That is what this challenge seems to be about...jumping in and just making some stuff, whether something relatively simple or complex.  If you're big on scripting, I'm sure there's gotta be something elf-specific that could use something new that builders can just import and use.

Wow, those elven heads look great! I'd like to use that software, so I could build my old player's D&D group, with their faces! hah!

The software is "FaceGen" With the "500 Poly real-time" model set, for Low-Poly models. But its made only bald heads models, you have to do the rest by your own... 

[Shemsu-Heru]

Excuse me, I have a problem with the Arwen's heads. In a far distance appears this annoying line in the middle of the face; And i don't know what is the cause i only know that this is not a problem with the texture...

[Zwerkules]

The picture is a little small, so it's not easy to see what's wrong, but it doesn't look like a gap in the head model and you said the texture is applied properly. It could be a problem with smoothing. Try placing a PC with a torch next to your models at night and see if the dark line gets broader or narrower depending on where the torch is. Then it's likely a problem with smoothing groups, like one half of the face's smoothing group is set to 1 and the other half to 2.

[Shemsu-Heru]

Thanks, I'll try, I could made a bigger picture, because this line only appears in far distance....

need to weld those verts

[_six]

The line there is a mipmapping issue. NWN roughly uses what's often called trilinear filtering, where as part of the process to make things in the distance look nicer, a lower res version of the texture is used in the distance. From the looks of it, that's causing the detail from one side of the texture to overlap and affect the other side, as the lower resolution means the pixels are less accurate to your UVs (if that makes sense).

Probably the best solution is to always have a few pixels spare at the edges of textures. A retroactive solution is to drag your UVs away from the edge of the texture a little, possibly modifying the texture a bit so this doesn't create any negative effects.

Exactly what six said, you want to have what we call "padding" on the texture so that when the texture is in the distance the UV doesn't expand to the point of overlap.

Nah. Them gems came from yer Gem Override hak. 

I did change the texture ta use the 1.69 gem textures an' I had quite a few flipped normal issues. I'll be lookin' at Tiberius' gems fer the ruby, amethyst, topaz, emerald and large sapphires fer that same reason.

As fer makin' stuff, Do it.
Gets the juices flowin an' yer ideas get made, even if only a piece at a time.

The vertex was welded by sure. Probably Six & Paganini was right I had "padded" it; And even when the line wasn't gone it's seems to be reduced.


Thanks to every body.

I have made a Phial of star light; "The light of Eärendil". It's in three versions: Blue, silver and gold.

This is nothing amazing but it's cool, i think...

Here is my last addition, the shield of Gil-Galad ->

Shemsu-Heru: Items, torches - Elven light vials

I admit that the shape is similar to a vial, but The Silmarils are ancient elven gems...

[Rolo Kipp]

<covering his face...>

Hah! I just skimmed it and looked at the image. Thought you were doing the vial of star light Galadriel gave Frodo... :-P

I'll fix ;-)

Yes, it's exactly what i have done, but i always have thought that it's a silmaril, maybe i'm wrong....

[Rolo Kipp]

<feeling the pressure...>

It's been a very long time, but I seem to remember the vial she gave Frodo was derivative of the silmarils, but the silmarils themselves were long gone (end of 2nd age?).

Any JRRT scholars want to clarify?

Minor point, but I dig this stuff ;-)

<...of too many years>

[Rolo Kipp]

<cracking open...>

From the wiki -
"The Phial of Galadriel was given by Galadriel to Frodo Baggins as a light to use in dark places. It was a crystal phial filled with water from her fountain which held the light of Eärendil's star. "

<...a wiki-fortune cookie>

[Shemsu-Heru]

OK, sorry it's been a long time when i had read "The lord of the rings". Them you should write again "vials" instead of "Silmarils"
