I agree. They look like metal toys in a way.

Looks pretty cool but reflections are a little too strong.

You need to give me a few lessons so i can get a little better.

Why is the rubber reflective?

maybe you could show something reflecting in the visor, and name it something like "Oh shit, here we go."

rubber is a bit too reflective in my opinion. and the shots look bad. but if its a wip then good job because that stuff is easy to fix.

what do you mean by bad? Any hints on making a proper bloom?

Darco · Post by **Darco** » Mon Mar 19, 2007 2:08 pm

use the blur effect in the environment settings. the shots just dont look realistic at all, like it was added in with ms paint. you should make some kind of bullets and put them coming out with motion blur, and for the "flash" use particles.

I'd just add a muzzle flash to the barrel (you could rip Halo 1's bitmap) and drop the bullets altogether. Bullets are only visible if you specifically fired a tracer round.

The bullet explosion needs more red and orange and the bullets don't look like there flying straight.

It looks as though he was dipped in a vat of oil, but I kind of like the effect.

Felt like making one of my own. Like it?

There's a multitude of geometry problems.
