I've been going through the returning Pokemon models in SwSh and comparing them to the ones from SuMo, and so far every model I've checked has (unsurprisingly) been 100% identical.
So after going through more models, I found that some Pokemon do have changes, though most are minor at best.
Most of the changes are like Arcanine's where a couple redundant verts were removed.
A few of the changes are like Machamp's where subdivision was applied to the mouth.
Noibat is so far the only Pokemon I've seen with a major edit, having its whole face remodeled.
It's nice to see that at least some models were edited, even if most are totally inconsequential.
I'll add more to this thread if I find any other Pokemon with major edits like this,
OH BUT THEY ARE DIFFERENT SKSKSK THERE IS A FOLD IN THE SuMo ONE IN THEIR THIGHS IN PROFILE VIEW SKSKSKSK seriously they just ported the models then WHAT is taking up the space to put ALL OF THEM IN
It's fine there will be a day 1 patch that'll make all models completely different you'll see, GF would never lie about having to make models from scratch.
No, there was an interview where the developers claimed they had to remake the models from scratch. People tried to use that as understandable reasons for the cut dex, but now there’s proof they lied. I was hoping things would chill before it’s release...smh
Bullshit lmao. I know the game's been leaked but they had made it clear these models are new and I find it difficult that you've managed to rip them this early. And even then, these models look way better than sun and moon varientes
Also note, this doesn't mean it was easy. A lot of balancing has to be done for these select Pokemon, not to mention the new shaders they used (or whatever makes them look so HD) and that the dex is bloated at this point. P.S. have you checked this for EVERY model?
I did not check Noibat. I only checked like 30 random Pokemon since it takes me about 10 minutes each Pokemon to dump the models from the games.
Do you have any other examples? I'll add them to the main thread.
Is there a full clip? Still skeptical about it (how do I know that those aren't the same models?) But I don't think you'd lie about something this big. I'd just like to know if there is a full clip.
Game Freak sees the new games only as a vehicle to drive the sales of their real business, merchandise. The games are only there to introduce new Pokémon for people to buy stuffed animals of.
They're using the same model? Man that ruins the whole game for me, I can't believe they're using the same models. Nah but it all seriousness, the dex cut isn't as bad, and this is just nitpicky as hell?? Can't wait for the games to come out tomorrow
Not the point, they claimed the Dex was cut *because* they were making new models, even though all the footage we had at the time said otherwise, and so does the datamining. The old models are fine, the lie isn’t
