Title: Quick Simple Questions Post by: Zemious on October 02, 2012, 03:06:18 PM How many Vertices and Triangles are allowed? More specifically, for each character? Is there a list?
Does the brawl engine like anything other than diffuse maps? ie, Specular, Normal (bump), emissive? I'm not new to modeling, although I can't find a template or anything for modeling for brawl so I'd be modeling blind.

I'm not new to modeling, although I can't find a template or anything for modeling for brawl so I'd be modeling blind. I'm not sure on the amount of Triangles/Verts necessary. I've never encountered it. There is a file-size limit that differs per-file-per-character, though: http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=5876.0 (http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=5876.0) It'd be a good start to shoot around those sizes. The materials Brawl uses that I can confirm are diffuse, specular, and bump. I think. You might wanna shoot a PM to BlackJax96. He maintains and codes BrawlBox at the moment, so he'd be able to answer with 100% certainty. On the topic of materials though, Brawl has an engine different than any other 3D modeling program. Things like diffuse, specular, bump, etc, all need to be applied in Brawlbox, because they won't be imported with the DAE. EDIT: Also, just so you know for next time, this topic would go in the Model Help section. It's a sub-branch of this Model Importing one.

I could be wrong, but these are he numbers in my head. There is no hard limit, but the game will lag if it gets to be too much. The wii only supports one level of textures so bump is out, and I belive any shine you see is a material/shader - so specular mapping wont work. I had trouble toying with it at first, but the key is to reign your models in a bit, and you shouldnt have much problem.

That's incorrect. Brawl itself uses specular and diffuse maps, while Other M uses bump and normal maps. And those are just two examples, I'm sure there are more. Now, whether or not you can get the materials to look good in Brawl is a whole 'nother can of worms, since Brawl runs on a different engine than, say, Other M or MvC3. Title: Re: Quick Simple Questions Post by: SuperBarrio on November 02, 2012, 02:13:54 AM Ah, then I stand corrected! The level of texture thing is something one of my producers told me, though to be fair she is often wrong about everything.
...Time for me to play with Specular maps! |
