Maybe it's one of those gametypes where you don't start with a weapon.

And maybe the orange Spartan just spawned...and the blue Spartan is a spawn camper!

Well I finally finished my new little black rifle on Sat.

so I have had a little time to work on rendering. Here is an updated picture, Chief is now using sort of a fireman's carry due to the mass controversy surrounding his actual strength

. By the way in the other pose he was not carrying the marine around, it was supposed to be more of a "Oh crap! let's get the heck out of here!" pose, almost like dragging... Well I suppose if you have to explain a picture it is not done properly

Anyway here is the new one:

Battle Rifle and Visor materials need some cosiderable work, but the pose is better.

It's a legitimate strategy!

What Tural said.
And his grip on the Battle Rifle is odd.
Also, the knee scratches are messed up.

im not going to start an argument about this, because then you'll just use big words and i'll give up.

What is wrong with them? I think it is just the lighting...

fix the Marine's bumps

What's the big deal with the Marine's bumps? They are just the ones extracted with Ch2r.

I will work on the BR, thanks. Also, did anyone notice the light coming off the display of the BR? Do you think I should make it brighter or darker or remove it or what?

I also think I need to make the visor a little darker. Am I supposed to use the MC's diffuse for the color? When I do it looks a little to silverish.

Every single one of the metal knicks in the armor is complete black.

exatcly, the ch2r ones don't look right if you just apply the normal filter to them. look at this image to see what i mean:

get it?

Not once did I ever say it was bad, Veegie, I was saying the bumps don't even look close. Don't put words in my mouth. I know you hate it when people do it to you.

GametagAeonFlux · Post by **GametagAeonFlux** » Mon Apr 10, 2006 11:41 am

Aren't you supposed to invert the alpha channel before using the filter?

Veegie[Temp] · Post by **Veegie[Temp]** » Mon Apr 10, 2006 11:43 am

Jordan, are you honestly saying he is bad because he doesn't have Halo 2's rendering engine?

the ch2r ones don't look right if you just apply the normal filter to them

The 'ch2r ones' are the game one pre-conversion. Unless you have the algorithm the game uses to convert the bumps to normals, I suggest you stop complaining about their usage.
I said keep the discussion to a minimum, and I mean it. Now comply.

Cool, but I don't like the visors.

Veegie[Temp] · Post by **Veegie[Temp]** » Mon Apr 10, 2006 12:41 pm

Intentional. I got tired of the ingame look.

Tanasoo · Post by **Tanasoo** » Mon Apr 10, 2006 9:11 pm

Okay I did a little material tweaking, what do you think?

S'awesome to me, But that visor looks...too bright. Tone it down a little bit?

V0Lt4Ge · Post by **V0Lt4Ge** » Tue Apr 11, 2006 9:37 am

Yeah, and the scratches on the armor are still black like Veegie said.
