sui317 Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 FN 57 ? p90 ? i would love to see those in graw2, but i might be asking too much for the p90 as it would involve too many animations me thinks. the ump45 would be nice aswell. well simply put, i'd be happy with any thing other than 9mm side arm or smg/pdw (wait, i'll be happy with any new additions to the selection) thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRIN_Straha Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 2: They end up looking like crap as GRAW2 can't really process the normal maps aswell as I had hoped. If I am to get these things ingame and looking reasonable I'm going to have to move away from letting the normal maps handle all the smoothing and assign some smooth groups myself.Hmmm, did you smooth the entire weapon? Thet's generally "bad" to do, wreaks havoc with some small but vital part of the shader/diesel, I forget what it's called. Or it could be that you rendered your normalmaps with the default green = down in max? That will make stuff look really horrible, graw uses green = up. If you did, just invert the green channel of the normalmap. Render looks good though, keep it up =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowFella Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 Yup, was dumb enough to let my normal map handle all the smoothing for me. In other words everything looks as it should when rendered but checking the model using max direct x display in the viewport and it's smoothing problems all over the place. Not in a way suprising that max has a more exact translation of normals than what your average gameengine has though. I've fixed that already though, set up proper smoothgroups, re-rendered all of my normalmaps and now things atleast look right using the DX drivers...still have to see what it will look like ingame now though. Setting it up right now so I ought to be able to see it in a few minutes, that's after having to go through the hassles of porting my model from max 8 to max 7 Thanks for the tip about the inverted green channel mate...never knew it had been set up that a way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowFella Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 Alright, here's the "new" model with it's new normal map ingame...still just a plain grey colour map and specular map. Straight normal map Normal map with inverted green channel. Very good info about the green channel Straha! Bjud dig själv på en bärs från en exil svensk!

Snow Even if he had see them there , they are still posted under the name "Snowfella" and the BFS logo so you would think he could put 2 and 2 together and get 4 ?? sounds more like a case of sour grapes to me M8,, some people really make me laugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowFella Posted July 29, 2007 Author Share Posted July 29, 2007 Oh well, guess I have to wait till my day of reprieve is over before I find out if I passed or not Still can't really come up with anything pressing that I need to get off my chest though.....ummmm.....ahhhh....ehhhhh....nah, nothing there @Juerg Linison: Just a slight hint here mate....might just be an idea to do your research BEFORE you start swinging accusations the next time. It be pretty easy around these forums to do a check on my name and find out exactly how long I've been around for and get a rough idea of the amount of models I've shown off over the years. If I indeed was using someone elses models and calling them my own then I'd be the king of mod thieves...hell I have even done it good enough to get hired as a freelance modeler and take home GR.net's forum awards for best weapon modeler 3 years running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowFella Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 Oh let it stand Tinker....but I do think we all can lay it to rest for now....atleast untill, or rather if, Juerg desides to once again show up to adress the issue again. @Whisper: Why did you have to go and blow the whistle on me like that...yes, your the modeler and I'm the camo expert.

SnowFella Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 Alright, I'll bump my own here...a mere 25 minutes after I posted last..lol In regards to additional weapons ontop of the Masada versions. Due to a real lack of time I'm going to port accross the MEUSOC from my GRAW mod to fill the handgun portion of this mod. That leaves the Secondary to still be filled... Suggestions I've seen so far seems to be limited to 3 weapons, the P90, MP7 and UMP .45. All of the above are doable and I already have base models of each that I can reuse and bring them up to GRAW2 standards. Keep in mind these are years old now and of [GR] standards still. FN P90 HK MP7 HK UMP Now, nomatter what one I do there is going to be animation flaws and most likely some sighting issues! With the P90 there is no way I could get the reload animation to look right. An MP7 would most likely have to be "coded" as a rifle as the sightline is so much higher than the handguns already in there = another one that would have a wonky reload anim. And the UMP...well, that's most likely the best "match" with excisting animations but I have no idea how it will hold up in the sight department.
