why would you do all these stuff ? isn't it waist of time ? if all active members on this page would team up together im sure you could do something big. 

I'm incredibly poor person who does these renders for free, because I enjoy doing it and seeing what other people think about it and the conversations.
Also I'm doing a big project, mostly by myself and I don't get paid and I don't mind it as I explained why.

Team up to do what exactly? We all do our own art, we have our own styles. At times I have collaborated with others, but it is hard to coordinate and just isn't as smooth or nice an experience. The whole process is an experience that we all enjoy most or every aspect of.

Photography is a waste of time. Why would someone put all that creative effort in to a picture that people are just gonna look at. I'm sure if every photographer in the world teamed up they could so something big.

team up to  do something maybe. there are companies being appreciative to their fan art teams. by something i mean it could be doing mods, doing new levels or even game design. especially that you have a team tag, they hear you well.

With your mindset @PersianTiger, someone else could say that people should stop wasting their time modelling and team up to do something "big".

Each one might think something else to fill in for the "big", like teaming up to do APB missions for example!

None of us have any experience with UE3. We are effectively useless as level designers. Most of us do not posses the skill sets for industry-level modeling. Most of us are not animators. There are a few individuals amongst us who do fill those criteria individually, but as a team we would not bring much to the table.

 

That being said, we already have done works for LO in the past:

You might have noticed there is a new forum background option under the APB theme. During the talks with LO on where the 3D community was going, they gave us the opportunity to do this! So here's the render Whiskey, Sameriah and I did! 😄 Needless to say we are honored to see our stuff in an official place...

Did a render for official APB Facebook banner. This was the most difficult render I have ever done and it took over a week to finish it.

Behind The Scenes

  Reveal hidden contents


Originally the render was close up and was very simple.

9e2c976ef7.jpg

I thought having a simple image was good for the banner but that wasn't the case. It wasn't flashy enough and felt too closed in. It also didn't have that much of a APB feel to it. The chaos and openness that APB provides. I knew I had to scrap it and so I tried playing around what can I do.

This was one of the idea.

After that disaster it was time to restart the whole project and first concept was this.

162724228a.jpg
I opened up the scene more and added some more chaos. This was also the time when I considered adding player characters until friend of mine told me that its better to stay with official characters. I wasn't really fan of it but I understood his reasoning and removed player characters.

I also picked night as I thought adding flashy lights would make the scene cooler. It didn't take long that flashy lights + chaos = complete cluster fork.

After that I spent good one day ripping/modeling the scene.

Added one more cop car to make the car chase scene more active.

You probably noticed that there are no characters in the scene. That's because I need to build and place objects before posing, because otherwise I need to repose characters constantly after every small tweaks like turning car a bit.

Day light is usually by default very boring so I went for sunset(everybody loves bit of orange/red colors)

I removed the exploding car as it was taking way too much attention. I also didn't like idea of people dying in promotional art stuff.

Motion blur was also added to the scene and that itself is pretty interesting because I had to animate everything that moves.

I could photoshop it but it would never be accurate.

After that it was nothing else excepting fighting Blender and tweaking small things here and there.

These are only a couple of very prominent examples. There have been several other instances of us making things officially. Next time do your research before trying to judge people for what they do or don't do, alright?

@PersianTiger

Project need Organitation.

Organitation need Gerarchy

Gerarchy need Subordination

Subordination need Leader.

Leader require Duty,KnowHow,Relation,Coordination skills.

 

Basically Is hard find some one with all these skills togheter.

And obvius also with a charismatic project manager the crew result in final job is not warranted.

 

Cause is hard manage creative people, and mostly they rarely find the need of cooperate.

 

TL:DR

Why i should begin to code something for this bunch of crazy wild horses ? 😛 git gud nubs !

On that end, would you mind throwing my character model in it?

Granted, I'm unsure how to obtain the models, but would gladly give it.

If no, its cool, but after the work you posted, I'll gladly send, or do whatever, to get my character model in some fancy editing. ^_^

The time you spent typing this down feels more of a waste to me than doing "all this stuff" 😄

Not sure what "it" is. Aside from that I'm currently going to be more busy with other projects.

BattleEye is blocking NinjaRipper once again, it's back to basic where we can only rip our characters only.

In case people forgot to the steps.
You need to rename APB_BE file in Binaries folder to something else.
Then you can start the game with NR and rip your character in character selection only.
I recommend getting Tobii's Empty Login Alternative for easier exporting files.

i really hope this is not a perminent thing, ive only just started getting into this. thankfully i did pick up an RTW disc from amazon but that's not going to help when i was planning to rip a few friends soon for a group render 😞

Gonna give try with animations too.

This is simply a concept, nothing is polished.


Will do more serious animations later with actual references by recording actors doing their moves, and with voice acting and all that good stuff.

0_open Binaries folder of APB

1_rename APB_EAC to HalloHereprogram

2_start NR (x86) with d3d9 wrapper (target=APBprogram) APB will start.

3_now you can ripp just in the login screen :3

4_wanna more? re-rename HalloHere to APB_EAC and double click! splashscreen with EAC appears. (DONT JOIN DISTRICT BEFORE click EAC)

You could just run ninja ripper without removing anything at all actually. Got Reshade to work with EAC still installed, it worked fine. since ninja ripper and Reshade are both injector programs, it would seem to have one or the other work as well.

Nvm. since the latest patch it has been blocked again l:1
