Senviro Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Zbrush has quite a number of good tools for texturing, it's true, but since I'm working off of the base body texture projected onto polypaint I have to be far beyond careful how the colors are applied. As for the normal maps, we've still yet to see. Derok was able to make them for the argonian male using nothing but the textures I had sent, which is a good sign. For me, however, Skyrim's models have a very odd balance of where the blues and purples need to be when concerning symmetrical images, as I had numerous issues in dealing with them myself. Zbrush may be a good tool, but it ofttimes excels at being a pain in the ass. As always though, once I make something, I simply send it off and see what happens next. Thinking too far ahead freezes lucid thoughts to the problems at hand. Best I can do is deal with what's in front of me, and pass off my files to anyone who wants to try something with them.

Derok Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) There's really not a lot of progress from the last time, but since Bilo is back I will post for her the updated version, everyone will be free to test it.

bilotheretard Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Thanks, I'm hanging around the forums all the time because I'm supposed to be doing homework and I'm procrastinating mad. So this is the perfect opportunity for me to work on this before the deadline comes close and I really have to get serious haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senviro Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 looks like you guys are making progres any chance for a new alpha build ? would love too see what is done and what still needs some work on? oo cool claws :smile: nice :smile: that's a nice little bonus The majority of assets are neither Skyrim-ready nor non-.Objs/.jpgs, and although the models seem to me trapped in perpetual apogee they therewithal need undergo our ad hoc ontogenesis. Heretofore - in simple terms - Skyrim's stood athwart the bulk of work. The closest thing to an update to the current Alpha (in my opinion) could only be the inclusion of Derok's claws. If current progress is anything to go by, the modeling/texturing yet to be truly finalized stands the largest obstacle; until the technicalities of compatibility with Skyrim arise. And good luck when that deadline hits, Bilo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinniekliennie Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 :) oke i am just glad you guys are working on it because i really liked the beast race's in morrowind when i played oblivion for the first time i was so sad, the beast race's were so ugly in oblivion. Lucky they fixed that in skyrim but stil i mis the beastleg and feet from morrowind :) but stil it was a much needed improvemed from oblivion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senviro Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 The horrendousness of Oblivion's beast races stunned me as well. It was mind-boggling that a series could take a graphical step up while losing so much aesthetic/gameplay value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinniekliennie Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 yeah it made me kinda angry to what were they think there but nearly all race's looked like crap in oblivion btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danidragon Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Argonians looked more like froglike than lizardlike.Khajiits on the other hand-them huge noses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derok Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) In Oblivion Argonians looked like iguanas and Khajiits looked like pumas. What I hated most on Argonians are their exposed teeth. They looked so derpy...Anyway I posted the updated version in the first page. If someone take a good updated picture, I will use it in the description. Edited April 27, 2013 by Derok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
