You could have a boat

...... who am I kidding thats one thing thats gonna be in it, I am gonna skin the bridge and do some other new stuff.
I got big plans even though I may be in over my head but its still cool to dream.

Did somebody say...boat?

Just a little something I was working on a while back,
although, I never got a chance to finish it.
Someday...mb.

TBZ, i love that boat

Hox do you make it float? or is a that a flying warthog?

my guess would be that it flies but has two banshee barriers pusing on it, thus keeping it level on the surface. But how to keep it from sinking when you get out?

i was talking to him about that a while ago and we managed to come up with a way of doing it if i recalled correctly

If it were me doing it (Yeah, I planned a big water war mod a while back), I was going to have "docks" where you could park your boats. The BSP I was going to do it on already had little "fingers" extending into the water (when I add water) that looked just like docks, and I would have just spawned a flat mach just under the water so you could park your "boat" on them.

TBreezie, if you're going to seriously go after a boat mod, let me know. I have found the perfect place for it if you cared to know. It's a big open waterway with "docks" on both side of the lake.

Also, those flames on your warthog look just like the ones I used on my "flame ghost" I did a while back. It wasn't as good as yours by any means, but it sure reminds me of the same ones. Did you get those flames on Google like I did?

Good work, man. I love the contrast with the fire and water in that first picture.

i would imagine thats where most people get their pics from lol...

Haha yeah, but for me, the flames are one very few textures I've gotten from Google.

Here's a picture of it just to keep somewhat on topic. I stretched my flames out a lot so they'd fit my liking, but they used to look much like his. Either case, he did a MUCH better job with his than I did with mine. You can see the obvious problems I had with the bump. I no longer have that problem.

I like the design other than all the little dents around the actual bump (which I assume are the obvious problems you had and fixed). What was causing that anyways?

It's a problem with the NVidia Normal Map filter for my Photoshop. Though I didn't fix the filter, I have found a way to make sure it makes me smooth normals.

Blurring the output usually works nicely...
