Resident Evil: Behind the Mask [+Hazardous Battle]

I'd prefer the right ones as well.

Oh and I'll start working on John Mayor again once I finish something else I'm doing that is priority at the moment.

These are the same models with hard normals on the left and phong-tagged on the right:

The ones on the right look a million times better than the ones on the left.

Not trying to nitpick or anything, but is that facial hair on the police jill

Maybe keep the hard normals for the face and use phong-tagged for the rest, it make the cheekbones and eye sockets more detailed and defined on Chris at least, the low res face texture looks worse smoothened on the phong-tagged version losing it's 3d effect imo.
It's the cuboid arms that stick out the most, if you could round off the sides and elbow joint they'd look miles better, it's less of an issue with the legs.

Jill's S.T.A.R.S. costume looks very blocky in those pictures.

That's what hard normals look like on the original model. RE6 applies a similar effect on EX outfits, which I tried to reproduce without the heavy specular. I'm still evaluating whichever works better in the end. These are the same models with hard normals on the left and phong-tagged on the right:


Classic Jill is kinda hard to tell apart from her DS counterpart.

Also, any chance of seeing her RE3 costume, or maybe even her BSAA costume?

I doubt. She and Chris already got enough outfits.

[RetroRain]

I actually missed that in his post? *facepalm*

I don't usually do that. Anyway, yeah, the model would be better if you could fix it.

Jill's S.T.A.R.S. costume looks very blocky in those pictures. Is that how she actually looks in-game?

She didn't look that bad when this picture was posted:

Answer:

Jill's classic outfit uses flat normals to differentiate her more with her DS STARS counterpart.

...though, I agree - it doesn't look very appealing

Moar outfits implemented for Chris and Jill:

Jill's classic outfit uses flat normals to differentiate her more with her DS STARS counterpart. Still haven't finished with Chris' classic outfit, it needs mesh untriangulation and better material placement.

And here goes a better model overview with proper rendering:

I actually replayed Overblood a couple of months ago. Finally beat it this time. The zombies in that game look like a rip-off of the first zombie in RE1, while the female protag is a straight up copy of Annette.

I'd imagine if you ever got around to doing a HB File 2, the outfits of the cast of T.R.A.G./Hard Edge would make for some very good alternate costumes for the RE2 characters.

It has a sequel, I never made past the train station though, it has an easter egg of a Raz owned building irc.

Oh man, that's actually selling it to me. I need a weekend of OB and DF, fueled by booze and junk food.

Overblood is best forgotten, I tried going back to it a year or so ago and it was just awful. Nostalgic but awful. First time I played it back in the 90s I completed it in like 3 or 4 hours or so and never touched it again.

Oh wow I remember Overblood but it's been a loooooooooong time.

Barry Burton convention 96' winner

I think we have an extra outfit for Barry, given the huge similarities. At least I can avoid the rainbow flag outfit or Barry cosplaying as Haggar, tho the latter wasn't too bad.

Glad to hear Rusty is working on the project, he's one talented guy, he sure has blossomed over the years.
