[WIP] ZPAK 0.01 (stockalike parts FTW!)

[blackheart612]

Thanks to Cpt. Kipard, I discovered baking AOs. It's the best way to make shadows, if I were you, make AOs and multiply them to your texture, looks a lot better.

I concur - sometimes its a bit tricky to set up. Worth it though!

Not really stockalike, and it seems rather unfinished. The colors seem like they would work, though.

[ZodiaK]

this isn't the finished texture. CERVERUS is working on a new version. I'm bad at paint but this is my render:

[ZodiaK]

still waiting for the texturing. biding time mostly.

CERVERUS is working on the textures:

Will the UNIN-10 pod have an orbital module? Plz?

[ZodiaK]

hmmm... maybe...

[Helix935]

if it does will it be based off a Soyuz's or Shenzou's?

Hopefuly Soyuz...

I don't think you can convert Google Sketchup parts into nice looking parts.

There's no flat texture map, or any bitmapping or anything.

Maybe you can import it into blender. Btw, nice name. I live in alaska.

[ZodiaK]

it will be based off of the soyuz OM. waiting on CERVERUS for the texturing.

I have problems how you see to the pics,with the UV Map,for example the "SLM 24" appears twice,and one of them is like to mirror of the other.

[ZodiaK]

yeah, we've kinda hit a road block when it comes to texturing... does anyone want to have a go at texturing the SLM-24?

here is the texture image:

and the link for the .DAE file of the SLM-24:

My parts are google sketchup made I think they are looking as what I wanted them to be.

Anyways,

Hrrm, a sketchup user. It'll be easy, model it on sketchup, soften edges to those that you want to be shaded smooth on blender because blender will import it as smooth already. You can unwrap the UVs on blender. That'll be easy as pie. The bridge will be exporting as dae

[Lack]

I've always found that you have to clean up models in Blender quite a lot when using sketchup, delete doubles will remove about a third of the vert count.

I'm taking a shot at texturing that model, will post pics shortly.

Edit:

Bit of progress

[blackheart612]

Yeah, a lot of cleaning. That's true.

[ZodiaK]

THANKS YO SO MUCH LACK

also, It's an honor to see you in my thread, blackheart.

[blackheart612]

lol an honor to see a beginner in your thread?

[ZodiaK]

look at your signature. beginner?

[blackheart612]

Well, at modeling

[ZodiaK]

ech, me too. OI LACK, YOU ONLINE?

(sorry for shouting)

I might as well smooth out some edges on the UNIN-10...

[Lack]

Yep, I'm here.

Bit more progress:

I had to re-do the model, but it's about the same size/shape.

With a model like this I wouldn't bother manually doing the smoothing, just do it in Unity on the import settings. Lazy, but it works. I think I've done that with about 90% of SXT.

[ZodiaK]

ooh, looking good!

thank you so much!
