Ranger Six Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Well i own't promise you guys anything for certain, but i'm planning to replace the standard low poly & blurry weapon models with nice higher poly ones ( with new textures ofcourse, altough i'll need alittle help with those ). First up are the blaster rifles. I could just use the current blaster rifle model ( for both 6 blaster rifles the same model is used ) as a reference but... A) I want to make 6 completely different looking blaster rifles. B) I don't like the original blaster rifle ( dusn't look like a rifle, but more like a carbine ) Now to do that i need your help you guys. My current attemps to create my own designs have failed horribly...so that's why i ask those with a creative mind to draw a blaster rifle(s) ( from as meany angles as possible plz ! ) and post the picture(s) here in the thread. Those who's design is selected will recieve the propper credits. Also note, please don't ask me to remake the blaster rifles from "the empire and rebellion" age because i won't do them...yet. First this pack, then i'll see about those E11's.... If you want to see a little of my previous work : ( note : these are 1ste person FPS models, not third person ones ) http://img100.exs.cx/img100/5738/aaaaa5.jpg http://img100.exs.cx/img100/4862/bbbbbb.jpg http://img100.exs.cx/img100/7224/ccccccc.jpg http://img100.exs.cx/img100/5448/dddddddd.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bneezy Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Wow! Those are top notch. I love it when the "lurkers" here finally reveal themselves for what they are. "Oh, by the way, look at my damn near professional quality models." As for the rest of you "lurkers" with super-human abilities, come out of hiding!

T7nowhere Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 Really Nice Model's. Im glad to see another modeler Here. But when you say "high poly" How high are you thinking. Don't forget that some people's PC's already crawl with KotOR KotOR's weapons really don't have to be as high poly as your FPS models sinse they will rarely be seen up close. I like your idea of replacing Bioware's 100+ box models. If your stuck for ideas though why not start with the models bio made and copy the style then make those with more detail. I would keep the models under 1000 polys though. But who knows KotOR Might not mind the High poly weps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well i was planning to keep them below 1000 polies anyway, since their world models Well...about the remaking part i'll give it a shot...but still...i'd rather have differant models, not just differant skins.

stingerhs Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 whatever you decide to do, i wish you the best of luck. ideas: you could do what t7 suggested, except maybe make the models more realistic. the rifles, for instance, look like elongated pistols. i've always thought that adding a stock would help it look more realistic. the heavy repeating blasters look okay, but the textures look like a bunch squares and rectangles on top of a model (which is what it is ). i agree that having a more detailed texture would add a lot. some users may have problems, but still, i think it would be worth both the time and the effort. good luck!!

Hybris Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 A idea for you is to make a insta-kill heavy repeater as the pistol just looks weak on Mandloran Assult armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Six Posted October 21, 2004 Author Share Posted October 21, 2004 I was bored after school so i quikly made this blaster inspired on the KOTOR blaster rifle...if you don't like it, don't worry, i'll prolly just remake the old blaster. It has 500 polies. Construction time : 45 min Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Wow! Those look great. I really don't use blasters that often, but I can definitely see how these new models would add a little more realism to the game. Hope to see more from you in the future. BTW: Any chance you know how to crack the animations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingerhs Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 ^^^^what he said. plus, i think those look much closer to the e-11, maybe as kind of an old predecessor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedHawke Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 ^^^^ I'm with bneezy! 45 Minutes to make that model? And you said you were bored too. Wow... just Wow! Very cool, very, very cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybris Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 ok 1.for 45 minutes of work then you are not simple moder you'er a pro photoshop artist much like Master Svosh 2. I most of the blaster but may you can cut of the end part of the stock or what ever that is. Also I would love to see a real weapons mod some of the weps would be: BAR, AK-47, M-16, and stockless Uzi. HK will then be able to mow down countless jedi because bullet travel fast than blaster bolts and can't be seen will out high-speed cameras. I love being a gunsmith! LOL!
