*in an epic voice*
They're FINALLY here!
I have finally found a way to make 3d models from Spiral Knights. and I am now making all the items, like guns, swords, bombs, shields, helmets, armor, and Items. I will also be remaking the whole entire bazaar in haven along with the guild hall, hall of hero's, lab, training center, the "main place", and the arcade! basically everything connected to "Haven" will be modeled, INCLUDING THE SHOP PEOPLE (and those bird things) and the NPC'S.

I am making all of these models for a new animated series called (I accually have no idea what I'm going to call it. I'll figure it out later.)

Wait, you mean like legit 3D models? Not polygonal-esque shapes and fake spherical objects? That's awesome!

But what Are you gonna call it...?

I actually just came up with this idea today and I am still thinking about the storyline.
and yes they are legit 3d models not whatever your thinking of (I am not that kind of animator I like to go into full detail (if I can)).
I will try to put a link for a picture somewhere I don't have a deviant art account or anything so ill probably just put the picture on my mediafire account where you can download the pic there!

here is za' link:

The kind that I'm thinking of are legit 3D models. I meant they weren't polygon shapes like the models are in-game.

Gamma-Zero

???????

I don't understand so (I guess for your standards) are my models "Legit

In game yes the weapons are just polygons with textures on them so, like the screw holes and lights would be in the TEXTURE not from a separate object!
with these I am putting in full detail making the screw holes, lights, hilts, basically the whole enchilada! now I don't know if that is "Legit" for you but "hey I'm not you"

Feline-Grenadier

Um...

When he meant by legit models, he meant by the ones ripped straight from the SK files. If you're simply recreating them in another program, that's not Sonosuke's "legit".

Really, it just means you're recreating models in another program. I think being concise helps... ^-^'

Is there any way to transfer these to Unity or some other graphics engine?

Sonosuke

(~O ,O)~ #Sonosuks

No, by my "legit", I meant fully rendered in 3D, rather than a polygon mesh like the in-game files.
There's really only so much you can do using Java.

Gamma-Zero

NOPE SORRY

From my knowledge of animation and game creation I know that there is no way possible to the common animator/creator to accually rip it out of the actual game itself the only thing that comes close to making this possible is "Spiral Spy" which can import models in a XML format now some people will automaticly assume that they can open these files up with 3ds max. Well that's where it gets tricky I analyzed the java coding for the game and found that they had a certain plugin for 3ds max that made it virtually impossible because as soon as they clicked the button they encoded the .XML and made it into a .dat file so unless you know how to back up what they did there is no way to do it

oh and yes these models are NOT like they are in game

and I just finished the calibur sword class, line thingy (you know what im saying)

Liminori

UHHHHHHHHHH

By your logic, Sono, It is legit.
2D: Square
3D: Cube (Just a bunch of squares)
SO AT LEAST DESCRIBE YOUR REASONING BETTER
also, I'd rather not... download that file.
(Fully rendered 3d = Polygons made of polygons made of polygons made of polygons. IT'S ALL THE QUACKING SAME)

Tue, 08/05/2014 - 22:23

Gamma-Zero

Its ok

Yes I am sorry about that the file is just a .JPG or what other people call it a picture. I don't know how to post a pic on the actual body of the paragraph so if you don't want to download it its ok I will try to get a deviant art account and just put it there.

New Deviant art Link for the "Legit" test

I have just created a account for deviant art so now you wont have to download the pic to see it!

Dream come true...? :O

Though my dream shattered already when I tried to do this but,thanks to you,I may try to do this again.So I guess I am not the first one to plan for 3D Models for this.Sadly...The only problem which these models from "Spiral Spy" can't be import to 3D Max due to Java stuffs...

I'm still trying to get from a Knight to 3D Max! >:c

How did you go about making them?

Arkate

How he made them.

It's no worry if you don't know how he did it.

- Screenshot weapon
- Start 3D modeling program of choice
- Create plane
- Give plane screenshot as texture
- Create cube, cut it in half
- Model 1/2 cube into 1/2 of the weapon
- Mirror geometry

IIIIIIIIMMMMMMM BAAAAAAAACK!

