I finally finished and just submitted pack, it will contain 33 models of variety fruits and vegetables made with full 3D photogrammetry in homemade studio.
Each model has 4k PBR Albedo and Normal maps, average 5k tris with LODs down to few hundred (extra round! super smooth! mega detailed! game optimized!)
It will be perfect to add some life to your kitchens, shops, garden, whatever comes to your mind.
All for, after rethinking everything, $25
And it’s fresh and healthy!
Yup, also 4k on lemon. Nah, performance is great, at least on my Core i7, GTX 970 and 16GB RAM, even when there’s over 2000 meshes on scene. I will prove it with video soon
I want to provide highest quality possible. You can always downscale textures (even in UE4 using LOD Bias in texture properties), but you can’t scale up.
What if someone would like to make cinematic where lemon is closely visible? Or arcade game where fruits are also very close? Or maybe character is small, like insect or toy?
Are you providing the LODs? otherwise is pointless. Also are you providing the same meshes with downscaled texture like 512 or 1024? . If not then it’s still going to consume time. We buy packets just to drag and drop. For the price, I would say go for 10 to 14.99 otherwise not many people would buy this pack.
PM send, but I’ll write it here in case someone wondered about the same.
Let me quote myself from first post:
“5k tris with LODs down to few hundred”
So yes, LODs are included and optimized, so up close you get nice, detailed models, and as you go away it’s getting more ‘blocky’ but it’s not visible from distance.
About the textures - no, I’m giving just 4k, because downscaling is quick and easy, you can do it even inside the engine in texture properties in literally 5 minutes or less. Adding ready drag’n’drop lowered texture models would make unnecessary bigger pack size.
I went down with the price, as I started working on it (link to thread also in first post) I planned it to be even double, and as you can see from the poll on that old thread, quite many people said that they will buy it, or they’ll think about it. Doing such assets is very time and money consuming, each fruit/vegetable was exisitng in real life before I scanned it and turned into game asset. You get each model for less than $1. If you compare it to similar offers at for example Unity AssetStore, my offer is much more realistic, and price isn’t very much higher in comparison. Also, from microeconomical point of view, it’s more worth to few people buy a bit expensive product, than many people with much lower cost.
//One more note about price - Someone can also say that my Aged Tools Pack on Marketplace is too expensive, but please notice the quality and compare price to similar offerings. If you’re doing commercial game, really, 25 or 30 dollars is nothing, you don’t pay me anymore after your game is released
