If you guys ever had free time, do you think you could do a tutorial? Not just a walkthrough, but a tutorial.
I know it would be hard since you guys have a lot to work on, but I'd love to see just HOW you like...render things and have them match up in the video. I can't seem to understand, but I'd love to learn.
Can I ask something? How did you make that invisible effect more realistic? When I use only Displacement Map It's not like this. I know you guys used more effect for this but what is it?
I wouldn't be surprised if the sentry is entirely from scratch. The ingame model probably wouldn't be nearly detailed enough for usage in a video, as it's intended from the ground-up to be a game asset. (If you look at it, you can notice plenty of detail that isn't on the original sentry) Plus, their sentry is much more realistic in style, where the ingame one is a lot more stylized to fit the theme of the game.
@NSanityBringer I wouldn't say it would surprise me if CorridorDigital made it from scratch given their skill at 3D; however, I would say its unlikely that they were able to create such an accurate 3D representation of Valve's sentry gun due to the fact that the in-game model is in fact a Valve-created model... and to accurately recreate something so complex down to each detail would be veryy impressive. But, I do agree that the lighting is much more realistic than it would be in the game.
Hey Corridordigital,, did you create the sentry completely in 3ds max? It seems hard to believe that you could replicate the entire sentry by yourselves (even though you are of course amazing VFX peoples :P). Or did you perhaps have a video of a team fortress 2 sentry positioned against a colored wall that you keyed out? if thats how you did it, how did you apply the reflection maps to the parts of the sentry to match the scene?
basically, by what means did you guys render the sentry gun
Wow, so cool, YOU ARE AWESOME!! ADD ME AND MY FRIEND ON STEAM SpyroManiac and my friend blazing_hawk, add blazing_hawk first and look at his friends and find the one that is SpyroManiac and add him :)

Man, this is the kind of stuff I'd like to do! But it sucks I can't get any 3D animation programs for myself... They cost like 3000 dollars O_O I don't have that kinda money. Good thing my school got it though heheh :3
@Mangaman1100 But 3ds MAX is a professional and advanced program, you won't get anything out of it if you have little to no experience, you need to start low, bender is a great program to start with, it's not as advanced and the results aren't the same as 3ds MAX, but it's easier to use and free.
@Fosax I see, yea your right. I've been working with 3ds a bit, but as you said unless I get losa practice and lessons in I won't get squat out of it.
And did you mean Blender? And if so where can I download it from? I'd really like to use it :D

@MythOfEchelon Well he says like 3 times over that "It's a blue-screen, I know". So it upsets me that your comment got so many thumbs as it did. Also, on annotations, while they can be annoying, most of them aren't. Annotations were a convenient way of getting me here! Could you imagine how much MGM would suck if there were no annotations for him to play around with? As Martha Stewart would say: "It's a good thing" :)
@CloaksCosplays well before they used greenscreen it was blue. so it was originally called a blue screen. but then they realized that green had a higher contrast to the costumes that most movies had. so technically it actually relies on what color it is but green screen is not an over all term
@kanmashma The last time I checked, It used to be Greenscreen, then more and more people started using Bluescreen, because all the recent Behind the Scenes recently have been bluescreened, People just keep saying greenscreen. Am I wrong? If I am, please link me something that says it isn't, I want to know the truth. (Preferably several somethings that are reliable sources.)
@uGuardian4 when the film technic of chroma keying was first invented, blue was the original color. they changed it to green because it had a higher contrast to what was on set usually. it all depends on what the actor is wearing and what props they are using. if they are wearing blue, they use green. if they are wearing green, they use blue.
@kanmashma Ok, nice to know, It's just I'm seeing more and more bluescreen these days, It seems that when using clothes that are compatible with both, people are starting to revert back to Bluescreen as a default now.
@MythOfEchelon It's just a film editing term. Greenscreens are generally green, hence the name "Greenscreen" but it does not matter the color of the screen as long as it's easy to remove when editing.
