Maloskero's Brazilian BAT's

[SAVAGExPHOENIX 955]

 

Ah, yes, that looks like a rendering issue.  I'm sure some of the experienced BATers in this forum may have a solution, unfortunatley I'm clueless when it comes to actual BAT problems.  

Oh well, guess I'll have to look for some help in the forums. Thank you very much SimCoug 

 

Sorry for the little slowdown on the project my friends, but as I stated, I'm having serious issues with Zoom 1 and I want to fix it before moving on, hope you guys understand me 

 

 

I ran into this issue as well. You forgot to un-check "convert units" when you imported your LODs into gmax. It happened to me on my first BAT attempt.

Definitely try that, but I'm not sure its that. Usually that just results in microscopic BATs (you would see just a tiny dot)...

 

This looks like a normal LOD glitch error. I would try opening a new session of 3DS Max and import/merge everything from your current scene - except for any lightrigs or LODs etc - then apply new lights and LODs. Finally, group everything, including the LODS, and make sure its set to coordinates 0-0. See if that works.

 

Failing that, you might need to try reinstalling GMAX and the BAT, but not sure if that will work either. This happened to me, for about a year I was transferring my exports from one machine to another because the BAT didn't work on this one, but did on an old one, then I rebuilt this one and now it works on this one. As you say, its a bit finicky sometimes

 

Good luck, these are really great would be a shame if you can't fix this problem.

Thank you guys for the help, but unfortunately it's not working   .

 

Hello to all, as I said, I'm having serious issues with bat4max wich is causing me to slow down my work. Righ now I'm searching for another version of 3dsmax, hope this change helps. Wish me luck 

[Bastet69008 1,102]

That's a pity! I was expecting a new update Well in any case good luck! I really hope this project will be alive soon!

[Maloskero 436]

Helloooooooooo everyone, long time no see!

Please don't get your hopes up, but... I am trying my luck with BATting once again (thanks to Bastet), and I expect to revive this thread soon with pictures of my new models. Once again, please wish me luck because BAT4max, altough beatifull, can be quite a $%&^!. Thank you everyone and please forgive for my long absence

Great news!! Welcome back

[T Wrecks 10,210]

Wow! I thought this was a stupid bump, but you're actually back! I hope you get BAT4Max set up and working fine because it would be such a pity if all the talent and skill you've shown thus far didn't end up in a final product. Keeping my fingers crossed for ya!

Thank you guys! I'm glad to be back and I'm hopping I can really finish my brazilian BAT's this time!

 

So far I've had a few problems with renderings but nothing that halted progress in my work. So, I wish to present you a little preview on my new houses!

 

I sincerely hope you guys enjoy my new stuff as I'm really making a great effort on bypassing the technical issues I'm having so far.

I also think I owe everyone a explanation for my long absence: I've had serious problems with my computer, I've lost all my SC4 files, had to start over from scratch, it was infuriating, so I decided I would step back form the modding scene. But I've recently bought a new machine and decided to give another try on BATting, I hope this time all goes well.

 

Thanks everyone for visiting this thread! Muito obrigado mesmo!

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Looking really good! I also hope everything goes well from now

[JulioC 2,581]

Yes, it's really getting good. Keep it up!

 

Boa Sorte amigo!

[Huston 5,799]

This is too good to pass up. Hope you get those shipped to the STEX soon It's beautiful work.

[jmsepe 2,039]

Nice new creation, looking good as a filler for SEA and SA cities.

[Bastet69008 1,102]

My reaction when I saw the houses

 

 

Well well, you have been out of the BAT business for a few months now, but you haven't lost your skills! In my opinion you even improved!

Compared to the colonial homes you did a few months ago, the roof texturing is much cleaner, it is very neat. The details on the left building are very well made and give an even better feeling of realism. Keep up the good work, I really hope you will be able to render and export everything this time!

 

 

Edit: Are these buildings from Garanhuns?  Also, just a small suggestion, I would had Satellite dishes and water tanks on some of the houses

[Toothless Stitch 2,901]

For some reason you keep reminding me of Hamish ... mhh ....

