Currently i'm stuck working With Gmax, seeing as they don't sell 3ds Max 4 anymore...but this is the newest version of Gmax, so I'm not even sure i'll be able to make models with it...

But...in the meantime...I'll see what I can get done with this.

Last time I tried making this model, someone ripped the texture from me and made their own model with it (sucky one btw) ='/

It's looking pretty good. But please upload wireframes too.

And shouldn't this be in the WIP section?

 

[Redsonic]

The thing is, i'm not sure if this version of GMAX Will be compatible with Warcraft 3.

(Curse you Gmax, for not having Rendering abilities!)

 

[xXm0RpH3usXx]

way too high poly!

 

[Pyritie]

Yes, gmax is compatible with WC3. I've made a pancake model and a golf ball model, both crudely animated, but they work in wc3.

Although you probably need the IK animation baker and stuff; look at sticky for it.

 

[Redsonic]

The download links in the sticky don't work.

 

[Pyritie]

I know. Wc3c is down at the moment; they're moving servers. Just have to be patient, I guess :/

Nice that you're still working on the Sonic model.

How many polygons does this model have? A unit suitable for Warcraft should be less than 1000 (preferably less than 700-800).

You can still get "3DS Max 5" in a not-so-legal way.

Anyways, keep working.

Like in Russia?

In soviet russia 3dsmax owns YOU !... i had to say it.

Nice model btw i have seen far to many sonic requests.

red fucking nice pm me or send it to me by email.

 

[HappyTauren]

1. it isnt suited for wc3. why? because even hand is high poly! in wc3 you cant model fingers, nor you can model eyes with such design as you do... this MIGHT though, be a special model for cinematics... but who would make cinnie with sonic?

Look out Dan, looks like Mario has something else to fear other than a fire-breathing turtle and ghosts with social problems.

+rep!

 

[Redsonic]

Still waiting for wc3c to come back up

 

[modler2]

Isnt this model ....2 years old now hmm?

and it does have too much polies.

btw, he has no elbows.. and i wouldnt suggest giving it to people if it has so called been stolen before.

 

[Deleted member 126647]

Sonic has never had elbows.

As long as he has more than one poly long arm meshes, then he'll be fine for animation I expect.

 

[Kimbo]

he needs elbows or anims will be awkard, and i know sonic has no literal elbows.. =_=

 

[Dr Super Good]

That model looks imported, especially the way it his the bounce bracelet and the other ring from SA1/2.

Well if it is not, I recomend removing them and adding atachments points for them since some people might not want a SA1/2 sonic with items.

Also there is nothing wrong with a high poly sonic model, since the average graphic card can easily handle 1000s of polies. The only problem is the file size. Try and make the model 100 KB, never excede 500KB or it is just too big.

Yep. But as you can tell from the screenshot, I improved the model some. =]

I gave up working on it when SOMEONE tried to steal the texture for their own sonic model. But, I figure Gmax might work. But it isn't working.

I'm stuck and cannot use ART TOOLS, since my version of Gmax is too high.

I'm not sure what to do...

 

[Pyritie]

Meh, art tools are only good for exporting, particles, and ribbons.

Everything else you can pretty much do just fine with gmax.

Gmax doesn't even have proper rendering tools.

Until the links in the sticky of Wc3c work, i'm done.

 

[Pyritie]

Is rendering really all that necessary if the models are gonna be viewed outside of gmax?
