So yes, a render, but it's still spotty as hell (Halp?).
Anywho:
Some notes for ye: The horizontal indentations on the inside walls, I'm thinking of having them act as some kind of light source, to illuminate the floor and pedestal of the platform more clearly. The pedestal itself will hold a weapon and two grenades on top, and should be immediately apparent. I apologize if the pedestal might be a little difficult to make out, just let me know if it's problematic and I'll get a closer render.
So, yes, thoughts?
improving.
if you dont like the grainyness of your image, then just have he renderer cast more rays. i assume you're rendering with a normal raytracer setup, just increase the numbers of rays cast. also makes the render take longer though.
Ah, k, I'll see if I can find such a setting (As you can already tell, I have no idea what the hell I'm doing with renders :lol:).
Looks cool botolf
Yea that is nice botolf.
Thanks for the comments, all :D
byah. I'm gonna add little ramps to the side that will connect to the main deck a la light bridge.

No, they're part of forerunner runes. You could just take the circle out and add a cryptic looking rune there, and it would look much better :(Quote:

NOT. Also, animate the fingers, they look crap.Quote:

Anyways, what particularly bugs you about the fingers?
When he flicks the reload back (i forgot what its called...and its not cocking is it...that word still makes me laugh...oh there is the little firedragon still inside).
His hand is like open, it doesn't look natural to me, I'm sure Snafy will have more to say...
fap
Massacre you forerunner structure looks awesome, *hands gold flaky star*.
Reminds me of the level 'The Covenant' on Halo 3.
^^agreed. other than that, like the motions...Quote:

Hold your hand out in front of you, look at your fingers, see how they at rest point along the x axis while your palm points vertically along the y axis. Make the hands in the animation look like your hands when you pull them towards you.Quote:

Psh, this what you talking about in the job topic, right? You don't even have the original dydx animation thingy stuff of the marine, you can just move when you're stunned. :vQuote:

To be completely honest, I played that level before and during the making of this, repeatedly, just because I liked the forerunner architecture so much. Also, dual scarabs ain't that bad either.Quote:

K, smiley spam over.
Looks awesome.
I concur
ouch you need to re-rig that arm. the way it bends is full of ouch.
You will not see that part of the arms in game, so I don't think that's a real problem :)
Looks awesome as always.
USE PNG'S >:U
also red and blue elites FTW!!
So, the ending sucks (known) and I need to work on the general motion some, but what do you think of it so far? I think it would improve on the animation so much if the sound were added actually...
Also, youtube screwed my avi over... made the colors and shit go all weird. :\
[edit] This version is better, though it doesn't stream afaik. It may be worth the look (sinec the youtube version is shit tbh).
http://files.filefront.com/pistol+re.../fileinfo.html
Um.... shouldn't he be re-cocking it pulling the top back or something? I'm not entirely sure how pistols like that work per se... but I thought you needed to do that too. Maybe just the H1 pistol?
In a real pistol (Not sure for all of them) you wouldn't need to, or atleast when I was firing my grandpas new 9mm Glock you didn't have to.
I was thinking when you reached the end of a clip the top section of the barrel housing would stay forward until recocked...
Forward as in open?
When you fire the last bullet, the ejection port will open, eject the casing and stay open, and then when you put in the next clip and hit a little slider stop (for lack of a better word) it closes the port and the weapon, is ready togo.... Atleast for a glock
I think the pistol from the game he just pulls back the slider for looks, but I don't know its an imaginary gun and I've only fired a few handguns in my life.
This is the reload-full animation. Since there is already a bullet still in the chamber, all that is needed is a new magazine, and it's ready to go.
that's a good animation. i love it how you don't chock in the mag in one go, but just set it in, and give it a slap.
i want a full version, with the bullet loading thing whateveritscalled
I hate when people do these on dark backgrounds, it's hard to see the dark gloves on the black background.
that being said, I'm no gun expert but I prefer it to the default animation :)
Wow that's REALLY well done man, should put that in a map!
Actually, the mag out part is ew, and I should redo it. I got the mag in part from leet actually (it should remind you of his). Also, the background isn't really that dark. Youtube for some reason changed the brightness of my video.
Pretty nice. Got a few nusiances, that I personally dont like, but it might vary between people's opinions.
1-
The hand snaps back too fast from the mag in position to the hold position. Needs to be smoother or longer.
2 - Mag in is kinda stiff, sure that can be fixed up easily.
Its fine, when your a super soldier cyborg, and have been loading pistols since you were seven you would look like that too... in fact, I look like that when I load pistols... there really inst any need for a jitter/stutter
Looks nice. As been said, the stutter might be unnessecary, but it looks nice, as if more force is needed to put in the magazine. That's also my problem, does a magazine need that much force to be pushed in the pistol?
Har, look what I found on my photobucket folder :v

Man, I really liked that scarab and enforcer... Too bad they got hit by an HDD accident.
:fail: do not want.
the best of those by far is the flying this, i forgot what it's called omgrofl :O!
So I put it in-game. Tbh, it's nowhere near being real in-game material yet. The origins are a little off from where I placed them, and I have the FOV increased so it's farther out.
Also, ending is still extremely ugly (I haven't even attempted to fix it yet <_<). There is no reload sound because the animation's time isn't set yet, and the sound would be better edited later.
He seems to be doing an extra flick with his left hand when they return to the idle position, almost like flipping the bolt after a reload on a rifle.....
love the general idea. cant wait to see you finished....
And what's that red thingy next to the legs? A Barn?
Or the Scarab's lunch?
Elvis! :woop:Quote:

its in displace map format so all the variations in height can be seen.

