i was gonna make a penguin biped but wasnt sure as to how to go about doing so, if anyone has an idea please post

That would rock lol, you could also just make a penguine scenery. If you make a penguine scenery i would so put it in a map lol.

Ounce you model the penguine before you try and make it a biped make it a scenery object i would love to put it in a map a friend and i are making.

Realistic..i got a perfect map i would put a penguine scenery in. If you make a penguin scenery let me know i would so use it in a map.

That would be wicked lol.
But, I have to say, penguins have become a sort of cliche online. Go into any chat room and you'll see what I'm talking about.

It's not offensive nudity... I mean it is nudity but it's not like porn or anything. It's just showing how to model the human body. But anyway, yea. Hurray for penguins.

I hope someone makes a penguin scenery cause i would so use it in a map i am working on. Think about it a penguine is a snow map at the water/ice's edge just siting there would add a unique thing to a map.

One could give them physics so you can shot them, run into them and send them flying. That would be fun.

all i really want is the model, if it does not have any open edges or whatever if you make the model and texture it you could send it to me i could probably make it scenery. Or just make the model and i could probably get my friend matooba to texture it.

If you just get the model it would be okay as i think i know someone who could texture it well

i just need the model if your alredy going at it because i am one of the few people whom know how to make a biped and get it in-game

uh i am and if any one has a good penguin model youll get credit just post here and ill make it into a biped, and i was thinking along the lines of tux the linex penguin, thats where i got the idea

yes, otherwise he just moves the way it has been modeled, no movement

Any snow level would be suited for penguins. Ice Fields, Sidewinder, Arctic Wasteland, Coldsnap, Snow Canyon, the works.

Maybe it's just me but seeing penguins waddling around Sidewinder just doesn't look right.

ok whomever makes me the penguin model will get lots of credit if it works and i will do the animating

How do you model a biped?

Very carefully.

Oh, okay, with that information I think I'll go make one now.

I think it would be cool to get the penguine model, cause i want one for scenery and another wants one for making a biped. I like this idea alot.

Size for emperor penguins are from 100-130 cm tall, so whatever that would be in halo would work.

well mc is about 8 feet tall the warthog has a for foot step and penguins cant fly so the way i see it they have to be taller than they should be and since 100 cm converts to about say 40 inches and since 40 inches converts to about 3 feet then we'd have a prob, so make him about a foot shorter than mc

that would work.

Does it matter much? Smaller biped=You can put it in a smaller map and it seems like the same size= More detail because less size but same polys of map= Actually Good. And even if they cant fly, if they want in on a hog, then modify the hog to have a step on the side, lol.

I just want one to use as scenery.

Hmmm, I know the HEK Tutorial recommendation for a map is 10,000 so if you reached that, too much. Well maybe not too much, but there is about maximum you will need...

You could go a little more I bet but thats good.

when its done tell me and if its workable then youll get credit when i make it into a biped and remember it has to be just a little shorter than mc, about the size that link was in hyrule field

My guess is about 3 ft, which is 30 units.

if its 3 feet then it would look retareded getting into the warthog make it 5 which is 50 and my xfire is Tuwdburgaler once you get it done

Like i said earlier, you can make steps on the side of the hog, or animate it to jump into it.

true and the only vehicle that will be in that map is a snowmobile and a sled

no saint im creating the vehicles, and if anyone wants to help there more than welcome but this is about the penguin biped so lets stay on track ok so when the model is done i will make into biped

lemme get this straight you created half of a penguin? lol

yea thats how you make bipeds (mirrorrorrim) makes a full biped

really well ive never tried i only know how to rig them and get them in-game, and guru will you right down the anims i had a pdf on it but i lost it and need to know them all over again

keep it less than 4000

ok tell me how its going
