getting the 3D models of tanks and vehicles
« on: February 05, 2011, 05:17:52 PM »
Hi guys, first of all, I'm not an expert in coding or anything to do with creating video games, but I have an idea. I lokked into the web and found websites creating high quality ww2 model. And the fact that people donate for this mod, if the community can afford it the 3d Models could be bought via internet, and implement to the EF mod. I think it's neat model:

What do you guys think?

We already have our models and we won't be buying third part ones but thanks for the tip.

The poly count for those models is over half a million for each vehicle, there is no way they could be run in CoH since the poly limit is 6000.

It takes us minimal effort to create vehicles, the problems are Animations and Skinning.

Whoa. :o It would be so awesome to play Company Of Heroes with such detailed units... Oh well. :'( (It's not like my computer wouldn't explode, anyway...)

But, if you guys ever need more cash for anything, just let me know! ;)

Well pariah, now that you mention it, I could use some extra money, say, 10.000 would cover it I think? :P

I would like to be a student, but i'm afraid i've got nobody to teach me. :'(

And there isn't really much of a topic left anyway, since the developers said no for obvious reasons. :-\
