Buildings inside and out.

JRL101

@bilal shouldn't be long before i texture this one, Animation how ever may take longer. (for the buildings/units etc) Considering i have no clue where to start. I'll stick to building the tracked units first before i attempt walking cycles.

@JRL101 You know, I think units are teleported outside the factory when they're built. That might explain why there's no door!

Just look at the APCs, for example - they teleport machines inside/outside of theirselves when they're taking/dropping them. There are no hatchways at all in the Armored Personnel Carriers (the things on their backs might be considered to be hatchways, but remember how they deploy the units, though - that is, they drop'em down from the front, not from the back).

So I guess I made your job easier now?

@JRL101
Most of the animation for units with tracks or hover is just going to be the guns moving backward as the unit fires, which I can do. I've done a bit of animation and modeling before for several games.

Mind you the animation is a lot easier for me, so I can get some basic ones out if a unit model is there.

@Encrypted Most yes, but i was considering giving all the buildings interiors for the purpose of letting a scientist/spy into the building to speed it up/steal upgrades/disable it.

@bilal Easy, if you know more about animating/rigging, i'll just make the static unit and link it when they're ready.

@JRL101 Hey There is here a Folder with all the 3d Models of the game that the one i use for make my model, i was a bit busy with work and stuff and could been here ID

Here is the Link with all the models http://download.wiredforwar.org/Game/Machines Models %26 Textures.zip
That Judas Get

Also, NICE MODELING DUDE YA HAVE A LOT OF TALENT :D

@Ddc_Cl already have that, problem is some of the units have parts all over the place, then when you open the files the mesh is all kinds of messed up. I've been using them for rough scales, but honestly i'm better off just re-making them from images. Most of the folders are also named weirdly. so finding the right ones its problematic.

@JRL101 Yeh at first glance look like a full mess of folder but its sorted
generally the Unit main Body is in the folder, Administ (Like command) the aggressor, average attack unit (Reaper, Grunt) and then the building, Factory, the Pod, beacon.
I think that is a bit more easy using the old model as a reference for the new
also for the unit just focus on the base and movement way (IE: Grunts wheels) instead of the Weapon, those make it in a diferent file, cuz the weapon are added as diferent file/Model so not gonna model different unit using blaster, bolt, minigun ETC

JRL101

@Ddc_Cl the models are still arranged with all the parts centered.
The heads are also separate. and they all see to share textures too.

@JRL101
There are a bunch of screenshots of units here taken a long time ago: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3hJvIPdNZp-YmVkZjA4NGYtZGYyZC00NjMzLWFjNDItNzg5YjE0MjZlZmE0

Unfortunately, it's not all of them, which is a little weird because I thought we took more.

@bilal Useful! Thankyou. Some are missing top views or some front views, but they'll do for now.

@JRL101 hey how how many polygons have the building?
