Unreal Engine Batman Arkham #24: Burton Updates, Faces Galore and Owlman

Gotta say, that 2022 skin looks extra crispy with the Pattinson likeness

[@iancody3215]

Me too, although the hair could use bit of tweaking

[@SupaCD]

Combat looks so well paced. He doesnt move so fast its jarring and not too slow to where they would be able to get a hit in. All the suits are great looking. amazing work.

[@sheeeeesh3628]

This is more hype than a lot of the trailers from Gamescon.

You’re actually one of the Goated members of the Arkham Community, along with RRe36 of course

[@MBGamesHD]

The Keaton theme fits the Arkham universe very well for some reason

[@Themaniman]

Oh this looks sooo good. The Skins are so crisp, i like the unmasked skins, the face models are really fantastic, the maps looks super cool. And i love so much how this bit slower and heavier the combat feels here. It is not as fast as Arkham Knight, which i love because Arkham Knights combat is just too fast for my eyes. Here in the fights, i could follow the movement so much better. Incredible work.

[@CommieApe]

Owlman is so frickin cool. Wasnt sure if you were gonna do the round owlish eyes or a slicker version. Like how it turned out!

[@RRe36]

Well, JoeMama made it, not me, check the video description since its available as a Mod for Knight as well.

[@josephacker9182]

@@RRe36 can you make the battinson suit a mod for knight PLEASE it looks so good!

[@itriedtochangemynamebutitd5019]

I think a cool milestone you could do with this project is recreate the Arkham Asylum demo. Aside from possible exceptions I think it would be achievable and you will be able to see what the project would look like as a actual story mode. Obviously that is a imense amount of work though and I'm not saying it's easy, but it would be a cool idea.

[@tjakk14ero]

He Alr is im sure

[@ganggarr]

That Owlman suit is fucking sick !! Good work, my man.

[@genericsidecharacter8915]

These look amazing. I do think the Asylum and City suits had a much lighter, almost metallic gray, rather than that dark gray. And the cowl and gauntlets were a very dark blue in the Asylum suit. Also, the rivet-like details are an iconic part of the suits

[@ericchung3177]

This looks fantastic, I wish stuff like this could end up as fully fleshed out games. Like imagine a remake of Asylum like this.

[@pooshankapuganty4591]

As a batman arkham knight fan, i absolutely love what you are doing mate! When this project is finished i hope you get a lot more recognition for what you have done

[@jalobsterman6475]

Damn I’m late on this but I love seeing updates on your project

[@NumbSkull2602]

17:05 to think, this is what Arkham Asylum might look like if it was made today (This is amazing btw, love the Batman Returns stage, all of the skins and just the sheer amount of effort put into this)

[@trevorclaus726]

I have to say, every update you make just gets better and better! Especially the faces! I can see Keaton's, Kilmer's, Bale's, and Pattinson's faces in the models, along with Owlman's face being a much better version of SSKTJL face! The Arkham Asylum and City skins definitely look a lot more than the Return to Arkham series, A LOT more better.

[@Iamtheleagueofshadows]

Dude. I have to be honest, those ragdoll physics are top notch. It's like the bodies actually have weight to them instead of them being so bouncy like they were in Arkham Knight. (Don't get me wrong though, I love all of the Arkham games...minus Suicide Squad.).

[@gipsypavenger1464]

You have come a long way, well done.

[@Jan_Strzelecki]

Cape stun at 11:12 looks off - the cape becomes gigantic for a second there. Was it like that in the original game?

[@RRe36]

That's just because the gliding/charged state on my capes is massive, behaves exactly the same with my skins in Arkham knight though

[@James-Sunderland010]

dude this is amazing, im blown away with every update video

[@ExtraGamer009]

I wanna play this lol also i love how u have implemented arkham knights combat but made it more realistic like asylums

[@ganggarr]

You should make the Batman: Hush suit. I think that would look so cool.

