Metal texture

[SVB]

Made a metal texture for a game, had to have blood on the right of it. What do you think?

[Inochi]

woah..that looks so real *shock*

[Derf]

that looks really good. Looks very real

[SVB]

cool :-D it wasnt supposed to look real, meant to be a game graphic :-p

[Rizande]

that looks god, what type of game is it for.

you should use the burn toll to make the blood look like it is actually on top of the metal instead of just hovering over it, for example, use the burn tool over a blood spot that is in the crease of metal to give it shadow, but good job

yeah good tip, but this is going on a model in 3DS max, and so the rivits in the metal will actually be there in 3D, and the blood will move with them.

awsome, what stage of the development are you in, and what are you doing in the development process, i know a few guys that do that

Looks great. How bout touching up the blood with a burn brush a bit?

Currently just making models and graphics. Still deciding on what 3D engine to use, have a couple in mind. Ive made demo levels each level using Quake 3 maps to compare them, so hopefully ill pick one soon :-D

Torque is good for a high quality engine. I use it and really enjoy it.

[SVB]

Ill try it out, thanks for that :-D

[Emancipator]

No problem at all. I use it and if you want help with 2d graphics I am sure I can possibly help when I have spare time. I have a fair bit of game development experience on indi games.

[SVB]

Ill try out the demo of Torque first. What is it best for? Or what should i try in the demo to see its features?

[Emancipator]

Well it is primarily best for First Person, the engine is outstanding, but you can do anything with it.

[SVB]

Is torque much better than any free engines which have similar features?
I have one free engine that seems very good, supports all sorts of things, 3ds files, physics engine, lighing effetcs etc.
Then theres a few good looking commercial ones.

I think you should make the red darker...
