HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

ok, well I decided to day that I should learn how to really use 3ds Max, so I read a few tuts, and decided to make a Tippman model 98 Paintball gun. Now before you critique it, remember this was my first model of a real gun, and I know it isn't perfect, and that may be because of the things that I dont know how to do, like make a curved cylinder for the Co2 line, but IMO, I think it looks pretty good under the circumstances. Please let me know what you think, and any advice is welcome.

nice too bad the tank couldnt be a little bit more rounder how many polys?

Yea, I got a little help from Tural who told me what to do, and how to "bend" cylinders...so here....

Why are you still using my render in your sig after I've told you countless times to take it off.....

Nice model, I dont like the grip infront, its too square.

It looks like you downloaded a weapon and added your stuff to it

Well I didn't. I'll take that as a compliment in that it looks good for being my first model of a real gun. I have another update, I found a tut on UVW Mapping, and I've been playing around a bit...

you can't really tell from the pic, but it is a teardrop barrel, well it is skinned as one, and I added "Tippman 98 Custom" on the side, and I put "Pure Energy" on the uhh... high compression tank.oh, and the co2 line is now textured as braided line, but you can't really tell from so far away...
***Im not good with rounded parts, so if anyone wants to help me out and make me a hopper (preferrably a "Halo" hopper or a power feed view loader or something) I would greatly appreciate it...

to make anything curvy use the bend modifier

how do I find out how many vertices it has?

you gunna put this puppy ingame?

well I am having trouble with DM and I can't find that vid tut that someone made, but Im going to try eventually.
