What is that mess? For one your not rendering from the "Perspective" view, your rendering with "User", which is bad.

And all it is, is a box or something with a LOT of tessellation and Smooth Selection. You do NOT model BSP's like that..

Yeah... except he's NEVER gonna get the rest of the work done.

Yes, you are a noob.... at modeling... and modding...

What's the point to this if your going to release it like that for anyone to do whatever with it? Any old fool could have spent three seconds making that.


Here guys, I made the base shape of the Reach PoA. I'm gonna release and you can do whatever with it.

Your an idiot...

Lol @ people who try to tell hunter he's wrong about modeling.

Plane modelling was a bit much for me...
I'll have to get back to it later.

plane modeling is the way to go.

Starting animations.
After last time's wreckage, I decided to try again.
Noob animator is noob blah blah blah, yeah I know, but I intend to learn and be better.
Left hand placement is way off but I'll move it around in the morning... It's 8:30 right now...

What you are saying is that bloodgulch is a retarded green piece of damper.

@hiralis :

You have obviously no talent, so instead of trying convincing us with fallacies that your things are good : WORK, and try to improve.

Also try to get a real auto criticism

Move the gun down, you don't have to use Broke's positioning for it (because I know that's from Broke's BR Animations just imported...or you copied it).

*facepalm*
Umm Hilaris, meet me at Xfire. There's something I want to talk to you about.

You call those alpha pictures? Looks like he just took pictures of rock and grass off google images and threw it on the "bsp" as you call it. I believe the correct term would be placeholders.

Yes, you shouldn't model things from a box cause you don't know what you're doing and ultimately it will just remain, well ... a box.

Nope. Those are my 100% Spartan 314 origins.
Just tried to copy what was happening in Reach, but the gun is always moving around so I needed some advice as to where to move the gun.

^Using that as a ref.

For some strange reason, those seem to be the parts of the BSP that might take some more actual effort...

How about now?

yes that is perfect keep it

Gamma taught me one very important thing about animating, and that's that the weapon doesn't always have to point towards the center. I know it's tempting to do so at first, but sometimes it makes the gun look like it's not pointing center. If you leave the gun straight (more or less) it generally looks better.



If you look at that picture, the center of the screen is a little bit below where the muzzle flash touches that left pillar, while the batle rifle is aimed lower and slightly to the right of the center, yet it still looks like it is aiming at the reticule.

I told Gamma that lesson because I use it all the time.

One trick that became part of my every origin was to make the rotation for Y: 1 or -1, depending on whichever one made it turn downwards.

I think I'll have this as final.

wip

Thats looks liek a good work in the making.

Maybe you can see everything through the little sight? It still looks kinda like a covenant weapon. Good job.

And what i'm saying is that it is more or less a box which has been tessellated and then verts moved with soft selection on.

Even if thats a modified bloodgulch, the point stands as thats how it could be made. So, either way you have made a crappy modification of bloodgulch by just removing the cliffs and then called it a new map, it looks poor, pointless and pathetic.

What is the reason to remove the cliffs which create the general theme of the map? So now what will it be? A floating island in the middle of whatever area the skybox texture has?

So, to put it briefly it looks like something that came out of your ass.

@Cheddars, put an AA filter on and render a perspective shot. Provide a wireframe too :)

ok but credits tucker for the original model
that pic was origins and an edit of the model i did which some parts needed fixing
i am also texturing it though but might make my own textures this time instead of rips

Nobody will want to use it, you should bake some of those details into the texture so people can actually play without dropping in 29.5 fps!

Then people can't go: FRMT sukz cuz theyz be using ripzzz 100% allz the time. Now it's only 80%? XD

can i haz tags?
turbo smooth on that to please. it would make it looks nicer (inside joke)

Hey Hydro, got yer' turbosmooth here, lol

hell ya

Right on!

I'm doing DMR animations, but I need Halo Reach refs. I remember a video on some thread that showed the melee, firing, idle, for every Reach weapon. If you don't have that, could you at least point me in the right direction to a video?

E: http://www.xfire.com/video/4ba4cd/
Well... terrible animation is terrible but... yeah...
Going to fix things next week when I've got no science fair to worry about.

E2: http://www.xfire.com/video/4c6a7d/
My first EVER animations...

P.S.
Fixed the grenade throw timing.
Will clean up the reload too.
