Blood Voxel Pack

User is offline   fgsfds

I'm continuing to voxelize Blood's sprites. There should already be enough to make a full-fledged pack, but there is still much more to do.
What's been done so far:

I was thinking of splitting your Blood voxels off from the main thread into a separate thread but I thought there wouldn't be a need for that since they would able to be used in regular Blood too rather than just BloodGDX.

BloodGDX is not an EDuke32 Team project.

Let it stay here so I can post my stuff without clogging up the main thread. Once (if) I make a pack for the original game, I'll just post it there.

This looks amazing! BloodGDX can't load it as addon can it, so you need to replace the actual files?

Not yet, but custom voxels support will be added later to GDX. After that I'll either make a voxel pack or they will already be included in the port.

fgsfds already expressed his opinion about this pack, and it wasn't positive: https://forums.duke4...post__p__280344

Probably it's planning to do a total remake, we gonna use that pack just for the missing/not Monolith custom level voxels I think.

I have a question. Will these voxels be released as a voxel pack which will be compatible with Dosbox version of Blood?

Probably, but I'll have to find a convenient way to distribute it. Currently, you have to download 20 mbs of modified .art files and Dosbox to add these voxels to the game.

Haven't done much since the last update. Custom voxels suport should be added in the upcoming 0.770.

That is simply awsome!
Is it hard/time consuming making voxels?

Time consuming but mostly not too hard with the right tools.Though, there are some more complex sprites, like knight's armor, that I'm afraid to even start making.

intresting stuff.

Always was fashinated by voxels back when i first saw them in shadow warrior.

I still think they are so cool and look stunning in blood.

How about location placements?
I mean some sprites werent suposed to be voxels in the first place so maybe they will face in the wrong direction/angle?

Echoing the sentiment, Great work!

You mentioned it does not take long with the right tools.
Could you mention briefly what are the tools you use?
I have little artistic skill, but voxels are always something I wanted to muck around with when I had the time.

M210 will need to add maphacks support, same as eduke32's.

Magicavoxel is enough for almost every model. It would've been perfect if it wasn't for it's stupid 126 dimension limitation.
Strip2vox and vox2png help a lot.
Slab6 to convert resulting vox file to kvx.

New voxels in game are looking fucking-tastic! For a second I forgot there are new voxels. Question: are you going to voxelize even Life Essence?

Probably, but voxels don't support partial transparency, and life essence has transparent aura. Currently not sure what to do about it.

Patches could cut down on the file size. This program works well if I remember correctly.

I saw a video with gameplay of a unreleased unofficial blood 3 fan made demo concept thingy...it had what looked like fully animated voxel zombies.. anyway it was amazing.


Duke and shadow warrior kinda loose their original charm with these high res packs. Dont get me wrong here, i do apreciate them.. and alot of good work is put into these projects.


Got me thinking when i saw the new voxels here. they look almost identical to the original sprites. just think how cool it could be with voxel monsters?

im not 100% certain but i think the person responsble for the zombie voxel just converted the sprite in some way? no idea though i got no experience in making voxels.


Oh and btw why do the new voxels add so much slowdown when the old ones work just fine?

I'm sure it was a real 3d model. It's a completely different thing.

Basically, they are the original sprites, just extended to the 3rd dimension.

Honestly, I don't think it'll work too well for the enemies. Not only it will be incredibly difficult, but also original sprites are very detailed and when voxelized, they will lose a lot of these details because of how the voxels work.
But I may be wrong. This Pig Cop looks pretty cool.

Firstly, because some of the new models have bigger voxel count than the original ones (because the initial sprites are bigger and more complicated). Secondly, there may be a lot of them in the same place, which was never the case with the original ones. And most importantly, BGDX handles a lot of polygons like shit. It will be fixed soon I hope.
