W.I.P Halo 3 Battle Rifle

[Hunter]

I feel that it is in a showing condition, so that I can get some tips on what to change.

I have got more parts to make still, like the bolt. And the sight needs alot of work.

I will probobly use the handle of the sniper rifle. Because the battle rifle handle is horrible.

What do you think so far?

P.S. I posted it here as well because no one is replying to the thread in The Studio, and I need to know if it is any good.

Oh and the poly count so far:

Halo 3 Battle Rifle;
Polygons - 2, 353
Vertexes - 3,067

[Roth]

I hate those /\/\/\/\/\ on the sides but it looks neat though.

And isn't the scope kinda bigger? I haven't played h3 so...

[Hunter]

I think it is. I need to work on that. And yay. A post lol.

[Masterz1337]

Scope needs alot of work, as oes the bottom of the handle area. The butt is weird, and teh display screen is more boxy in h3.

[Hunter]

Ok. Thanks Masterz. I will work on that.

I will probably do scope last.

[PenGuin1362]

I don't like the area around the display, the scope, and the grip. Fix those. Grip needs to have a more rounded appearance, and I don't just mean smoothing.

[Phopojijo]

Various places I see little issues with vertex placement. Nothing really too noticeable in realistic applications of the gun though... not really even sure if they're worth the time fixing.

Other than that -- pretty damn good.

[Hunter]

Good. Thanks. I just need to redo that sight now.

[Patrickssj6]

I think I just gave you that green bar and only because I like that model. :awesome:

[Hunter]

Lol. Thanks. IM GREEN!! YAY! Lol.

[I_Am_Error117]

Uhh looks pretty good.

Some things could use a little work. Anyone else think the scope is off?

[Hunter]

Scope is waaaay of. Ive got to remake it.

[paintballakid5]

looks nice... good job Hunter..

[TeeKup]

Theres just something about that grip that makes me want to kill a kitten. It looks deformed.

[kid908]

gun looks good. grip looks like shit...

[Hunter]

I used the grip of my Sniper Rifle. But i had to make it thinner. I don't like it either.

So im going to remake it so it is like the actual Battle Rifle grip. But... Make it smoother. Because Bungies Battle Rifle grip is just and extruded block... Mainly because they use bumpmaps, and you don't notice the grip much....

I still don't like the sight. Does it look any good to you?

[DaneO'Roo]

The grip needs to be fucking round, just cut more subdivisions in it and make it round.

[teh lag]

The grip needs to be fucking round, just cut more subdivisions in it and make it round.

^

Also, the ammo counter area doesn't look like it's correct relative to the scope, and the end of the gun doesn't seem right either.

[Heathen]

The grip does look bad. It sort of seems like a rock.

[SnaFuBAR]

all the proportions look flat out wrong.

[Disaster]

Nothing, except for maybe the stock, looks good. The stock still has some problems with proportions like Snaf said however.

Btw, are you not capable of smoothing the guns forward hand grip?

[Hunter]

Update:

I have noticed some errors on the render. And there are some parts I need to add and edit.

Also, I got it IN-GAME!

Shot tag won't work: Click here (http://hdkriq.blu.livefilestore.com/y1pLNCJWSOXrVGr65Z2RAwA-IhB-cAVfKBiMDDIhHOaQ8YMeCJg2cVL741eczOAFsOFQJsCVkKiz-KwcYOfiZEhIA/926632_20071204_screen023_mybr.jpg)

Only kidding, I just made a first person view of it.


And I made a custom grip.

[Disaster]

Make the scope have the curved eye piece like in h3 and make it slightly bigger.

[Hunter]

Ok. I will make it bigger. The eye piece is actually curved, but you can't see in the render:

[teh lag]

Front grip still looks nasty, scope still looks too small. The latter is even CLEARLY obvious in the fp view you posted - why didn't you fix it? The butt of the gun is also still not looking right.

[Hunter]

latter?

[Disaster]

Meh, I still dont like the eye piece. It needs to be more smooth and rounded. Not a jagged inward curve. Also please smooth the unsmoothed parts on the grips and trigger area.

[teh lag]

latter?

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=define%3Alatter



the second of two or the second mentioned of two; "Tom and Dick were both heroes but only the latter is remembered today"

latter(a): referring to the second of two things or persons mentioned (or the last one or ones of several); "in the latter case"


second of two mentioned, as in: I saw Barbara and Betty this morning, and the latter said to give you her best wishes.
:downs:

[SgtBotley]

yeh, where that eye piece looks fubar'd (where it starts to curve), mb just insert a line in there and adjust the vertices to accomodate the curvature start.

lol i think it looks awsome atm, but does seem and awful lot of detail for Halo 1... mb think more for gameplay then brownie points?

[TeeKup]

That grip still makes me want to kill a kitten, please fix it.

