2001 - 2008 RM 250 (WIP)

Well, guess it's about time I entered the world of high poly. Boy this is gonna take some time 

Very nice. What's a good polycount? I keep doing the kx500 and in some parts I think it is very high poly. I know there is not a limit...but my graphic card hasn't got the same opinion.

I was sat at about 14000 tri's before I started the high poly version.. Not sure what a good limit is but I know some GP bikes models are 50 - 60k. Geo is attempting to find out but would be interested to know, Damien what's the RMZ up to?

the high poly version is made for bakes.. you will not see any of that in game.. it is for your normal map baking. as far as the in game model my rmz was 56k but i could have easily made the count less it if i wanted too. 14000 offers alot of room for detail that you would not normally put in the low poly but if you can do it all on your high poly things should look pretty good

Could retopo the model but that will take more time
I like to start with the Low poly then work on the high poly using the low poly as a base

This ^

Also don't forget to make lods if your model is very high poly.

Thanks for the tips all.. Although I'm now going to have to make a low poly version of my high poly due to having to change some geometry to get high poly to work better. It's all a learning curve I guess!

Damn rear end took a while..

Just engine left to high poly!

[𝖙𝖋𝖈]

Hows the front end looking? 

[GDUBMX]

Wow man, really come on loads eh! Can't wait to try this in game.  Nice work mate

[𝖙𝖋𝖈]

Getting closer!

[PizzaChet]

Damn nice! Really coming along Fats. Is it just me, or are the shock shaft and spring coil too small in diameter? Looks a little wimpy.

[𝖙𝖋𝖈]

Thanks.. Well it is stock, I worked the diameters as best I could by lining it up with the picture and using reference pics but maybe I'll give it some more protein

[𝖙𝖋𝖈]

Better?

Cables 

[pacopastor34]

Did you cut the cable in two pieces? In the middle of the lower and upper forks?

Very nice! Can't wait to skin it and race!

Again, who is ready to help me to do a new 250 sounds?  I think the default sound sounds like a 50cc...
