Files

All blend files for the train live in $SVNROOT/lib/models/vehicles/

  • train.blend (currently the old version, this is what links to files)
  • train_interior.blend ( for act II)
  • train_lowRes.blend (maybe defunct)
  • train_prog.blend (new design, ultra high poly model by Josh, needs cleanup, rigging, reduction)
  • train_mid_prog.blend ( aborted midway progress of reduction of high poly train)

Tasks

  • Investigate: Understand what lives where
  • Delete redundancies in in-progress work
  • Organize in-progress work: object names, layers, groups, layernames.
  • Finish In progress low and mid polification.
  • Rig train models (all)
  • create final groups for linking
  • test to make sure we stay compatible (or that modifications are doable) for files linking to the old train model.
  • drop the new model in for the old in scenes.
  • create subgroups esp. for ultra HI poly versions.
  • Begin materials and texturing.

Notes

train_prog.blend

  • contains engine and carriage models, with optional 'utra-high' poly details such as rivets and screws.
  • Prefixes:
    • LOW eg: LOW01536 is a high poly part!
    • DET eg: DET01536 is a detail for the corresponding high poly part, e.g. a rivet.
    • LND eg: LND01536 means 'low no detail' version of the high poly part.
  • Bakes: an attempt to bake AO onto LND parts is in $SVNROOT/lib/maps/vehicles/train
  • DET are parented to their LOW parts.
  • some detail layer objects do not relate to LOW parts.
  • Layers: Note: numbering here starts from 1
    • 6: engine body high poly (LOW and LND objects)
    • 7 engine body ultra high poly (corresponding DET objects and others)
    • 16 engine undercarriage high poly (LOW and LND objects)
    • 17 engine undercarriage ultra high poly (corresponding DET objects and others)
    • 8 carriage body high poly (LOW and LND objects)
    • 9 carriage body ultra high poly (corresponding DET objects and others)
    • 18 carriage undercarriage high poly (LOW and LND objects)
    • 19 carriage undercarriage ultra high poly (corresponding DET objects and others)
    • 20 bevel profiles etc
  • TODO in this file: fix some DET scale/position problems on the top resulting from scaling parts. Rig/check rig for functionality.

train_mid_prog.blend

  • Initially a copy by josh of layers 6, 16, 8, 18 from train_prog.blend, "which I was going through, object by object, deleting

detail to create a mid poly version. It should be fairly obvious which objects are at a mid-poly level of detail and which aren't. You might want to review whether the level of detail I was going for is appropriate for a mid poly version?"

  • Names and positions should be identical, hopefully to aid in texture baking.
  • TODO: possible sync of high and low poly versions?
