tarantula:gorge (or some kind of spitting spider if there is one)

jumping spider: skulk

some type of flying spider creation: lerk

black widow: fade

    I hate spiders >.<

    But a spider Skulk would be really neat.

    Want a big spider? How 'bout the Bird-Eating Spider. I seen them things. Dead...

    If I saw one alive, I'd have a freakin' heart attack.

    Dang and I thought I was the only one who still remembered Gloom. That game was mad awesome and I thought of it the first time I played Natural Selection. A spider conversion of the aliens would rock though.

    yea me and my friend (0xff) were just looking up diff spiders...and i saw that birdeater..and WOW...dont wanna see one of those in a dark ally...but anyways..i think this mod would be a nice treat to the ns community..i just dont know what to make for a lerk replacement..thats the only problem...unless someone comes up with mutant spider things and makes one that can fly...i think it would be pretty intense to see a spider coming down a dark hallway after a marine ...cause face it...spiders are just ewwy <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    The Onos would be... *shudder*... a camel spider.
  • NecrosisNecrosis The Loquacious Sage Join Date: 2003-08-03 Member: 18828Members, Constellation
    Tho considering the Arachnid animations are diabolical, I don't see much hope for the spiders.

    Unless people do some highly illegal stealing of work from the Eight Legged Freaks pack.

    ROFL

    I remember on time in the 7th grade in Science class that we had reading time or something was going on. But I was reading this National Geographic and then I turned a page and it showed a VERY upclose zoom of a spiders face where you could see it's 5871051 eyes and such. I immediattly freaked out shut the magazine and chucked it ALL the way across my class room.

    I sat in the very left 1st row and I chucked it all the way to the right of the class room..hahaha..everybody was looking at me and was like "wt-f." Then I said something around "It had a zoom up view of a spider on it."
    lol

    The all mighty Bird Eating goliath, perfect for the Onos!

    Or maybe even the mighty Gonarch, otherwise known as Big Momma!

    definitely worth a try

    how meny times to I have to tell you, THE GONARCH IS NOT A SPIDER ITS A GIANT HEADCRAB!!
    infact, no matter what it wouldnt be considered a spider cause it dosnt have 8 legs, spiders only have 8 legs, no more, no less!

    It doesn't really matter it would still look evil in this pack. But out of place, I believe trying to create the bird eater would be the best for an onos seeing as they have a span bigger than a dinner plate in real life, and one of the biggest spiders around.

    Muhaaa.....

    I think spiders would be a good idea for skulks, gorges and onos but lerks and fades are still kinda a problem unless you giv the spider wings and make them stand on 2 legs <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    lerks would be fine, because most of the time a lerk flys' low and not to the cieling unless under attack. so u could always add wings i mean its a game not a realistic game... but the fade would be the biggest problem because the fades hitboxes are a standing gordon freeman (so i hear) and spiders practically are on the ground so idk how u could model it <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    EDIT: Unless you just keep the fade the way it is, and add in more eyes and change the mouth to match a spiders with 2 little hands on either side to replace the spikes <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