I got frustrated with my modern combat gun, so I decided to take a break and try using my imagination. Story behind this one is it's an old ww2 silenced sniper rifle made by hecklar and koch. Used in secret operations where silence and a strong round were necessary. It'll probably look silly to a lot of you, but I like it so far. Need to do the scope and the other side.

Meh, it's not for a full out mod or anything so the backstory really doesn't even serve a purpose anyways, lol. I just thought it had more of a ww2 style. And hey, they had ghost sights then, they just never used them <.<Quote:

A little update on my sp map, since i havent posted something in ages and my birthday is today..
First glance: I like the cliff textures.
Second glance: make those covenant walls bowed.
Yes and yes. The cliff textures are great, and the modeled cliffs are terrible. Needs more variation.Quote:

Besides, this is different than others because it plays with the exterior section as a place that bears foot-traffic, unlike in sidewinder or danger canyon; however, it doesn't have an end all choke point, like Wartorn or Grove.
I'm also straying a bit from the classic throw tons of caves and bridges in to make it interesting, and instead going for more open and yet interesting terrain, like on Valhalla.
cool.Quote:

Well actually, I'm trying to stay as open-minded as possible and then just take the ideas people give and then beta them to dust; who knows what could've been that one change that makes a map play perfectly.
Mass you did some shading on this one!! :dance:
Just as long as its well thought-out, I'm sure that it will be a great map. Just suggesting ideas that I have known to work.
I might be able to put up a paint-sketch of the map that I am working on, which is a myriad of compact and connected Forerunner structures positioned around a grassland courtyard, with a pair of two-way teleporters (conveniently located near to the flags) taking you to the opposite side of the map (Red Base in the north, Blue Base in the west). The layout is similar to Terminal, the compact and dual-level aspect is inspired by Chill Out, and the environment is inspired by Ascension. Plus it will have waist-high grass in many of the outside areas. All weapons and vehicles are unmodified by the way.

Heres another pic
Yes fully working droppods (i am aware that the elites hand is going through it, it will be fixed)
EDIT: i need to make the pods more blue
Just make them more "Covenant Standard Color". They don't necessarily need to be blue. Make it how you want it.Quote:

Now that I can see the cliffs fully, they are indeed (currently) ugleh.
Updated, other side is done. Just need to add a scope, possibly a bipod, and then optimize. I'ce hardly cleaned up much during the process so its 3564 tri's atm. At this point I think the backstory can be dropped and I'll just say this is my concept of an H&K rifle, lol.

Needs moar purple and less shininess.
Fixing rooster
Made another foregrip for it. Meh, I dunno yet. It's kind of hard to make it go into a front sight because I made the receiver so thick. It was really meant to match up to the original foregrip I made for it. Also, there's not a lot of detail I can think of yet, especially since I put the cocking lever on the receiver and cba to move it to the top of the gas chamber. I'm still going to keep working on this foregrip though it doesn't quite meet expectations. 4544 tris, though it's a hell of a lot of cylindrical stuff.

heres a pic of a gun i have been working on for about a month im not fully finished..expect some more pics later

Holy crap dude that looks awesome! I see errors here and there but I'm sure your going to fix those. Of course it's extremely high poly but I don't think you plan on getting this ingame.
looks pretty decent. there's too many errors to call it good for me though
yeah.. its one of my best guns and im fixing those errors ..i didnt even see them till you mentioned them...so far it has 26,781 pollys..thats just what you see in that picture..i imagine its going to have more since im making the barrel super high polly
im glad you think it looks good..thought i was going to get alot of criticism since i just joined here..ive been at halomaps most of the time
*ahem*

Notice the nonplanars and the detail.
Unless, you actually modeled it yourself, and contributed the model on to the website.

That's pretty dissapointing, and it's even worse due to the fact that you stated a few times that you created it when you didn't.
Silly fucktard. Go choke to death on your own ejaculate.

Took longer to render then to actually model, lulz. Thats what happens when I get bored and have to model something to keep myself sane when Video Games aren't an option. Size wise it should be pretty accurate considering I actually had the 9mm casing right in front of me and I measured everything out, although I didn't have the actual bullet part of it. I had to eyeball that.
Hey dipshit, do you have the slightest clue how fucking disrespectful it is to claim someone's work as your own? Get the fuck out and die. I knew something was wrong the moment you said "halomaps".Quote:

Oh, so you fixed up a model to look exactly like one from some other, unrelated website?
Screams bullshit.
