Spacemarine porting spree. - Developers

a goddamn video game introduction cinematic from 2004 looks better than the ultramarines movie so i might as well take that as an insult :v: nah jk

No it really does, GW didn't fund it enough and gave it to a studio that was used to making lego films. It was a market test to see if people would buy 40k films. [editline]15th September 2012[/editline] I was tempted to remake the film with the source film maker.

If you did, it would have been much better :3

[QUOTE=Joazzz;37663703]the DoW2 scout marines have capes a bit like that, we could use those (with some modifications of course) the helmet is impossible tho[/QUOTE] I believe one of the DLCs for retribution has a space marine model that resembles the marine holding the flag.

How much would it cost to get someone to rig these up for me? I can pay via paypal but I need to know the price beforehand :S

[QUOTE=Joazzz;37663703]the DoW2 scout marines have capes a bit like that, we could use those (with some modifications of course) the helmet is impossible tho[/QUOTE] Actually it isn't, as one is contained the DoW2 Ultrasmurf pack. Le Plume du Smurf: [IMG]http://pinoytutorial.com/techtorial/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/dawnofwar-2-ultramarines-1-1024x634.jpg[/IMG] You could probably just stick it on a newgen SM tac helmet after rescaling it.

I love this thread... So much 40k stuff. Everyone on this thread is awesome.... No.... EPIC. [editline]15th September 2012[/editline] *Idea Idea Idea* If you can export, hi res and rescale things from DLC packs, could you possibly get the robes from the Dark Angels pack [url]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8_FGnvrXMRI/TZXkgcYLoDI/AAAAAAAADBo/tqVSMvaIh1g/s1600/Untitled.png[/url] Hi res, rescale, and hex them onto some SM models rather than making a robe? And maybe exporting other stuff from the pack(winged helm, shoulder icons, Deathwing excessories, etc.)?

[QUOTE=Joazzz;37672898]that would be jolly good, but some other bloke has to port them first[/QUOTE] You could probably get Necrobard to do it, if you can get ahold of him. He seems to have dropped off the face of the forums for some reason or another.

Yea, you're right. He never replies or posts anything On his dow 2 thread anymore... Hm. Strange. [editline]15th September 2012[/editline] Joazzz, what's your Steam account name/gamer tag?

just Joazzz

Added :}

Another WIP update. Added a netrual completely gray marine. [URL]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6252145/misc ports/Ultra_update3.zip[/URL] No bodygroups or anything yet. It's this guy [t]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6252145/misc%20ports/gray_marine.jpg[/t]

The amount of freaking chapters I'm gonna create.

i assume the smoothing is better than in that screenshot? [QUOTE=wraithcat;37694361]No bodygroups or anything yet.[/QUOTE] THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE

[QUOTE=Joazzz;37697679]i assume the smoothing is better than in that screenshot? THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE[/QUOTE] I think that one's fairly obvious :P

This is probably a really... REALLY dumb question, but I'm asking only to make sure of this before I do anything.... In order to import/export stuff from, say, DoW2, you would need the game in order to do that, right?

Thank's you :D

Thanks :) [editline]19th September 2012[/editline] Joazzz, if you want, I could buy DoW2 Retribution and one of the DLC packs*coughdarkangelscough* for you via steam so you can port models from it(or so you can have a bloody good time playing it). You would have to wait a while though. Im saving up the month of October to pre-order the Halo 4: Limited Edition before it comes out in early November. This is an offer, though. You don't have to take it if you don't want to. It's up to you :)

i can't port models from DoW2, that's the problem and i tried the demo and didn't like the game itself anyway

Awhile back I was working on some death korps of krieg models, I didn't get very far and got bored with it, but I have all the DKOK Infantry out of DOW2 with bones and rigging intact if any of you want to pick up the project for me.

[QUOTE=Joazzz;37727916]i can't port models from DoW2, that's the problem[/QUOTE] Oh, nevermind then [QUOTE=Joazzz;37727916]and i tried the demo and didn't like the game itself anyway[/QUOTE] Unless you download good mods for the game, such as Warpstorm over Aurelia(beta)... Then it becomes quite fun... Atleast, that's my opinion.

[img]http://files.1337upload.net/spessmerens.png[/img] the outlined parts have bodygroups obviously gonna add a bit more stuff; the skull on the chest is a placeholder

I have a quick, lore friendly, and completely unrelated question: Is Space Marine armor shiney/metallic/glossy? I'm trying to make a full SM suit of armor, and when I look at models, fanmade art, and ingame pics for reference/ideas, they all look different(obviously). Just wondering if anyone may have a good source of info for this.

Here's an image of a Space Marine from the 5th Edition Rulebook, i.e. a GW publication, if you want some proof; [url]http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/images/0/01/Space_marines_deployments.jpg[/url] You can clearly see certain sections of the armour shining.

and some cover parts with leather (emp's children), some let theirs rot and turn it into biomass (death guard) etc

Ah. I see, then I guess I'll make it shine, since I'm doing Dark Angels.... I hope I'm not wrong on that ;_; [url]http://www.goodwp.com/large/201104/17015.jpg[/url]
