Aperture Science Sub Machine Gun - Developers

[QUOTE=morgul]I assume it uses the same technology as the Hunter Chopper from hl2 could have, you know the ability to drop a shit ton of bombs. That's why it dose not have a mag, the bullets are probably is some wherehouse just waiting to be fired.[/QUOTE] Portals.

[QUOTE=Tracekill]Hey, thundercunt, ever think about world model? [b]Edit:[/b] Best there is.[/QUOTE] The world model is going to be the folded up version.

This is freakin cool. I would go so great with a Portal Aperture Security soldier. Could somebody please make a ragdoll for a Portal Security Guard? Please!

[QUOTE=bobsagget]This is freakin cool. I would go so great with a Portal Aperture Security soldier. Could somebody please make a ragdoll for a Portal Security Guard? Please![/QUOTE] I was sketching some ideas for one during class, but it turned out to look like a turret with legs... it needs some work... :D

[QUOTE=ViralHatred]For those who say "where is the mag?" Portal turrets don't have magazines so why should this?[/QUOTE] Scientists don't have time to waste on magazines! :science: [spoiler]But apparently they have time to make weapons. Ah, the simplicity and fun of projectile science.[/spoiler]

(Image moved to first post) I don't know why my Gifs always turn out ugly

Rar or Zip the images and i'll have a go for you :)

That's extremely cool :D

[QUOTE=ViralHatred]Rar or Zip the images and i'll have a go for you :)[/QUOTE] I actually used a video

the biggest beef i have with it is that there is no trigger, and there is no cause of the unfolding action, but that is cool none the less. so turn the AS logo in to a button that collapse the gun and unfolds it.

The reload animation should have it unfold the bottom shell some and pull off a magazine similar to P90 style bar magazine, i think it'd fit the style real well. [b]Edit:[/b] Only instead of being like a P90 and reloading on the top, have it slide into a holder at the bottom.

That is a good idea, but i like the idea of a rechargeable, infinite ammo gun, like the Airboat gun

[QUOTE=ViralHatred]For those who say "where is the mag?" Portal turrets don't have magazines so why should this?[/QUOTE] Otherwise what the fuck will the reload animations be? The SMG can only hold 45 rounds.

[QUOTE=kfhammond]No reload animation, but the smg reload sound could be replaced with some sort of recharging sound[/QUOTE] Yeah, but you can only have a stock of 225 rounds, where would you find some Portal bullets in the Facility?

Pretty cool! Something is missing though. Gun sights?

[QUOTE=Frag_Out]Pretty cool! Something is missing though. Gun sights?[/QUOTE] I'm thinking about modeling some sort of lazer sight on to it.

[QUOTE=kfhammond]I'm thinking about modeling some sort of lazer sight on to it.[/QUOTE] Make a red laser like the turrets, and make secondary fire vaporise the user and the weapon :D

[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy]Make a red laser like the turrets, and make secondary fire vaporise the user and the weapon :D[/QUOTE] :O Of what use would that be?

Well, the red laser sight goes with the aperture science look, and gives it a sight. The vaporisation, well, I just thought that'd be funny, and aperture science seems to like pointlessly dangerous things, so yea.

Well the only use for self-vaporization I can see is to make sure no one that is not aurtherized to handle the weapon can not take it from somebody with the gun,that is dieing.

You said that the world model would be the folded-up version... at first I thoguht that sounds great, but bear in mind that lots of people will probably want to use the model in normal Half-Life 2 or Counterstrike Source. It would look pretty strange if enemies carrying the weapon had it folded up. So perhaps you could also release an unfolded world model? Personally I think it would be best as a pulse rifle replacement, as then it'll fire pulse shots just like the Aperture Laboratories sentry turrets. Red laser sight + pulse shots would make it a great hand-held version of the turret weaponry. As for the recharge sound - you could use the sniper rifle reload sound from Episode One and Episode Two, which is a charge-up sound. (Unlike the stupid bolt-action sound that was in original Half-Life 2. Whoever heard of a bolt-action energy weapon? Lol.)

[QUOTE=gatorboy2005]Yeah, but you can only have a stock of 225 rounds, where would you find some Portal bullets in the Facility?[/QUOTE] Replace the ammo with batteries? or have ammo boxes made to look like rechargers :P

Or don't use it to replace the SMG? Just have it as an SWEP.

Yeah if this were a pulse rifle replacement then the ammo would alreayd look pretty battery-like. Plus the pulse rifle view model's reload animation doesn't actually have the player inserting a new magazine, instead it is changing a chamber within the gun. So i guess it is assumed that the player has already inserted all 90 points of energy that can be carried into the gun, but the firing chamber can only handle 30 at a time. Or something. So a recharge sound effect would work fine. For a pulse rifle. For the normal SMG1 a lack of a reload animation would be a little strange. So I guess this is a miniture SMG-sized pulse rifle. SPG? Heh.

I don't like the stock, but everything else is cool.

This thing is fucking great! Gold star!

This is dope! Make it a swep :D
