I say if you are going to incorporate a laser then make a sop mod for the battle rifle. Use a laser dot scope instead of acog looking scope. Make a variation and imitate the m4 mod from cod4. Also silencer could be good.

[Hunter]

I think I might do that :D

No, needs complete integration into the frame.

[Hunter]

What do mean? So it looks like it attached more?

[JDMFSeanP]

So its not an add on

What Zeph means is that you should not see any type of extra "thing" sticking out of the frame which means the laser, not the laser case, would be integrated right into the frame. No wires showing...right? Cause it's integrated into the frame. So basically, just remove that cylinder and wire from the weapon and it's good. Just kinda make a hole or something for it to come through the battle rifle from.

[Hunter]

Ohh. Ok.

[seanthelawn]

Hunter, I have a question. Does any of your stuff actually go in-game, or are they too high-poly? Because honestly, you make some sexy stuff.

[Hunter]

Well. At the moment my Spiker and Sniper is in game. Sniper makes lag. But the sniper has almost 3 times more triangles than the Spartan Laser.

I am concentrating on getting all the weapons modelled with good amounts of detail. Then I will concentrate on making in-game versions.

And thanks.

Also:
Similar to PenGuin's because he's the god.

Any good? And the red dot sight isn't finished.

[Rentafence]

The rails are wrong. It should be an elongated hexagon viewed head on, not a trapezoid with gaps like you have. The reflex sight has nothing to clamp on to to stay attached to the gun.

[Hunter]

What? Lol. Would you be able to draw me the shape they should be Please?

[CtrlAltDestroy]

The prongs on the end of the barrel look like they're inverted.

[Rentafence]

Sorry about that crappy explanation. If you want less shit paint pic, just compare Peng's rail to yours.

[Hunter]

What do you mean by inverted?

Edit: Oh I did do that. But I mustn't of given them enough of an angle underneath. Anyway I'm going now, I will fix tomorrow. It is 3:19AM So. Yeah.... |0

[CtrlAltDestroy]

If you look at the gaps between the prongs, they won't produce the Y-shaped fire effect.

[PenGuin1362]

fix the rails like rentafence pointed out. also please...FIX THE GRIP D:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v721/PenGuin1362/gripwire.jpg

see the extra segment i have in there? gives it a more rounded appearance. my advice is start the grip over. tbh that's all that still bugs the shit out of me. few minor things but that needs to be fixed first.

[Bad Waffle]

hey pengfag, stop trying to pass old builds of my models as yours ;)

[Hunter]

I have re made grip.. This look better?

[liam3006]

Looks alot better now. Good work, kool sights. :D

[Rentafence]

I hate the look of the new grip, but it's modeled well. I would rep you but I already did that yesterday.

[Offspring]

hunter if you need help getting some guns ingame hit me up...

[Hunter]

Ok. Thanks.

[TVTyrant]

The grip is now teh secks. Very nice Hunter. Makes me wish it were real...Mmmm...BR elk hunting...

[Hunter]

Nadey launcher :D

[Heathen]

cool. Thats nice.

[nick3d]

that'll be ace ingame because the battle rifle to me is 1 of my worst weapons but with dat little "Nadey launcher" (if i am right about what it will do) you will be able blow em up :D (or isit something else so not summit which launches mini rockets)

edit: and that laser i think you should have it either above the barrel or below it so it isnt off site on lefty's or righty's so it'll be offsite on uppys or downies lol

[SnaFuBAR]

I think that GL looks horribad. It's a 70's era style on a futuristic battle rifle. Really look into all the different grenade launchers and try to come up with something visually stunning. It's also terribly impractical since it doesn't have a pistol grip. The reason they don't have grips when on an m16 is because the 30 round mag is used as grip support.

There's no ergonomics, there's no design (it's obviously a rendition of an m203 with a different loading fashion), and it's just not convincing. It's more of an eye sore than anything. All in all, trash it. It's not anything special or worth keeping.

Also... why bother copying penguin? You can't do something more than copy someone's original rendition of a model of a gun that's common as dog shit?

HOWEVER, I will say that i do like the grooves you used on your battle rifle's grip (post #21), as it's sort of a throwback to French FAMAS.

[Hunter]

I have scraped the old GL and tryed to a small one, built in. Well... I prefer to think of it as another barrel which fires exploding rounds.

And here is the original BR that I will be texturing.

Edit: Ignore the fact that the bolt is missing in the 2nd picture.

[DarkHalo003]

Nice Hunter. I think this and CMT's new pistol start a new era of laser sighting mounted on weapons in HaloCE.lol. (run-on?)

[SnaFuBAR]

no, i think it was peng's modernized br that started it. lasers on pistols has been around since pc modding.

[DarkHalo003]

Ah, never would have thought. Out of curiosity, can I have a link to a pistol with a laser sighting?

[ItsMeTerror]

I tried the laser idea a year ago.
For it to work correctly it would require a new marker plus new animations.
Here is a shitty quality video from when I was trying to get it to work.

Well, as people said before me...it's been around for a long time. Why does it always have to be some kind of innovation by CMT?

[Hunter]

Forget that its got laser sighting and Penguins GL innovated me to do it.

Does the new built in GL seem a bit better?

Also, if I wanted my BR to have laser sighting, does this mean I will get flamed because it has been done before, does this mean no one can ever do it again?

And does it really matter?

[Hunter]

I want to unwrap one of my Battle Rifle's. Chose one please people. Either the first picture or the second picture, or the basic Battle Rifle with no laser sight.

I'm keeping the thread open for 24 hours, then it will be locked.

[Darkness]

The second one plain and simple clean BR

[Masterz1337]

Leet had a laser sight pistol ages before us.

[SnaFuBAR]

Does the new built in GL seem a bit better?

no, it's just a tube. take my advice and go look at other GL's. it's an interesting approach but it's not interesting at all. animations would be very very boring. you can't even tell by looking at it that the rifle has any kind of explosive auxiliary capability.

[S3anyBoy]

It's a good idea, but its execution is flawed.
The barrel need to be bigger...much bigger.

[Hunter]

Unwrap?
1. Battle Rifle/Laser Sight
2. Plain Battle Rifle

Roughly 7 Hours remaining.

Edit: Locked early...
