WIP Workshop

[Taigiry]

Just a little something, to go with the button and yarn theme:

I tried to make them shine with both, a spe and a ref material (not simultaneously, of course), but I didn't really work out. Maybe it doesn't work with pitch black texture, I dunno, it's not noticeable in normal gameplay anyway.

And a short rundown of what's left to do:

• Finalizing the textures
• Making recolors
• Making a version with rim lightning
• Giving the stage proper collisions
• Making a video (because why not?)
• Wondering how Nintendo managed to make Yoshi even cuter

right one looks better
i think its a little too dark though
yarn colors are always more colorful instead of "dull" like brawls textures.

Well, I did say the colors need adjustment, eh? But honestly, I'm not a fan of Brawls dull look anyway.

Change the dress's "cull" setting to "inside" that should fix it.

I'm gonna sound like a retard but how do I do that? Is it in BrawlBox or 3ds Max?
I'm confuzzled

[StupidMarioFan1]

In BrawlBox, go to the material for the dress and look for "CullMode" and set it to "Cull_Inside" by default BB v0.71 and up imports models with all the materials set to "Cull_None" which means that both sides of the objects have the texture showing.
Cull_Inside = front face is visible
Cull_Outside = back face is visible
Cull_None = front and back faces are visible
Cull_All = front and back faves are not visible
Hopefully this helps.

Ok I'll try it but I'm somewhat worried about this method, the WiiU assist trophy model of Lyn has everything in one texture file, so everything is one material, if I change the culling will it affect the rest of the model?

How does one reduce the poly count/optimize a model without ProOptimizer again?

Because for those of you who didn't read my last post on my PSA thread, I come bearing walrus. Yep! I finally have it.

Nope. Just the object the material is set on.

Do you only have one material file? I see the hair has some transparency, is that in a seperate material file or does the whole model use that transparency?
To answer your question, yes it'll effect the whole model, but it doesn't seem like it should matter anywhere else besides the dress. BB's model preview will show the cull settings so you can change it and then preview the model and see if anywhere else looks different. I mention this because like most of us already know, the model preview doesn't show everything, usually though it's just normalized texture (like the metal textures) and then the eyes aren't rendered correctly, if at all.

Tristripping and Pro Optimizing are your best bets sadly.

@Mariofan: Go ahead :kdance:



And updated Bowser body textures [been posting him too much, last one for now]

How close is SSBWiiU Bowser?

Custom Wolf model (Modeled from scratch for fun)

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

Gardevoir (Modeled from scratch)

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

Sash Lilac (Modeled from scratch, made to fit fox's bone structure, didn't like sonic's bone structure, may try to fit sonic's bone structure at a later date)

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

Leviathan MMZ (Modeled from scratch, made a long time ago but stopped because I wasn't experienced in modeling faces)

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

of course, every model is turbo smoothed (except for leviathan) I wanted to make it look pretty : 3

I've been getting into a modeling kick again, so I might post more of my stuff here

[ShadowLuigi~NG~]

^ Pretty good models!

@Mariofan: Rig is nearly finished. Rather than putting more pressure of his files I combined his normal map textures rather than using spec maps as you can see. His rig is almost finished. Just have to fix his butt areas since it is a bit odd. I'll see what bones are weighed on the Brawl Bowser

[LJSTAR]

Those models are awesome Scootaloo ! I really like Lilac's model, but, aren't your model a bit too high-poly for Brawl ?

He's well aware of that, trust me.

I know, I can easily remove the turbo smooth modifier, with that removed the models drop to reasonable limits or even below the characters they're going over. Such as Lilac, without turbosmoothing, her face count is 6000 something while foxes is 10000 something

[Pik]

Good to see some more custom stuff here! That's what the modding scene needs.

Anyway, in my spare time I've been working on upping the resolution of X's textures.

[RandomTBush]

Easily you can tell that the UVs are different, whereas Pac-Man's fire hydrant:

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

It's the exact same in both versions.

Actually, it's not. The texture there is for the trophy model of the fire hydrant (which is the same as the Wii U version), but that's not the one used for the 3DS version in-game.

That's the 3DS version's texture. The UV mapping is close to the Wii U version, but the textures are different. Not to mention the model has a lot less polygons overall.
