Stingray and Manta Ray Pack - UE4 Low-poly 3D model

cgtrader

The Ocean Stingray Pack is a comprehensive package that includes two advanced models: the Stingray and the Manta Ray. Both of these marine animals are equipped with sophisticated procedural spline animation systems, which allow them to swim and glide naturally along any chosen path. This remarkable technology ensures seamless movement, accurately mimicking the behavior of real ocean stingrays and manta rays. To provide flexibility for editing in various external applications, both the Stingray and Manta Ray models come with their respective maximum, 3D Studio Max (Max), 3ds Max (FBX), and OBJ files, along with their texture files. Users can easily access these resources to make adjustments or customizations as needed. To get a first-hand experience of the Ocean Stingray Pack's capabilities, users can download a complimentary demonstration package from http://bit.ly/oceanstingraypackdemo. This interactive demo offers an engaging and in-depth look at what the UE4 animation system has to offer. With UE4, users have unparalleled control over numerous settings, such as: - Movement speeds for slow and fast modes - Animation play rates for slow and fast - Timing controls that dictate how long the animal swims slowly and quickly - Randomness multipliers of timing to introduce variety in their movements - Acceleration speed, which determines how swiftly the animals pick up pace - Deceleration speed, which dictates how gradually they come to a halt - Roll speed, controlling how fast the tail flails back and forth - Roll intensity, affecting the extent to which the stingray or manta ray turns while in motion - Mesh scale, determining the size of the model as it moves along its path - Starting distance, allowing users to set the point at which the animation begins - The option to toggle between dynamic speed and constant speed modes Additionally, a carefully crafted library of physics assets has been included for creating realistic ragdoll effects when objects are subjected to sudden impacts. For users interested in further exploring the animation capabilities, an accompanying demo scene has been prepared. This comprehensive package includes settings for underwater post-processing, such as caustic lighting, fog, and depth of field. It also showcases a variety of stingrays and manta rays in action, demonstrating how the UE4 animation system can bring these ocean creatures to life. --- STINGRAY --- This remarkable Stingray model comes pre-rigged with advanced animations – including one stunning swimming animation. The user has the flexibility to easily adjust the tail bones to turn left or right at will. As it stands perfectly suited for game engines, this Stingray is utilized extensively within the Ocean Stingray Pack using Unreal Engine. Its versatility is evident in its impressive feature set: - Two separate diffuse textures with high resolutions: 4096x2048 pixels each - A tilable normal map that enhances surface details - Comprehensive lightmapping capabilities This detailed texture setup makes it perfect for immersive game environments and interactive scenes. --- MANTA RAY --- In striking contrast to the Stingray, the majestic Manta Ray model comes complete with not one but two sophisticated diffuse textures. Alongside these impressive visual elements is a high-resolution normal map that adds a layer of authenticity to its surface. Completing this package is a discerning specular mask – meticulously designed to replicate the nuances found on real-world manta rays. To achieve even greater realism, this remarkable model includes three different levels of detail, which work together seamlessly to reduce load times and enhance gameplay. The 3D model is suitable for both the world of videogames and filmmaking alike due to its exceptional performance capabilities. Each component within the animation system, from the initial idle pose to the thrilling swimming sequences, is meticulously designed and integrated for a fully immersive experience. To demonstrate these animations further, you can view them in action on Marmoset's official examples page. There, you will witness firsthand the mesmerizing way this marine animal glides effortlessly through its environment. Technical details surrounding the model are provided below: Triangle count of each LOD (Level of Detail) level: - Level 0: 5388 - Level 1: 2960 - Level 2: 926 Texturing information: - MantaRay_Dif.jpg, with a resolution of 2048x2048 pixels - MantaRay_Dif_B.jpg, another variant with the same high-resolution texture setup at 2048x2048 pixels - MantaRay_Norm.jpg provides fine-grained surface details through its high-resolution normal map design - Lastly, the specular mask offers precision lighting control, detailed to a resolution of 1024x1024 pixels.