[@Interstellar10101]

Hey, This looks awesome man! I've seen you working on this for years and i can't wait until it launches. I do have a question tho, when you finally release this, how are you going to handle the batman trademark with DC or warner brothers??

[@AnotherBrickInTheWall-f7g]

Brilliant work man. Deserve to be proud of yourself 🎉

[@liljawa023]

Really love the attention to detail with every face. They arent arkham bruce or the directly the actor but a blend of each one but you can still clearly tell them apart and which one is which. I love seeing the decowled showcase because not to many of the Arkham Knight mods add the decowl model in the showcase( If there is a change like Owlman). Im a sucker for just looking at the showcases and the model and texture work. I cant remember but were you eventually going to do Affleck or was that another member of the modding community?

[@RRe36]

Affleck isn't something I've planned atm at least

[@assopigliatutto9812]

RRe36 will there be a possibility tomorrow to port the intensive terapy map, of your game in development, to Arkham Knight? However, the most interesting but at the same time perhaps useless question... is whether we will be able to mod the challenge maps for arkham knight game.

[@aym8323]

Amazing stuff but perhaps could i recommend something? Maybe adding something like impact frames to make batman's strikes seem more lethal and powerful?

[@hvhtrendsetter]

This game looks amazing! I feel as if you should change the lighting a little bit and make the animations smoother though.

[@RRe36]

Lighting and animations look fine to me tbh, though the former is also a bit of a matter of preference ig

[@fallvec1423]

So this is what AK could have look if the use the latest version of the engine instead of the old one

no fing way unmasked loooked soooo awsome, look at the hairs, bro how did you?? are you a 3d artist?

[@RRe36]

Well yes I am a 3D artist, but the hair mesh specifically is repurposed and edited from the KTJL bruce hair, although i did go through the hassle of baking new hair card textures and everything which was fun lol

[@awfulmuffin]

15:03 feel like i saw you lose the combo there or what would usually be a combo loss but anyway thank you for showing this is possible

[@RRe36]

I've made the combo system a bit more forgiving on counters, ground takedown attempts and gadgets, so it allows one mistake there given that the enemies are a bit more unpredictable here, although this also changes with different difficulty levels too, basically geared more towards being fun lol

[@awfulmuffin]

@@RRe36 oh okay gotcha that makes sense

[@CodeAwesome28]

You should add a specific fighting move for each Batman, aside from the Arkham one. I just think that would be cool.

[@geekseek4896]

It would be interesting if the suits had different combo variants, like the thomas wayne bat, having guns and the detective vision showing the criminal conditions as dead instead of neutralized or unconscious. That could even open a great opportunity for modding community

[@RRe36]

Check the FAQ, my project has nothing to do with arkham modding outside of me porting my own skins to knight or occasionally showcasing skins made by others that we brought into my project

[@pr1983]

love that challenge map

[@fransisigos]

The unmasked faces need a bit of work to start looking like the real thing but good start!

[@RRe36]

Tbf I'm not really going for 100% likeness accuracy on the actor faces, more like a close enough resemblance with some added fluff ontop

[@johnshrewsbury]

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

[@bloodymares]

Is it okay to ask about how Arkham Knight handles its clothing physics? I exported animations via uModel for my personal project, but I noticed the "flappy" clothing parts don't move with animations. I'm guessing they're auto-generated in-engine using a set of rules? Is it possible to bake the physics into the animation itself?

[@RRe36]

Anything with flappy bones is rigid body physics, not cloth physics, and setting the former up in unreal tends to be finnicky, would recommend looking into physics assets in detail if you want to take a stab at that

[@sharkeybelarkeyarr5935]

I think it looks really cool, ngl it would be pretty cool if there was other character like mad videos back there was catwoman.

[@dwainm4136]

Dude, how can I get this. It's so awesome!!

[@StickySp0T]

I don’t think or know if I ever asked this but when you’re working on a suit how long does it typically take you to go through the process of making it?

