The Harvester collects raw Tiberium and then transports it to refineries for processing. It is slow, heavily armoured and unarmed, meaning that it must be protected by other units though it is proficient at squishing enemy infantry.

Modelled and textured by Eric Kearns
Wheel model by Genocide and modified by me
Polycount: 1496

The specular lighting looks like crap on it, and the wheels were better the way they were before you messed them up too.

And you're welcome, still. The Harvester isn't slow. Try playing TD, it moves about the speed of a Medium Tank.

The lights on top do look a bit odd...nice job on the rust effect on the rear of the GDI unit.

to make a good specular color, you need to MeshSmooth to arround 2 Literations...or you might want to tesselate a little...but i dont know what will it look like...oh and dont forget to enable "NPatch" in W3D - will look better on ATI Radeon 9800 and newer Cards Wink

spec maps have their uses. but just cuase you figured out how to use them in Renegade does not mean you need to put them on everything.

But the Harvester had originally flat wheel planes that looked worse than this. I'm changing the wheel backside texture though.

Wrong, the Harvester moves at the speed of a Mammoth Tank. And Mammoths are slow. I just checked it.

All you had to do was select the edges and scale them inward, then weld the vertex points... And put the wheel texture on that. There was no need to fuck up the wheels.

Blazer, he didn't do anything on that vehicle except add those light meshes in the front. All of it was done by Eric Kearns.

Interesting but...
Sorry, you're wrong again.

GDI's Harvester:

My oppinion , the specular lighting does look like shit on it. Itas worn and torn metal not brand new car paint. Also the wheels do need more sides.

I think thats bad use of the specular.

Does specular have to applied to the whole model or such a large area?

specular looks best on high-poly First-Person Weapon Models.With applied Tesselation and NPatch for ATI TruForm Cards.

me too, but thats not the point.
Test how it will look by applying "Tesselate" first and if it looks good (not smashed or deformed), apply NPatch.That way people with more high-end computers will return good feedback about the mod Wink

Ha ha.

He's got a point, specular looks weird.


"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)

"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)

Yeah, having a shiny Harvester that is simultaneously rusted and dirty doesn't look quite right... I suggest removing it.
