Crazy Bug

So i unwrapped my track only to have it bug out on me so i may have to do it again YAY! Hopefully i will get it done by tonight, with the amount of time left i think i will have to throw a rush job texture. It will look good but not have the infomation on the texture i wanted such as road gaurds and arrows. The car is in good shape but i am having trouble making it run in unity. The code i am using is causing the tire to rotate to rotate end over end instead of a more natural car tire rotation. I will have to figure that out tomorrow as im about to head to bed!

Good progress but issues with Eurika

So everything went pretty swell this weekend. Got to talk to my mentor about future projects, finished texturing Eurika, and my prototype car.

Tuesday in class is where the issues arouse. I was rigging my character and it was going fine. I had to manually go through and weight the uvs because the envolopes where everywhere. I noticed that the shoulder were having troubles working with the clothes as well as the bones causing her to look really bow armed. I tried to fix it and it was going alright untill the skin stopped attaching to the bones completely. I don't really want to delete the bones but at this point i may have too.

Eurika, a good checker board or not?

This is my female model update. I am happy with the way she looks as a checker board. Still needs a little work as the uv's have not been merged to make them seamless. I cant wait to start texture her as i have never made a full character model before. She will have a green and purpleish color palette for her clothes and have maybe have some interresting skin texutre because of the background of where she lives. Hoping to have her unwrapped and have the base texture on her by the end of the weekend!

Shots of the car

The car is a little rough around the edges (literally) but its coming along. Its got a couple of seems that still need work just from the shots and the normal is useless. The only place it affects is the tire treads. So will have to remake it.

My little Bumble Bee

I have finally started texturing my car! Its fully unwrapped and it was actually a pretty easy process. The diffuse texture is pretty much done. I am trying to figure out a way to add a nice nice shiny finish to my car but it just looks flat right now. I will post up the model of my car with the textures on it and the crazy bumb maps. They need some work before they will look good.

Update on game project

What i showed in class is pretty much where i am right now i just thought i would share in better detail what i plan to do with this project.

The track will indeed be finished and i started the unwrapping process for my car after two weeks of delay. I really got into the character i am building and put this project a little bit on the back burner. I have faith in my modeling process and i believe that i will be able to catch back up on my milestones. Unwrapping the track will be easy but in the unity demo that i have it also multiple unwraps on the same model and i have an idea of how it works but i need to talk to Amanda or some that would be able to help me.

eeary situation

Working the ear for the first time and its looking good. Its clean, has no tri's and everything is coming together well and should be easy to attach to eurika's head. Will hopefully have this finished by the night!
