Bungie actually mentions this in "The Art of Halo" They designed the assault rifle on their own, then a few months before Halo was unveiled, a gun looking almost identical was released (they don't say which gun though)

Looks like the F2000 to me.

Where does my post mention that they copied the design? I was just pointing out the similarities. You people are so quick to sound so smart...

yeah, there's this line on the blade above the top of the right hand side of the handle
and the odst fingers change colour along a line on his thumb

Cubemaps.

No where, I was just clarifying, like mentioned, that the AR design was their own. The sniper rifle on the other hand had some modern day influence to it.

Ah ok. I was thinking it was another one of those fake informative/look smart posts. I'm glad your above that

Didn't they show the somewhat haloish sniper rifle in District 9

Yeah I think so, cuz I'm pretty sure the gun in District 9 is the Denel NTW-20, which is the weapon that the halo sniper was based off of if I'm not mistaken. Someone step in by all means if I'm wrong tho.

Definately looks very similar

The magazine on the side (at least I think it's a magazine) is the biggest difference though.

dont really see anything wrong with them =\

theres alot wrong with them when you know that you modeled them.

Its weird how so many people get the rails wrong. You would think that with all the other details being correct, that the rails would be an easy replication. But I guess not...

I don't see anything wrong with the rails, so either I'm blind, or someone needs to point it out to me.

They are pretty accurate, and better than most. I wouldn't even bother changing them.

Off topic and Troll posts were deleted. Stay on topic please: Weapons - Works in Process thread [WIP]

so i finally got around to fixing shaders on all my weps on my new good gfx pc. heres the snow shotgun re did.

Pictures would have been better, you can't really see the texture

And set your weapon type in the tags to shotgun so it doesn't do that reload glitch.

To be quite honest, it doesn't look really snowy at all :/ It just looks brighter than normal, and the whole thing is evenly white. If it were snow camo, it should have a pattern to it, or if it was just snow on the shotgun, it wouldn't be evenly white.

Stop trying, drop what your fixing on it and completely redo it. Do not edit the original diffuse and make a snow camo pattern and put it in the detail slot map.

grr..... on page 100 of this part of the forum you guys didnt complain about the camo....

I have rips, but I still do custom! -[modeling] Never forget!

For snow stuff, I like how Crysis did some of their stuff by just making the original textures look frozen and having the scopes all frosty, but I suppose that is just because of having such a dramatic fall of temperature. lol

95% I DIDNT FIX A LOT OF ERRORS STILL! I just want a bare model first!
Back Incomplete

Looks pretty nice. I take it you just got to finish the butt of the gun and some other fixes?

Nobody should ever talk crap to you for being a ripper with no skill after that.

It's could use some touch-ups but overall it's real nice.

Well ripping has a purpose. If you want nice, fast and are willing to give up originality then ripping is great. Just because someone rips more than they actually make doesn't make it any less in worth.

Done by IMBrokeRU. I had no part in this, unless you want to count the sounds for the AR :3

I'd like to see a rotation that merges to a new shape at the end. Now that would interest me.

What happens when you pick up Camo?

Nothing, since like the ammo counter, it will not disappear.

Now just modify the error and acceleration/deceleration.

Grenade timer starting after first bounce, instead of when it comes to rest. There's an option in the projectile tag that has this setting, but doesn't work, always detonates after it comes to a rest (iirc). Just a small thing.

Now Starting Halo: Reach Sniper Rifle

sexy :] and what do you plan to do with this piece of epicness?

How does the AR look polywise? Would it be suitable for CE?
