Left-handed Models?

<div class="IPBDescription">do a chap a favor</div> Perhaps I'll gain the animating skills to do this eventually, but would anyone be able to make left-handed marine models? You could get away with mirroring some of them - the knife, for instance - but the LMG at least will have to be done new, since it is asymmetrical. Besides, a left-handed reload would be spiffy - he turns the gun on its side, yanks the clip out, and smacks another one down into the gun... sweet. (:

    I could do any of them that don't take reanitmating <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    q: My point is that not all of them can be mirrored. The LMG is not a symmetrical weapon. And actually, it requires no modelling at all... just reanimating with existing models.

    The problem with just mirroring it is that the animation files you're compiling the reference file with still think the model's on the right side, no?

    Coil, I think the other side of the LMG is not modelled so the person will have to add some stuff in. :o

    Edit: Oh wait, nevermind, it does.

    Surge is right. Faces on the unseen side are not present, which makes the only option a complete mirror, which still could require reanimating. Sorry.

    surely they were modelled, then had the backfaces deleted?

    maybe the team could do a lefties pack, without those backfaces gone <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Actually I just looked at the other side of the LMG. It DOES have a side there. :o

    That's all I have for now -- I'm just mirroring the guns, as I have no animating skill whatsoever. Feel free to take care of the pistol.
