your mag has irregular dimensions, some parts of it aren't equal.

i would if chokingvictim released the sauce

Sadly you can't do that. However they could make a seperate animations, and put one for the melee attack and one for the firing attack.
Unless you use opensauce

No, it is, as he said though Choking hasn't released the sauce:

yup, my mistake I edited my post.

I haz a question. Has anyone actually done a weapons backpack switch where there is an animation that makes you have to grab the weapon off your back and not just have it magically switch before you can use it?

My WIP

I want to make a similar weapon, with the same number of faces on cylinders, with pieces placed in the millimeter!

Um...this time I agree with L0d3x. The movement of the slash doesn't make sense. The take out animation seems a bit....for lack of a better word, "weak". The idle has too much movement I think, and the posing looks pretty bad since all he does is robotically open his hand and close it. The attack animation was too "jumpy" and the way you twisted the arm during the animation seems awkard. The one where you slice down looks okayish. As for the grenade throw, it looks fine except that I don't think you should see the hand go up and then back down with the grenade in its hand this time. It can reach down (below the player's view) to "pull" out a grenade then do the throwing animation.

On a seperate note, no one crit my sword yet :/.

Pretty much the 15th word in from your post.

1. Stop saving as png's.
2. http://www.moddb.com/tutorials/beretta-9000-video-tutorial - Follow it.

it was a tif. imageshack converted them.
im using C4D for this.

Nah, Zoro Roronoa from One Piece. The sword is called Sandai Kitetsu.

tif is just as bad.

tif sucks so much balls. It is even worse than .bmp. Why do people use it regularly like it was a jpg or something.
Edited by DEEhunter on May 11, 2010 at 07:13 PM

its just a render. why does it matter? not trying to be rude, im just asking. im probably missing something obvious..

Image types never really bothered me, as long as they weren't BMP. All TIF does is just makes the image size bigger. Anybody with a decent connection won't be affected negatively.

boo hoo guys, it took half a millisecond longer to load the image, I must go on forums and complain about this NOW

E: im a ninja

Who are you ^? Lulz, gtfo.

Not everyone has got fast internet and for some people it might take longer to display the image. And actually, my home computer is old and tif/png images take up more memory than needed which slows down my system when I have a lot of applications open.

So displaying a png image is wasteing memory which I could be using to run other programs. So it is good practice and polite to save as jpeg so everyone can view the image with speed and ease.

Get some thoughtfulness for other people...

lolzzzzzz my bad, my internet sucks too and it takes like 5 secs to load his pics, but I was failtrolling :P

does anyone want to offer any critisism...?before i work on making it detailed and textured...?

my crit is, honestly, start over, look at the Beretta 9000 tuts. those aren't even good enough to go in the first quake games. just start over, and look at how guns look, look at reference images and such. look at perspective views of guns, hell look for free 3d models like on turbo squid and study them. and this is nice crit compared to what other guys here can say, trust me i went tru this part too. if ur gonan mdoel stuff for halo, use 3dsmax/Gmax, mor at least model them in wings3d and take them into gmax to texture/animate/export. just do what the guys above said, follow the 9000 tutorial. don't wanna do it, then there is nothing i can tell u. follow their advice, they may act like ars's sometimes but most them actually do know what they are doing.

Hows about you two retards just tell him what file type to save the image as, because all i see is
"dont use png.tif.jpg or gif"
You think you are helping? you are not.

If it bothers you that your bandwidth is crap and your pc is crap, then thats your problem, not his.
You would offer helpful advice if you actually cared.

Unlike JPG or GIF formats TIF format files are uncompressed and have no loss. The JPG format has information loss in the compression scheme and GIF formats are limited to 256 colors whereas TIF is not. This is why a similar TIF file is much smaller in JPG and GIF formats because information, either color or pixels, is sacrificed to make the file Jpg ot GIF file smaller. The PNG format uses lossless compression similar to GIF but allows for more color information in the file. Each has their own uses depending on what is more important size, compression, color or loss.

Although 90% of the time you would not really notice the colour loss in a jpeg image on this type of image...

And yes, I gave him crit in my first post before someone decided to try and be a smart ass...

Telling him is sucks is not crit, lol.

You told him it was the same thing as the 15th word in his post ("sucks"), then proceeded to whine and moan about image types.

I don't know what the deal is, rendering out as .jpeg in Max seems to work just fine for me ._.

(I'm not showing this off by the way, I think I already have. This is just for example)

My point exactly...

cause that makes your friends like you, right?

I use PNG. Because im cool like that. What do you use? (Dont actually answer.. I dont care. Was doing the MR T thing.)
Edited by Joshflighter on May 12, 2010 at 09:09 PM

harhar

How was that "your point exactly"?
Hunter, seriously read this page again, then please copy and paste the part where you said anything like that, or offered any suggestions as to what arbach should do about the images.

Come to think of it, I find it odd that we're complaining about image size when maps for this game can be well over 100mb.

I don't know of any other game that has maps so large.

Enough evidence for you?
