    Not bad - the reload animation is really unique!

    And for Pvt. Coleman:

    finally a gauss rifle. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    The reload animations looks a bit weird and there is no HA model...

    But after all very nice <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    well that was the best possible reload i could think of that worked, and no one else gave any feasable ones.
    and it needs some good sounds if someone would make those, and also the HA hands if someone will do that.

    sounds? use the SC ones... they are already out there somewhere <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    btw: for the reload-animation... I still think the lower "barrel" is the mag... and it's NOT a underslung nade launcher... Bizon style... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo--> that's it <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    The movie when they're in the trench? I always figured it was that missile turret behind him, you know the one that turned away when he looked behind him.

    hm... I read somewhere that the Bizon was the archetype for the Gauss Rifle (the magazin). but hm... I think I need to reinstall StarCraft and check that soon <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    hm... reload sound.. thats a problem <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    /edit: ah... that cutscene... yep, that was NOT from a rifle... that was the turret (or was it a goliath? I don't remember exactly... haven't played SC SP for years <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo--> )

    well in the trench movie i never saw a missle turret and the black guys bottom barrel is smoking, also in a movie in the original sc, not the expansion, there is a movie where some marines and a ghost are nuking a science vessel and all these hydralisks come in and a guy shoots a rocket out of the bottom barrel.

    there is a turret (i think a missile turret, could be a goliath) in the background, it's actually quite visible, and is facing the marine when he turns around.

    what? A Gauss Rifle?, and its finished?!?!?

    Personal opinion : Model is too "bulky". Skin looks like someones just got dodge/burn tools and gone made all over it. Animations are nice though.
  • douchebagatrondouchebagatron Custom member title Join Date: 2003-12-20 Member: 24581Members, Constellation, Reinforced - Shadow
    just watched the movie, and yes there is a missle turret in the back, but its waaaay back there. you can only see a silhouette of it. and the black guys bottom barrel is smoking, so even if the missles did come from that missle turret waay back there, the bottom barrel was smoking so it cant be a magazine.

    Because its not like the gun would get hot or anything like that... NO WAY!
  • douchebagatrondouchebagatron Custom member title Join Date: 2003-12-20 Member: 24581Members, Constellation, Reinforced - Shadow
    oh and i just noticed another turret over the guys shoulder when he is firing, and it is facing him when the first rocket flys past, but it is turned sideways when the second one fires.

    +btw: Does someone know where I can get the new animations for it that have been done ages ago? Now that it is released I want them on my model... but I couldn't find them <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    /edit: just found a pic of SC: Ghost... and... well... yep it has an extra mag...

    <img src='http://www.scraftghost.net/images/units/terran/marine.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' />

    but any chance to change the animation so that it is reloaded like any other "normal" rifle? not from the top to the down part (sorry for my English but I just can't explain it better <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> )

    Being reloaded from the top doesnt bother me, but the mag coming out at the end of the reload does....maybe someone could think up another way to reload the rifle?

    EDIT: Ok, just played some maps with it and the reload doesnt bother me AT ALL. The thing that do though have already been mentioned by Jaeger....

    panaka if you will look at the other thread i tossed up about that same picture, and i think it was coil who said that was not a gauss rifle or something. i sure do wish you people woulda given you input BEFORE it was released, it was started back in febuary ya know...

    /edit also those guns dont really look like the gauss rifle much at all, except it has 2 barrels. it has that handle lookin thing, and different textures, and the barrel is different.

    You must know little about photoshop then. Each of the skin .PSD files have about 20 layers and the only time I used burn or dodge was for the base shadowing for depth. It looks bulky because john doe gave it bad origins which I don't like myself. That screenshot makes it look terrible because of jpeg compression and his gamma/brightness. Don't post screenshots for other people's releases unless they okay it and especially don't post bad ones like that. That ticks me off.

    The reload animation is good, but could use some general repositioning. Draw the end of the gun closer to the body and don't slant it as much is all I can say; your valiant attempt to hide the end of the arm pretty much failed.

    The idle animation also needs some work. Here's an idea: Grab a broomstick, pipe, or whatever, and hold it in your hands. Try to simulate the current origins. Then, slowly, lower your arm to mimic the idle animation, paying close attention to how your shoulder bends and where your elbow is going.

    General concept is great, can't really say much other than work on the skin for the magazine well and the mag itself; I'm getting the impression that you have a mechanism on the inside of the weapon extracting the rounds as the magazine (which in this case would classify as a clip) as it falls through the bottom of the gun and into a helical repository in the back. Nice work.

    Seeing as most of the people who use the SC Marines as Heavy models, _hv arms are a must. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    <b>File:</b> Even if it were "hot", which by itself doesn't match with the concept of a gauss rifle as a "cool firing" device, the heat would be coming from the barrel of the weapon, not from a magazine. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I love it. Though yeah, it would be so much better with a reload animation.
  • Badly_bROWNEDBadly_bROWNED Join Date: 2004-03-15 Member: 27358Members
    The more I use it, the mroe I love it, the more I want a heavy model of it.....

    im proud of what ive done, and i think everyone else did a great job.

    thanks to all who helped.

    i know this is my first major model and it coulda been done better probably and if you feel the need to change someone on it, go ahead. but please ask permission before release.
