Flamethrower Model

Ulatoh · March 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">COMMIN SOON!!!!</div> Ok... heres the deal, i made a model for the front of a flamethrower today at school (Vo-Tech) Using AutoCAD Inventor.... I cant export it as an SMD and its too big for floppy/ Email to my home comp... So tomorrow i will Post it, it is JUST HTE FRONT of the flamethrower, when its up, tell me what you think.

i can.

sheena_yanai · March 2003

me too.... but a flamethrower? for what? welder? the welder isnt that dangerous... hhmmm... lets talk about the psycholigic effect of dangerous looking weapon models for weak weapons... is such a "weak" weapon more deadly then before? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

aaahhhr hes welding my armor with an flamethrower! aaahhh!

WTH... i thougt theres a flamethrower comming for ns as a new weapon... is that update canceled? ive heard the flamethrower effect looks similar to the rtcw ft...or something like that..

Rasulis · March 2003

I say they neeed to put a new weapon in for marines and make it flame thower

they could use the umbra particle effect and project it out like it was a flame and it wouldn't look that bad and kick **** as a weapon.

Ya its more of a "Hey look at me, im learning modeling" than a real weapon model, Although, once i finally learn 3DSMAX i will probabbly have a flamethrower in the game to be modeling for, This is allso for if the NS team doesnt have a model yet, to give them ideas...

How bout a real welder, no I'm serious. if you look at <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=19&t=25923' target='_blank'>http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/in...ST&f=19&t=25923</a> then you see that im missing an AVP welder to stick in it, and it would be mighty nice if i could get that before i ship the beta off to my chosen testers.

WOW a white flamethrower on a white background I'm impressed <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

First, the image doesnt work and second it is a bitmap, compress it as jpg and put it up.
Third, he is a modeler, not a skinner. That's why it is white.

Supernorn · March 2003

and finally, there wont be a flamethrower in NS for like a year......2.0 people! its a long way away!

Ulatoh · March 2003

ok since im doing this from a comp that i dont have administrative privelidges on, the uploaded picture has a watermark...asdf....

Ulatoh · March 2003

\/\/\/\/\/

Ulatoh · March 2003

and another

Ulatoh · March 2003

yet another

Supernorn · March 2003

pretty cool...is that a drawing or a render? If its the latter, thats a hell of alot of Polys

Ulatoh · March 2003

Render, like i said, its done in AutoCAD Inventor, some pretty powerfull 3d modeling software, the problem is, i cant find any info on 3DSMAX, which i have at home,

( i cant even alter a shape) and the files are too big to email to my house or otherwise transport...

Yes, its alot of polys, i figure if i dont learn 3DSMAX before someone else makes the thing, they are free to the design, and if by some fluke i DO learn 3DSMAX soon, I willmake them myself, low polys, of course <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

you have alot of time to make a flamethrower model. As i said before, there will not be a flamethrower in Natural Selection until 2.0 , if ever.

BlackPanther · March 2003

I really don't see this as a flame thrower

Ulatoh · March 2003

It is only the "combustion assembly" or the front end, im still working on the fuel tanks and stock and such. BTW, anyone who wants to animate it for me should email me at

A good part of it isnt finished yet, but as soon as it is i'll wanna get it ready
mebbe someone from voogru could program it in and we could test it? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'> <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'> <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'> <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'> <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'> + <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif'> = <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

don't count on it.

That AutoCAD doesn't actually create a model so to speak... when it says "Model", it means "Reference". If modelling were that easy, we wouldn't need so many pros.

Edit: Also, what is the point of these stupid massive smiley battles? Stop it.

auto354 · March 2003

I think the flamethrower would be a great new weapon for the marines I also think it should burn the lerk's umbra away since there is only 1 practical weapon that can get through it and scare any lerk. The grenade launcher. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'>

Wile_E_Coyote · March 2003

Okay, I am nobody but I think you should have more than 2% of your model finished before you go touting it. Seriously.

"hey guys, look at this great Fade I made! Here's the left claw, I'm working on the rest. Looks scary, doesn't he?"

Ulatoh · March 2003

Ok, to all of you who felt the need to be mean and discouraging, the point of doing the first part was to get input on part of it before it was totally finished, so it could be edited, and as soon as its doen it could be released or whatever, allso, YES, AutoCAD Does make models, I could take that file to the machine shop down the road and they could make a REAL LIFE metal replica. and the smileys were cause i was bored.

When i posted this i thought you all would be mature enough to give constructive criticizim, like " it would be cool if there were *insert idea* here and it did whatever."

but all i get is a bunch of people who think they know what their talking about telling me it sucks,

Allso Surge, is it? Im curious what you know about AutoCAD, Im a certified draftsman who makes money using this software, and whether you know it or not, it IS used to make models for games, AutoCAD: Inventor and 3D Studio MAX are owned by the same company and their output files are compatible.

So I guess what i mean is " If you dont have something positive to add, dont reply"...

Thank you,
Ulatoh
