Lil update as to what I've been working on lately.

There's two things, Both are character Packs but only one is close to release. I'm working on a Generations Sonic Pack and a Breath of the Wild Link Pack.

The sonic pack is closer to release of the two. It contains a well optimized generation Sonic that will have some of his popular alts but for the generation model. Atm these alts are Sim Sonic, Soap Shoes Sonic, Boom Sonic, Riders Sonic, and 06 Upgrade Sonic. All that's left is some modeling work for his 06 upgrade model parts, texture and model work to finish the expressions, and touch-ups on a few areas of the rig. I already put together a beta model to begin work on the shaders/materials for when he's ready for importing. I'll probably post some pics sometime this week


Second, he's pretty far from being finished but I've made a lot of progress and have quite a few wip screens to post of BotW Link. I was considering canceling him because of all the texture work I would have to do due to his split UVs. I would've had to remake all of the details for every single texture for all of his costumes & weapons. So I spent the end of last week looking into getting him in brawl without having to do all of that work. I ended up figuring out how to give him multiple UV channels and getting normal maps to work. You can check out some BrawlBox pics of link and a few of his alts below

Right now I am working with the vanilla BotW models, none of them are on vbrawl Link's skeleton nor do they have his proportion. I just figured out multiple UV channels and normal maps so I've been experimenting with those and shader/materials to get him to look right in BrawlBox all weekend. There's still a lot of work to be done before i can even start vertexing and rigging to fit over brawl link.

Link looks pretty neat so far, even if rather basic, haha.

Link's looking good so far, glad to see Fierce in the list of alts (Fierce Deity Link is my favorite)

thanks! I'm experimenting with his shaders to give him a more detailed/better look. hopefully I can get it.

thanks! Fierce Deity is one of his liked costumes so I decided to include it.

Another Link Update!













Still Working on his shaders but I got the details to be a bit more visible, so it's a step in the right direction. Also did more shader work on the Sheik Slate to get the glowwy stuff visible. doesn't glow yet tho.

ohmygosh it's the royal guard outfit.
The faded colour scheme does look a tad odd though. Might just be me.

[LinkTahuterasuSpirit]

oh, Outset Link, I like that costume from Wind Waker nice to see it included.

that's because the materials and shaders are still being worked on I think.

Trying to give him his previous brightness/saturation but with more detailing. got the detailing down, now I just have to work on getting the brightness/saturation back to how it was through shader editing.

I will have more new costumes to show this weekend. It will more than likely be my last batch of outfit i plan to import for BotW Link.

[iwantgames]

Update, new costumes and a new look!

Before




Now









New Things added:

- Bow like in SSBU
- Pouches(not visible)

Stealth set is going to be the base for botw sheik

[Lillith]

Oooh, I like how shiny things are.
Knight armour is definitely a great look, too.

yeah, new shaders/materials do him justice. Now has specs and subtle rim lightning. soilder is nice but I think my fav is either the stealth set or the zora set

Another Costume Done!

Ancient set



Didn't make previous post because it required addition edits to the materials and shaders. The completion of this costumes also means that I now have the finalized shaders/materials for the sheikah slate. I will be including his amiibo/dlc mask as well. will be doing those tomorrow if I have the time, and redoing his other costumes throughout the week. Will post all this weekend.

Looking forward to seeing what the Royal Guard set looks like! I love that beret.

Hey, so I used your Toon Link Hyrule Warriors costume and they seem to crash my game in Project M. Do you think that you could make a fix to those? Thanks!

i'll have it this weekend. have to restart/re-import all of the previous costumes that have the older look because they don't work with the new shader for some reason. I was using the ones on the model resource, now i'm using fresh rips from the game.

I think it's a filesize issue. just lower the resolution of the textures for now. I'll be updating him when I get back to Hyrule warriors cast. he'll have that fix as well as addition stuff.

Right now i'm suppose to be focusing on finishing up sonic so I can get back to the Warriors cast but I've been having too much fun with BotW Link's shaders/materials. sowwy

Hey, it's cool! Thanks for the advice. I will see if I can grab the stuff again and try it out.
