HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

Yah...I've never been here but you guys are a H2 community and might be able to help me. I've read up and around your forums and found a BUNCH of dead threads for this but since my rifle is a completely different mod, well I figured it deserves a new thread. I've been modeling the BR55 for a different game mod but with the right help, I could make it worthy of use and you guys possibly could use it. I'm also a first time modeler so it's quite the challenge for me. I come here for help from you guys since I hear good things about this forum: open community to new ideas, helps out, doesn't flame. My skin textures are really bad and I'd like some help if you'd like to dish it out.

I really hope you guys can help me any because really if you guys did help me it could help both our worlds.

Here's some pictures of my horribly skinned model undergoing custom animations :





It's got a wrong scope I know that but the mod I'm making this for wont be able to take the scope (half life) that was meant for H2 so I just threw something on there until I could really try for it. Right now I'm really just trying to work on the skin itself and I need some help with it. It's got smudges here and there for worn paint as "battle damage" I wanted to put scratches on it but after I did that it looked like it just came out of a rock slide Really if you can just help me with the skin itself I couldn't appreciate it more.

looks good, but i would like ot see some bottom angles without the arms

this is where my biggest issue comes, i dont have any programs to do that anymore (did everything on trial version of milkshape) and I really can't get another modeling program concidering i have 0 money in the wallet. I can give the model to those who can though.

what about the 3ds max trial?

what what what!
I looked for it and never found it
can you link me?

discreet.com? lol

thatamos, you've posted this everywhere! CDG, NS Forums, halomods, your forums!!! Maybe you should spend more time working, and less time advertising.

CDG gave me no real CC, all they said was that it was too blurry...real help there. NS Forums are down so no help there, halomods seem to be dead, and no one even visits my forums, and probably wont untill i get my ns server up. So I come here for CC knowing that this place is HUGE figuring I could get somewhere over here. And if you saw that last post, I didn't have any kind of modeling program and my photoshop cs trial is done, now i work on mspaint pro....wahoo....so I'd rather have some cc before i made any real changes.

Halomods forums arent practically dead! Many people post here! Why, Pie here Pms me within 3 minutes of my pm and pms me back at random and fast intervals! not everyone has time to check the forums constantly. Katarn I didn't know you visited so many forums o.O

i visit like 8 forums too, but this is my main, my homepage is google, and the direct address bar is set to files.halomods.com and then i have this area in my favorites so i check files real quick then come here.

I try to help people when i can lol

the guys at cdg are right, the skin is too blurry. The texture is too low res or it is blurry on the texture too, i'm not sure how to fix that. I think its too wide. If you sent me the maps i could add some scratches in photoshop, and try to unblurrify while i'm at it.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to put it on hold and then make an entirely new skin for it.
