Artic version update

Looks fantastic!!!

Looks you're designer, not modeler
Amazing!

Looks mazing keep on working!

I love the Scania OMNICITY, that's why my nickname is...

Amazing work, I love it. Keep goin'!

Very good. May I suggest National Express livery, when released? If we are allowed to edit your work?

Very nice work all the same.

National Xpress livery already halfway done overal 75% done just have to finish up a few things, Also released i should not have put the 3rd door on the end so il be fixing that soon since i dont think it would work in Omsi also debating for and artic version ( like the 67 route )

WOW!! Looking Good! +1 for a National Express livery.

Woot!!! Brummies are deffinately leading the way here!!

Couldn't it be possible to leave out the middle doors aswell? I think it would be better with them getting off and on from one entrance/exit.

And, if OMSI can support it, then yes, go for the artic, just finish the OmniCity first.

Excellent work, and may I suggest branding for the Express services, X62/X64?

Very nice never the less

How many polies is that?! And any chance of a wireframe shot?

Pls show wireframe shots from your model.

154,689 down from 160,120

Right managed to get it down to around 90,00 without effecting the model itself to much, so i think it wont have no problems with Omsi

Holy crap, that's a hell of a lot of polies!
In my oppinion, a model for game use or any sort of other real-time rendering system should never stray over 90.000 polies. Anything past that will put quite some strain on your system, and knowing how much OMSI likes to kill FPS as it is, one can only imagine how your finished Omnicity model will handle.

Also, that seems like way too many polies for the ammount of detail you have. Some of the lines around the front and rear of the bus look extremely edgy, and the part where the rear lights/bumper meet the side of the bus just looks messy. Also, it seems like you're wasting a hell of a lot of polies in the small details like the panel locks (the round things in the middle of every opening panel) and, if I'm not mistaken, you seem to have modelled the LED casings in the rear lights. The locks could be done with simple 6-sided cylinders and look just as good, and the LED casings could be left out from the mesh completely and added later using textures.
If I were you, I'd spend some time fixing the general shape of the bus, and then focus on all the details. Not that your bus needs a lot of fixing, in fact I think the overall shape is quite accurate, but some "cleaning up" is something it defenentley needs.

Don't take this as an offensive post, all I'm trying to do is offer some constructive critissism. If you need any help, feel free to ask.

--By the way, have you got some shots of the bus with a texture on? Doesn't have to be a render, just a quick screen grab.

The reason why it was alot of pollies was because most of the panels wasnt attach so simply attach the forn the back and the side and it shot down to 90,00 so im putting it on a diet lol im just going over the model fixing little error like you said but please bare in mind its only 2months of work and to get perfection it take a hell of alot longer id b sure to hit you up with the 3dsmax file for checking after i fix these lil errors, so you can see anything that i have missed out

xD I know that only too well. I spend 6/8 months of modelling per bus, and my models aren't near any sort of perfection.
But yeah, if you need anything, just hit me up. I'm not master modeller myself, but I know a thing or two.

poly count down 2 60,00 i realised the wheels where very very high polly

Imported in blender everything is fine, working on the config now, Next update you shall see it in OMSI

"see it in OMSI"

You have done the Interior? Unfortunately, you have not answered up to now this question. Can you show us a shot from the wireframe in Blender? This should be no problem.

didnt you get the

Zitat :

NO i have not finished the interior yet all i said was next update you shall see it in OMSI Pedro is going to see my 3dsmax file so there really is no need 2 post a wireframe shot when i could post a proper screen once ino it import ok to omsi


Also as u may of saw from other post the poly count was very higher just over 160,000 so i had to Rework it to make it more suitable for Omsi as 160,00 suitable for Rendering, and what i have it round to now is the 74s level, ( but ino i can get it down to 55 lowest)

I ask myself where the problem is to be shown a Render or wireframe of the Model. I will further observe it.
