In Maya when people want to put something awkwardly shaped on something else awkwardly shaped... we set them to rigid bodies, apply a gravity vector, and let physics run its course. Perfect stacking o.o

Umm... 3ds, maya 8.0, not sure about gmax, Blender 3d. (Blender isn't the best go wtih 3ds max 8)

Those are the only ones I've worked with, I did use Blender 3d; For about 3 weeks or so, and then I found 3ds max. So i'd say go with the 3ds max trial.

Aye, capin'. lol. I fixed the smoothing errors. The Pictures are of the flash-light which i'm having a hard time making it dynamic for halo. I hope you guys like it. I'll keep you posted on how its coming along; in the mean while tell me what you think of it. =D

Not really considering i got it to work. ;p. It's fine it exported fine just its not animated which i am gonna do. I'm fixing a few problems with the flash-light. its being a whore! keeps flickering whe its psawns. it like flickers every 2 seconds. So i fixed that issue, I maay release the tags when im done in this thread..no wait has to be done in the releae forum anyway.
The Flash light it fixed up. Tell me what i can fix bout it.

I've seen a SPAS with almost as many polies make it into Source just fine...
Here's an idea.. Maybe this isn't source.

Phopojijo
July 25th, 2007, 12:31 AM
I've seen a SPAS with almost as many polies make it into Source just fine...

Oh also, the ejection port is on the wrong side. Mirror it horizontally.Thats because Source is a very uncomplicated engine... (in the shader sense). Instead of concentrating on lighting detail, it concentrates on pushing polygons.

Does that make it bad? No, its just the design choice. But it also explains how you can get such high polycounts into Source.

Does that make it good? No, its a design choice. It explains how some newer engines look better, but ultimately have smaller triangle counts.

As an example -- UnrealEngine3 has a maximum of approximately 60,000 triangles for the characters in the scene (all characters combined, source: Epic's Unreal Technology (http://www.unrealtechnology.com/html/technology/ue30.shtml) page) This equates to approximately 4,000-12,000 for 5-15 loaded players. This is low, even for current gen. However -- its made up for by the lighting detail (normal mapping, parallax self-occlusion, etc.)

My guess for the major reasoning behind this is -- basically -- you don't need to get the CPU to vertex-shift a texture... but you do for non-static meshes.

Really? I had no idea you could have such a high polycount on an fp model in any engine. Thats pretty cool.

Alrighty then, I am adding a few more smoothing numbers, and fixing the flashlight, and I will most likely get it in game and test it out. Maybe later on I may need beta testers. But not now, I'll alert you when the time comes. Here are some renders of my beautiful trigger (remade trigger ;) )

http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z115/daax_2007/meh2.jpg
http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z115/daax_2007/meh.jpgIt's a SPAS-12. There's also the SPAS-15, so it's an important distinction. I suggest having a look at a side-on pic of one, so you can see the raised portion of the heatshield towards the rear. There's also somewhat of a lip on the back of the slide, which you'll have to model in. If I had a camera, I'd take a picture of my airsoft replica, but I don't have access to one right now. Also, your bolt is completely on the wrong side of the gun, and there's a bit of the muzzle you're missing. You're also forgetting the rear portion of the ghost ring sight. The SPAS-12 stock also has a hook mounted on the end of it, which allows the stock to be supported by an outstreched arm, enabling it to be fired by a single hand. You're also missing both safety levers, and the rear portion is slightly misshapen. You're also forgetting the forward and rear sling attachment points, and breach detail. Your bolt handle is off, and the slide goes up a little too far on the sides. SPAS-12 doesn't have room for a flashlight there. It's all magazine space. Also, shotguns don't get that kind of trigger. Additionally, the notch in your forward sight serves no purpose whatsoever, since

A. A shotgun doesn't need that kind of precision, and

B. It's too far away from the eye for it to have any positive effect whatsoever.


Remember when I told you it was missing "a few details"? I just listed them.
Christ, did you do this all from memory? You're developing the same bad habits as Peng :fail:

You might also extend the barrel length a bit, to compensate for the lengthened flashlight, since the SPAS-12 does have a longer barreled variant:
