Half-Life 2: Enhancement Mod *Looking for Modelers*!!!! - Developers

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/CNWZW.png[/IMG] [B]Half-Life 2: Enhancement mod, is dedicated to making HL2 look the best it can, while adding a few new gameplay additions to freshen up the experience.[/B] The Half-Life 2: Enhancement mod is remaking all levels and textures of HL2, and designing it to run on the Alien Swarm engine. Also adding new, high poly versions of the character models. We currently have 4 modelers on the team: [I]Zero Hour, Nomad, Voltlight, and Tinter[/I]. They are all weapon/man-made modelers, and are making the new high-poly weapon models, and the new HEV arms: [img_thumb]https://trello-attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/50983eca5760ec391c001f65/50a7ebf100adb08759006831/bb971afb6fafba133de9c7a8abcaefac/USP_Match.png[/img_thumb][img_thumb]https://trello-attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/50983eca5760ec391c001f65/509ab45968a14cd617000e97/7a5db56e880d1472a7bbc117260c928d/qWgMj.png[/img_thumb][img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/Dgm4c.png[/img_thumb][img_thumb]http://i50.tinypic.com/27yydtu.jpg[/img_thumb] [B]What we desperately need now are people to do the character models! If you, or anyone you know can do character/alien models, and would like to help with this mod, please I urge you to post below or contact me through steam![/B] The types of models we'd need would be: High-Poly replicas of the original HL2 characters (at least of the main characters and enemies), and High-Poly models for 2 new enemies we're adding- Houndeyes and Bullsquids. Some models are going to look different than their originals however, for example, the Headcrabs and Headcrab Zombies are going to look more like the Gaming Heads statue, and the WIP Houndeye design below: [img_thumb]https://www.gamingheads.com/images/stories/products/HLHCZX/vertical_01.jpg[/img_thumb][img_thumb]https://www.gamingheads.com/images/stories/products/HLHCZX/vertical_05.jpg[/img_thumb][img_thumb]https://www.gamingheads.com/images/stories/products/HLHCZX/horizontal_08.jpg[/img_thumb][img_thumb]https://www.gamingheads.com/images/stories/products/HLHCZX/horizontal_01.jpg[/img_thumb][img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/jw9qd.png[/img_thumb] [B][I]For more information on the mod, check out the main thread:[/I][/B] [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1236615[/url] [B][U]**Please do not post about DP's Metro Cop pack, I am not going to use it**[/U][/B]

I have one small question: Are you aware of [URL=http://cinematicmod.com/index.php]this?[/URL]

[QUOTE=Aleal;39144896]I have one small question: Are you aware of [URL=http://cinematicmod.com/index.php]this?[/URL][/QUOTE] Are you aware of what kind of shit that mod is?

[QUOTE=Aleal;39144896]I have one small question: Are you aware of [URL=http://cinematicmod.com/index.php]this?[/URL][/QUOTE] Yes I am aware of Cinematic Mod, that's actually one of the reasons I started this mod, because I wanted to have a high quality HL2 mod that didn't make the characters look like shit, or add all that post processing crap that makes CM look so atrocious. Our aim is to make HL2 look better, putting new life into it, while keeping to the general look and feel of the original, without ruining the experience.

I've never made humans/aliens before or anything organic. But i can help modelling props and such after my midterms are done. as long as it doesn't require animation. I can also do the uvw unwrap and texturing for them. So yeah i not be able to contribute allot but i'm saying it just in case you need me to. E: So yeah i would't mind making/remaking maps also.

[QUOTE=Mattey;39144977]Are you aware of what kind of shit that mod is?[/QUOTE] Yes, I am. I was just curious.

Anyone who can help? Anyone?

I'm currently messing around with the blue barrel model in 3ds Max, I'll get back to you if anything good comes out of it.

