My Wraith Cannon Launcher

I imported the model into milkshape.
then i exported the model to obj from milkshape.
that changes the way it looks in notepad.
I coppied all the lines that stated with V in notepad.
I opened an umoddified rocket launcher in notepad.
selected all the lines that start with V
pasted over them

i'll give that a shot fuzz.

final question, i promise

did you copy just the v, or others too, like the vn and vt coordinates?

ONLY THE V'S!! V=vertices. and feel free to ask as many questions as u want

the orig. file is setup like this:
v
vt
vn
f
but the maya version is setup in a kind of repeating fashion, like:
v
vt
vn
f
v
vt
vn
f
etc...
should i rearrange the new file into the orig. format, then overwrite the v's.?, or
should i split up the v's from the new file and overwrite the orig. v's?

and yes, i realize that sounds confusing as hell

well, i'm working on the skin...
here's what it's going to look like (mostly)...
let me know if anyone has any suggestions

i put the blue in cause i meant it to be for the wraith cannon, but i think it probably might be better in green

if anyone has any modelling ideas let me know...i'm thinking about doing a vehicle, just haven't had any ideas...

that skin cud use some changes. Its great work and all, but theres something about it that doesnt fit the weapon. If its gunna shoot wraith mortars, it needs to be more covanant-like. Purple or somethin. I dunno, but keep up the good work.

Ive always wanted to see a really well done ATV in halo. Mayb use a very lite, front mounted weapon. But mainly for speed and versitility.

i've only finished the third person view for the model, but here it is anyway. I'll leave it as an .obj and and .dds so you can just import it into whatever map you want...the first person will be up tommorow or the day after. remember...this is not done yet...the model may need adjusting

right click "save as":

the model - http://www.angelfire.com/theforce/bigsn ... uncher.obj

the bitmap - http://www.angelfire.com/theforce/bigsn ... uncher.dds

if you notice something f**ked up, let me know
