WIP: Ponda Baba [Archive]

Cool, I love Ponda Baba!

One thing though, Ponda Baba in the Ep. IV wears a long-sleeved jacket. I believe it was in the Star Wars Christmas Special that he wore a short-sleeved one.

It’s hard to tell in this picture, but you can see what I'm talking about if you look REAL close....

And for some non-movie pictures of Ponda Baba from Ep. IV....

I hope this helps.

Great job on that one looks just like im ;)

Padawan_7

11-20-2002, 03:39 PM

Looks much better! :D

Just a few more things....

1.) I think the jacket's sleeves could be longer.
2.) You might want to make him a belt with a belt buckle (like the figure).
3.) You could smooth out (modeling wise) the top of his feet.

Keep up the good work!

Cool, he's looking even better!

One thing though...from the new picture you posted, it appears as if his feet/boots still have a big seam or crease on the top portion of the feet that go up to the leg. So, you could try to further smooth those out or you could make new boots -- they might turn out nice. :)

And, oh yeah, I can't wait to see the more detailed face.
Keep us posted! :D

Ok... you have 2 choices as for what you can do with Mr. Baba's hands.

1. His actual hand: A big tenatacle tipped flipper thing with suction cups.

2. His chopped off ANH prop accident hand: Humanlike hand with claws and fur.

Which one you do is all up to you, but I recommend the flipper-tentacle hand, as that's what the Aqualish species actually has.

actually, there are sub-species. some have the flippers, other have 5 (or 3 in the case of prequel aqualish) fingered hands. both the essential guide and the ponda baba action figure have the latter (5 fingures).

I think you really should finish your snowtrooper model before working on this model, :) it would give you more time to work on this afterwards :D

Scouttrooper said to me that the Snowtrooper would be skinned and the Ponda Baba has 5 fingers ,.. :D

Are there sounds for it ??
:D

Hands and Boots :

hmm dunno if i change that,... i must know what other guys think of it :) it has now three fingers ,... i can still change it in a few secs. The boots are now different, it had shoes now it has real boots like the actionfigure.

Head :

It also have some hair on the lower of his head ,.. i dont know how to gonna make that ,.... maybe someone could bring a shader on it :) ,.....
Im still working on the eyes ,.. so it looks more "evil"",.. it also have more detail (not much),.. new pics soon ;)

Torso and Legs:

I have worked on the shoulders and the rest of the arm it looks better now. :) Some guy told that the color of the jacket is not right :confused: what color must it be ? darker/lighter ?
I need pics of his legs, I have the actionfigure of it its kinda dark braun.... i have done it like that, but i need to see the right color that they use in Episode IV.

Looking very good. If there were to be only two cantina aliens to be modeled, it would be Ponda and the Ithorian.

Looking foward to the release.

use the last mail with Pondababa.zip init, the first and second one had some old skin pics and the model had modelbugs in the head and jacket.

updated now: one arm was longer then the other one :)
and the head still had some modellingbugs,

By the way, which texture should i use for the boots?

12-31-2002, 10:09 AM

something with black :) doesnt matter ,.. use a standard Jk2 model one ,.. or make something by yourself

Psyk0Sith

01-03-2003, 08:38 AM

It's moving slowly...i got to hang out with good buddies of mine for these few past weeks so very little has been done.

I'm not the quickest "compiler" out there but i'll do my best.

Psyk0Sith

01-07-2003, 11:33 PM

Here's what i've done this weekend:

-Added sections to the knees
-Fixed a big hole in the hands
-Deleted unecessary faces for the torso (under the jacket)
-Mirrored the head/mouth for symetry
-Welded some vertices (open edges)
-Fixed some holes in the shoulders

Today
-Weighted/linked the whole thing together
-Sucessfully exported to .glm with error message...

What needs to be done:
-Caps/Re- Hierarchy
-Weight the fingers
-Reduce the number of polys on the head (that's the error message from carcass...)

I'll send the early beta to scout tommorow (it wont load in JK2 but it works fine in modview.)

More later...

Psyk0Sith

01-09-2003, 07:54 PM

:swear:

Alright now i'm pissed, everything should be ready to go in-game but the game itself, not carcass, is saying bones are missing or animation invalid or somthin like that.

Everything looks fine in modview, but i noticed the compiler reports only 30 bones present, wtf is that? my other models have at least 60 including facial anims.

Other models work fine in game...so i dunno what the hell is going on.

I usually fix what's wrong when i get error messages, but i get none this time. :mad:

Anyone can help?