Many thanks to all of you guys! I hope to release a pack of BAT's by the end of february, if everything goes as expected. Special thanks to my countryman, muito obrigado!

Muito obrigado meu amigo  ! That picture you posted reminded me why I chose the neoclassical arcgitecture before, it's simply too amazing to be forgotten. Well, I hope I can meet to your expectations my friend,

I am really trying to improve myself   . The houses I've made so far are based mainly on houses of Juazeiro do Norte-CE and Garanhuns-PE, soon I will include some variantes from Caruaru-PE and Campina Grande-PB. As about the water tanks and Sattelite dishes, I decided to make them separate props so the LOTter may have an easier time costumizing the buildings on the LOT.

 

For some reason you keep reminding me of Hamish ... mhh ....

 

Sorry, but I didn't understand that, hahahaha, was that a compliment? Anyway, thanks for visiting and don't forget to come back  !

 

So, everyone, I'm here to make another little preview on my recent work, hope you like!

 

 

Please leave your comments, they are all very aprecciated! Thanks everyone for the attention and forgive me for my english, I'm not a native speaker

 

PS: Everything here is W.I.P and may be slightly altered in the final release

[Bastet69008 1,102]

Awesome! Great to know you'll make some Campina Grande buildings! Orgulho Nordestino

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Looking great!

[Huston 5,799]

[JulioC 2,581]

It really is very good. I liked the roof, was very good these textures!

Wow, don't compare me to Harishna, that man was a monster, I remember him trying to recreate some mexican BAT's, he was just an amazing BATter and I'm very gratefull for your compliment!

Muito obrigado for showing up on my thread! I really hope my BAT's can keep you entertained, thank you very much! 

 

 

Here's another preview, this time I decided to showcase some houses with the peculiar architecture from the rural areas from the Northeast of Brazil (the two houses on the left). I'm really trying to make,

this pack as diverse as possible by showcasing the various types of façades present in my home region. Those houses are based on houses mainly from Exu-Pe.

 

Thanks everyone for showing up on this thread and please return for more! 

[Huston 5,799]

You're doin' one heck of a job there By the looks of your previews, there's gonna be a huge diversity

[Bastet69008 1,102]

AA..WWW..EE..SS..OO...MM...EE

 

Wait?? Exu-Pernambuco? I know a guy from there!

 

 

[Toothless Stitch 2,901]

Overall looks lice but there's something about hte roof that bothers. The 3-D effect is not showing up as nice as it could do. Maybe you could decrease the saturation (in order to keep it from appearing to be a photorealistic plane) or you try to add some additional depths (I guess those are simple textures and no procedural maps, if so try to work on it a little bit is PS or GIMP or whatever). Keep it up

Thank you very much! I must admit that I plan on adding even more diversity to this pack, hehe. Don't forget to come back and see it for yourself 

 

 

AA..WWW..EE..SS..OO...MM...EE

 

Wait?? Exu-Pernambuco? I know a guy from there!

 

 

 

Oh yes, I think I know him as well, hahahahaha  . The next houses are also from the hometown of Luiz Gonzaga, plus a few from Campina Grande. Muito obrigado pelo elogio, amigo!

Yes, I agree with that the roofing is a little odd, but I still haven't managed to fix this. But I will still try other methods, thank you very much for the honest feedback 

 

Hellooooooo everyone! In this update I wish to inform you that I have a few more houses ready for the pack and that I will be travelling for the next few days, but as soon as I'm back, I will return to work.

Anyways, as I "parting gift" (is that right?), I wish to you some progress on my other project that I'm also developing for the Rio2016 project, hope you guys enjoy it.

 

 

It's the front façade of the Igreja Nossa Senhora da Penha de França, located in Rio de Janeiro

[tonyr 926]

OMG, that facade is looking delicious; The marble is amazing!

[Toothless Stitch 2,901]

Just realised how awful my grammar was within my last post xD D:

 

Are you brazilian actually?

[elavery 1,013]

Facade looks great! Feel free to show updates in the Rio 2016 thread also.

[JP Schriefer 5,591]

Wow, awesome start! Wonderful!
