itchboy Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Amazing work. Probably the best looking firefighter ped models in Em4 right now. A question though, how many polygons per model and what is the filesize of the texture? Having nice units has its drawbacks too. Too high of a polycount or too high res of a texture will cause performance issues, especially when having 20 firefighters on screen when ingame.

TimTim Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Hey everyone, the Polycount of the helmet was 1089 Polys. The texture size can pack the texture file to dds to load it faster.with greets,Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyson Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Very very nice, about time someone did some U.S. Firefighter models we've been way behind the Germans on that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Graphic Designs Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 I have something similar planned...I have a ton of personnel ideas and I even managed to do 3 new working personnel models with Zmod3, but the license expired and I don't have patience to reactivate it... The only thing left is Hop's tutorial, notepad and Zmod2 but I just can't get the tutorials to work correctly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're interested, PM me. In relation to the topic, I think that a 1000 poly helmet by itself along with an HD person skin would probably hurt the game FPS on weaker systems.

TimTim Posted September 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 That's a big misconception, In Germany we are using those "high-poly" models quite often and we got no problems with this. E.g. we are compressing/packing every model and texture for the "Bieberfelde modification".Due this workflow every person i know got a pretty decent perfomance.

itchboy Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 That's a big misconception, in Germany are used this so much and we got no problems with it at least the Bieberfelde Modification. All skins and 3-D models are packed and so you got a very good perfomence Over the years, I've come to learn that packing actually makes load times longer because the game has to "unpack" the files for it to be able to load the models and skins. My principle in general is to keep it as simple and low as possible, but making sure that it looks good from the perspective of ingame Em4. It may look dirty in editor, but once you are ingame, most people do not notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
