He is good, though i wish he was parmesan xD

More of an Emental person myself :o
But yeah nice improvements :)

Actually, they are modelled at their correct scale, but all of the weapons in Halo are set to be scaled up slightly when on the ground. It's in the .weapon tag, I think, I reset all the scales back to 1 - makes everything look more convincing, and weapons being dropped from animations don't suddenly change size. I think the original reason for making them bigger was so that they were easier to see, but I think its a bit of a ham fisted way of doing it.
Anyway, bit off topic there, my bad x3

Slap Happy, would you hate me if I said I thought the shaders were a touch too dark? I think it works well, but if it were me I'd have it a smidgeon lighter. Looks awesome though, my opinion is ultimately irrelevant :)

Actually they are only scaled up in Multiplayer, in singleplayer, the 3P models of weapons on the ground are the same size as the model while a biped is holding the weapon. In multiplayer, the models are much larger.

lol thanks guys. here is the detail map on. what do you guys think? if i need to edit it will.

Edited by Cheddars on Jan 16, 2012 at 12:50 AM

I think the detail map put the shaders off their balance. You might have to edit it more.

Oh, really? Didn't realise! I just keep remembering that cutscene from The Maw where MC is holding that MAAASssive grenade... Hah.

This is somewhat unrelated but how in the world did you change the almighty colors of Bourrin's Spartans?

good to see you have the patients to keep editing when people add suggestions cheddars.
my knowledge of detail maps is little, but it looks very blurred, the armour and visor look like they need more shine/refelection because it just looks really dull, i can tell it's not your vid card settings that are low as the pistol is shiney.

hope that makes sence.

It does now.

If you're going to correct something so trivial, you might as well proof-read his entire comment. Punctuation errors, misuse of the word "patients," lack of capitalization....

He communicated well enough to deliver his points.

Why doesn't someone create a graphic overhaul for stock bipeds? Simpler than completely remodelling them, but still makes everything look a bit less outdated.

LOL is all i have to say. if i typed the way i talked that would really give you something to try
to fix spellings on. who stole your pretzels echo?

looks over scratched i think, decal is still jarring.
Also it looks kinda stretched on the chest, maybe it's a bit directional? like he's been through a carwash made of steel wool.

Looks overscratched and looks stretched. Set the detail scales lower.

new detail settings (gotta do other shaders too):

blue visor:


@dumbai ive made a tutorial i might release on making proper multis and desaturated colour changes. i just gotta get someone to read through it and approve.
edit: decal fix:

Edited by Cheddars on Jan 17, 2012 at 12:55 AM

The decal is much better now! still looks like it's been kept really clean while the rest of the armour got scratched o.o

Yeah I used the shader model tag. I realized before I forgot to tick at the top 'alpha blended' or something.

WTF HAX HOW DID YOU MAKE IT BLEND SO WELL IN SHADER MODEL?

There is a flag to use shader models as decal

Hehe nice, now make a viking metal version! :)

I think a screaming grunt could be pretty wicked :)

If you release that I'll use it as an easter egg in Lumoria :)

Spiderman guys.

I've returned to say even Father Christmas is saddened by the fact not one but two people have never played Half life.
I know who will be getting coal next year.

Well you could take 7 coal and craft them into a gift from the great gift pile? (steamjokes)

Spiderman Friend or Foe right??
dude, that game sucks! :S

I thought it was decent at the time. I just liked playing as the villains.

Awesome, thanks l28.

Th title of the vid is right.

I suggest you simply start, unless you really want o have it where the hunter wrecks his gun.

In which case, speed the down motion up, and make it more fluid.

I don't get it... what is he supposed to be doing?

Destroying the gun.

Like I said, restart, OR fix it to make it look more alive.

Or try another type of melee.

And I want to see a hunter explode with all bits and pieces dismembered.

Like when you do a beat down in reach and plant a grenade on a vehicle, only with hunters :D.

Oui oui monsieur.

Ingame.
