Looks nice.

[The_MDexs]

nice work

[Glimmerman]

Nice one m8, once the texture is done and its exported all C7 assault rifles for the factions are complete and we are one step closer to finalizing the build

[Wakain]

will the canadian faction profit from this too?
the current m16a4 placeholder is a pain:S

[Glimmerman]

Dont know, depends on if they use the AG-36 or the M203 40mm nade launcher.

[GeZe]

We use the M203

[Wakain]

apologies, should've known

[Charliesierra-RCR]

when is the Dutch forces gunna get rid of their C7a1's?

[NemeanHavoc]

I think around 2020, we just started updating the colt's (diemaco's).
new optics, rails/ris, double fire control etc. So it will take a long while..

I guess that i have managed to make the textures match up, but in any case, i still have the psd with me.

I already delivered the files to Glimmerman.

Cheers!

Good work, as usual

[Z-trooper]

Hmm.

I don't get this. I did this, UV'd it and made an AO map (which dosn't look like is being used on the diffuse where it should be).

And whatever this is:



It is NOT a working normal map. It looks like a projection of the low poly on to the low poly... which is of no use what so ever.

I got only the model, the rest was done from scratch. And about the Normal map, i did it from the AO who i did in the beggining of it. Any tips to improve?

[Z-trooper]

First off, don't use it. Start over.

Second; read this:

[FPaiva]

Better now?

It literally looks like you did the same thing but just lowered the scale. You can see your grooves for the grip pop out.. they have to go in.

Use the heightmap technique. It's a pain but once you get it you get a 10000x better normal map then you ever thought. I've tried it and it works wonders.

[FPaiva]

Okay, i've added the Gray background over the diffuse and used the diffuse as a reference to drawn the details over the grey background and this was my best result:

[Glimmerman]

I send him all the files you gave me Z, im a noob so dont know what happened but in the end i do like the result

A very big thank you to all who participated

[Wilkinson]

You should post up your Heightmap FP, it'd be easier to help or understand.

Looks more understandable though. maybe in those grooves use a gradient from 50%grey to 100% black center to out.

Gradients on these things are your friend. Salmonella taught me that one
