Feel free to PM me the long story or link me to a thread that has it—I do not fear technical knowledge!


All textures are temporary at this point, including the spec maps and reflection textures (the reflection texture is in fact Samus's at the moment).
And diamond plating? Ew, no thanks. I'm thinking more a steel-cable look for his torso and arms with a more subtle metal texture for everything else.

Well, it'd involve finding it somewhere in BJ's BrawlBox thread. So that's not happening, haha. It makes things more accurate by allowing for float values (1.1, 3.56, etc) in certain areas instead of plain ints, I think. All I know is that checking them gives less problems.


As for Bisharp, I think a good custom Spec Map would be good too, since it would save you the trouble of more materials than necessary.

Sounds like a good plan. Can't wait to see the final result!

You misunderstand my meaning. By diamond plating, I mean the parts of it that contain no diamonds. I mean take the grain from a picture of diamond plate and use that.

I think that explains floats well enough right there. Thanks!

And yes, the spec map and the diffuse texture will essentially be made from the same greyscale textures.

Or, something like a brushed metal texture, which is basically diamond plating without the diamonds. Saves me from removing the diamonds and provides a lot more surface to work with. (;

well, yes, but it would make an excellent spec map, and I think Samus' reflection texture would be an excellent lighting texture. As for his arms. A properly constructed gradient would provide an excellent specular lighting texture. Using a hightlight, midtone core shadow and reflective light.

I guess this goes here, too. Happy Halloween!

Similar to how Angelglory was working on updating Little Mac, I decided to tackle another Assist Trophy. As far as model wise that's been updated, I gave Saki new appendages for better rig (arms, legs, and hands should look a lot better.) And I'm also tweaking the design a little to implement some design from Sin and Punishment 2.

Not done yet, but it's looking cool.
I plan on updating the Cannon Sword a bit more as well as giving him a new face. Textures are a little glitchyed looking at the moment, but fear not, they will look fine when finished.

Cool to see somebody give the Assist Trophies some love too. Glad I didn't pick Saki as my next model :P

Fun fact: Barbara's trophy model is much more detailed than her AT model...

All the trophies are like that.

yeah every trophy is more detailed than any ingame character i dont see why its a fun fact...
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

Saki is probably my favorite assist trophy wise, so I had to mess around with him. Glad we both are not working on him at the same time. xD

Saying that Barbara's trophy model is more detailed than her real model is a fun fact is like saying that Melee Luigi has more textures than Brawl Luigi does. All Melee characters have more textures than their brawl counterparts. :P
Here's a fun fact, Melee Mario and Luigi's textures were mapped almost like they were in a lot of the other Mario games as apposed to Brawl Mario Bros. It requires less editing to put Galaxy Mario's textures over Melee Mario's seamlessly than putting them over Brawl Mario's seamlessly.
I make YouTube videos, SM64 hacks, Brawl Hacks (obviously), NSMBW hacks, and GoldenEye 007 Mods. I also have a short attention span and tend to switch around a lot and put things on hold. But when I do finish things, 95% of the time I gave 120% effort, the other 5% of the time I give 100% effort.

That's misc fact or trivia. Want a fun fact? Wombat's poop is cubic.
Back on topic, glad to see someone updating Saki, also my favorite assist trophy character.

Sure StarWaffle vertexed it, but i imported it!
