HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

As far as I remember, first person weapon models should sit at around 6000 faces max, and third person models should be sitting at about 1700. However, it's always a good idea to make your model as ridiculously high detail as you can, then make an optimised model. That way, you can create good bump-...

Haha, bang on, Philly! There's the whole legality issue, and the fact that we may also be using models that do not exist in any of the games thus far. We also want to include more detail in the models we use, so creating them ourselves will give a much better end result. T1xAnton, the modelling posi...

Yes, I hear you say - why ask for help with Crysis in a Halo board? Well, as you can tell from the title, it is, in fact a conversion to allow us to enjoy the great Universe of Halo in the Crysis engine. The team is currently sitting with nine members, but we are looking for anyone skilled in 3D mod...

Haha, I was in that topic on Bungie! I think it would be an awesome idea. Not particularly skilled, but I do have a simple (but accurate) model of the WSTE-M which I'm willing to give away.

I like the ideas, but I wouldn't say they were perfectly executed.

Trulife, that looks very good but I will have to be picky and say that his fingers are reflecting a little too much to be rubber/whatever the leathery stuff is? Other than that the armour looks pretty good.

One way to get the texturemaps is to extract the dxt files using HMT then use nvidia dds utilities to convert them to .bmp

I repeat myself I use the heightmaps rather than normalmaps for my models, but they tend to look a lot more pixelated compared to other people's models using normalmaps... is there any way I can fix this? Another problem I have is that I'd like to extract the 3D file for one of the Halo PC levels. H...

I use bumpmaps (heightmaps - not the in-game ones, I converted the normal maps) rather than normalmaps for my models, but they tend to look a lot more pixelated compared to other people's models using normalmaps... is there any way I can fix this without using normalmaps? I'm not sure if this is qui...

thats very good, but I think his hand looks a bit too smooth, maybe try adding a few wrinkles? That and all the other suggestions.

Its much better than my stuff so I shouldn't really talk but hey =P

Okay, sorry about that.

And as for my materials, well, I like them as they are Thanks anyway

You could try increasing the subdivision level? I'm no modeler, so if someone more experienced has a suggestion, go with theirs!

This is different to help with masterchief models! I'm trying to get the texture map for the longsword working, but so far, no luck. Its a model from Halo PC, and the map doesnt match up with the model. Is there an easy way to fix this?

There, thats the closer angle,I also changed the lighting, because this makes a nicer mood.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try that!

..Dramatic flaws?

My second one here. My master chief has gone through a lot of changes since the last one! Pity you cant really see it.

I can get you two exterior ones that look quite good, but I'm not certain about interior ones, i'll look for you.

EDIT
I have a whole host, but some are wierd. PM if you want any.

Well, heres the first render I've done properly:



Believe me when I say there are scorpions there... making them visible was harder than you know.

Well, I'm astounded by these renders, and I think I may have asked some people about this, but I'd like to do some renders too, but using the Halo 2 models, and my XBox isn't modded... can I please have some help with this?

Why do i never get ANY pointers??!!?! Gr. Maybe I complain too much.....
