UV map and textures by me
Model by Sneeze/Doom
So far it's about 60 percent done. 30 percent later being "finished" and another 10 after that of tweaking, making the multipurpose for CE and specular, glow map and other shit for H2V.

anyway it looks :awesome:
For being remade from scratch, or even if it were being remoddeled, It looks completely badass and as HK365 said, abso-fucking-lutely beautiful!!!
yep, look at the new campaign pic from h3.Quote:

it looks realistic, like an actual gun. makes me wanna shoot some grunts
Really nice work both of you. I don't know why, but I really like the front panel nearest he muzzle. Are you going to use current MA5C anims, or are a new set on the cards?
i heard they were doing a new set of animations. (YAAAAAAAAAY)
We're using the h3 style animations on this one. We hav 5 sets of AR anims total.
Just one thing. PLEASE give it a strong firing sound. :gonk:
They said they were using the H3 sound or their own varient of it some sortQuote:

Not what I meant. Is it changed or not?
Yes, to the Halo 3 one.
alriiight h3 sounds
hey.. pic is broke >_<
Just beautiful
Just awesome. I love the look of the H3 assault rifle.
L33t, if your doing h3 anims, remember Halo 3 has its aimer slightly lower then center, so if your making the gun face that point, don't cause it'll look off. Make it that same height, just make the angle correct to where the aimer is on the screen.
Just fucking awesome............
Pretty cool. Looks just like the Halo 3 one.
Awesome.
Hey, Dano, did you ever get my PM about the spiker?
So is this only for H2V like the first post said? Or is this also goin into CE?
Its for CE too. Read the last few lines before he said H2V.
O oops, guess I skimmed through that too fast...
This looks very nice. I'm glad that you guys are spending more time making everything be of better quality, it really makes the postpone worth it.
Wow. Will the MA5K get this mouch love? Or the Battle Rifle... or the SMG?
Part One in a sequence of Scrutines and Precautions: Remember, Dane, these trenches along the side of the rifle are heatvents for the barrell.

UPDATE: Dano has gone AFK for a while. This means he is sleeping on his keyboard again. When he wakes up I will get the longest IM of random letters ever.
Be sure to post it in the quotes thread Masterz.
assault riffle has allways been my favourate halo weapon (shit'd me when it wasn't in h2 :maddowns: )
it is fucking awesome :awesome:
B. E. A. Utiful
gotta love the new skin, is that the final version for SPv2? if it is, it could use more color and could be more shiny.....=P
the multipurpose makes it shiny mister.Quote:

if i didnt have a girlfriend, i would be humping the computer screen right now.;)
is it just me or is the handle curvyer?
yea the handel looks kind of uncomfortable. but hey, i couldn't care less how the MC's hand feels, i care about how cool the guns look and how much it'll pwn
You might not care but the senior members probably will.
Though that handle really looks uncomfortable to use.
It looks like that hole next to the handle is not big enough for a thumb and knuckle to wrap around it.
The detail!............IT FUCKING BURNS!!!!!!!!!!!! :XD:
Is it just me, or has dano simply not applied smoothing groups to the model? :haw:Quote:

Click the first image for normal resolution.
Right click the second image and select "Save As" for high resolution.
Comparing to what? And the one on the left in the top pic makes me want to throw up. Looks like it has the same texture type as the earlier battle rifle used in older maps. Those guns and the AR on the left looks like they were molded out of crap. No offense to anyone... Personally, I would have been happy (extremely happy) if SPv2 just used the AR from the latest CMT multiplayer maps.
The top left one is Bungie's...
In fact, all the left ones are Bungie's.
Also, dull metal scratched up look, anyone? :eyesroll:
Well I guess your gonna be throwing up alot when playing Halo 3 Delta =D.
Though ounce again its not like were gonna be straight up to the TV looking at those textures.......And the fact that it was a beta......
Bungies h3 uses a 512 texture
:haw:
So in reason, If I pull this gun off as well as I do, this thing at 1024 res will quite awesome.
:awesome:
Also, thanks Dole, I can see some major differences in our screen. It also seems as though bungie has updated the ARs textures since the beta. I went off the new Halo 3 campaign pic, and it has more details in the bump map.
You know I'm gonna laugh if your texture beats Bungie's texture when H3 comes out....
Yeah, I was considering throwing that picture somewhere into one of the comparisons along with some select stills from Starry Night, but I stuck with what ended up going in just to maintain consistency in the angle and design... the continuity of the MA5C's silhouette has evolved continuously in the past few months, with the Starry Night iteration being almost completely unique on many different levels.Quote:

But seriously, I would have never guessed that pic was from the beta. Was it really that bad? I was looking at screenshots on bungie, and I was looking forward to getting those graphics onto my HDTV...
Remember. B-E-T-A
The graphics are probably gonna get an overhaul.....
Well, with a console, you are usualy a fair distance from the TV, so you don't notice the minor detail as much, so being at a higher res than 512 isn't an issue. Though, seeing as halo 1 was for xbox 1 and halo 3 is for Xbox 360, and uses the same res bitmaps is a bit odd.
The weapon's don't matter so much, but I REALLY thought the Halo 3 Chiefs bitmaps would have been at LEAST 1024. Seems there still at 512. :/ The chief looks...exactly like he does in Halo 2, judging from the new screenshots.....
I don't care what anyone else says, he looked ALOT better in the E3 06 teaser.
Also the AR is nearly finished. I passed out yesterday morning from lack of sleep, rofl. I'm working on it again now, should be all finished in a couple hours (still gotta uv ad skin the clip).
I pass out every other day from lack of sleep so I know how you feel =D.
Hmm I thought they would at least use a 1024 bitmaps for MC........take away the shininess of the entire thing and yah he would look like H2s chief.......
I think that's your bodys way of telling you to get some sleep instead of..
Sex from my girlfriend :downs:
anyway, speaking of sex

