Origins on that gun don't look bad, ICEE. I'd suggest moving them a little down and too the right though, to me the butt of the gun seems to be a bit too close to the camera.

If you've already started animating though don't bother lolz

you should start a seperate topic about that,
or simply read a tutorial.
to use custom weapons, you need to compile maps, it won't magically appear in halo by just placing them in your directory like most other games, halo works on compiled maps containing everything but the engine

Haha, thanks. I did experiment thoroughly with moving the gun more to the right, before i ever even posted it here, but the profile of the gun is so odd that it really does look ugly when shown off too much. Also centered tends to be more my style.If I move it down, the edge of the magazine may not be visible, which I feel would make it a lot harder to do the reload.

I have lost faith in everything now.

Cool, did you skin those parts?

Gay. Silencer is cool, red dot is gay. Looks weird without that metal bit at the front of the pistol. The pistol also has no rails for attachments, an the red dot sight would be bigger than that. It is also not needed.

I'm not that great @ skinning. :(

the halo 1 pistol is frickin huge. the red dot sight is fine.
youre right about the rails though. red dots need rails.
E: make the red dot a tad bigger. not too much though

aint that the cod4 reflex sight?

Nope, it's actually DarkElfa's reflex sight from his "Avenger" M4 for CSS. And if there are enough ppl who like it i'll put it in a map, and I will give credit to darkelfa too. (obviously)


Another WIP -------> Snow Camo AR. All Textures by myself this time, lol.

Cool, but that wouldn't really camouflage you in a snowy environment.

From what I see from the type of bullet in the pic I guess it's a sniper ar?,nice it looks great.

its a 7.62

Ok but I'm not that much of a weapon expert but I'll assume as in 7.62mm which doesn't seem like a sniper bullet.

5.56 actually (it would be stupid to use a 7.62 in an assault rifle) p.s: not tryin' to be a dick
Edited by C y b o r G on Jun 28, 2009 at 06:29 PM

have you read the info for the ma5b? it fires 7.62 ammo.
so does an ak47 FYI.

truth^

So it's like a silenced AR?, coolio, still keep it up it looks great.

Actually, 7.62 is rather high for a standard assault rifle. And the AK-47 is an old and outdated firearm. It has long since been revamped and the newer series (AK-108 to 101) fire 5.56 or smaller. 7.62 is better for DM rifles, except using x51mm rather than x39mm.
However I like the actual bullets in the magazine >_> not a fan of the camo texture. And the pistol looks horrid with present day attachments lazily thrown on.

Also don't like the pump animation on the shotgun. You don't need to turn your shotgun to the left to cock it. It tends to make for a longer animation sequence which is a pain in the ass when in game if not properly balanced.

Ok guys your knowage of weaponess and my apparent lack of off it just makes me feel dumb ;( . Also so it's a silence AR ok ... it's still looks cool to me though ...

Any tips on bettering the AR that i've done?

this is what i said too. icee said he turns it left because the stock is long and that it would take somebody with long arms to pump it without turning it, but i think its still going to far to the left too.

as for the ammo thing, i figured it wasnt necessary to go into detail, and i was just pointing out that there ARE some assault rifles that use the 7.62 round.

Shotguns in general have long stocks, including the one I own. It's not difficult to pump the gun without moving it, the action is very smooth. Also unless that gun specifically pumps outward than inward, most shotguns go inward than outward. I understand it also just looks cooler to have that animation too but it typically just ends up being a pain in the ass during a firefight.

just to be clear, im assuming that we are talking about icee's shotgun anim. he animated a neostead 2000, which actually does pump outward instead of inward. i think thats why the long stock becomes an issue.

Yea, I figured he was, since that is the only animated video on the page :)

I've never actually seen one in action but it still wouldn't be out of reach.

ive never seen one in action either, but I felt that it may look that way in fp view. Also I just like to turn the gun while pumping, because it enunciates the pump. it makes it look more obvious. This isn't the first complaint i've gotten though so in the future i may re-think the way I do it.


what im workin on now:
