Don't worry, I was not suggesting we change how the airboat handles. I was just curious if anyone wanted to lose their lunch like that one valve programmer :v:
[QUOTE=Snood_1990;42262894]Way too obtuse, you could just ride over the leech-infested waters and cut a load of the level out. I was thinking more of a little toy model of it somewhere in a house or one of the rebel bases.[/QUOTE]
I've actually tried that once, and I have to say... it doesn't work.
The leeches still eat you, no matter that you are above the water...

Leapin' leeches?
that would actually be kinda cool. Like, a boiling/ huge visible disruption on the surface of the water (along with squealing/ biting sounds) when you get close to it.

aw, always great to drop by and see good progress
[QUOTE=Marden;42262622]It's great but , please, make more space for the handle. Right now your hand would almost have to squeze in. I think moving the hadle a bit back could fix that.[/QUOTE]
Since I got more disagrees than agrees.

See how there's enough space for your hand/fingers? Compare it to the current model.

Looks like they just used the photo for most of the texture.
Looks like Valve got it backwards :v:
Imo it would be a lot easier (and probably look better overall) to just edit the current airboat model to be more detailed and hi-poly, rather than make one from scratch.
[QUOTE=HGrunt;42270219]Imo it would be a lot easier (and probably look better overall) to just edit the current airboat model to be more detailed and hi-poly, rather than make one from scratch.[/QUOTE]
IMO they should just do that with all models
[QUOTE=SirLemon;42270321]IMO they should just do that with all models[/QUOTE]
Yes, because turbosmooth fixes everthing amirite :v:
If we were going to add polygons to each and every model, then we might as well re uv map it because it will be broken to hell.
well he does kind of have a point though :v
there's plenty of meshes that will be difficult to remake [i]accurately[/i], namely main characters (alyx, kliener etc.)
there are ways to increase polycount without destroying the uvw map too, and why not save some time by upping the polycount on important models like the aforementioned ones?
Its done now?

Shouldn't the laser pointer have some kind of lense or focusing thingymajing? Also, put a hole in the front, why is it closed up?

Well we do have a character modeler for the main characters now, he'll be remodeling the bodies from scratch, and using the old heads as a base to build off of for a higher poly sculpt of them. All characters should in the end be a good 10-13k polies (which works perfectly on Source so long as you have LoDs built in).
If you're interested in what some of his work looks like, here's his latest model:

How does the trigger actually do anything? There's no wires going from the trigger to the launcher. Unless it's a wireless trigger, the cable running above it should divert down into the top of the trigger.

I may understand this, but may I ask? Why need a hole in a part that will never be seen in-game? if it's about the w-model, we can just make this part black in the textures. But if you say so, It's okay.
And about the grip, this's as far as I can go. Even the original model looks like this.

Well if you're planning on re-making all the models from scratch, is re-uv mapping really a big concern?

idc about cap or hole
as for the grip, all I'd do is skew it (move the bottom end of it back a little while keeping the top of the grip in place, going from '|' to '\') as per the original w_model, as that'll give the hand more room

also I suppose the only reason to get huffy about cap and hole is when NPCs and I suppose other players use it
it'd look fine as-is being held by a player and fine as-is lying on the ground
just depends how anal you want to get about seeing an NPC or another player fire a round and still have a cap on
imo, I wouldn't care, the cap would probably already be hard enough to see if its the same colour as the front cone anyway
[editline]23rd September 2013[/editline]
now someone has to model the missiles (launched and ammo), and it'll be a real enhancement to see the two actually remain consistent in sizing
oh, forgot to mention
