its something like 64,000 polies with meshsmooth on so its NOT for NS. tell me what u think, and BTW; ignore the crappy leg bottoms. They have a few problems ill fix later.

Nice renders.

The design is a little meh. The legs are too close to the frame, so they have no room to move. This thing could never walk.

Though I forgot to turn up the meshsmooth level on the feet for this particular render.

Carry a GEP gun around. They won't be annoying for long.

Ah DX... always forcing you to make decisions like "Do I forfeit my legs, or just let the damn thing follow me around for the rest of the map"

CaptainChet

woah did u use the tutorial from 3d world magazine? the one imported from Britain.

sheena_yanai

faceerrors on the legs... looks like vertice mumbojumbo.. when you cross faces this happens some time. you should optimize your mesh to avoid crossings, or just invert the normals on the faces that are black..

Frankly I'd be happy if I could just work out how to get mine walking convincingly. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Chet - yes, that's the tutorial I used. And a very useful one it was too - I've already made a bunch more stuff following that method.

CaptainChet

thx for the advice sheena, im fixing them right now. and maus: the mag rocko0rs, too bad it costs 14 bucks where i live as it has to be imported from England.

BAshh

IRT maus. Thats cool but could you upload a pic of yours? your deviant art link isnt workin for me

CaptainChet

Sweet Jesus I'd hate to have that staring at me in-game. Creepy and AWESOME!

Tears the litlle buggers apart. For the big buggers, run like hell & fire at a distance.
