HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

these are my first two weapons i have recently made. they are not complete with texturing and everything but here is what they look like right now.

WWII M1A1 Thomson:



M14S1 Sniper Rifle:



there are a couple of errors and im going to fix them, i just wanted to see what everyone thought.

EDIT: the FP model is not showing up in my weapons, can somebody help me.

Not that bad in general, but the models are very flat. Also fix the error where it's going through MC's shoulder.

those are cool.i wanted a rifle like that in my map.but just to think,a thompson in halo?that's sorta messed up.

I'm not gonna come down on ya cause these are your first, and thats fine. I'd just like to suggest doing this tutorial, as it will greatly improve your modelling quility. http://tutorials.moddb.com/16/beretta-9 ... -tutorial/

The first video doesn't work, but the rest should. Actually I'm thinking I might just redo the steps he does in the first vid since nobody has it anymore....

It's not difficult though. Just create a plane with the same dimensions as your reference image and apply your reference to it.

Leuikemia, fpsbanana has those tuts with the #1 working. I'll post the link in an edit.

[edit] Berreta 9000 Plane Modeling Tutorials

Thanks tom, saves me a few mins

No Problem. And ya, the first one kinda helps, but is always good to just have them all.

ya, i did a made a plane and then i modeled it. i didnt make it the exact size of the reference model so i had to mess with the uvw mapping so it would have helped if i did that. also ill check out those video tutorials and ill prob make a new model later. i have to finish the sniper rifle first though.

these area actually pretty good for a first (better than what i can do)

better yet, click alt+b and set your reference as your background.

does anyone have a good bitmaps for the front and back areas of the scope?

Nope, because if you pan around in the viewport doesn't the model move and the background stay put? (Correct me if I'm wrong)

Check the box "lock bitmap" And it's really only useful in the left viewport.

They look great.

like i said before, does anyone have a good scope bitmap?

for this part:

No, they're normally just a reflection map. Or how tiamat does it, he uses a sky texture in his.

so i can just take the master chiefs glass things relection map and put it on that?
