[SC2] Models Import

it seem import from 3dMax is getting better with anim support , even models from war3 o_O , etc .. so i decided to make a model :p

here a screenshot .. now i need anims for it , i think its not that bad for a test .. except that i made mistake with the scale i had to reduce to 0.0015 coz i made a giant titan soldier that covered all the map )8



ahh... btw the model takes only 430k for like 6000 polygons and 100k for the texture

I've also decided to make a model with 3ds:



I think yours is a little bit better, still :/

Ohh yummi ... I leik teh izcreem !!

in fact i used 3dmax only at the end to export . i made the mesh with Zbrush

Do you think zbrush is better / easier to work with than 3ds max?
(That is, if you have some expierence with 3ds)

I find 3ds ... confusing to say the least. The huge amount of tools and functions are overwhelming - even if I know what I am want I have a hard time searching for it. And even if I find it.. so many tools have certain rules of usage or things you have to keep in mind >.>

yeah i always have been amazed to see all those boutons in 3dmax so i never done much 3Dstuff once i tried Zbrush with a few tuto i was like 'omgwtf its so easy' and specially to textures models . but zbrush is more oriented on organic shape . But i think its a good start to make a mesh to get the global shape with Zpheres tools and then export to 3dMax for square/edges parts .. this is one object i made with the help of zbrush last year

Optimized polygon counts and better skin

model 8000poly 606kb (compressed 250kb)
texture 1024px/1024px 1Mb (compressed 354Kb)

I think a complete decent model with anims and some specular map could cost 800Kb
and half for lower resolution.

I cruely need to learn how to animate that stuff :/

Hm nice. Then have fun making some animations lol.

And always keep the 10mb limit in mind :/