HEY GUYS I'M BACK and with some awesome news!!!! I have just made the spiral knights avatar! though it did take me about a week to do this and it is still in the beginning stages!... I HAVE DONE IT!!!!!!

here is a link to the picture of the avatar!!!!
http://xero6251.deviantart.com/art/Bodypic-474761044?ga_submit_new=10%25...

aaaaand no arkate that is not how I make my 3D models! I use a "very special" technique to model my models and it definitely does not involve squares and planes!! although that might be a good way to do it! that is not how I do it....

I will soon make a tutorial on how "I" make my models! then you can go off and make your own!
sooooo keep your eyes peeled on this forum and you'll know how to make them!

also I will sell my "awesome" creations IN GAME! NO REAL MONEY!!!
the prices are!!!
(DRUMROLL tatatattatatatatattatatatatattatatat BAAAAAAA!)
for a sword ( in general) 3,500 crowns
for a gun (in general) 3,000 crowns
for a bomb (of course in general) 3,000 crowns!
FOR A FULL ARMOR SET! ( sorry but these are hard to make!) a WHOPING 5,500 crowns!
and just to throw out a bonus! first 3 customers will get the first version of my empty avatar!!!! FULLY RIGED AND EVERYTHING!!!!

just send me a mail in-game with the appropriate amount of money and I will email you a link to the avatar ( if you are the one of the first 3) and the goodies that you ordered!!!

thank you for all of your support!!!!
see you guys soon
Gama-zero!!!!

also if I don't answer within the next day or two its probably 'cause I'm making something really hard like armor or Special effects! ( I am very handy with all sorts of Special effects and 3d software ... so I COULD make a series if I wanted to!) so If I don't answer within the next day its ok ill be back on sometime later!

Gamma-Zero

oh and also!!!

I need a list of all in game items (including vitapods and NPC'S and stuff!)
as of right now I am just making them randomly so it would be nice to have a checklist!
whoever makes it will get a 3D BUNDEL PACK!!!
of one category of weapons (swords,bombs,guns!)

now on to the details!
1. I would like it to be in sections like (guns, swords, bombs,)
2. make an armor section!
3. List all the names of the NPC's
4. also make a list of all the enemy's and bosses (like the warden and jelly queen)
5. PLEASE POST IT ON THIS PAGE IT WILL HELP A BUCH WITH IT (or you could make a empty document and just make the list there and send me a download link to the .doc!

THATS IT!!!!!

Move over, there's bubble-wrap to be popped!

These are awfully cheap, 5500 for a full armor set?

I'll take 50 (joke)

Mon, 08/11/2014 - 10:50

#17

Gamma-Zero

do you WANT them higher?

The reason I posted them at such a low price is because I do not intend to rob people!
I just want to get enough money to keep my guild hall in shape!
but you are right I should bump the price on the armor set...

the new price is (atattatatatatattatatattata)
15,000 crowns!!!!

there you go a worthy price for the hours of work on a armor set!

there you go "bill gates"

Request model

I've been DYING for a gremlin model (in fact, I stayed up all night trying to make my own in blender, which didn't work. I can't model very well....) and would /greatly/ appreciate it if you would make that for me. I'd love it if it were in the .obj format. Also, how much would it cost, and would you accept energy? Please tell me the amount in crowns or energy that I can pay for that.

Liminori

Gremlin model you say...?

There's a file in the game for a gremlin face.
You can find it in spiralspy.

Hexlash

Love the work.

Couldn't you just go down the lists available on the wiki?

There's your armour.
And there's your bombs.
Helmets.
Swords.
Dem Guns.
Shields.
Costumes too, if you're inclined.
Of course actual furniture.
Strangers; top shots only, I'm afraid.
Every monster page linked here.

You can go down this list, or reorganize them by difficulty, or whatever. :)

Mrgrey

It's funny

I'm an animtor (in school) and know how to model enough to that I could easily model these things, they're not difficult. I was just curious how it was done in this case. Best way would be to do what was mentioned before, rigging it is what would be a pain.

XML

Using something that decodes the binary .dat files into .xml files, I have designed a code in ROBLOX that maps the vertecies (triangles are a bit .. screwed up) and allows me to manually place triangles for the mesh. It's a pain, but as of this post it's all I can do. I am satisfied now. Hah.

Intresting

So Gamma, you are able to turn the .dat file from game recources into .mxl file editable for 3D graphic programs ?

PS: sdose it have anything in common with changing car models in GTA San Andreas, just asking becouse one of my friends told me that in this game models of cars were also saved in .dat files and there were programs decoding them into something usefull for 3DS Max
