I'm not going in depth on Tecmo hacking, no lawsuits, but I have yet to see someone get them, but research is being done.

Nah...they thought it'd just be fine to leave it the way it was...you know, with it being a completely new console/engine/game.

It's much better looking, but neato Tural. Now get one of him in the space Teletubbie outfit. >_>

Jean's bump and I had help on the materials. =P
I really just wanted to see how accurate I could get color-wise to ingame.

Edit:
The pose isn't anything. I'd say it looks like John finally found his old air guitar...

Quick 40min-1hr Drawing I did in photoshop. Quite old. I was happy with it.

Decent.

GametagAeonFlux · Post by **GametagAeonFlux** » Thu Aug 03, 2006 1:31 pm

A lot of things in that seem...out of proportion.

And the SMG's a little funky. But like Tural said, it's decent.

Thanks. It was done without ref, so it was bound to be kinda screwy.

Here is a render of zanzibar that I did with Hdri+30 passes of DOF.

Here is just a regular render with Hdri.

Chief looks kinda dull.

I think it's the armor color...

Do you know how many weeks that would take to render on my notebook?
Actually, probably just 1 hour, then it would die before even getting to the render itself.

it really wouldnt take that long at all, the dof makes it take longer, but my computer can do it and its a four year old piece of crap. i gotta get a new comp soon.

He did HDRI and most likely didn't put an Omni light in there. That means that he only had a skylight, which makes the Chief look horrible.

Go try it yourself. Go render an MC with just a skylight.

I just added a target spot with shadow, along with the sky light so the bumpis now seen and it looks better. I am animating a 150 frame animation 800x600 that is taking 8hr+. it will be done tomorrow and i will post it. Its looking good so far

needs a sky, it would look MUCH more realistic with reflections from a sky

qft, that and the reflections are offset by the alpha. however, that visor is super sexy.

Also, your Zanzibar diffuse maps are wrong, some need to be flipped vertically upon extracton with Entity.

drewboi · Post by **drewboi** » Mon Aug 07, 2006 1:09 am

the light on your render messes it up..... try changing the lighting and it will look alot better.
