ut99 can not only handle up to a max. of 256x256 pixels, think of s3tc, so it's possible to go up to 4096x4096 lol, I'm often surprised that so less people know about the enhanced ogl/d3d render that is available around..Dark Pulse said:I've got a couple cases of UT2004->UT99 Models, but they all were polyshaven and of course, skins redone (As UT99 can only hand 256x256, 256 color, PCX-format textures.)
For the record, the default models are about 500 Polys, the ones in Bonus Pack 4 are about 750. A UT2004 Model is anywhere from 2000-3000.
Yes, but the Engine isn't built for it. Bring in 12 of those models in-view and you'll bog the game down - not the best thing to do in a firefight. And not everyone has cards that can handle the advanced OpenGL Renderers, whereas everyone can handle the 256x256x256 specs.FXD|Shadow said:ut99 can not only handle up to a max. of 256x256 pixels, think of s3tc, so it's possible to go up to 4096x4096 lol, I'm often surprised that so less people know about the enhanced ogl/d3d render that is available around..
ut99 can also handle models around 2000 polys, as along as it is not in mass-copy ut99 will do that
Tell me how to lock the camera in UT and I'll gladly take some pictures and the like.Olga said:CARE TO SHARE THOSE WITH US DP?!

Nahand said:... i still believe a UT2204 > UT models (player or *weapons*) should obviously be remade. Its nonsense to try a direct port of those, because of what has been said: too many polys, scale, etc... The point IMO, is if someone is willing to "convert" those to UT, meaning make similar (not direct port) of UT2004 weapons, that work right in all aspects, with UT. Thats it...
War_Master said:lol, so thats why hes not releasing it!
since UT2k4 models are smaller once imported into UT99 they will look like Midgets lol. I mean the model looks great and all now all it needs is to re-import it again and increase the size value of the mesh and will give him the best looking model for UT99 and ready to be released . Maybe with a voice pack too?
