did a little work on the mono drone
that one is based on the original model but i alterd bits and made them fit togeather better and changed parts about

this one i made from scratch as with the other one the textures dont have to be whats on someone else might have to do them

Right now I like the second one better but they would both benefit from s re-texture.

I still can't get over how great that background looks even without textures.

My vote is keep the borders, though.

Also, as cool as "external texture" looks for the limit flames, I think I like the good ol' orange color better.

Dude sweetness!

I agree with all of ObeseBears points.

What I dont get is in the description it says "Testing whatever scope and tail laser" I didnt notice them looking any different from normal.

Lol, at external limit break. Gives me ideas for hilarity in game. Imagine if you put ecchi pics into the limit break

sl1982 · « **Reply #306 on:** 2010-06-04 05:05:08 »

Ignore the borders and external texture things. My ff7 is half broken with all the stuff i test out.

And the tail laser and search scope are updated. Put youtube in hd and compare to the originals

alloy · « **Reply #307 on:** 2010-06-04 05:41:18 »

Something id like to submit around here

I have it running ingame but don't feel like getting pics at this time lol

The game model is really simple and since i cant find any concept art for it, I made my own changes.
Im still revising the design a bit. The tentacles are gonna change.

Also the texture is a very wip placeholder im not good at that, but i have an idea of what im gonna try to do with it

Touph Guy · « **Reply #308 on:** 2010-06-04 06:22:53 »

Why does the centre look like a candy cane?

alloy · « **Reply #309 on:** 2010-06-04 07:17:52 »

That's how it really looks like lol. The model has really dark lighting ingame also its really small so you can barely notice it.

See here

With the right texture I think that will look really good. No real criticism here.

I still can't really comment the background.
All things are and stuff but without glows and reflections like the original one will be hard, for me, to say if it'll be better.

As for the borderless windows i kinda liked it.
Somehow reminded me of:

- FF VI
- FF VIII reminded me mainly of this one.
- FF IX

Maybe something can be done on this in the future. Maybe in some other mod..

As for the Mono Drive, this was the one i liked the most, although it might need some rework on the tentacles:

Quote from: antcoley on 2010-06-01 17:00:46

Mainly a rework on the tentacles near the "orb" to look more like the original and not so "edgy".
The textures is a bit off too although i like it.

The last one kinda looks like a bug with a candy sting $:-\$

obesebear · « **Reply #312 on:** 2010-06-04 15:38:58 »

Haha, ok, well I think the search scope looks really good, as does the blast from the tail laser. My only problem is the tail laser still leaving those after effects, I think it makes it look worse. Is that a texture too?

sl1982 · « **Reply #313 on:** 2010-06-04 17:51:06 »

Are you referring to the flat bottom of the blast? I took a look at it and it was glitched by another test i was doing. This is how it should look.

obesebear · « **Reply #314 on:** 2010-06-04 18:23:02 »

No not at all. What I mean is, as the laser is being fired you actually see 4 lasers on the screen. A "laser residue" if you will.

Is that a separate texture or something FF7 does automatically? If it's automatic, it might look better if a second laser was added in the texture. The "residue" makes it look bad in my opinion. If you post it, I can show you what I mean.

sl1982 · « **Reply #315 on:** 2010-06-04 18:27:22 »

As far as i know the laser itself (as well as the fading trails) are 3d models, and not textured. I can take a look around and see if i can find something, but I am not sure what we could do with it.

obesebear · « **Reply #316 on:** 2010-06-04 18:30:20 »

Must be the magic.lgp. I'll take a look at it tonight and see what I can come up with

sl1982 · « **Reply #317 on:** 2010-06-04 21:26:09 »

First place to look would be magic.lgp/ff7/data/special/scorp/

edit: there is a rsd file in there for the laser. Not sure what you would do to change it though.

Hi all - progress is looking great! Just wanted to check in to let you know I'm still working on things (nmkin_3 & nmkin_4), but I've been pretty busy recently with moving to Spain and haven't had a lot of time to do anything. Also I've decided to take a step back and really learn how to use Maya seen as jumping straight in from Sketchup was a bit over my head. If anyone uses Sketchup and Maya together please can you give me some help importing sketchup files into Maya - I've searched around and I just can't seem to get it right. If not I'll prob have to just follow sl and just start from scratch in Maya. Anyway, it's great to see the project is still moving forwards!

P.S. - SpooX - your modeling is inspiring!

obesebear · « **Reply #319 on:** 2010-06-07 17:35:22 »

Dang, still haven't looked at the scorpion laser yet. Give me an hour or so to mess with it and see if I can do anything.

Hey just a quick question. Are you guys going to be doing the whole game? Like, right now you're working on Bombing mission. After that are you going to be working on Sector 7, then Number 5 reactor, etc. ?

sl1982 · « **Reply #322 on:** 2010-06-07 22:21:43 »

That is the plan. Who knows, we may get tired of it before that. That is why we are splitting it up into manageable sections of the game.

AlbusJC · « **Reply #323 on:** 2010-06-07 22:47:35 »

by the way, what about potions, treasure chests and green materia appear on the bombing mission? will be remade as well?

DarkFang · « **Reply #324 on:** 2010-06-07 23:05:27 »

Hey sl1982, why don't you update the first post?
