As i said...the retailers put the wrong details up for instance for the CPU support saying it supports Pentium D when it didnt even support dual core.

The black Dalek is a Command Dalek.
so yes it is supposed to have that shader my pc should be running again sometime this week so more work will be done possibly a new layout for textures.

Can you make the black one a bit more shiney. Cause right now it looks somewhat like a black blob.

Post once more in this topic crytic and im reporting you to the staff for spamming my thread.

omg he said something totally relevant about your work boohoo he must be a troll. grow up.

he's right, you need to work on your shaders for your black dalek. all the details are difficult to see.

Snafubar you are the one who needs to grow up.
If you had read through the topic the only time crytic has commented was he wanted the Daleks to be more shiney although i have stated that i do not wish my shaders to be mirrors.
I have numerous times requested he quits commenting on how the Daleks need to be shiny and he has not gotten the message so my last resort is i contact a staff member about him spamming my thread.
I realize the black Dalek is is a little dark, but guess what black is dark.
In short Snafubar, read through the topic and realize what the author of the topic was discussing before accusing them off being immature...make's you look ever so slightly foolish and moves away from your usual elegant posting ways.

I think Snafu was right in the sense that technically crytic has broken no rules by posting his comments. However I have noticed that crytic has somewhat "trolled" you with these comments on your shaders not being shiny enough after you specifically told him, politely at first, that you would not be changing them in that way. Still, attacking Snafu's somewhat snippy comment isn't necessary. It simply puts all 3 of you and some form of fault. Personally I like the black up close, but it might look strange from afar.

the bumpy may be because of lack of anti aliasing.
the black dalek is not a battle damaged dalek it is a Dalek commander.

No, I actually meant as in Rusty/Chunk's missing Daleks.

Depends if i really want to go making a new model for a battle damaged Dalek for when they blow up.

warlord · Post by **warlord** » Sat Jan 26, 2008 11:15 am

=Update=
I have made 2 different type of Black shaders lets see which one you lot would prefer.
#1

#2

SnaFuBAR · Post by **SnaFuBAR** » Sat Jan 26, 2008 11:31 am

I think #2 is better. It seems to show the details a lot better than #1. Also, look a the "skirts" on the daleks. You see how there's a bunch of screwed up faces? You need to learn something; how to properly triangulate your mesh. you might also want to smooth each face INDIVIDUALLY after that, and that would make it nice.

warlord · Post by **warlord** » Sat Jan 26, 2008 11:41 am

Yeah i know.
Once ive got 3ds max installed on my pc again il be finishing up the model seeing as i just grabbed all my files from my modding pc this morning.
Though i need to grab a copy of vista 32bit seeing as my current pentium 4 wont allow 64bit vista to run.

Cryticfarm · Post by **Cryticfarm** » Sat Jan 26, 2008 11:46 am

Yayz, there shiny enough now. And yesm work on fixing your faces, I see tons of non-planars.