Admiral_Ackbar8

01-13-2003, 08:58 PM

when i d/l a model it happened to me once
i dont know the answer

hope you fix it
really want to download

Psyk0Sith

01-14-2003, 01:26 AM

I fixed it, i had to re-do the weighting from scratch using another skeleton, it works in-game now.

I still have some problems that i didnt have before (mostly related to how the arms were attached to the chest)...this model is cursed!!!!! :eek: I hope another chest re-weight can fix that.

Scouttrooper

01-15-2003, 12:04 PM

Take it easy Psyko :) i hope you can fix that ! ,...

I think im going to make some more skins, like the ones that are on Episode 2 :)

Psyk0Sith

01-15-2003, 12:25 PM

Sorry for taking so long man, if only the first skeleton would have worked in-game, i think you'd be playing with him right now hehe.

im going to work on the sounds and the skins

I know something cools ,.. Could someone add the eye shader of Kit Fisto on Ponda Baba ? that would be awsome !

Scouttrooper

01-20-2003, 09:49 AM

well :(

maybe next pics are better :) ,...

PsykoSith can you make a little pocket on his torso please?
i dont know if it is still possible,... (sorry for all the messed up thingys :( )

Psyk0Sith

01-20-2003, 02:54 PM

I need a bit more info than a little pocket please...like where, how little or how big?, what does it look like?

That's still possible, i'll just create a separate mesh and weight it 100% to 1 bone. The uvmap of the pocket will be added on the current torso texture.

Scouttrooper

01-20-2003, 04:13 PM

you can see it on the right side of this pic :

http://www.starwars.jediknights.co.uk/Characters/Ponda_Baba.jpg

look at the right side of his Torso , it a very little flat pocket :

http://www.artoosnews.com/potf2pics/potf2ponda.jpg

I have skinned a belt,... maybe you can model that too
look at the second pic for the belt....

very much THNX !!!! :) ;)

Psyk0Sith

01-20-2003, 04:31 PM

I could do the pocket. I think we wont see much of it, most of the time the left arm covers that part. try to skin it and see how it looks, this will give you a good idea on how it'll be visible.

The belt is already there (the torso_hips surface) i could add a little "bump" on it so you can have that silver thingy?.

From a distance it wont get noticed much.

Just send me the new skins (for the belt), i'll also fix some uvw maps.

{BK}SupremePain

01-20-2003, 04:32 PM

that pocket dosent need to be modelled onto the model does it? you can just add it to the texture... thats much easier cuase like scout said, its very flat... hope you guys know what i mean;)

Scouttrooper

01-20-2003, 05:06 PM

yeah , you guys are right :)

it wassent my idea to model it,.. nevermind that :)

look at this pic:
http://scouttrooper1.tripod.com/photoalbum/shot1021.jpg

ill send you the skin over 9 hours ,.. im going to sleep first :)

Psyk0Sith

01-20-2003, 08:00 PM

K, i can wait :)

and hmm,.. if you have some time maybe you can edit the head a little,.. i mean above the eyes and the nose a little more to the front,..

I'll see what i can do.

this might be good for a taunt. http://wavcentral.com/movies/lost_world.html click on lwdino.mp3

this one sounds kinda trippy http://sounds.wavcentral.com/effects.htm click on 2757.mp3

Maybe in the end of this week i send you some samples.

01-23-2003, 09:51 AM

Hey all! I'm just gonna say one thing.
The pocket cant be skinned without an actuall model of it, cuz if u try, it will happen on both sides of the vest.
[Edit: And can u try to model the, ehm, things on his arms on the vest?]

Cheers!

Psyk0Sith

01-23-2003, 02:06 PM

The pocket cant be skinned without an actuall model of it, cuz if u try, it will happen on both sides of the vest.
Wolfey is right!

I can unwrap a small part for the left side of the vest so it can be painted only on that side and not both.

Im going to model the Senator version of the Aqualish specie too !!!!
Does that mean i'll have to weight another freak? that wasnt part of the deal! ;P

I plan on finishing Ponda today but i dunno how long it will take...

Scouttrooper

the binding ,.. its a lot of work ( i think ) i have tried it ,.. but when you bind something nothing happens ( i think )

That image is copyrighted to me and neomarz...you should have asked first...but it's no big deal, you can use it ;)

I'm not gonna model the ripples on the jacket, because first of all it's not my job, Scouttrooper asked me to weight the model...and that's what i'm doing!. As a bonus i fixed errors in the mesh and uvw mapping.

And i guess making those "lines" would require much more polys.

So for now i say: nope...

