lol k

I love the containers and the truck in the yard

It really has that freight yard feeling now

Well no pics this post, all I can say is I got a suprise coming that's gonna blow you all away, and Brian don't spill the nachos eh?

B-24 Alex made for the WW2 Bat team, working on making it into an automa, thinking about bringing several old team projects back

Wow! That is an advanced model, I am not sure if it can be converted, as it may have too high of a poly count.


Looks great though!

What about dropping the guns, the cockpit detail, the tail connector to the body, the flaps on top of the engine?

Oh wow! What a great picture!

Great work Rocky

We'll have to see

Lets hope so, as this thing is great!

@Matt: If you read the desciption it ain't my work, Alex (lightingrabbit) Gets all the credit on it.

And alright Frex, I replied to your pm

I successfully got the model into 3ds Max with ease, but there are some poly count issues:

The Model: 33396

Most Recommended Automata Poly Range: 300-1700
----------

We have some serious poly reducing to do.

Oh God... Well there is a lot of detail we can get rid of... for example cockpit? Meh I'm sure you can find the places

Anyway thanks frex!

Yikes on the polys.

Also, are you guys gonna change the main white texture? It looks pretty white as is, and SC4 turns the contrast waaaay up, so it'll appear whiter in game.

I would like to throw it down to like a silver bare metal texture because as you said, SC4 is gonna make it way brighter and stuff in game so, I had planned to make it a gray

Grey/silver will look just fine! Maybe with some rust or wear on it, as well.

Edit: For example, the original Sketchup preview looked fine.

Wow great work!

Wow, I'm proud of that

Well, I now have reduced some of the polys (Hopefully) Anyway, I'm gonna message Frex, and hopefully get this B-24 back underway!

Hey rocky, I had an idea today, but waited to state it becuase I wanted to check the poly count. It still is over at 27,700, but here is what I was thinking.

My idea was, and Brian, and Tiger approved, was to take the original model, and export it as a regular prop, then, me and Tiger work together on an automata version to use as that. A detailed on is what we are planning, I was just needing your thoughts on this?

~Clayton

Sure, I'm game with that idea.

So I have now rendered the B-24 as a prop and it is in the Lot Editor, here is a pic suggetions are welcome!

wow rocky !

A big step for you today with the glorious B-24 .
It looks like things are now progressing fine with this.
Creating a working prop was the first main step,
in this project.

Congrats ! , Brian

Wow, it is looking really good, nice work!

That plane is nice and detailed.

Looking forward to the release!
