thetanman Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Nuns, here is the model of the castle. I hope that you don't change the whole thing because I worked very hard on this! PPeachCastle.mdl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetanman Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 what are we going to do about the wings? i can't get them to open in the choreography. mage i think you need to send them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrury Sanson Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Do you have glow on for the mushroom? Or maybe radiance? It looks too bright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetanman Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 i don't have either of that on. all that it has is a specularity. and it is set at 25%. maybe it is the lighting, but i have changed that around so many times, and it still looks the same.

Nunsofamerica Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 um, you need to post a compressed folder with the castle and all the decals in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrury Sanson Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I've added bulbs to the ceiling. Do we know who's animating this segment? & Do I need to make an extra wall/floor for behind the door? So Luigi doesn't look like he's coming in from nowhere land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nunsofamerica Posted April 27, 2007 Author Share Posted April 27, 2007 Heath Naylor will be. I will be able to send him the model when its done. I talk to him on yahoo. And yes, it would be good to have just a simple hallway like structure behind the door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jequed Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Mario isn't opening correctly for me. I keep getting a message that says: Error in model file, spline attachement. anchor= 262145 cp= 1 Attmepting to continue. This is just a hand model that tido had posted earlier. Someone else could check to see if it works for them and if it does then my version must not be high enough. http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?act=A...st&id=25308 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tido Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 That is strange caus Nuns is able to open the mario model, he is the 1 who sent me copy I had to work on because I lost the final version... I'm on version 13 (with the Yeti cd) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_black_mage Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 hey everyone, sorry i've been gone again. my aunt has cancer and we traveled from Florida all the way to Oklahoma to see her! any i've seen the progress and i like the castle! as of the wings i'll link them a again but this time i'll do it a bit differently. the fact that the wings are a lower version than you guys could be the cause of the problem...tell me exactly what happens when you try to load the wing model.... and i'm still waiting on the update my mom should have gotten months ago... also i like the new site, but once i update that header image has got to go! and i still don't like letting the possibly largest forum on the hash forums just die out.....

the_black_mage Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 hows this man? If you put it on the site i would like credit for it some ware..... ---------- after reading some more i realized something, how come you guys arent backing up your files? you should have a minimum of 3 copies for every single model, material, project file or what ever, if you don't you'll be sorry......

Chrury Sanson Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Thanks for the reminder. All Backed up on my end. BTW, why 3 copies? protection against coincidence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_black_mage Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Thanks for the reminder. All Backed up on my end. BTW, why 3 copies? protection against coincidence? for three cases(or more): 1. you lose the file 2. the file some how is corrupted 3. you messed up something and ended up saving it 4. some thing very random and extraordinary..... 3 is better than two at anytime in fact for important models i make, i have around 5 copies some in ZIP files. (what do you think of the header?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jequed Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 I have v13 with the yeti cd too. I was able to open a model by tanner which appeared to have the same version as mario. The only difference: Tido's: ProductVersion=13.08 Release=13.0o PC Tanner's: ProductVersion=13.08 I ave v.13.04. Not sure how this will help me open mario but i was wondering if tanner was able to open the hand model. ...and i have at least 5 copies of luigi.

the_black_mage Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 so you need a newer version then...newer models aren't compatible with an older A:M is that the version you bought? if so you can upgrade to v14.... when you buy a new A:M you get one year of free updates, if you bought v13 you can get v14 updates..... do you have the oz cd? http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=27765 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetanman Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 hey black mage! i like that you like the castle. i will post an update later. btw where did you travel to in oklahoma? i live in oklahoma. that would have been neat to meet each other!! sorry about your grandma too. my grandma just found out that she has cancer not too long ago. she has cervical cancer. she is doing good though.

Jequed Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Yes, i bought v13 but i don't have the oz cd. So then if i got v14 updates then i would be able to get mario? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_black_mage Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Yes, i bought v13 but i don't have the oz cd. So then if i got v14 updates then i would be able to get mario? try this one you should have the yetti cd if not the oz. http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=27390 and yeah that should work, older models work with newer ones no problem(in most cases).

the_black_mage Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 nuns what do you think of the image i made? and tanman two things i don't like the sky....thats the two things.... here, make it a material as a projection map..... this can only be added to a sphere.... if this ones too realistic than try to find a better one.... curry seriously purple/pink? kinda tacky to me, isn't that the mens room?....but nice job overall....

thetanman Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 i dont' know how to do a projection map, plus i wasn't really intending on using that sky anyways. i just put that there just to make the whole scenery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_black_mage Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 a projection map is a material under the hash tab. it allows an image to be applied like a material and go onto the shape of what ever model you want, it a way to add texture...

the_black_mage Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 is this a boys or a girls bath room? and the lighting you have is just for the test right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrury Sanson Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Boys (Toads) room. There are very few womens rooms that have urinals. Everything is subject to change. I would be willing to upload the project if you wish to light it yourself. Otherwise, I need some 'lighting enclosed spaces' tips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_black_mage Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 ok well one since its a boys room(and didn't notice the urinals lol) then and purple or pink color is not acceptable...now if you want a light color and shade of blue is ok. as of the lighting hers what you do, it requires a lot of lights but it should be effective. you have the bulbs at the roof i see, so go ahead an put kleig lights on those reaching half-way(or almost) to the floor and the softness of 100%. do that with all the lights. after that the place will still be pretty dark. all you need is allot of low intensity bulb lights all over the room each one is non specularity and does not cast shadows. put them any ware necessary to lighten up dark areas. another thing is for your kleig lights turn the shadows to z bufferd then set the shadow softness to around 30% or 50%, doing this gives a kinda ambient occlusion look. you can also set the shadow darkness any ware from 60% to 30%. try adding you own stuff you think might work, but these are things that i use. soft and light shadows and a couple of bulbs were used for the living room scene i made(non radiosity one). but that one was for one angle, so try and make the room acceptable from all angles(or all the necessary ones anyway)...hope this helps...

Chrury Sanson Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 {Capitalization would've helped that paragraph.} "Cough" I'll see what I can do for the lighting but there has got to be a better way. That would be around 20 lights! I'll try it but it sounds awfully inefficient. As for the sink: is that better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_black_mage Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 much better... as of in efficient, unless you want to use radiosity and have every frame render for 5 hours+ (which is a total under statement, that living room scene i did [the one with radiosity] took 18 hours to render, the worst part is that it didn't turn out right) then this is pretty much the only way. if you get the settings right you will only need the bulb lights to lighten dark areas of models and not shadows. doing this allows for efficient render times, it may be alot of lights but really its not that bad. just think about how dark areas would be in a real life situation and take as many short cuts as possible without sacrificing a looking render. remember lighting is one of the most important stages, if you do it badly/lazily than all that other hard work wont be done justice... sorry i kinda rush type lol....if there wasn't a spell check on firefox you wouldn't know what i just typed at all....
