The modeler of the - unofficial - Brazilian COMFAC have done quite a lot of work in quite few time, and because of that, the work he done may not be all good, so this is why I'm here today, to ask you guys for some help, so he can properly finish the models.

Agrale Marrua - Transport Version

p3d.in - marruatrans

Agrale Marrua - Recon Version

p3d.in - marruarecon

VBTP-MR Guarani - External Model

p3d.in - guaraniext

VBTP-MR Guarani - Interior Model

p3d.in - guaraniint

IMBEL IA-2

p3d.in - falIA2556

Something that is making me a little worried is the Z-Fighting, perhaps some of you guys could point exactly how he can fix it.

Other than that, there's nothing that I can see as this is not my sector, so I hope you guys can help, he done all these models in 6 months, so I think that he got potential.

Looks pretty good, but are quite a few errors to clean up.

Ye I saw a lot of zfighting on all the models... Basically what causes zfighting is two faces, facing the same way that occupy the same space or are very close to each other.
Z-fighting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

To fix it, just only have one face occupying a single area, and the best way to do this is a lot of cases is to weld things up, which also saves on UV space.


Your APC 1p model should also not have the outer walls of the APC in it.

But the outer walls of the APC are not on it, the modeler took the AAV7 interior model as reference when doing this, so he wouldn't do anything wrong.

If you're mentioning what I'm thinking, those are part of the details from inside, that stayed pulled in.

Nice work. Have you thought anything about maps? I'm guessing custom statics and texture would be needed?

I though something in the past, but I have no time to do it. And yeah, we gonna need some custom statics, the other team had some done, but it seems that it's all lost.

Nice! Me like.

Some pics of what Rhino told about.






These "over edges" can be easily repaired by selecting [edge], [Edit Edges] and from bottom [Turn].

A quick update:

p3d.in - ImbelIa2new

He re-made everything from scratch. The darkish gray parts are not welded for animation purposes. Also, I've seen no more Z-Fighting.

And more

p3d.in - marruatrans

p3d.in - marruarecon2

Looking good but your roll bar needs to be welded up, clipping though isn't a good idea as it will cause quite a bit of zfighting, will allow the length ways bits to be the same size as the width ways and will also mean you don't have that face sticking out the top of the front roll bar, as well as allowing you to potentially pack your UVs a lot better

thanks Rhino

thanks

looking awesome, looking good!

keep up the good work and let's see what else we can do

Can you take a pic showing those? I don't quite understand about modeling and the modeler said that there are none.

Quick update:

Now I have a question, some time ago, I saw a guy modeling the Protector RWS in order to put it some Dutch vehicles I think, should the modeler then make the gun system on the Guarani as a separated object to be linked via code?

I am the guy. What RWS are you using on your vehicles?

It's a Brazilian one called REMAX, it's quite new and being made (primarily) for the Guarani, there isn't much information about it unfortunately.

According to Wikipedia (I know it's an unreliable source), it have FLIR and nigh vision, as well as some zoom.

Edit: duplicate post

Well that doesnt have anything in common with M151 Protector I have made, so I cant help you with that...