[Hunter]

http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g268/martynball/BR_10.jpg
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g268/martynball/BR_11.jpg

[teh lag]

Why have you still not changed the fact that the front grip is nothing more than a series of bevels? We've told you enough now, there's no excuse not to have fixed it.

[SgtBotley]

yeh i hate the front grip... the rest is nice i guess.

[TeeKup]

If you don't fix that grip I WILL kill a kitten.

[Donut]

it might just be the perspective but it seems like the triangle parts are in too far

[ICEE]

The slide section seems a little to long

[Hunter]

Stupid grip!!

Lol. I don't know how to do this grip. Is there a good tutorial some where?
Or could someone explain to me on how to make it/a grip?

I still need to double check the scaling. Does the sight seem better now?

Please DONT kill the kitten, it will be fixed. Please almighty T33KUP! PLEASE!!
Spare its LIFE!!

I post at more than one forum.

Honestly, I can't tell why you're still putting off the repair of the foregrip. Just do it already. D:

[teh lag]

THIS

For god's sake, why are you completely disregaring our advice? We've been saying from the start that you need to work on it. Really, it's like a slap in the face of those of us trying to help you when you keep posting pics without any acknowledgement of our advice.

[Pooky]

Honestly, I can't tell why you're still putting off the repair of the foregrip. Just do it already. D:

Well, if this is supposed to be a view model it doesn't really look all that bad in first person ... and LODs will probably keep it from being a big concern in 3p

[Donut]

if he makes lods

[Hunter]

I will fix grip when everything else is fixed.

[SnaFuBAR]

right.

[TeeKup]

I will fix grip when everything else is fixed.

Well from my perspective everything else seems just fine. You're putting off the grip because you don't want to have to go through the trouble of possibly reshaping that area. Stop being lazy and do it cause the grip is ruining that rifle.

[Hunter]

Lol. Ok.
http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g268/martynball/100508.jpg
Latest picture ^

Grip is next ;)

[teh lag]

Lol. Ok.
Latest picture ^

Grip is next ;)

I can't even tell what you fixed there. Please stop posting so many updates with so few changes.

[paintballakid5]

it looks ok... you really need to fix that Grip though.. just stop putting it off and fix it.. then people might actualy apreciate the model;)

it kinda like this: a great compuer with a sucky Gfx car = a Great BR with a sucky grip ;) lol...:p

[Sel]

This actually looks pretty nice.

Good work.

[Roth]

The scope looks nice, I like the blue colour :D

[TeeKup]

Thats a screen shot you tard.

[Patrickssj6]

This actually looks pretty nice.

Good work.
This.

I can't believe people are so retarded still criticizing him like they could do any better.

[paintballakid5]

Thats a screen shot you tard.

lol:lol:

[t3h m00kz]

Honestly

I would not be complaining if I were to play with that BR in a custom map. I think it looks great so far.

[BobtheGreatII]

The scope looks nice, I like the blue colour :D

Lol. Fail. :lol:

It doesn't look too bad, if you ignore all the obvious errors and everything else people are pointing out. Grip just bugs the crap out of me because of all the face errors I see and the way it looks compared to the real thing. I don't really think it would take long to fix, just get to it.

[Heathen]

It doesn't look too bad, if you ignore all the obvious errors...

As does everything?


I personally think it looks fine. Refine it a bit and you have yourself a jewel there.

[jngrow]

This.

I can't believe people are so retarded still criticizing him like they could do any better.

Same. And why do people care so much about the grip? It's just a box in H3, and it's not like you will ever see it anyways.

[MNC]

Very nice, but as said scope is a bit too small.

Also, dont people get tired of modeling battle rifles?

[Hunter]

Im modeling all the Halo 3 weapons for High Ground which me and HaloGuru are making.

Once Ive done all Halo 3 weapons I will probably do other stuff.

[Heathen]

I have seen so many BR's

Why not make a few good H3 perm bipeds.......not that anyone likes making bipeds here.

[Hunter]

I'm not that good of a modeler. Otherwise I would. But I can't.

[Geo]

Honestly

I would not be complaining if I were to play with that BR in a custom map. I think it looks great so far.

This.

If I saw this in a map I wouldn't even notice the grip. Good job.

[paintballakid5]

the grip looks ok, just add some smoothing and it'll be as sweet as candy ;)

[NuggetWarmer]

Pffftt... The perms are easy.
http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u27/foxymccloud/SecurityFinal.jpg
Ignore the neck, that's my size dummy's neck.

Also, why would you need a full biped for perms? You can just change out the permutations on a the biped model, then it randomly changes out the armor.

LOLTHREADJACK

[Choking Victim]

Keyword: good

NuggetWarmer, your model looks sloppy and inaccurate. However im not a modeler, just my opinion.

his model is quite neat and well modeled if you can't model don't give Crit.

[Darkness]

Surprising that you're saying that.

