I did do all the materials though.
These pics look outstanding! What did you do for the materials? Did you use the standard highlevel material class? How did you do the glow parts? I just want to know if this is how high-quality models will look in NA by default or if you're performing some custom shader kung fu here.
Top notch work here!
These are default NA shaders.
Also, I am not using textures/UV Mapping except for the Normal/Heightmap which is just a random texture i had laying around. Instead I am making a material and assigning it to the models Submeshes. In 3DS Max, everything i want to be one material will be a submesh, the next material will be a different submesh, etc. Very very easy to change models colors without ever having to open photoshop.
glow code is simple:
[code]
highLevelMaterial TurquoiseGlow
{
template = ShaderBaseMaterial
diffuseColor = 0 1 1
diffusePower = 2
reflectionColor = 1 1 1
reflectionPower = 0
specularColor = 1 1 1
specularShininess = 1
}
[/code]
"Candy" Material:
[code]
highLevelMaterial GreenCandyMetal
{
template = ShaderBaseMaterial
diffuseColor = 0.501961 0.501961 0
reflectionColor = 0 1 0.9490197
reflectionPower = 0.3
specularColor = 1 1 1
heightScale = 100
normalMap
{
texture = Types\Units\Renegades\Textures\Terrain\planet-001.jpg
}
heightMap
{
texture = Types\Units\Renegades\Textures\Terrain\planet-004-normal.png
clamp = True
}
}
[/code]
Metallic Black Material:
[code]
highLevelMaterial BlackAmazing
{
template = ShaderBaseMaterial
diffuseColor = 0 0 0
reflectionColor = 1 1 1
reflectionPower = 0.3
specularColor = 1 1 1
heightScale = 2
normalMap
{
texture = Types\Units\Renegades\Textures\Terrain\planet-001.jpg
clamp = True
}
heightMap
{
texture = Types\Units\Renegades\Textures\Terrain\planet-004-normal.png
clamp = True
}
}
[/code]
