Redesigning the Logo

[ai]

Yeah, the particle system and dynamics are reaaally fun to play with Many hours will fall victim if you're not careful enough
But as far as the particle thingies would work for Nexuiz I do not know. Never tried that for a game. But you just maybe meant playing with it not actually include it in the model. For show it would be great though.

[Ivan]

Yeah, for show was what I had in mind.

tZork & Ivan's logo is nice, though the old one looks more professional.
You should work on the especially on the texture and lighting.

sup people
Just letting you know that I am still alive. I just finished my midterms and that means I have time to work on nexuiz stuff. I am beveling the edges to that logo now. It is a bit complex because I have to clean up a lot of that geometry, but it is coming along.

[ai]

I actually can't wait to see the result. And I rarely get excited about stuff like this. But I also think why I am.. and that's a secret.

That would make an awesome rune

for some reason, after beveling the edges and applying bump mapping, the bump map gets really distorted. I might just skip the beveling and smooth the edges in final cut pro.

Those sawteeth look like the result a sharp edge in your bumpmap. If your bumpmap started as a picture of the nex 'n' you may want to stroke it.

Have you tried mapping the whole object? I would guess planar would do the trick, and if it still is a little distorted you could always go in there and move UV's yourself. As a rule always when you bevel objects the mapping disappears and you have to make one yourself. Using the already mapping options helps in creating it in a fast way.

I dont get why you all are trying to make the logo in 3D, Vector for example, might be a much more fitting format for a logo.

Love the one by morphed tho.