[Tweek]

by that reasoning, you shouldnt even be alive.
please kill yourself now sir.

true...;) but i've acted stupid in the past and childish and now i'm going to try to redeem myself.;)

anyway back on subject..:)

[Con]

The bottom of the screen should be curved, and the little scroll-wheel thing above the screen isn't the right size. It should also stick up a bit above the wheel.

[t3h m00kz]

<3 Security.

I don't know why everyone's so focused on modeling weapons and shit, I hardly ever see anything like WIP bipeds anymore... just weapons. Mostly the Battle Rifle.

Don't we have enough BRs guys? Everyone and their mother has a BR model laying around somewhere.

"MY BR IS BETTR URZ IS TERRIBL, OMG THESE KIDS HAV TERRIBLE BRS"

Im modeling all of the Halo 3 Weapons though. Most people just choose afew of them.

And alot of people do't have a good BR.

Why not make your own thread?

[NuggetWarmer]

Paintballa, those are :(. I was only using my model as an example.

[paintballakid5]

lol sorry not trying to thread jack ;)

[Heathen]

I'd post mine if I had any abilities......I fail.

But I, since I have an untrained eye, only look for what would look good ingame...not for whats accurate, or realistic. And so far I think it all looks great.

[Tweek]

i don't post mine, because i'm actually * GASP * original, and dont recreate shit.

whats the point in making stuff THATS ALREADY MADE.
it's just fucking copying shit.

do something fucking original.

[Hunter]

I can make what ever "I" like. If I want to make a spiker then I WILL make a spiker.

If you don't like it then don't read the thread.

I'm making all the Halo 3 Weapons, I am doing this because I am trying to make a Halo 3 Map with some friends.

Grr!! Pisses me of when people say this kind of shite when I'm doing it for a purpose.

You do what you do, and I do what I do. These forums where pretty good before you came back.

I aint starting to argue with you again. End of. Finnished. Fuk of. Done. bon au revoir.

If you comment on this when you constantly flame me then I will just put you on my ignore list. Simple as.

Lmao. How pathetic, you couldnt come up with your own post, You had to copy and paste mine. Well.

You will see that I am not being a human copymachine as once I have finnished these weapons I will be modeling custom stuff. Or making other weapons, (real life weapons).

If you want to say what you like, then do not post in MY thread. Make your own. You are now in my ignore list.

wow... i was using a popular expression amongst the youth of today to express that this thread was heading to an infraction fest... and i recieve one in the process.

what the actual fuck... this forum is worse than secondary school its so anal.., in more ways than one.

im fuckin sick of this shit hole, hope half you cunts get a life one day.

[SnaFuBAR]

then piss off. hunter, your rifle needs serious work on the front half after having seen peng's.

E: how long have you worked on just this one gun? are you seriously thinking that you're going to keep up with all this halo 3 content if it takes you so long to half finish one rifle?

[=sw=warlord]

I do love the civil tongue being used in the arguments here:eyesroll:
Though i do like the model so far albiet a few thing wrong with it but im sure you'l get around to fixing the problems.

How fucking long have I been modeling?

How long has he been modeling?

What the fuck do you expect, I do have a life as well as modeling. I do other things on the computer. I do not model 24/7. I will take as long as I want.

[SnaFuBAR]

chill out, kid. it was a serious question. i think you might lose interest.

[Patrickssj6]

Snaf was nice for once and then WMHunter falsely interpreted it xDDD

This is epic.

[SnaFuBAR]

yeah, holy crap. i lol'd

then piss off. hunter, your rifle needs serious work on the front half after having seen peng's.


Wasn't the question that annoyed me.

I understand your question, I'm now doing my GCSE Exams so I need to revise... So I aint going to have that much time, once I manage to get a laptop I can spend a long time on them and get them done.

Edit: Ohh Shit. Sorry Snaf. I thought you told me to piss off. Then I re read the posts.
Sorry. :(

I also over reacted because I thought everyone was turning against me again because Tweek is back.

[paintballakid5]

Well if you have other things to do then don't get all mad because Snaf told you more model needs more work.. just work on it and don't get pissed off about it... believe me i made that mistake of getting pissed cuz someone told me my Models suck ;) now i just accept it and work harder on my models...

[TeeKup]

Well if you have other things to do then don't get all mad because Snaf told you more model needs more work.. just work on it and don't get pissed off about it... believe me i made that mistake of getting pissed cuz someone told me my Models suck ;) now i just accept it and work harder on my models...

:hypocrite:

Also, the models eh. It looks like you used boolean. The triangles on the side are not evenly spaced, the thing you put your left hand on to hold it looks weird, and there are some proportion errors. Also I never really liked the trigger handle for this gun.

BR is overrated anyway. Looks alright though, keep it up.

[Heathen]

http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm61/HeathenHero/duty_calls.png



The BR looks fabulous IMO.......and take your quarrels elsewhere...
