First character I've ever made fully myself. Model, hi res sculpt in mudbox, unwrapping, textures, the lot. Usually I just do unwrapping and textures, so this time it was a bit of an experience.
All up, the main character is 4017 triangles and the egg is 830 triangles, so it fell below my initial poly budget which is great.
You can see some wierdness with the shadows and the alpha planes on the tentacles, but that's just because of my volumetric light interfering with alpha raytracing. I don't really know how to fix it :/ Edited by D4NO on Sep 21, 2008 at 10:45 AM hmmmm, wish i knew how to do stuff like that

I just realized, OF COURSE those eggs could spawn AI infection forms. That's what happens when you have a Carrier form explode. Is the larger flood an egg dispenser sort of thing or does it actually move? (it doesn't look mobile)

Arent feet.
They're actually it's arms. It holds them upright witht he bottoms facing outwards, the wings coordinate back and forth to each other to provide lift and the middle fin acts as a rudder.
It's in the posiition it is now so that when it does get rigged, it'll have the maximum amount of geometry to work with, rather than modelling the creature in a pose, losing data when you go to move it into a position that isn't native to it's modelled pose. It's the very same reason character artists model characters with their arms and legs outstretched at their sides. More room to animate.

That's sick, it's going to DROP the eggs on you to deploy a shield-draining effect and infection forms. Good idea. Edited by DarkHalo003 on Sep 23, 2008 at 10:06 PM

I suppose it should follow the flood naming convention, but wouldn't it be good to have at least one form have a nickname? I mean, it's clumsy enough having to call flood forms "combat forms", "carrier forms", and "infection forms". It would be annoying to add "Flying form" or something along those lines to that list. Think about it, which of these sounds better:
"Oh crap, flood flying forms!"
or:
"Oh crap, buzzards!"

Did I ever say that I didn't rip them? I merely said that I was making them playable in Halo. I'm inferring you are Spartan04, am I correct? Not that it means any value to me, but isn't wm_combo protected? Unless, you plan on releasing the biped tags, so =/ I beleive there is a map entitled, avalanche. It is on this site. It has several rippable tags, INCLUDING a gman biped.
