some hard edge surfaces in zBrush, 512 maps (normal, spec, diffuse etc..) and a 9 poly model...

low quality jpegs...

Cool, I could definately use a few of those in my map... Hopefully we will see them in the next PR release?

That's nice....
Are you going to make some with no bullet damage as well ?

i always jsut use the nvidia plug in for normal maps

ops:

we don't have Z brush in the lab just yet. were supposed to be getting them on the high end machines.

That texture looks amazing...
Nice work...

How long did that take, cause its probably less polys and definitely nicer looking than the ones we have now!

Thanks guys, I actually updated the colors now to make it a little more unique...

re: zbrush, wasn't necessary for this model, was just bored, so you could do the same in photoshop with some brushes and nvidia.

re: time, whole thing took about an hour and a half.. but it's probably not all too suitable for bf2 since it doesn't make use of multitexturing.

re: others, won't be making anymore I don't think, this was more practice.

can you create them to be destroyable?

So we can simulate blocked street and cleared way?

You should make a version without the stop sign so the mapper could make a wall with them and place the stop sign in the middle ... ?

DJJ-Terror · Post by **DJJ-Terror** » 2007-03-07 18:53

Yeah, defenetly shud one version be clean, withouth stop sign, couse it will look silly to set couple of them in the line and all of them have a stop sign.

This was a practice piece guys. By all means I can give you the decals, but you'll need to apply the textures yourself via multitexturing (i.e. decals etc.). Otherwise you're using 5 barriers x 3 maps (diff, spec, norm) x 512x512 sized sheets. That's 15 sheets, when you can use 4.

really nice texturing, don't see why it shouldnt get ingame (couple of dxt1 512 maps isnt too big) & it could be a destroyable that gets completely pwned by tank rounds/c4 so no need for a wreck model.

DJJ-Terror · Post by **DJJ-Terror** » 2007-03-07 23:30

Yeah, no wreck model will do just fine!