[@RRe36]

Depending on the suit and how much else I have to do, anything between a week and two months lol

[@edwarda.tokash8166]

Owlman's combat looks so much more clunky/heavy that it's almost like watching Robocop fighting. 😂 Great job!

[@jaydonethridge4220]

I have a question. If you where to release this as a full functional title what would you price it at?

[@gibsonisthename]

Would you ever consider making the Clooney Batman suits?

[@RRe36]

Well actually... someone might be working on them soon, and that someone would actually finish them one he starts working, unlike 90% of the attempts at schumacher suits in the modding community lmao, those suits are somehow cursed lol

[@gibsonisthename]

@@RRe36 the bat nipples are upon the horizon… Seeing the black and silver suit from the end of the movie would be chefs kiss too 🤌🏾🤌🏾

[@everia_games]

I love all the suits but one of my favourites has to be Gotham Knights Batsuit

[@BmikroB]

Everything is so top tier quality, the materials, the shaders, the lighting. I caught myself thinking that this particular style of skin shading fits Batman aesthetics much more than Rocksteady's Arkham Knight ultra-photorealistic approach, because despite B:AK still is a looker (which is crazy considering it's built on UE3!) personally I do have lots of issues with the way the characters' skin looks there... I dunno, kinda overdone to the point many many times characters end up looking... 'gross' there. Like, uncanny valley-ish gross. But your skin shader? It's perfect, period. I prefer this over Rocksteady's by a mile. And good god the Batman theme playing on the challenge map, it's just chef's kiss. I'm both IMMENSELY satisfied by just watching this, as well as super sad not to be able to play it in any way. Thank you for sharing your amazing work anyway!

[@MrXypher123]

Would love to add your Kilmer and Pattinson suits to Arkham Knight! Thye look amazing! All we'd need then is a West and Clooney suit and you will have the ultimate Movie Skin Pack, that would be the dream

[@RRe36]

[@thebilgekhan]

Everything looks great except the heads are a bit small compared to the body as proportion. And the face's stand position in Pattison buggered me a bit that's all. Great work !

[@RRe36]

Yea that's just arkham batman's somewhat strange proportions, his shoulders are massive lol

[@ccu.514]

did you change something about the freeflow combat? i notice it far more smoother and less jumpy than in the original games

[@RRe36]

Yea I've tried to keep the attack speed a bit more grounded and everything else is just the result of me coming up with very different solutions for the underlying technicals lol

[@Abstrusko]

Awesome work! Need playable build! 😁

Will the Pattinson skin be released as a mod to install to Arkham knight?

[@RRe36]

[@yodalog202]

since you are a modders i need to ask you this. is it possible to replace the faces in arkham knight with lets say the burton face for the burton suit. what i mean by it is when batman unmasks himself a couple of times in the game is it possible to make it so it would be the michael keaton face instead of the normal face?

[@RRe36]

Oh boy do I have news for you lmao, just check my latest mod releases

[@yodalog202]

@RRe36 sure will. One more question can you or do you know somone who I can talk to about creating mods that change the villain appearances in arkham knight? Because I saw that there are mods changing thugs looks so I'm guessing it's possible to change villains looks the same way I want the villains to look more like their animated series counterparts

[@t0m0ka85]

[@NDMDesignS]

where can you find this skin selection screen? It looks much better and clearer

[@RRe36]

I made it, and this also isn't a mod for the arkham games, check the FAQ

[@anonymousbrownie]

Maybe it's just because of the lighting, but everything looks too "clean". It is subjective though, so don't take my word for it. Love your work lol, can't wait to see more.

[@RRe36]

It could be a mix of lighting and post processing, since I tend to go for an extremely practical lighting approach for environments, as in lights are actually there as physical objects and in places where they'd make sense, while the post processing is just rather stylised with a heavy slant towards a filmic look due to film stock emulation and whatnot.
