As a student learning 3-D modeling, it would be extremely beneficial for me to closely look at a professional in game model to learn a plethora of information from it, such as poly count, line flow, multiple or single mesh, joints, even how its uv mapped and packaged just to name a few. This would help me improve my modeling skills and have some sort of bar set for myself for my own personal work. (dead space being one of my favorite visually appealing games) I do apologize if for some reason i offended you (even though you are not even working on this particular project yourself)

Isn't it kinda obvious? I'm not going to end up wasting my money for some program, learn something very easy, in which I have learned most the stuff for the ripper, I'm not going to waste my time doing something that's already being done. I have a permit test, and 2 exams to study for. I have more important things to do, than giving people what they want so badly.

Want some advice model the weapons yourself, look at another game that also has weapon types and go from there that way you get more satisfaction when you finish the model. As a games designer myself who specialises in 3d modeling I can give you this advice: * All weapon models I have encountered have always being seperate parts for each part of the weapon barrel, hammer, Trigger etc. * Poly count for most of the weapons I have seen from other games is roughly between 2000-3000 polys although 3000 is pushing it * UV mapping is different for every artist so it shouldn't matter what model you look at all you need to do is fill the UV map as much as you can. Also on the lines of packaging you, me or anyone on here has no access to EA's package programs so again this is pointless. Improving your skills as a modeler should be done by yourself learning and experimenting in whatever package you use it shouldn't come from looking at someone elses model and seeing how they put it together since where is the learning in that? anyway this is offtopic hope it helps on topic I'm gonna enjoy using these models.

[QUOTE=maggotmx;27821396]and thats why i was not asking you for help... isnt "that" obvious?[/QUOTE] You're right, you weren't asking any one for help. You were asking for a model of something you could get yourself. See? I just helped you with out you asking for my help.

Every artists seeks inspiration in different place. A painter could go to a museum and examine the work of the greats before him and learn from their techniques. It was never my intention to copy someone else's work, simply to compare and define certain ideas and work flows. i do however appreciate the pointers you have offered.

sooo any progress on the models?

What if I wanted to do some animating with that model and I have no idea how ripper works :v:

[QUOTE=Goldzfinger;27822948]sooo any progress on the models?[/QUOTE] its been like 2 days... wait about 3 weeks and ask again [editline]2nd February 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Novangel;27823083]What if I wanted to do some animating with that model and I have no idea how ripper works :v:[/QUOTE] then I would assume you have a bit of knowledge of decompiling and could animate the models that are already rigged when we release them

Okay, all of ya, shut up and new guy, just get out and wait for the shit to be released, then ask someone to give you the models. It isnt hard dude. Hell, i'll fucking do it if your so persistant.

What the hell going on here.

Everyone stop being a bunch of asses about this, if he want the model, then we answer it, since we're working on it, not you guys and telling someone to simply F off. Seriously, what so damn wrong about asking? really, stop being a bunch of Assholes. [QUOTE=maggotmx;27821066]Actually this bit of ignorance is completely uncalled for.

25 New Post oh great maybe the models are done Then I got here

[/QUOTE] He's right, there is no problem about asking something. But my answer is NO, I uploaded the model-files and that's enough.And maggotmx, I think everybody else here is right, you teacher should show you everything you need to learn. And so else, I'm uising Autodesk's Softimage, so I don't think you could do anything special with the meshes in other programs, sorry... [QUOTE=GMgregster;27821336]some other guy[/QUOTE] Aliensoldier...

I fell something called hope growing back from the darkness of my goddamm heart... WELL,puthing aside the poetic shit, you guys are doing a cool job, and i will wait if its necesary, thanks for not forgetting isaac

Am I only one or is there somebody else who also thinks that this is [url]http://img196.imageshack.us/i/stevex.png/[/url] Steve Papoutsis?

I mean, you can also notice some picture frame with the dev's family and friends around the maps.

Me and Hammond were gonna carve them pumpkin's with my Plasma Cutter after we got off the Valour. DAMN BRUTES!

Is this gonna be in the releases section!

you are all idiots

[QUOTE=Instant Mix;27853707]the texture please may I have it please why is that dumb? I want to make a reskin before the model is out[/QUOTE] Be patient, people got life beside working their arses off for dem models.

[QUOTE=The Combine;27859484]Be patient, people got life beside working their arses off for dem models.[/QUOTE] yes but it's a mere file send compared to the moving , rigging and compiling he has to do for the model.
