Why is it "hot pink?"

Probably because it was in Red Alert, dumbass.

How can it be blocky when it has 18 sides, and the sphere itself is made of a lot more than that?

Instead of changing the pole size, maybe change the texture of the sphere by making it see-through so it has the lighter weight look. Just a suggestion... Smile

...Right.

That really didn't make much sense.

Well then you need to go back to 4th grade and learn reading comprehension.

Does that 6 hours include your 5 hour and 45 minute break?

Nodbugger, you are a fucking forum troll.

Lol, you of all people can't tell anyone to learn how to read, you can't even make a complete sentence. :rolleyes:

Why would he need to go back to 4th grade to read that incoherent bull shit that you posted?

do u people really need complete sentences to read things? didnt u people learn about context clues? using sentence fragments to find the missing parts.

my suggestions, i think u should.....

make the support beams slightly thicker, the beams the wrap around the sphere slightly thicker. also from comparing the game pics and your render pics, you should either...

make the sphere larger and raise it some or make the base of it smaller in diameter.

becuase in the pic above the angle of the support beams seam to appear steeper than yours.

BTW, what is the current poly count?

That looks like a a damn gumball stuck in some tootpicks :rolleyes:

Overall: F grade.

You played Red Alert, and if you didn't notice, when you used the Iron Curtain it would turn hot pink.

Idiot.

Beam width isn't going to change, not at the moment. It's around 958 polygons.

Since when does reading equal making complete sentences? Ever hear of finishing a thought? Maybe I should of put 3 periods in front of it?

And what is so incoherant about it? Im not babbling, or writing random letters.

Fugudawaghs itsbe da po0btoon <-- Now that is incoherant

I just still cannot understand what took 6 hours to make that!?! Did you draw every single poly???

Um, I have Red Alert on right now, and the ball stays black the entire time, while charging, when ready and when used.

Alkaline, you are completely and utterly wrong. The Iron Curtain in that Red Alert movie turned hot pink, even the Iron Curtain's in-game icon shows the ball as hot pink.

Actually, even in ACK's first screenshot has the sphere a black color. If you have a screenshot of it red, pink, whatever, then that would prove it. Very Happy

Let's see.. Creating the ball, tracing the ball accurately to create the rings(with a box and extruding it, or with a tube with the correct sides, or whatever he used), creating the supports to look right, creating the boxes/tubes for the base, combining everything, welding vertices, poly cutting, and other misc. things, then UVW mapping the building, arranging all of the parts of the UVW map, than creating the texture BY HAND (not cutting/pasting pixelated images like you to create a skin), applying this texture and than taking it all into gmax/whatever to add the pulsating effects and shinyness etc.

(and maybe some more time to go back and do some modifications because a part doesn't look right, etc.)

How the hell would you know? That's right, you don't, and there is no way for you to know unless you can actually find a texture for download or whatever somewhere that matches his. You are so fucking ignorant. (Plus, you don't make your own textures, you just copy/paste images of guns and whatnot into your textures, so you have no room to talk.)

1100 polys took and about 30 minutes. All textures made with 3dsmax.

(And I made textures out of pictures. I edited them to make them look more texturish.) And just because I can't doesn't mean I can't say whether they are good or bad or whatever)

And that Iron Curtain looks like shit, too. It just barely resembles the images shown here from the game.

If you're going to try and show people up, the least you can do is try?

Lol, that looks fucking retarded.

That's pathetic, it took you 30 minutes to make some retarded little thing that barely looks like the Iron Curtain and isn't even close to being as good as this Iron Curtain, plus you didn't even create the textures, you just assigned the textures in 3dsmax. Lol... :rolleyes:

ok.. lets compare them:

the winners are:

The base of the structure - ACK
The supports - ACK
The Ball - ACK

*Desisions were based on overall allure and elegance of the object in quesiton.