mine kthx
Just finishing off the Halo 2 Vista version, wich is pretty much non dynamicaly shaded. All the CE one is, is just fake bumps, shadowing and fake glow from the lights, wich will take a whole 60 seconds to do once I've finished the texture.
also shit, while typing this I just remembered I've still gotta do the clip /roflowned
anyway, hows look? What needs fixing IYO
Nice! I really love the skin. And I can't wait to use it in SPv2:awesome:
:awesome:
That is all.
the lack of a trigger still amuses me. :)
finish it already ffs...i wanna see shiny shaders and ingame shots and shit! grwagrh.
Well its obvious you simply squeeze the handle to fire it. :v
what? It has a trigger.......
oh wait thats right you gaiz can't see it loal.
*edit*
http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/1...rsofar4lq0.jpg
:)
Good to have a side view, and it still looks awesome! Keep up the good work Dano. :)
Hurry up and finish the sexiness Dano. I want to see that sucker ingame.
SO I woz makin' a spec map and rite:
http://img413.imageshack.us/img413/7...render1pb3.jpg
http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/4...render2ca1.jpg
I suck at renders so yeah, lightings fucked up. Also smoothing is still fucked up :3
Oh hai, hump mb. Btw, is that bump map baked into it or is it a seperate normal? What I thought you'd do is make a normal anyway (for future use? :X) and just bake that on. Anyway, it looks great now that it has specular.
[edit] Wth, it actually LET ME give you rep?
FUCK, I can't rep you! You brilliant bastard, you absolutely NAILED IT! GORGEOUS!
Just don't skip over this little Note Bene I left a few pages ago. ;)
No that bump is not baked in. The CE version will be baked, the H2V won't be. :P
I'd render the illum map too, but I dunno how :(
Also, yes Dole, I know some things are a bit off, I know the screen is curved at the bottom, but I'm no modeller so I dunno how to fix it. Theres a ring around the screen area, with an indent and that area is a plane colour, not a dark grey, also a part closest to the camera is actualy modelled in, not bumped in. I don't mind though, really. That grating thing over the holes in hte H3 AD AR, I can do in a jiffy, really it's just a a thin covering over the holes, mb a couple of polys and just an alpha channell'd texture. It's not on the Halo 3 AR at the moment, but I coudln't give a fuck, it looks much cooler.
The things WILL get fixed though, don't sweat it. I want this AR to be like THE Custom made H3 AR of Halo 2 Vista. I want people to be like "yeah, your AR isn't as good as Danos" or "Danos is better" or "meh you can try but danos will still be better" or "what the fuck you total fucktard, thats danos don't steal it fag" and so on and so forth.
/lolscarcasm mb
or mb not
I just want it to be kick fuckin' ass, so I promise I won't cheap it out on yas.
btw, everybody, I like to edit :downs:
Damn. I'm this close to worshiping you as though you were a god.
The only thing that bothers me is that green button in FP veiw. Its just so.....odd......
purdy flippin good.
i like the curved handle, it looks neat, even if it isnt totally accurate with the most modern pic's (might be, idk).
im excited about the sounds for it. i really really liked the halo 3 beta sounds, and the v2 multiplayer sounds werent bad, but they just didnt have the punch of the beta sounds.
i also like the smooth cuves on the front of the gun's profile, really give it some identity.
Actually, I was just talking about the heatshield. :oQuote:

Also, Archon, that button is fine.
also, Dole *drumroll* do you have AIM or xfire? D:
Preferably xfire, because AIM is a faggot and I hate it.
been meaning to add you for a while :3
Where the trigger is, it's way too small a space to fit a fully gloved spartan trigger finger. I don't think it matter's though, since no one's going to notice in game...
that fp view... its so closehttp://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z...photo/h3ar.jpg
It's cause he's holding it against his shoulder. You generally do that while carrying a rifle. :haw:
no no no i meant danos was a close match to the halo 3 one. lol
Oh, well be specific next time.
Also:

:wtc:
Uh ohs, a non planar face! Should not be hard to fix, just move a vertex or 2... unless what you are saying is something I am not comprehending, and I don't know what the fuck I am talking about. D:
Just weld the 2 verticies, plane and simple.
Its hot! It makes me want to spend 3 hours dling spv2! Can we get a fp?
Lol, the first one took me 2 hours at 120 kps/s, since filefront is retarded, but unexpectantly fast sometimes...
He already posted an fp... go look back at his post. Hold on, I will just find the link.Quote:

Dear Dano,
Have my babies :)
Looks like Bungie's got competition.
Dano, are you sure you dont work for Bungie, or some other game designer? You really should think about it. That ar is 1337. The amount of effort you put into something as detailed as that. I cant even imagine how to start doing something like that, but you did a great job!
Revord
revord is right you should look into it
I noticed alot, but I witheld pointing them out because it looks like you donate too much time to this and not enough to yourself as it is... not to mention the last time I went to town on scrutinizing Sneeze, my obsessive-compulsions were probably driving him up a wall. :-/Quote:

I hope so. >.>;
dano, if you were a woman id ask you to take my virginity.
:iia:
Looks beautiful.

So, this is going to be included in SPv2 and Halo 2, right? I just want to make sure.
and possibly in my upcoming mod. thank ye doom.:lol:
They didn't really need too, though, I think they should have. They're definately more than capable of doing so.Quote:

I'm not a natzi with my work, I just don't like giving it out to people I don't know and people who are total randoms and I know they're going to make a shitty box map and make my work look like crap.
Uh......Im going with Dano here.........umm, what?Quote:

and just to make u happy ill take off the "skinner" part from my title, geez.
