The left ss looks alright, but the right one needs to be toned down. Too many colors, and too much rust I think.

Agreed, the right one is a bit over the top. The left one is absolutely perfect.

yeah, was too lazy to post here that it looked really bad ingame...
but here's what i have now...

http://www.kolumbus.fi/ruohis/temp/almost_finnished_b_models.jpg
it's 1600x1200 so you can view the texture and detail better. thought this would be more quick than to render a 640x480 image of each and every model
will do that when i release them...

Anyways, as the filename sais it, they are almost finnished, 99% (unless you find something that needs to be changed)
won't release them just yet, have to do some bugchecking and final tweaking.

but yes, final chanse to give your suggestions if you want to se something a little bit different.

(expect theese to be released during the wekend in md3 format with 512x512 png textures)

Why is the big health pack covered in rust and bullet holes? That makes it a lot less attractive (imho, in case peppe gets funny ideas).

that's because it's the small one, the big one is the other one, it just happens to be in front of it so it looks bigger, they are actually the same size

yea like that! or something with more edges, or less... a pyramid
"in case peppe gets funny ideas" wtf? can't I make suggestions or what?

Ruohis, do the healthbox and mega have animation on the red bars? Are you also releasing lumas?

Incredible work Ruohis!

What about a faithfull backpack model too?

I think the boxes are missing some screws or (riveted) bolts on the edges. At least the nailboxes, shells and the mega have those on every edge. The small healthboxes have them on the corners and the rockets have them on top of the box. Would make them a bit more realistic. Without them the boxes have this lego-look. Don't make the bolts 3d, just add them to the textures. That would be great.

Beside this: great work, Ruohis. :-) Will definitely integrate the models in my lan-party quake-installer (to reanimate retired quakers) as long as they work with ezQuake. ;-)
Keep up the good work.

*uses his crazy voice* I'll model EVERYTHING!!!! ;D
well not the monsters, but besides that *crazy voice* everything!

:>


Yes they work in ezQuake... and yes, i'll see what i can do about the screws.
And indeed, why i'm doing this, my friends are always telling me that quake is so old and the graphics look like a bunch of blocks. and i got tired of that
heh, and even though i'm no top player i'm still the only one of my friends who play quake, so i'll bet they don't want to play against me no matter how good quake looks

quake maps looks like a bunch of blocks regardless of textures though, that's sad

sLoP, is this better?

Wow!

I mean..... WOW!!!!!
Those screws rule. I really like them A LOT! :-)

Great work, man.
Really, can't wait to test them. :-)

I hope they have the same sizes as the original boxes.

Again: excellent work, dude! And so lightning fast...

nice, nice.. i might switch to your models if they will work in EZQuake.. will they?

they prolly will since ezquake can handle md3s

not as good as FTE though.. :/
someone should make a FTEZ engine

Ruohis said they will work in ezQuake. He posted some screenshots named "ezquake00*.jpg" earlier in this thread, so i believe he even uses ezQuake for testing.

Correct?

Ruohis, these models you are re-making are just awsome. Great work, keep it up!

another notch on this faithfull model crusade...
if someone has thought i spent too much time working on ammoboxes... well... drool on theese..

noice!!

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

i have got to find my off switch...
this is getting rediculous
i'm sure you guy's don't mind that i work fast but seriously
ok... i'll take weekends off

what the heck am i talking about... well... this!
http://www.kolumbus.fi/ruohis/temp/armor_ingame.jpg
i started to work on the armor about 6h ago, then i took a few brakes got something to eat and now i'm this far...

both armor and sg look very nice - best i've seen
i play mtf and we don't care about f_modified so i am very eager to play with these
nice work.

nice armor, Ruohis, but maybe make the green a little smoother?

maybe also pronounce the um, chest muscle things?


like so

*drooling* : D~~

don't worry, that's no where near the final texture, the cheast will get more highlight and shadows...

very nice armor indeed

did some model changes to the armor model

the shoulder thingies are a lot more faithfull now than in the previous model ( http://www.kolumbus.fi/ruohis/temp/armour.jpg )

the hole where quake player sticks his head out from seems kind of small?
