UT3 model Aion Female [WIP,Pics] [Beta2 +mutator]

**INVICTRA** · 01-03-2010, 08:45 PM

Name: Alice [Elyos Female]
Version: 12.1.2010 4.1.2010
Compatibility: 2.1
Description: I'm trying to convert some of the Aion characters for UT3. This version contains costume Textures and Meshes only.This character is only for testing and does in no way represent the final product. I am only a beginner at this stuff. The character has many bugs and when my skills get better I will try to release a nice clean Pack.

My story so far:
After some research I finally got my hands on the Aion character meshes. They where nice and all but I had no idea what to do with them. Later UDK was released and I thought how nice it would be to try it out. After reading much on forums I realized it would kill me before I could do anything useful. But I had to start somewhere and why not just create a costume character for UT3. I already did have some experience from UT2k4 [Link]

Anyway I felt confident until I hit Maya

...that was one tough Program. I swear it looked like Rocket science at that time. Slowly I began to understand how it worked and today I fell pretty comfortable with it. Now I had the knowledge to rig, skin and export the skeletalMesh into the Editor. The editor was my next goal. It did look much like the one from 2004 except that they changed some ... minor ...stuff. By the time my headache finally stopped I had a good understanding of the concept of materials and how they are made up. Now I had my character in game and I was happy

But the Character was to bright almost white. I almost tried to change the textures to fit better the game when I got the idea of letting the player chose the color of the skin, armor, hair, eyes... I modified the Base material for all characters and now I could do just that with the help of a color mask. Playing in the editor is one thing, but now I need to get it to work also in game with a mutator maybe. ...I am now reading tutorials on mutators and how they can change variables of a material.

I will continue my story with the next release.

Looks really cool =)
Some one can create Asmo char in hi level light armor types? Much more sexy looking

**Kelt'ar** · 01-04-2010, 05:42 AM

Woah! Nice char

**nightFlarer** · 01-04-2010, 05:56 AM

Looks like I'm not the only one porting rip models now

It's good to see, keep it up man.

**euchreplayer23** · 01-04-2010, 07:43 PM

Looks really good. Works perfect on my set up. What r u going to use a mutator for? UT3 needs more custom chars and this one is a keeper. Needs team colors though. Its very easy to do/add.

**Gussie[MK]** · 01-04-2010, 11:27 PM

Very Nice skin. I will be running this on our server when complete. TY

**INVICTRA** · 01-08-2010, 01:20 PM

euchreplayer23@ The mutator will allow the player to chose different colors for his character.

I don't have much experience with programing and at the beginning I didn't know where to start, but the thought of realizing my idea in UT3 was enough for me to move forward. For the last 5 days I was reading trough tutorials, UT3 script code and various forums. I think my head might explode now

But I did acquire enough information to make my 1st mutator. The mutator is far from what I plan it to be in the final release. But for now I have something to work with. Pictures below.

**Zerglings** · 01-08-2010, 07:00 PM

Nice work on character so far.

**NØØb_Zaibot** · 01-08-2010, 09:05 PM

too cool char

**Jade-Phoenix** · 01-09-2010, 06:29 PM

She puts Paris Hilton to shame!

Here it is! My second release and the mutator. Now that I think back, making the mutator was not that hard, but making the UI for the mutator is rly stupid. Sometimes it works and sometime it doesn't... it gets frustrating at times. Little by little I'm unlocking it's secrets. While I was doing the UI I also had some time to do the team colors. But I did not just go into Photoshop and paint them, no I had to do it my way

I made a Smart Material that decides to give u the Armor color depending on what team you are. Epics code does most of the work tho. It is not perfect but slowly I'm getting there. As always pictures below.

There are some bugs that are pretty obvious. I rigged the character to a male skeleton, why ? Because I don't have a female one. But I will try to get one. U might expect a macho Idle animation in the char. selection screen.

In the Mutator click Update to see your color changes.
Clicking Default might render the character as black. To correct it click Update after that.

Question: Does anybody know how to change the colors of the tabButtons and its text color? Anything I try it goes back to default.

This mutator looks very interesting!

Will it work with other characters or just your own?

**INVICTRA** · 01-11-2010, 07:42 PM

I might be able to Override the other characters default MICs. Then I could apply my material to them. I think it is posible.

**HideInLight** · 01-17-2010, 05:23 AM

This is pretty cool. A mutator like that would be truly awsome indeed.

**BullDozer** · 08-27-2010, 05:51 AM

! ! ! Excellent ! ! !

**[-FEARIV-]** · 03-07-2011, 03:57 AM

Really Nice Character!
It's still beta, the only thing that needs to be done is the line in the chin to the ears,
it's not completely connected so you can see through that line. (Picture #3)
If that's improved, I see no mistakes anymore!
Didn't test the colormod yet,
could that also work online or is it just for instant action?

**Unreal4Eva** · 03-24-2011, 03:36 PM

Will someone cook this for PS3?

**LegendXCarisso** · 03-10-2012, 08:50 AM

I know this doesn't make the best introductory post.... but I've noticed a lot of the download links for the UT3 stuff has gone down according to Gamefront: Including this one. I would truly appreciate if someone would re-upload this model. XD As for me? I'm just a guy who loves games. Especially this one. Hello Epic community. ^^ I Am Legend.

(The PC version? ^^)

**Zephyr** · 03-10-2012, 02:04 PM

Few models on my hdd but I found it and upload : Aion_Female_Beta2

**LegendXCarisso** · 03-10-2012, 07:19 PM

You're a godsend. XD Thank you soo much for this file. The main reason I loved this was due to the mutator included within the mod. Never had that function in UT2004, but UT3 was quite nice. Though... they lack voice packs like UT2K4 had. ^^;

**Carnatic** · 07-25-2012, 04:26 PM

Sorry to be a pain, but is anyone able to upload this model somewhere?

And I know this is my first post, actually I registered here for something completely different, a problem I was having but fixed it while waiting for moderators to approve me.