Scout: I've done a small tutorial on how to use the skin modifier...i will add more sections when i have time.

If you happen to read it, you could give me some feedback so i can know how helpful it is for "beginners".

That should have been done before weighting and segmentation (for export reasons i had to detach the face, too many verts) but i can make the head a bit rounder and fix the cheeks.

I've just sent the updated GLM to u Scout.

I didnt do much for the cheeks, i dont have any pics to see how smooth they need to be.

Can the beta testers check any problems with the caps?

What is the command to activate dismemberment?, it never works for me! unless i play on-line.

Scouttrooper

02-27-2003, 01:07 PM

Skin/mapping , releasing:

i realy need someone for it :( it looks not good , the head and jacket realy need some good skinning/skinmapping work ,.. please help me, so i can release this one and finish up the other ones

Ponda Baba Sounds:

I have record some sounds of Ponda Baba when he is in the cantina, when he graps lukes shoulder, he is talking a little weirdo stuff, and when he lost his hand he's screaming a little, think i can use it for the dead sound (not tested),

Ponda Baba Shaders:

It already has a glowy eye shader but if you look at his neck, you can see lotta hair on it, i realy like to know how i can add a hair shader on the pondababa model neck... someone must know it, its also used on the Wookie model. Can someone tell me how ?

Psyk0Sith

02-27-2003, 02:34 PM

Load up the wookie in modview that'll answer a lot of questions...you basically extrude faces and use TGA alpha channels to "remove" parts of the polygon that will not be seen...creating what appears to be strands of hair.

Scouttrooper

02-27-2003, 03:38 PM

so i cant add it ?

and ppl, I STILL NEED A SKINMAPPER for the jacket

:( please ?

ill donate the one 50 points ?oke :D ,... i realy need someone

Dark Reaper

hello everybody,
scouttrooper send me, I am supposed to say something but I don't have a clue what to say..... oh, I should just ramble something, ok that shouldn't be to hard..... well last I was at a party with my mandalorian armour on and... oh, it should be something about the skin or model ... ok.. hmm..

well okthe model looks really good, but the skin isn't really good, its too... wel there should be more ehm... you know... like... you should see some wrinkles in his *buttface*.. the jacket... its too... too..... pure... no jacket in the world could be so much orange, it could not stay that clean, especially on tatooine it would be more wheatered.

well I really think someone should help scout with it, otherwise scouttrooper shouldn't release it :P

Scouttrooper

03-07-2003, 03:36 PM

why does no one help me with this ? i cant skinmap things, and im sorry that i forgotted to say that it still must happen,.... this is one of my first models ever,... its only the jacket and head :(

Dark Reaper

03-08-2003, 09:06 AM

come on people..
hmm... ok, the guy/ girl who skinmap's this thing will... ehm...
be able to pick a prize :D

theze are 3 prizes the guy/girl/thing who does the skinmapping thing can chose between these 3 things

1. 50 points + those 50 points from scouttrooper makes 100 points !!!!

2. A brand new car !!!!! oh... wait we are out of cars... ok hehe :D ... how about a free chance to betatest Mandalorian Revenge.. (this could take a while though)

3. a Free bed and free food !!!

:D

remember you can chose only 1 of the 3

Scouttrooper

03-09-2003, 12:08 PM

i want a free bed and free food ,.... this thread SUX

no skinmapper ,no skin, no ponda baba,....
its not realy something that you guys matter ,.. Only those Plo Koon (released when Jedi Knight 5 is released) and Anakin Episode 2 (be a member on LF and wait for 1000 years)
that are realy good models :S
100000 members,... no one can help me ,.. .yeah sure,..

why dont you guys just say that this model sux ???????

:confused: :confused:

Dark Reaper

03-09-2003, 12:18 PM

I could do the skinmapping thing, but I think you should calm down abit... ok?

alright then just tell me what to do and send me those things

Psyk0Sith

03-09-2003, 01:54 PM

Did i miss something??? it doesnt sound like they are flaming each other...Dark told him to chill out that's all.

I've seen worse than that (if you call that a fight!)

Well anyway, hope Dark Reaper can help Scout with the model. Good luck :).

Scouttrooper, you could ask Marz if he would be willing to skin Ponda for you. He's almost done with his Zam Wessel.

ERM... That wasn't really funny you know... Ponda Baba is the person in ANH or A New Hope ... anyway in tatooine.. in the casino or bar.. Panda baba had his arm chopped off by obi wan lightsaber..... That panda baba.. not a guy with a vagina mouth..
