OMFG! :D :D :D :D :D

Something about the armor I don't like. Its missing something.

Well, consider this. Since CMT is already using custom Brutes, custom Elites, custom Hunters, and custom Grunts... pull your own conclusions.

I agree, it seems kind of bland compared to the rest of the skin. Love the detailing on the skin though.

Agreed.

Having its head blow off is just disgusting and un-halo like in a way I can't describe. Maybe its methane pack could blow off? Or its gas mask?

Anyway, speaking in terms of Halo's engine, its technically impossible for a bit of the grunt to blow off and kill the other part. In the case of Flood forms with destrcutable body bits, the destructable pieces of the body, when blown off, and no effect on the body health of the flood. So, if you created a Grunt which head could blow off, the Grunt would still continue walking, firing and talking when the head was blown off 0_o

By the way, since when do 12 year olds enjoy zombie killing games?

just to add on to the list, lulz

@Rooster: You win a sugary pasteie of your choosing that is win!

@Soviet: I must have skiped over it some how sorry.

So any updates? Also have one of the CMT guys give you my AIMs next time your on, I gotta talk to you about all this.

You guys have a decent hornet yet? If not I'm thinking about making the one I have as my project. I'll put some time in it learn some new stuff and make it cmt worthy.

Why is this question on this thread? Stop trying to get off topic.



as you can see the head a really great. I could still work on the back part, but thats not the problem. The problem is the horrible unwrapped torso. This thing is impossible to work with because, I cant bake an AO map (ugly edges), and I cant use a shine map because its too low poly.
Here's what I suggest we do. I think we should just re-model the torso, if not the entire grunt. That way, I will be able unwrap it the way I want and it will look A LOT better. Also, as long as it has the same proportions as the original grunt and is in approximately the same position as a default grunt), we shouldn't have to rig or reanimate it. I think its worth it cuz it would look really half assed when you have a very low poly grunt standing right next to an amazing HD elite.

Also, we gotta find a way to make that red eye disappear when the grunt is sleeping. xD

The head does look totally awesome. It's good that theres gonna be some custom grunts too :D.

We're not going to do custom grunts.

Unfortunately no... its sad, but true.

why not?

To much work.

So these won't be in SPV2, but they WILL be open sourced?

No, they're going to be in SPV2.

nu

You cant "apply" a bump map, only bake them in.

that's exactly what Im doing.

My bad

They ARE going in CMT.

wtf? Get rid of that post, idiot.

If CMT's replcing the Spirit dropships with Phantoms, then you or whoever's in charge'd better take out the curl-back grunt design.

Nobody ever said we were...

I said 'if'. But I guess CMT's already very busy, I doubt they would.

We never planned on having them anyway. Its not that we're too busy, it's that we don't want to.

And relating to the grunts, are they still fun to shoot?
