She has, to my knowledge. Whether or not she's played is irrelevant, however, as she speaks truth.
We have three -- count 'em, 3 -- child models, two of which are complete shit, and the other is, while very detailed, of limited utility in comics, being very obviously Vietnamese.
If one wanted say, a European or Latin child, a reskin isn't quite going to do the trick.
Having an ordinary child in ordinary clothing presents a ragdoll of far greater utility.
As it's detailed and fairly generic, a few simple reskins can give us quite a nice variety.
Still not more useful than a warlord krogan, also:

[/URL]Thirdly, if people were so horny for a kid model, methinks it would have been done rather a long time ago. Game's been out since March exactly three people have requested it, minus agrees.
Requests don't necessarily mean porters want to do it, or necessarily that the porters have time to add it to their workload.
Also, you really ought to keep in mind how badly sarcasm translates to text.

You can port those models yourself, it's easy than making rig and FacePosing from scratch.

Hooray, child labor! :dance:
How I see it with models, they're just actors that can be reused for everything. Although this as been said about 10 times now but *shrug* w/e. It's better to have all the models for gmod though so we can remake the ending or even the entire game, give them a different purpose than being some stupid AI kid.

Which has absolutely nothing to do with it being requested, which you know better than I do, in fact.

Let's be realistic, there will be exactly about 7 uses of this publicly, three ME related "StarKid gets beat up pictures", four generic kid gets violated by monster scenebuilds/p-shops (hi urbanator), one or two legit kid doing legit or fantastic kid style things and one deviantart user getting permanently banned for using the model in tandem with digitalero assets.
I'm not saying don't do it by any stretch, but as far unreleased [B]Mass Effect[/B] models go, which is what this thread is kinda about, pretty sure starkid rates somewhere up there with "anatomically accurate naked Saren".
Anatomically accurate naked Saren could be a fun time. :v:
Anyway, I'm not going to continue arguing this; the last I'm going to say is that a human child will have more utility as a generic entity than a very specifically alien Krogan, unless you're willing to make the stretch of recreating their species and story for a comic or set of poses (which is far beyond what most are willing to do).
There's more to story and imagination than what you can come up with.
And besides, we already have a [I]huge[/I] pack of Krogan, unless you missed them?

Aren't you the same dude who just sat in the ME Discussion thread and whined about Bioware for months?
Because when I lurked that's all I remember you doing. That and you and DX_V were like the same person.

Default Textures are pretty muddy, think you'll be able to touch them up? I can imagine the Normals are also not amazing either.
Nice work, Floater!
If you can't touch up the textures a bit, definitely drop a detail texture on it.

Aheh, speaking of requests, about that Tali mask thing I asked about back on page 89....
Anyone still working on that? If what I am reading is correct, FloaterTWO has the model but just needed Haxxer's permission to release, which he then gave.
I don't mean to be a bother if it's too much work right now. Just looking for an update.
(I should also note that I have a friend who is off the wall with excitement over the Nyreen models)

Always? It's fairly new.
And yay, very nice facepaint Squiddy! you're awesome :)
I love what all of you are doing, I've never seen such a strong modding following before, I wish other Unreal Games I love (Gears, Bioshock, Borderlands) got this much love.
That being said, I have stuff to batch export tons of UDK files, anyone need help?

Urbanator is awesome, he'd not do anything like that. Anyways I was just thinking, is there any chance for the chestset prop? and is anyone working on the vorcha now that Korro's hdd frakked up? (perhaps Benezia too)

The top right one is how I imagine Solana Vakarian to look.
nice work on the femurians. But would be nice if someone edited the normal and diffuse to remove the scarring on the forehead.
Talon merc, of the turian kind.

Fantastic. Showed it to a friend and he suggests varying the eye color a bit if possible, but even with that he is looking forward to a release.
[QUOTE=wraithcat;38684603]nice work on the femurians. But would be nice if someone edited the normal and diffuse to remove the scarring on the forehead.[/QUOTE]
That wouldn't be difficult. In fact, I painted them back on after I'd cleaned up the original tattoos. I quite like how they look.
Not sure how I'm going to set these up in the end, though, as I'm still not sure how many variants for the bodies I will be making\including.
Knowing that will really settle quite how it will all work out.
One possibility may be that only certain tattoos will have unscarred faces, similarly to how I've two-toned only a few...
Agree if you guys think I should make only specific tattoos unscarred, disagree if you think that I should include a variant of each one to be skingrouped and unscarred.
Settling the setup should be very interesting either way.
[QUOTE=Spartanburger;38685050]Fantastic. Showed it to a friend and he suggests varying the eye color a bit if possible, but even with that he is looking forward to a release.[/QUOTE]
Don't worry, I will be giving them a variety of eyes as well as altering the actual skintone (rather than just the plates) on several to fit the theme and coloration of each tattoo.
