<div class="IPBDescription">Bringing your favorite gun to NS</div> Well I have been making this model for a while and put alot of time and effort into it. Sadly I have yet to be satisfied with this model myself as to the poor quality of details and scuffs and such. That's a result in this being my first model. It was originally created for the aug in Counter Strike but I decided that since this is a high-tech gun of the future, it would suit ns better. Though it is a very
satisfying (<<< is that word right? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ) as an aug, I felt people needed a good model for the lmg. Being a NS player myself I felt that since the Halo 1 Rifle was such a poor excuse of a model to even slightly show off the greatness of Halo, I have decided to take it upon myself to make a Halo 2 Rifle.
It's currently going through a retexturing through my friends Fireworks but I'd still like some help on the model itself.
I need an animator to fix my bloody animations because when I saved my Halo 2 Rifle model (file was a v_aug model) to my lmg using HLMV, the animations got all re-arranged (draw animation looks like fire1 and reload became draw etc etc.)
I also need someone who is experienced with making models very detailed. I can provide all the concept pictures you'll need from a player holding it (all these pictures will be taken off of Halo 2) and actual pictures of the gun on different angles.
I obviously can't do this on my own so I'm asking for help from the guys who are interested in bringing this idea to life.
For more details email me at www.strife0002@walla.com
You can also resort to MSN or AIM
My AIM sn is Thatamos0002
Please guys, I'd truely appreciate it if someone would lend me a hand becides my unexperienced self and unexperienced friends.

You kno, even a reskin with photoshop would be great, I would do it...if I had it...I did what I did so far with milkshape, hlmv, and ms pain :-/, shows you how low budget I am (btw the milkshape is the trail version)
<a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showforum=43' target='_blank'>http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/in...hp?showforum=43</a>
the video tutorials are really good

<a href='http://www.hl2modcentral.com/tutorial.php?id=23' target='_blank'>best one in my opinion</a>
I suggest reading the <a href='http://www.dosfx.com/tutorials/csgirl/default.asp' target='_blank'>CS Girl</a> tutorial to learn the basics of modelling in Milkshape. Modelling a player isn't the same as modelling a gun, but it covers a lot of the basics, like building a model from reference pics, meshing, skinning, and compiling models.
You might want to check out the Paint Shop Pro trial version as well, for creating skins. It's a lot more powerful than MS paint <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Thanks for the tips, there are many more updates yet to come (p and w models and a new scope lense) For a suitable player model I suggest you go to www.thrill2kill.com and get the halo model thats apparantly straight out of the xbox. It looks ok but im seeing if someone will fix its small glitches (hands, pelvis, butt, top and back of head, the back)
Go download The Gimp (<a href='http://www.gimp.org/' target='_blank'>gimp.org</a>, completely free image manipulation program) and compress them as jpeg's with about 75% quality, that should make even full screenshots under 100k.
Enjoy and now I shall get back to work for bout an hour then im off to bed, if you guys have any suggestions or requests to the model just PM me and I'll get to you ASAP <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' /><!--endemo-->
**Edited** lol, Just like me to forget to post the freaking image <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> **Edited**
Well here it is
Your scope seems bent up <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
The hand gripping the front of the gun seems rather wierd.
Other than that, good job.

Told you they sucked, I plan on fixing them next but I'm having issues so as of now I'm asking for help. Yes I've done the tutorials and crap but I just need some help from someone experienced that can just give me small tips. I'd like it if someone who wants this to go on to just help me out. PM me if you want to <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Yes it is left handed for now but I'd like to make a seperate model to make it right handed but I currently dont know how to do that. Someone up for it? Shouldn't be too hard.
The in-game look isn't that great since this is only the beta but I shall get you an in-game pic
And yes there are animations, just MSN me or PM me and I will give you the .smd
If you dont know what that is I'll just give you the model and you can view them on hlmv.
My animations that I've done are final but if you guys want to tweek them, have at it, if I like them i'll integrate them in and ye shall receive thanks in the credits <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
All effort to help me with this model will be credited.
You have my word on it.
List of changes expected to be made :
P and W models will be made
Scope lense will be replaced
I will force my friend that has fireworks to smooth out the edges to my rifle
I will continue to improve the detail on it (scruffs/marks like it would be in Halo 2)
I will also include that player model IF I get permission from the creator.
That player model is alsome btw, there's just some problems.
There are some meshing issues (I think that's the problem) on these spots :
Whole back of the head and neck
Top of the head
Hands
Pelvis
Butt
Back
Why a silver color!? GREEN IS THE WAY TO GO!!!
If anyone can re-skin this I'll include it in the Halo 2 Rifle release when I'm satisfied with it.
Those who help me in this also will be credited.
Oh and is there anyone out there that can make some hands/arms for this for the Halo lovers to have an authentic feel like non other while playing NS?
I'm having a problem though. I have a custom muzzleflash (green muzzleflash) and when I shoot the muzzleflahs is so freaking huge I can't even see 1/4 of my damn screen. Anyone wanna give ma few tips here?
BecauseI was given the X-Box mesh and skin to assign to the NS skeleton.
The basic Halo skin is that silver one. The game engine just makes it green.
