Team Avalanche Main Cast Project
« on: 2010-03-06 03:57:30 »
One of the things on TA's todo list is to have a nice classic style upgrade of the main cast, Thus far Millenia n I made a barret, though stylistically i'd like to alter it a bit. I'll be keeping progress here as the project advances.


Current work - Vincent!

not really... xenobond is working on tifa, my aeris needs to pretty much be started over its so bad, we dont rightly have a cloud model for team avalanche. Barret could be revisited. Cid - not done, but he's on my list. Red13 needz texture, and will b a nightmare to import. Sephi is untouched so yea.... nearly done :P

We could steal the Cloud model from the final Sephiroth battle for the time being, at least until a proper new model is made. Ripping from elsewhere in the same game isn't against the forum rules, right?

Importing Red XIII is less time consuming than you may think...

I want to make it more like the original design, rather than AC, so that'll entail a modification of the mesh to be a bit more... giant. I want to adjust the texture too, just not quite sure how.

Vincent looking great so far, I wonder how hard it will be to do his cape?

Also just out of curiosity, how many human battle models are there in the game?
I can think of Rufus, Palmer, Hojo, and the Turks off the top of my head.

I know I know but this is the original design, not AC style.

 In AC he has a white jacket. by the way, good work with that vincent model  :)

You know, Barret makes me wish I had a gun with infinite ammo grafted onto my arm....

Well, my guess is: either, he hasn't taken his gloves off since the day Dyne "died." Or Marlene puts them on for him. But it is a thing to ponder on. My question is still ho the hell he fires that damn thing? Is there like a trigger tied to on of his tendons? Cause wouldn't that hurt a bit? And I mean, the direct recoil into your nerve endings can't feel good either...

Nearly done, need to model the head, add the belts on his mantle and close the claw, then just do tweaks n stuff... not sure on polycount, havnt figured out how to get maya to output it... i found a poly count button, but its broken i think... does nothing :P

Looks good. Admittedly I don't know anything about the models, but isn't the cape of the one in-game cut similarly?

Do you have texture artists already lined up for all your models? If not I'd like to give one a try.  Assuming you can UV map, since I can't.
Don't have anything recent to show what I can do, just this from a few years ago: Tauren Battlechief

I'm no millenia, of course.

Is that for a wc3 mod or a comp (i saw a bunch of wc comps awhile back n it seems familiar). Alas I wanted to give this model a go myself. HOWEVER, we have a /great/ shortage of texturers, so fear not, there is work for you!

As to the cape, my problem is i'm not sure how it'll go texturing it. It is layed out like it is ingame, so here's hoping... anyhow if ye want texture work add me on msn.

Oh I noticed with the custom models that when you get status ailments like poison, the character doesn't go green, just the weapon does.
Anyone else notice this?

They do change, it's just very subtle.

my guess is it's a texture that is applied to the 3d model. since our models are textured. it can't be applied right, But thats just a guess

Not sure about the poison thing on textured models, hopefully thers a way we can enhance it.

In other news, Vincent is nearing completion. Gotta do the top/back of the head, and a bit of work on the claw, then some optimization.
