Andrew's Thesis

[andrewG]

So my thesis book was due today. So this past weekend was my deadline for it. Thanks for all the help and feed back I got. It help out a lot.

Here are some of the images of my project I used in my book.

Here is the environment.

Here is one of the characters. I created a game model and textured him.
Tri count 3096
1- 512x512 map

Here is the 2nd character.
I created a game model and a Z-Brush sculpt for the normal map.
Tri count: 6530
1 - 512x512 map

Here is the last model. I just created the game model and a Z-Brush sculpt, no texture map.
Tri count: 5928

Epic post, Andrew. Congrats on finishing.

As far as getting a job goes, theres still a way to push this to make it top shelf, but solid collection of work.

Now you just need to choose environment or characters

:P

Nothing short of inspiring. Congrats on finishing this massive endeavor, it's beautiful. :D

Hey Andrew. Great work. I'd still try to add more of the smaller details - rocks, bushes, etc. (on your own time, I know you're finished with the presentation... and if you're not sick of it yet)

Is there a chance you might be able to explain or point to a tutorial explaining how to bake the texture maps for your terrain to show in real time in the viewport (that's what it looks like u have going).

Thx, G

[andrewG]

yea I was planning on creating a tutorial for that. I just ran out of time the last few weeks. Just got back form visiting the Fam for Thanksgiving and taking a nice relaxing week off. So hopefully I'll get it done this coming weekend.

Thank you so much.

So I had my thesis presentation today. They liked my project and passed me. I now have my masters. YEA!

I posted the lightmap tutorial I created up in the tutorial thread. Check it out.
