Weapon modelling

[Ice_Stovo]

You should turn off "set smooth" on the blades of the second mace. It will look more natural.

Thanks for the advice And rast, i'll have a look through the ones i've done and send you a couple.

Yum yum! UV map these babies and send 'em over You'd have to reduce the count of the club mace though - maybe get rid of the grooves of the handle.

[Raleigh]

Great stuff! Now just make good a crossbow, a short bow and a longbow, and then all that will remain to implement ranged weapons will be the coding!

[RayvenD]

Melee claw weapon, for those times when a pesky tall bugger comes to disturb your drinking with a sword in his hand




and not to leave the magic users out, a crystal wand

[Piemont]

offensive weapon for short range,maybe its required:)

Piemont, i'm not sure if you realise but this isnt a thread of things that're goin in the game. I'm just posting pictures of attempts at different weapons. If you want to submit your model to the game i'd get in touch with a developer 'cause it looks pretty nice

Dangit, export these correctly and give me an email poke Did you get my last message about the .OBJs? For some reason they aren't loading in max. Perhaps some Blender folks here can mention how to correctly export .OBJs so that they work in other applications. These look too good!

[RayvenD]

Just read your message. I'm not sure what i'm doin wrong as i've never used max at all. It'd help if i had max to check the files on before i send them i guess. Anyone with blender have any ideas what i need to change on my options?

For the readers/lurkers: issue seems to be fixed now :]

[RayvenD]

Well i'm an idiot and was counting the polys with quads not triangles, so here's a simplified studded mace.

polycount : 286



if you want to see the beautful original then i'll leave it in the thread, same with all the other ones that follow haha.

polycount : 288



polycount:300



polycount: 300



polycount : 216

[Nikodemus]

[RayvenD]

You texture it

Ok nearly modified all of them to be  300 or less now 

polycount: 278



polycount: 300



polycount: 300



polycount: 280



i'll have the lochaber done soon, and the warhammer was fine as is thank laanx

edit: and just because i felt sorry for the non violent types a "weapon" for the artist in us all. a simple lute (will require detail in texture to look good though i think)

polycount: 116



And what the hell, for the budding young composer a penny whistle

polycount: 94