Hey guys, I saw your concept for your Houndeye and it inspired me to model my own, hopefully for your use. I took inspiration from various different sources so it's not perfectly accurate to your concept but here's what I have at the moment, taken from Marmoset: The texture is currently a work in progress (I'm not really a texture guy but I've been trying my best). The eyes and the blue stripes have had the least attention and it shows, pretty much just threw them in [IMG]http://www.abload.de/img/05properghp5g.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.abload.de/img/02properkfpu2.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://www.abload.de/img/01properqspb7.png[/IMG]

[QUOTE=-HollywooD-;39200483]-Houndeye Awesomeness-[/QUOTE] Whoa, that looks really awesome! Fantastic job there! A few things I would tweak/change though: Beef up the back leg, they're suppossed to be able to stand on it, and look around (almost like a one-legged Meerkat/prairie dog), Make the skin more green (if you want, PM me the skin template and I'll make one up for it), Darken the skin round the eyes a bit, give it some toes, and move its back leg under it a bit- here's an edit of the side picture to show a what I mean. [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/Nfdob.png[/img_thumb] Mind you, not [I]exactly[/I] like that, but it gets the gist along. I just think having the leg a bit under it looks more natural and pleasing to the eye. [editline]2013[/editline] With the leg like in the picture there, it'd probably be good to change the stance, make it lean back a bit more on it's back leg.

[img]http://imageshack.us/a/img215/5576/hdcitizien.jpg[/img] I was in the process of making a 'HD citizen' ages back if that's at all useful?

If I have some free time, I might try to tackle the guns and stuff; the pictures shown in the OP are kinda... bleh. This certainly sounds like an interesting project!

Apologies for the late reply, I was only able to get to it today. So far all I've done is just a quick change to the leg and an overall change of pose, let me know if this is more to your liking (Could still maybe use some beefing up, not sure): I'll start working on the rest of the changes.

I like the color scheme a lot better now, looks more fleshy and natural (or as natural as an alien can be). Though something's bugging me about the front legs. Here, I edited the picture with a slightly modified back leg, and some new front legs. [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/Ai8mfWZ.png[/img_thumb]

I'll be getting back to work on finishing the SPAS-12 in a few days, got sidetracked. That Houndeye looks awesome.

Hello I suggest that maybe you could use these HD combine to replace normal Combine In your mod [url]http://www.gamefront.com/files/20043330/Enhanced_Combine_7z[/url] [url]http://www.gamefront.com/files/22892366/Missing+Info+Combine+replace+HL2+Combine.rar[/url]

[QUOTE=lxmach1;39383810]you should supply screenshots and normal links, not download links. goodness knows what content could possibly come from those :v:[/QUOTE] Well they're basically just HD Combine Soldiers: the Enhanced Combine is BlooCobalt's Combine & the Missing Info Combine is the Missing Information Combines model, made to replace HL2 Soldiers

Can you upload some pictures of them? I'm looking for models, or modelers who can do/have done L4D/CS:GO/Portal 2-quality models.

This is freaking awesome :O....

I'm doing some work for another mod. I'm a pretty decent weapons modeller. I'm new at modelling self taught, but may be able to provide assistance. Here's some of my previous work. I have DESCRIPTIONS BETWEEN every PICTURE, and I apologize for how big they are: Here's concept art for the previous version of the Pulse Rifle AR-2--the Combine AR-1 [IMG]http://i46.tinypic.com/2m7elox.jpg[/IMG] Here's a pic of the finished weapon: [IMG]http://i45.tinypic.com/2daisr8.jpg[/IMG] Here's concept art for a Combine Synth I designed--the Combine Leviathan. Supposed to be a BACKGROUND ELEMENT and the Combine equivalent of a frigate or small cruiser: [IMG]http://i48.tinypic.com/fyiqls.jpg[/IMG] Finished Leviathan--remember it is a background element, so it's not as detailed: [IMG]http://i48.tinypic.com/2py7sj7.jpg[/IMG] HD Re-model of Combine Sniper Rifle (no texture): [IMG]http://i48.tinypic.com/122ewj9.jpg[/IMG] And last but least, a video of a bull-pup rifle I designed. Just skip to 1:12 if you wanna see it animated and done: [video=youtube;lkJyksiHhWo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkJyksiHhWo[/video] If my work isn't promising enough, I can at least be a concept artist for you guys. I am a very enthusiastic artist and quite enjoy doing this stuff--I'm actually hoping to work for a game studio someday. Please let me know if you'll accept my help. Thank you! [editline]31st January 2013[/editline] I'm sorry, I had just read that you're looking for a character modeller. I hope you at least enjoyed my work.

[QUOTE=k4rl;39431132]Pure awesomeness[/QUOTE] Whoa....I'm speechless! If you want on- you're on, you're on! Those are some truly awesome models! We actually do need a lot of the guns done still, so if you want to do those that would be really great! Send me an invite on steam if you want to talk more. :)

You got it :)

Sooo, any character modelers want to help? We have one now, but it's a lot to do for one person.
