Looks cool <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->. Should replace the lerk, since it appears to be able to achieve flight without flapping *cough*.

rOoKe

yea the lerk is kinda the only good choice lol

heres more:

any modellers out there that think they can do it?

MrBatman

It would be cool to have an entire Starship Troopers pack. Someone's already done the skulk as a bug, and the Morita...

Unknown

honestly, you could take that skulk bug and just strap wings on him.

the hackjob probably wouldn't be that hard (at least, not as hard as an entirely new SST hopper thingy).

not saying i could do it tho.. i'm so crappy at everything T-T

rOoKe

yea, thats what im basically looking for, so if anyone could do this hack job, that be great:

take the skulk bug model and change these things:

- remove the back half of the head
- attach abdomen lower body
- attach 2 hind jumping legs, similar to a grasshopper
- add wings
- add two antennae to the head, pointed up and out
- skin the entire model same texture with a green shine to it.


thats basically how you get a hopper from a warrior bug <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

anyone up for it?

rOoKe

so.... does anyone have time to make this model? im really anxious to get the SST set moving, cuz the only thing from it thats been made was the bug, and thats the only sst model that i have in the game, which is sad.

so someone please make this!

yeah, that'd kick ****! <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo-->

that flying hopper bug would give a perfect lerk replacement.. and it'd finally be scareh [that's what i dislike most, ns' aliens just dont look scary (besides fade maybe) <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> ]

Akalamanaia

Mr.Zero thats a picture from model from other game..and i dont know if SST model format is convertable..

Dr_Zer0

um, just get some1 with no life and a s*** load of programs, ask him to convert it and umm.. done <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

rOoKe

YES! we have followers! now we know the model is in demand, so please! modellers help!

theres two ways to make it. either just convert it from another game, which may be a little hard, or change the bug model, as stated in my previous post.

lets get this going!

look at the pics.. he's got 4 limbs and wings.. that'd take forever to do from scratch.
