DonDustin: reduce face and particle count

5th May 2010
General Frank:

Changes are name -> Resource approved.

Cool
I think light could be made better

a lot of unnecessary polies on this, delete the faces that aren't visible from the outside (i.e. the inner rim of all the wheels) the particles on the death need work. reduce particle saturation, spell animation is rather useless, UV wrap on back of traincar is stretched. and the light in the front is coming out of nowhere. you need more substance on the bottom, because the wheels' axles arent attached to anything, they are free-floating and it looks bare. other than all that, i like the concept, seems logical that there would be a train when the steamtank has a cow-catcher.

Whooooooh... this is amazing ^^ i never belived to see model like this.

Very, VERY cool concept. Just needs some improvement.

Now make a peace wagon ;3

better, but it could still use a bit more

Steampunky... and awesome! Looks cool, but the only purpose for it are cinematics.

can't you change those.. Light rays? to something more whitish?

EDIT: change the internal model name and AAAAAA... get the model to use just Two materials with steam tank texture ^D:

Awesome model, just reduce the poly count and make the particle smaller and it will be perfect.
The death anim is imba big, make it smaller.
+rep

Hey, it does look like the one in Arcanum! Only that one had dark black-green/golden colour... if I remember it well...

Woah! This is Cool

I beg your pardon?? O___o

Many random faces have flipped normals. That's why you set the materials TwoSided. Did you know that it doubles the polycount in-game?
The faces appear incorrectly probably because you created one by one and mirrored half of the model. To make the faces appear correctly without checking the TwoSided material option you should know that at each face you create, if the vertex flow is clockwise, it's going to be visible from the back, and it the vertex flow is counter-clockwise, it's going to be visible from the front.
Also, there are some repeated materials which you don't need there. They cost filesize. Of course, reduce the polycount and fix weird animations as everyone said.

Although it looks pretty good, the model is full of glitches. 2.5/5

very very vero good work ;D

I love this one !
Neat Idea !

nice and very creative.

Ah this looks awesome!

creative name oO

Nice, but can you make one of the "big boy" locomotives (the one with the short funnel) And also i personally would have put the colors black or gray.

Also it would be cool if you attached some coaches capable of holding units and have another coach that can attack.

Arcanum, this is awesome man.
