The longsword breaks slc? :( That would just ruin ALL my plans. Gonna' start a new thread about that in a minute.
I think I'll go with raptor. Can't believe I hadn't thought of that already. As for the wombat... just the fact that you had to tell us what it was would kind of mess it up for people. Like, nobody would get it. They'd be alll "Wombat? wtf?" Think I'll be sticking with stingray for the tank.

:::EDIT:::
Yo Snaku, i got it made, its slightly smaller in wingspan and position than your raptor, but i think the name "Raptor" is a lot cooler than "Flighthog" i was wondering, since its an adaption of your raptor if it could be called the "Raptor X-17" or something like that.... BTW heres some Picts, (havent finished skinning yet)

Hm... y'know, I think I might like that one better than mine. And yes, it needs a new skin. Or a new shader, since using the right shader will make it reflective so that it matches the hog (I used the scorpion turret's shader 'cuz it looked pretty cool). Or a new shader with a new skin. Like, when I gave it the turret skin, it wrapped pretty good, but the little.... etchings on the wings would look better if they were lined up to where the one part of the wing ends and the next begins.

ive half done a texture and it allready looks mega crazy, as for shaders, with the texture im creating there basicly unrequired... so whatya reakon for this models name the "Raptor X-17"? cos i wont use a name till you agree with it, cos its your basic design.

Name it whatever you want, man. The only reason I ever made the thing was to try to figure it out for you anyway. Then I liked it and kept it, but I'm just the technical one here; you're the creative one. Btw, thanks for all the ideas I'm stealing. 8)
Since the wings have no collision, your design is probably better gameplay-wise, too. You don't notice too often on mine, but the wings will go right through stuff. It'd be cool to give them collision (actually phmo in this case) and make it so they do more damage than average impacts do--kind of like the wing is slicing you.
[edit] And Raptor X-17 sounds cool. Does the x-17 mean anything or is it just cool?

Well you could give the wings colloison by moving the suspensions to the side. it would give it some collosion. I actually thought about that for your attempted motorcycle hog snaku. you could try moving 2 bones to the middle of the hog and but a wheel at the end of each bone then stick the other 2 bones off to the side at a downwards angle as training wheels maybe?

Fun stuff,

I will post my Dune Buggy later.

for the Raptor X-17, i was going thru a few diff names that allmost everyone knows like
F-14 Tomcat
and the
FA-18 Hornet
so i just figured it needed a "model number" Hence the
X-17 Raptor.

Dune Buggy

This is basically the warthog, but it is faster, and is low weight. I also had to move the suspension bones up a little bit and some with the wheel markers. This thing is incredibly fun to drive due to its lack of weight and since it is so speedy. You can go flying really far off the hills. here are pictures of me having fun. it looks like a normal warthog in the picture kind of but it really seems alot shorter.

I should call it the moon buggy due to its "lack of gravity" :P

Thanks!

I am going to try to bring a hog from a different map in and spawn it to show the difference of hight when just sitting on the ground.

Dunno it feels like there could be a little more to it though...

How about giving it some kind of proj out the back with lots of force and no damage: jump jets. Kind of like in Advent Rising. By the way, if you up a vehicle's "force" (can't remember where I found it) you increase its susceptibility to force (being pushed by weapons with high force).
You could either go with giving it a chamber time of like half a second (to keep it more... balanced) or give it 0.01 and make it fully auto to make it fly. By the way, a vehicle that flies like this should be able to penetrate the banshee barrier.

would it be steerable? or would it just go in a straight line?

I was actually wondering what it meant my force when I saw it in dothalo :P I will try that. I am actually thinking of setting the warthog horn to a smg fire and spawn it right where the bumper is. Then jack up the force like you said and then yeah, I could have little boost kind of thing :wink: . That would be really cool!

-Doom

Edit: hmm ok I seem to be having a little problem I did some stuff so now I have smg2, it has its own proj. and jpt! So I could use the normal smg. So I fixed the jpt! by getting rid of the damage and adding a little force to start with. I then swap smg 2 out with the warthog horn but!!! I can't seem to find a way to move the smg back.

Help

Thanks

Heh. Yeah, I told Dazz I could move his horn-rocket for him, so he sent me a sppf. It didn't take me too long to figure out there wasn't a marker for it. Or if there is, I couldn't find it. I ended up editing the proj's first person offset, but you won't be able to rotate that.
Maybe give it a weapon in place of the turret and move that marker? I couldn't figure out how to get the driver seat to fire the turret, but I didn't really try that hard--can't be that hard.
Also, Dazz, it wouldn't be steerable. Have you ever played Advent Rising? The jeep in that game (sort of ripped off from Halo) had a boost that you could use to jump. It'd just boost you in the direction you were already going. It was really fun to fire it in midair. Now if you could make it a turret that fires backwards, it would give you some steering (though I think that thing would be really freakin' hard to fly).

nah, never played it, BUT i did download a HaloUT mod for UT2004, and somone made a "Warthog SPX" it had a missile bilt onto the back and it was used for jumping, (and suiside bombing with alt fire) im guessing it would be like that, just goes in a straight line and falls out of the sky when it stoped firing (3 second burst)...

Also, it was possible to make the jeep driver fire the turret in Halo 1, but i think the turret and jeep in that were the same model :-S.... but it MIGHT be possible to doo.
