Models by X-Dina (Satoh)
Satoh:
Ok so... I spent a few days messing around in Maya with what was a long long time ago, Sephiroth, and when I was done, almost none of the original mesh was left in it's original form and this was the result... I think it turned out well.
I would love to release it... but since parts of Square's models were used (albeit no longer intact) I can't... However... I am seriously considering making a new one from scratch for that very purpose...
Anyway here is the question for you all... What next? I'm considering doing a remake of all the weapons... but I don't know yet...
Matt2Tees:
Can I just ask a quick question... How does Maya differ from 3ds Max, they are both Autodesk programs correct?
Kudistos Megistos:
Oooo, this looks nice. I'm gonna keep an eye on it.
Let's see now, Millenia and slayersnext have been doing Cloud's swords, slayersnext has also done Aeris' weapons and (bearing in mind that he's done a lot of work on guns before) Millenia might be thinking of doing Vincent's weapons. Perhaps Someone like Cid (maybe?) could do with some nioce weapon models...
Satoh:
Hmm... Spears are a simple project with a lot of room for interpretation... I'll go with that and see what I can manage.
As for Maya vs Max, they were originally owned by Alias Wavefront and Discreet, before both companies were bought by Autodesk.
So essentially they are completely differing programs. I was trained in Maya at my college, though previously I had been using Max. Maya has a slightly steeper learning curve, but is far more simple in it's use once you know it... in my opinion anyway.
I can also efficiently use Metasequoia, which was a bit confusing at first but is now pretty simple. I loathe blender aside from importing and exporting.
EDIT: Actually after looking at Cid's terrible spears I decided to do Yuffie's weapons... she's my favorite anyway.
EDIT2: can someone point me toward a list of materia slots on each weapon?
Timu Sumisu:
you should join in our effort to remake battle models, see my wip thread or neocloudstrifes. Just pop me a line if you want a task (i dont want ppl to overlap work)
