I know this is probably quite difficult to achieve, but you could have all the weapons get dirtier as the game progresses.
They could use the same technique Black Mesa used for the blood, with dirt/scratch of course.

Black Mesa spoiled me with grabbable dead headcrabs. Now whenever I play another game and kill a headcrab and I try to throw it off a bridge or something, I'm met with disappointment in my inability to do so.

IMO that looked like total ass, your guns would be almost permanently covered in this horribly stretched yellow shit

Programmers, get on this. This needs to be a feature now
[QUOTE=Garrison;40564418]You guys need to understand that sometimes it's not all about super realism sometimes a dirty texture just makes a little more sense. Think about it
In HL2 even the combine's gear isn't clean. The water is muddy and dirty. Nothing is going to look good. I'm not saying everything is dirt and grunge, but
This isn't HL2: Clean. Freeman drags his weapons through hell and back so in my opinion it only makes sense.[/QUOTE]
In HL2 and Episode 1 the Combine were originally clean. Shotgunners also had a different model.
Since the OB update now they're dirty because they were made dirty in EP2 since they were running through the Outlands.
So will you guys be making idle animations for weapons HL1 style?
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;40567683]Does this mean no shiny metal front half?[/QUOTE]
I don't think it was really meant to be a shiny metal front half. It was only ever like that on the world model for the SMG1, and it always looked like they just messed up the specular and cubemaps. I could make it metallic if enough people want me to though.

Hey corgi, I posted this header a while ago in the logo thread, could you at least consider it?[/QUOTE]
The blur on the image behind the text might be a bit overdone. Also the shadow might be too large. You can always use an outer glow.
[IMG]http://i4.minus.com/ibq6vyXV6RxK0R.png[/IMG] (still not there though!)
Though I'd probably use another background instead of that one.
I like it though. It fits better than my bland text :v: (I focused more on the icon itself though)

Anyway, I think I'm done with the poster template. I'm not sure where to place Freeman's flying head but at least the poster should be readable.

I'd like to have that with blood, probably just with the crowbar though. But make it more like the stuff in L4D2, the stuff in black mesa looks like big chunky horribly masked blobs of shit.

I think you can now stop obsessing over the SMG and move on to something else
Is anyone working on the Spas 12 or the AR2?
[QUOTE=Juniez;40562742]sorry friends it looks like it'll never see the light of day
rip in peace model ;.;[/QUOTE]
though your post is around 2 pages back, and everyones possibly done talking about the smg1, why doesn't your gun get released as an optional skin along with kwants?
it seemed that there was around as much people who wanted juniez's model.
[QUOTE=The Vman;40573640]Is anyone working on the Spas 12 or the AR2?[/QUOTE]
Very very slowly doing the AR2.

I really hope you do, it'd be a real shame if you don't. It feels too MP7'ish and not original enough as it is imo.

Like all weapons, we tend to do use the viewmodel as a base not the worldmodel. If we were to do that everything would look rather bad. The two tones is really unnecesary, since the worldmodel for the smg is literally one of the worst models in the game, texture and model wise.
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;40575032]I really hope you do, it'd be a real shame if you don't. It feels too MP7'ish and not original enough as it is imo.[/QUOTE]
My plan is to go by the original model, most of all the view model, because those are always better than the world models.

The front end of this does not look metallic in [I]any[/I] way at all. If you're looking at the world model, then like I said-

as the way the texture is done even on the world model it doesn't look metallic, it's just the cube map that was probably messed up that's being put over it makes it look metallic.

I realise you used the viewmodel, and I'm okay with that. But you also used the MP7 as a base for the texture, so it looks very MP7ish, moreso than the viewmodel.
I think the metallic look on the world model is nice. Besides, bugs aren't always a bad thing, the Helicopter Boss in HL2 was originally a bug, so was the Dumpster Zombie in EP2 (it was a dumpster full of boxes, but a phys bug caused them to spas out, and playtesters would think something was in there and throw a grenade into it).
[QUOTE=RaTcHeT302;40528724]We must go backwards, make every texture 128x128. Every in-game model should look like a low poly model from a PS1 videogame and the soundtrack is composed by using NES sounds :v:[/QUOTE]
HL2 on PS1.
I would actually play that. :v:
Anyways, wish I could help, but I suck at modeling and texturing, and all that stuff. But this mod looks great! Great job so far!
Please make this happen:

[QUOTE=Ereunity;40576195]Don't Antlion workers already play that animation ingame?[/QUOTE]
Just the stab, not the toss.
I can't believe it took me so long to realize this existed...This is awesome!
Regarding the AR2, I had an idea. The ammo drum that holds the three "charges" looks like it's meant to detatch. You could make it possible to carry multiple drums and change them when the charges run out. That's give a purpose to the world reload animation, but it might be a bigger core change than you guys want to make. This may have already been mentioned but I didnt see it
Perhaps remove the drum then play the default reload animation, but faster so that it isn't stupidly long?
its long?
No, i'm saying that coupled with the drum reload, theoretically it'd be long. Just shorten it a bit.
The AR2 is going to be 2-handed, right?
[QUOTE=DatWut?;40580335]The AR2 is going to be 2-handed, right?[/QUOTE]
I hope so. Firing a big gun with one hand should be hard enough for any man.
