Reasons why halo sucks #12

I like the plasma grenades better. And the ce firebombs all suck, so...

plasma would burn. i mean its only like 100x hotter than a strong fire.

Biped im planning to use in my halo CE game that im making. (in a different engine)
thats the idle stance. the legs are obviously in an akward position, any suggestions on where to move them to make them look right? and does the AR seem like a good size?

Curve the back leg back towards the back more.

id post more renders, but 3DS max is screwing them up. thanks, tho, they look alot better!

so you're making it for a different game then? yes? no?

im making it for a halo game, that im making in a different engine. :)
oh. 11,221 polys.

how about now? ill do the hands when i get the stance right.

fix the pelvis bone.

the last ones leg stance reminds me of a boomer from gears of war :D

Lean the body forward, curve the back leg back a bit more, and move the foot of the front leg back more while retaining the overall position of the leg.

edited the original post.

i luv t3h boomers

what are boomers? lol

Gears 1: the massive fat locust soldiers that used the grenade launcher or better known as the boomshot

Gears 2: the massive fat locust soldiers that used the grenade launcher, flamethrower (flame boomer) maulchers (grind boomers [called "grinders" by the COG soldiers]), the large knifes (butcher), the grenade knife thingy (i dont think u ever hear the weapons name in the game [fack i forgot the boomer variant name too >.<])

Gears 3: same as above, but there's a new variant. called "diggers" by the COG.

o i c.

Made the HUD for the spike.

fix teh numbers.

The size of the health bar still bothers me.

LOL asp.
anyway does anyone else have anything to say about the update? (the post with 4 pictures)

Not bad, could be better. I suggest looking at pics of people standing with rifles
like that.

Also get a good normal map. Seeing that texture without any bump just kills me.

you cant tell that its bumped? of course i wouldnt make a biped without a bump. that would kill me.
but once i get it into the engine, i have a shader i can use that will make the bump map MUCH more convincing.




every time i mess with it, it seems to get more akward.
oh well, i looked at an AFK person in CE and saw that the gun should be moved up more. fixed his stomach, before it looked like he didnt even really have one...
something still doesnt look right to me, but what do you all think?

is it going in the unreal engine?

unity3d.

i would use unreal if it wasent rediculusly dificult. idk, ill try learning it again this week and see if its any easier. if its not, im sticking with unity.
and before all start bashing unity, its more powerful than you think.

^lol c4d



I haven't modeled anything in a while.
Here is a sediment rock I sculpted in zbrush and re-topped in 3ds max.

Looks pretty good for 574 polies.

Looks sort of like a knee cap.

Anyone remember the turd he made? Lol

ye

i made waffles too.

I was remembering the thing he modeled, that looked like... you know.

abakrch, fix the right leg and arm, move his upper body forward(a little).
also what is your new game's system reqs?

as of right now, i dont have exact anythign for that, but i can tell you it requires a newer PC. it doesnt require like CRYSIS LOLZ computer, but something capable of playing newer games. graphics are leaning toward halo 3, a bit less probably. lets say they are gonna require a computer better than halo 2, but a bit less than halo 3...im doing my best.

meh...i dont know what to think of it at this point...
