Another WIP of the temple, which is slowly but surely getting finished. I have made 4 shots using 4 cameras, to clear up a bit more about the scope of this thing.
The renders are rough and not edited yet; especially shot 3 (bottom left) contains a lot of errors (3DMax and its little... quirks). I also didnt use Final Gather for this WIP, because it takes a monstrous toll on my machine. Therefore, especially in the second shot (top right), it is pretty dark. Normally, using final gather and mental ray, it is also calculated where the light is reflected and which color it takes with it. Using this would normally brighten up everything by a lot, but using that will also increase render time from 3-5 minutes to the better part of 4 hours, maybe even more. Yeah, it is that much of a difference. Anyway, with this at least you know I am still busy. The grass still looks flat and I was planning to do something with that (using the scatter tool of max), but I think I am going to fur the whole thing (yeah, using a fur shader on a grass patch works extremely well). it takes its time though and it is not extremely compatible with my current model (with a lot of squares in it). Though I do have some idea of what I can do about that (using invisible models, since the fur doesnt take necesserily take the material of the model on which its applied). Anyway, hope to finish this very soon; the model is getting tiresome and by this time most of the models used in this piece are archaic for my doing. Hell, the temple itself is already 3 years old. Know for sure I could do a lot better nowadays  . On a sidenote; since the new option of asking for critiques I noticed you cannot ask specifically for advanced critique anymore. Since I am not going to pay just to receive critique (I am not THAT nuts), I will happily welcome any shredding you are willing to do. edit: I have tried the fur thing. The results were rather nice, though Max suddenly became a lot more prone to crashes (as if it werent bad enough before). Still working out a way to get this done without the error part. |

Erm... je eerste shot ziet er ook best wel plat uit, misschien wat meer lichten erin plaatsen zodat je wat meer diepte en verschil krijgt? En ik zou ook niet te veel lichteffecten gebruiken als je ze zo opsteld (4 naast elkaar) Tis wel mooi maar beetje overdone.
Mja.. hoop dat dit helpt. XD Keep ups ze good work!
Plus dat dit alles hopelijk de unreal 3 engine in wordt gekicked. Het fijne aan unreal 3 editor; alles met scripting, dus zelfs een idioot kan het er mooi laten uitzien (at least basic shaders binnen handbereik). Daarbij, de engine is monsterlijk; een project bij ons op school heeft het ding 5 miljoen polies laten pushen. Niet dat mijn project daar uit in de buurt komt, maar ik hoef me niet meer druk te gaan maken over facecount, alleen over alles goed distribueren

Kan die echt 5 miljoen polies aan? O.o;; Das goed om te weten niet dat ik daar ooit aan toe zou komen maar ik moet ook nog een level afmaken voor UT3. Maar je gaat dus ook een character voor de engine maken? Sweet! Als je ideeen wilt sharen over je plattegrond of als je em wilt laten testen, let me know. Dat is iets waar ik wel goeie feedback over kan geven. ^^
Take care!
Maar dat geeft in elk geval ruimte. Ik checkte het met hen omdat de epic site was aan het opscheppend over hoe het wel 3 miljoen polies kon pushen. Gezien tec specs nog wel eens overdreven worden, wilde ik het even checken met iemand die de grens had opgezocht. En met die grens zijnde 5 miljoen, dan denk ik dat 3 miljoen helemaal niet gek is
Ik zal in elk geval binnenkort eens alle schetsen, plattegronden en zo eens posten onder scraps. Zal ik je wel de link sturen. Als voor de render; I aint happy with it, maar als je online bent en ik ben thuis, dan kick ik em wel eens jouw kant uit.
