One way to get the texturemaps is to extract the dxt files using HMT then use nvidia dds utilities to convert them to .bmp

the bump kills the brute shot, but other than the bump i like it.

Please work on all of your bumps.

that detail map looks really really weird.

Yeah...the detail map is a bit odd.

And the background is too.

The background it the masterchief_visor cubemap, and the detail map is leather(wtf).

It's his first render, go easy on him everyone.
I think the detail map looks good. If you lower the strength of the detail bump, it wont show up as leather as easily. Also, raise the specular a little.

It's different when someone is limited by technical capabilities. But when they put a leather texture on metal... no.

Get some reflections on that armor.

There are reflections, they are just too weak to be noticed.

then turn them up.

I edited it slightly, and it seems to pick up the colour of the surrounding when using a HDRI.

The lightinh looks really nice but maybe you should make the armor look more metalic.

I really don't like that scene...

darco9x2 · Post by **darco9x2** » Fri Dec 01, 2006 7:18 pm

if it was yours, how would you change it to make it better?

Veegie[Temp] · Post by **Veegie[Temp]** » Fri Dec 01, 2006 7:31 pm

Ask myself, "Does this scene even make sense?", before I put concept drawings on paper.
