Could you make the gun darker though?
Like shiny black?

Forgive me if the gauss rifle at the pics isnt black and LOOKS black because of the shadows, I just like it that dark.

Yes I can, and will.

Looks so much better now.

ctx

Gettin' there.

ctx

Is something like this dark enough, Zaggy?

Sudzz

Hmm.. that seems a bit too dark to me, but I'll wait for some other comments.

ctx

The regular version is the lighter one above, I'm just making this darker black one for Zaggy.

Restrik

Doesn't look center...and didn't someone make a set of SC marine hands?

Chrono

i like that dark one it looks like black chrome which is sweet

douchebagatron

the darker version looks real good, except towards the back where it seems too dark.

Hopefully we can find those because I plan on making several versions of this.

Also, what do you mean by center?

douchebagatron

i posted a thread about sc hands and one guy said he would make some, then i never heard from him. ill go get the thread for everyone to see.

/edit <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=61338&hl=sc+hands' target='_blank'>here it is</a>

it just looks like the gun muzzle isn't where the crossahair would be...not like iron sights...but w/ most guns the muzzle of the gun looks as if the bullets would go to where you have the crosshair...

this looks more like the bullets after leaving the gun would go to the right (b/c the muzzle looks too far to the left)

ctx

i want to change the origins and 2 animations...but I think it's 6john6doe6's call to say whether its okay that I do that or not.

douchebagatron

i think the origins got changed somewhere in the decompiling/compiling since i gave it to cookie, because when i gave it to cookie the gun was much further up.

/edit u posted as i was posting. what animations do you want to change?

ctx

The fire animation looks okay in HLMV, but when your firing in-game, the gun bobs up and down very quickly and doesn't look right. I was thinking we could make it kick back a little rather than up. Also, the reload animation should be redone because the arms clip and also get in the way of your view, I think it would be better if the guy took the clip out of the bottom, and put another into the bottom rather than the clip going through the top.

coil

I like the darker skin; the other looks a little too much like stainless steel, which isn't really a good gun material. Tone down the highlights slightly on the other and it'll be really nice.

ctx

I thought that 'black' one was just a tad <b>too</b> dark, so I made it more in between. How's this?

<!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--> It looks great!

CoolCookieCooks

Very nice ctx! The skin just needs a change imho
although this mp5 isnt the same as a gaussrifle, I like the skin.

Its a VERY good skin, and I don't expect the same amount of detail.

weird HLMV pic taken by me to show an ingame like view:

Azrael2709

In starcraft the i doubt the marines would EVER use a metal gun. I would try making that black plastic looking. Right now being dark and shiny it looks like someone spilled oil all over it. Great job so far anyways!

i wasnt blaming you, but with all the crazy stuff that happend to me while i was modelling/compiling/decompiling after accidently deleting the ref file/recompiling the animation got totally messed up, and the origin got messed up a few times. i dont know or care what happend but it looks good now! good work!

ctx

I already re-did the skin...now you want me to do it again? Come on <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

That goes for the both of you...the Gauss Rifle isn't an mp5...so why are you trying to have me put someone elses skin on a model completely different.

Sudzz

I like it how it is now. Stop giving him a hard time guys. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

douchebagatron

i like it the way it is.

mp5 = done, if you want it, go get the mp5.

plastic = SKULK *BAM BAM BAM* AHHH GUN MELTING! then you just have to throw bullets.

throw bullets = now theres an idea.

Zaggy

Just like Azrael2709 says, the guns looks too shiny/oily, and I gave the mp5 as an example of how things looks better...I didnt want you to put that skin on top of a gaussrifle <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->, just make it less oily..

douchebagatron

i dont think it looks oily at all.

ctx

I have no idea how you came up with 'oily'.

Looks fine to me. That MP5 is alot of plastic not all metal.
