<div class="IPBDescription">Modeller/mesher.... skinner too?</div>
Tried to jig up some nice v weapons for the predator fade, but got stalled on the animation. Bones are in the wrong spot, anims aren't playing properly, and I just don't have the time to take the long way round and do it from scratch.
So I'm going to cheat.
I just need someone to tweak the Half Life hands on the existing predator v models - make them compatible with a hand sized skin so I can hunt for a skinner to skin on some predator style hands.
What I *had* been doing was replacing the HL hands with something else, and putting on a crappy skin of my own - but with the animation problems I'm having this is no longer feasible.
I realise a lot of people are busy with their own projects, so I'm not approaching anyone directly at the minute - I'm just asking for a volunteer before I systematically PM everyone with the requisite skills.
Hands can be seen here:

I'm in final desperation here, but thankfully once I can get this bit finished I can release the predfade (which looks sweet ingame so far, folks).

Been trying to finish for a while now, but totally defeated by a possible upcoming promotion and a small backlog of work due to delayed invoices from another company.
I know someone's bound to have a solution!
Well I've been banging my head off the monitor, I've come up with a cheap and cheerful fix.
However, I've hit a smaller snag - texture holes in the model because its essentially just an adapted v model from another game.... and the texture itself is b0rked when I put it down to HL standards.
Observe new piccy, you'll note the hands look SWEET tho half finished. This should be much MUCH easier, I think.......... I'm not a modeller remember!!
If you could fix the minor texture holes and help with the skin I'd be much obliged - I only have 4 days of milkshape left before I can't work on this anymore.
