Aafyre's Vertex and Texture thread (08/27) Desukan Preview

Good to have you back dude :D

[Legendary Super Mario]

I know I'm a little late on this buuuuuuuuut...

Welcome back Aafyre! :af2:

[Black Neon X27]

How did you add those spikes to the predator's right arm, because those look rediculously cool. I've been trying to do that. :happy:

[Carnage]

Whenever you start vertexing, I would enjoy more Pokemon ^_^

i suport that xD and if the alien vertex over wolf ever gets done that would be epic xD

[deadname mcredactedface]

Hey Aaf, you had trouble patching when you made Lickitung over Yoshi right? I'm attempting something over Yoshi myself and I'm having trouble patching the arms and tail too. Should I quit while I'm ahead?

[Aafyre]

I don't think you'll ever get it perfect, but if you're really patient and play around with it enough, it will eventually look decent enough. I think the trick is to only focus on one area at a time. Of course, the real issue with Yoshi is the normals....

[deadname mcredactedface]

Gah, I've already made heavy edits to the entire body D:

[BlueBrain]

u should try dasdonkey box 2... i havent tried anything with yoshi yet, but other than the tail, i think it should export it perfectly with only double patching once... (ive read a lot of complaining about multipatch issues on characters, while i made edits on those same characters with just ONE double patch... )and if it doesnt look good, u can send me the mdl0, and i could try fixing it with bone edits ^^
of course, if problems are on the torso or arms, those have no solution, since those bones are VERY important... xD

[deadname mcredactedface]

I do use DDVB2. Many characters have at least one part that can't be patched easily, such as Peach's and Toon Link's hair. Oh man, Toon Link's hair gave me a headache when I was making Roll

[BlueBrain]

but thats because hair is effected by game physics...
i mean bodies in general never gave me problems...

[deadname mcredactedface]

Yeah but disabling bones doesn't magically make those parts better, plus Toon Link's hat can be edited fine despite being affected by wind, while Yoshi's hands and tail-tip are not affected by physics and they can't be patched easily. So while the evidence is solid and that's what I think sometimes too, I'm not sure that's really it.

I would think it's something to do with the amount of points something has since it's usually on parts that have a lot of them, since Peach's and Toon Link's hair and Yoshi's hands and tail tip are part of a polygon with a whole lot of other things, but that's just an assumption...

We should probably take this discussion elsewhere instead of swamping Aaf's thread with off-topic posts. :P

[BlueBrain]

i CAN fix hair with bone edits... that was my point in my other post... i only do one double patch and fix the messed up stuff with bone edits, by changing their translations and rotations in the T-pose

[deadname mcredactedface]

Hmm... You bring an interesting point. I'm not hugely into bone edits (none of my hacks use them, not even Roll) but I suppose I'm going to have to resort to them some day.

[SiLeNtDo0m]

Just out of curiousity Aafyre, if you get back into Brawl hacking what do you think you'll work on next?  I mean after you do that Sephiroth revamp and that possible Black Knight.  I remember a while ago you were saying that you were doing an Alien vertex over Wolf.  How was that coming along?

[Aafyre]

I never actually started the Alien. Problem is, I keep thinking of new things I want to make. Now I'm thinking I could make the other Battletoads. Rash over Sheik and Zitz over Captain Falcon.
