My first "official" mod

[malumvolo]

This is my first publicly released mod, Im sure its nothing to get excited about, but I think its fun to play.















My favorite is the warthog, I call it the flying Wraithog, also there is the ghost and banshee, plus a few other changes like the frag grenade is a tiny active camo, an the plasma glows red.

This is basicly a mod I made to test what I have learned so far.

Ill explain the warthog...

I got rid of the wheels and suspension, and enlarged the model by 1.5

I changed the hlmt of the horn to a wraith, and made it shoot 3-5 gauss bullets. (edited the contrails)

I got rid of the wraith turret and wing things

then gave it the ability to fly (pretty much the first mod all newbs learn to do)


Youll notice the bitmap is screwy, thats cuz I enlarged the model of course, I havnt learned how to skin yet, but I like the way it looks. (kinda scrap metalish)
_________________________________________

The Ghost...

simply enlarged it by 1.5 and made it shoot weakened banshee bombs with red contrails.

Changed the color of the ghost boost contrails to a cool green-fading to orange

_____________________________________

Banshee...

I removed the rutters and the top half, I didnt get to changing the projectiles though.

Also changed the boost contrail to a cool teal-blue color

And thats about it.

Programs used:

DotHalo
Insolence
ADI

looks good for a first.... try to do like a theme next time and maybe a skin? Warhog looks great tho

[D4rkFire]

Listen to the guy above me and next time try skinning but good job for a first.

[malumvolo]

Yea, Im gonna skin in my next release. I just learned how to skin earlier today ^_^

Yes the skin kinda looks crappy on the hog, if you look closeley on the side, you can see the interior part of the bitmap.

*NOTE* I forgot to tell, I have only tested the ppf, I just made the sppf the minute before I uploaded it...just so ya know

Not bad for a first, I look forward to your future releases.

[malumvolo]

yea, next time Im gonna go with a theme, Ill make the vehicle contrails match, and Ill re-skin the vehicles (and enarge it so it works on the enlarged vehicles)

Also I need to fix the ghost's projectile, It does too much damage

Ill remove some random things like the active camo grenade.

Plus if I get good enough, Ill try to skin some of the map itself.

*EDIT* Ill also need to change the driver's side view on the warthog, the camera is too close to see anything

[JunkfoodMan]

I really like that Hog vehicle. GJ

[MrBalll]

I like the hog vehicle, it's pretty cool looking. You plan on doing a little bit more skinning in your next mod, like the actual map?

[MilyardoX2]

the hog looked wierd at first but after I stared at it for 2-3 minutes I finally got it, the hog is cool and the rest is ok, good job for a first.

[malumvolo]

Yup, this mod I released is pretty much a way of me testing all I learned, just yesterday, I figured out how to skin, so Im gonna try that.

Probably Ill skin the vehicles in the next release, and the map itself after that.

[x1OwNAnGe1x]

Dude this is hella good for a first Nice job man nice job

[malumvolo]

Im just about done with my first warthog skin (its real cool) and Ill post that, then ill make a skin of all the other vehicles, then once I get skinning completeley down...Ill update this mod.
