WIP Workshop

[Kyouma]

I'm not a fan of Touhou (I don't even understand most of it), but I respect its fans.

It's probably the most impressing fandom I've ever seen. Touhou is literally EVERYWHERE.

And considering its from a game series which doesnt belong to a big company (actually one single guy "ZUN" makes the whole games by himself) it makes it more impressive

aaaanyway I dont like to post on this thread without showing at least one preview

Ive been watching too much Lum recently

[Large Leader]

So I finished up Dark Link and I now finished this:



Upside - It's mostly rigged. Needs leg improvements

Downside - too [censored]ing high poly

Another downside - I tried using Tri-stripper and it did nothing. So it's either that o rme

Yet another downside - ProOptimizer doesn't do enough

:notimp:

Did you use the wield already?

[Large Leader]

Did you use the wield already?

I used a vertex weld threshold of 0.2 and it deformed it too much. Even after smoothing it out.

[Kyouma]

you should use it on 0.01

[Large Leader]

you should use it on 0.01

That along with Smooth, got it to 29, 478 polys.

I'm pretty sure that's still too high.

[Velen]

I'm not gonna comment on that Protoman...

[russmarrs2]

It doesn't look like it should deform it too much if you ProOptimized it.

Great post, real insightful, 10/10

[Large Leader]

Optimized at 50%



Optimized at 25% (so that'd be 75% reduction iirc)

Going to bump it up (or down) to 35% and then see what I can do from there.

Oh wow, sarcasm, not like we need more of it. Oh wait.

Would you rather I tear his model apart with a scathing critique? Remember what happened the last time I did that?

Yeah. No. I would like to avoid repeating that particular piece of stupid, thank you, so run along and take your wholly unnecessary sarcasm elsewhere and stop being a total jerk purely for the sake of it.

[Gamma Ridley]

Have you tried using this method? It's a lot more time consuming, but it'll give you more control over what stays and what goes.

Unless your model is obscenely high poly, in which case you're better off making a lower-poly version from scratch.

There is a middle ground, y'know

It's called I have nothing good to say about it, so I would rather keep my mouth shut. Ever heard of it?

Guess not.

Yeah, it still looks good like that, so I would just say ProOptimize it to that, then use edit mesh to move the vertexes around to make it look like the original.

Velen, I appreciate your concern. Aside from the fact that we all act like adults here and should be able to take criticism, the model isn't even mine :P

I would if I had time to learn how to make low poly models. But I really need to work on Programming. Right now, I'm just doing stuff I can do quickly. Like:



That guy's sword.
