[AnimalMother.]

wow that looks awesome!!!!


i'd also like to know about the chinook and the M60 i've seen photos of them on the back ramp.

welcome back rudd

[Salmonella]

hey folks, I'm back, I just did the smoothing, a the UV map

I saw that topic about the mk19, and tried to use that colored checker, but I don't see how it helps to see the errors!?!
I mean, I tried hard to make the squares remain squares, but it never will be seamless, its impossible to make all lines be aligned, and that colored stuff makes my eye burn afater a few minutes...

I tried to increase the density around the first person view, and where I gonna use heavy normal maps and transparency, like in the forehand grip, bipod, stock and trigger

[Salmonella]

after several hours remaking the UVs, finally I could apply the normals to give a High poly feeling...

[Tomato-Rifle]

I love the m60! It looks good!

[Hauteclocque]

Really impressive, can you give us a tri count ?

[AnimalMother.]

this makes it into game and i'm gonna attempt to use it 24/7

nothing to do with the character that my name is after

[Salmonella]

the tricount dropped by 400 from the last screen, Is now 6100, cause I removed some mirroring and tilling.
I'm still working on the UVs to make the ambient occlusion work properly...

Ps, oh **** I just realized that I forgot the ammo box!

Are you going to do a high poly bake?

[Salmonella]

Are you going to do a high poly bake?

no, this is the low poly with hand made normals.

here's the Ambient Occlusion only.

[Adriaan]

That's some reaally nice modelling! I love it, and ofcourse the M60 is just badass

[FelipeFR]

So, the M60 model is complete or at least almost complete, right? What about the textures?

[Gunner_downer]

This looks neat. Nice work!

[motherdear]

could we get a uv sheet pic please. kinda hard to see if it is optimized properly when we only see the model with a checker material

[Chuc]

Great work so far on the weapon, we might pick this one up at a later stage for use elsewhere

[Maxfragg]

hm, else where, where else could a M60 be used?
i guess on US helicopters its been replaced with the M240B all over,so where could you use it

[robbie3211]

the back ramp of a chinook maybe
Or we could do a ' Back to 'Nam ' event hueys with mounted m60's ftw!

I still have to learn how texture it, so be patient...

Here it goes, first the UV with gay colors :lol

then showing the overlaps in red (mirrored parts)

and the model "dressed" with the first gay colors

and these 2 checkers for size comparison

[H.sta]

Holy... you work fast

if you have time anytime soon me and the Norwegian Forces could really use some help

[motherdear]

looks good what is the plan with the handle ?, it looks like you might have a bit of an obvious texture seam. but looking a pictures of the gun there is a normal map on the part just below it. but might be a good idea to connect it together.
lovely uvw though (from my POV)

Perhaps for the U.S. patrol boat, or as an addition to the PKM for the ARF/ Insurgents/ Taliban (?)
