Sawdbuster Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Nice, I like the units. I also like how you're keeping it small. Great job so far!! Are you going to use NNico's F350 from QRA for the ambulance? or are you going to make one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handsup! Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Is that a rotator on top of a bar? That's insane. Anyway, it's highly accurate, good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, it's highly accurate, good job!Yes it is, and indeed it looks kinda funny! .What do you guys think about Hawaii Five-0? Should I include vehicles from that tv-series even if they aren't accurate to the real thing? Post your thoughts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred03 Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Perhaps after the release you could make a extra vehicles pack (like the Ravenna mod) and that could have the Hawaii Five-0 units in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xandarb Posted March 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Good day! And good tease day! Well, today I'll show you a model that I completed just a few minutes ago. Texturing is about to begin sooner or later. The unit in question is the ATV that I'll use both for the lifeguards and the police.Some images of the real life unit(s):Police ATV army greenAnother Police ATV army green (and red )Lifeguard ATV redAnd now to my unit: Only skinning and some in-editor work (and a lightbar for the police unit) left to do:Click for higher rez.I got kinda carried away and noticed that the polycount shot to the stars (over 5K). I managed to cut down quite a lot but it's still quite high. What would be a good polycount for Em4? I read somewhere here that 3K is a good rule of thumb.Feel free to give me feedback!Cheers!

Freelancer Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Nice model,when ever I make a model for Em4 I always keep the poly count between 9K to 12K and I don't get any problems May I recommend you use a tool like 3ds max it's much better for modelling than Zmodeler and saves a lot of time.RegardsFreelancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erfd Posted March 16, 2013 Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 Another thing you can do is right click on your model and convert the triangle polys into quads. It usually lowers the poly count pretty good and makes UV-mapping easier down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will look into that!Another thing you can do is right click on your model and convert the triangle polys into quads. It usually lowers the poly count pretty good and makes UV-mapping easier down the road.Yeah, that cut down almost 30% of the polycount! Thanks erfd!
