Chopper-zone soldier model

I am happy to announche Realspawn-productions has Fuxer aboard. Here is a first look at his soldier model
they will try to blast the helicopter out of the sky

It looks awesome, but why a 256*256 texture? 512*512 or 1024*1024 is the current standard

woah, nice one man!

It's nice to see a 2k poly model is "low poly" 2 years ago it was 650 ^^

congrats it's awesome (oh I said it already)

He's awesome! Looks very photorealistic

Fuxers work looks awsome.
I´m waiting for the moment to implement it into the game

@bstudio: Do you miss any details wich could be there with a higher textureresolution?

i guess you won't see them close up anyway

Looks really great btw, he does awesome models.

you'll see them close in game as the heli is able to land to pick up people

Great model and texture! - Good work...
Event with a normal map!
Chopper-zone 's getting better and better.

How did you manage the aiming-angle of the soldier (tilt)?
By bones or % of vertex-anim...?

Code:

---

       |
 ------T------  |
     # ###    ##*-
     #########  |
   
       /
      *

i meant closer like standing infront of him. i don't think the camera can come that close...

And even if, it's still good enough, it doesn't look blury or undetailed at all so 256² is just fine.

Sorry to jump in, but Why not 512x512 or 1024x1024 skin?

Many of the textures in DOOM3 were 256x256 and even 128x128 for walls and doors and other aspects (all models)... it's necessary if you are using normal mapping specular etc etc... its very necessary, in fact, for optimizing.

Believe it or not, still in this world there are people who arent rich (It's True!) and cant afford $500 graphics cards and 3+Ghz processor computers. Unless shooting for a very specific computer spec, games should be made with that in mind. Whats more... not all models NEED that big of skin.

Realspawn, that model looks awesome even with such a small skin, it's amazing in fact

also remember there are 6 skins for this model so... yeah

256² texture is very good when it is good used, and it is defnately good usend for this great model!

Thx for the comments i have Fuxer to thank for it i hope he reads this.

Indeed a great model, congratz

Cheers

wow soo nice comments here Thanks every1
The reason why i chose 256 is bcz as spawn told me,there will be many soldiers so why slow down with unnecessary texture size?256 is fine and as long as the model looks good even in a close view,im happy with that
Spawn hasn't yet seen this but heres the chopper

i used a slightly bigger texture here bcz this might get very near to cam and also there will always be only 1 in view

I got to ask:
What are you doing the skins with?

photoshop.what else?

amazing work

why are u so good?

i really want to see this game attain a level of completion you're all completely satisfied with.

looking forward to more

Wow... amazing work. Honestly, some of the best I've seen on these forums. Just a question though, does the soldier model have bones?
