Hey, I was just wondering, about something. How do you make the promo mpeg movies? Do you use a program that captures whatever's on screen, or is it more expensive than that? I'm in the mood to make one for my squad, but I want to make it like I'd make a proper film, by recording various bits and then editing them together (I'm an A Level Media Studies student, I have to be awkward and artsy ).

@TS are all thoes Rivets and such on the tail Modeled on or are they the result of really good Texturing?

Textures.

As evisc mentioned...textures...however, the model will still be of a higher poly count than the BIS model due to the extra features of the shape of the helo.

Also...just a minor note...the texture you saw in my previous post is a HI-RES texture...ie. 1024....we will be moving to 512 to prevent lag with the addon so although we will try and preserve as much texture detail as we can, the final product may not look as sharp as the pic I just showed.

Pic was more just to illustrate how much time and detail is being put into this bird.

will there be the dap version? ;D

(I'm not revealing the types oh UH60s at this stage).

Which part of the above statement did you not understand?

[viper172]

ok sorry i did't read it before posting again sorry man :'(

I hope you make a generic improved UH-60 too (so I can swap it in the game with BIS's)

i always thought the texture size was togglable through preferences, so you could actually get 1024 textures if you wanted.

No, that sets the maximum texture sizes, so if an addon used 1024 textures and you had it set at 512 it would scale them down, scaling them up doesnt improve quality whatsoever.

You never know...we will have a couple of pleasant surprises in the release.
