New asault rifle?

[paintballakid5]

Ok you guys, i know it's just a box, but it's still a work in-progress and it's not supposed to look like the normal Assault rifle, but i made this one, just for fun, but don't go trash talking about it, becuz it's not done yet...:)

i'm still working on it, but let me know what you think...

bevels :-/ needs more details on the sides

[Elite Killa]

Needs A LOT of more work.

[paintballakid5]

Needs A LOT of more work.

yeah i know, thats what i was saying

[Jay2645]

Didn't we just get through your last thread, which was locked?
The only difference I can see is that this one has 2 circles in it. Oooh.

Use that plane modeling tutorial from your last thread, and come back when you have followed EVERY word in it. I know you didn't watch it, because it takes 5+ hours to watch.

[Archon23]

Oh and this trash talking? Its called criticism. So listen to it.

[paintballakid5]

by the way, does anyone know of a "video" tutorial in Gmax to make weapons?

because, my weapons never show up in Fp:(

[Elite Killa]

Do you even have FP animations? :confused2:

[Jay2645]

You make weapons in Gmax the exact same way you do in 3DS Max, it's just that you use different tools.

And look through TheGhost's tutorial resource, you'll see a link to it on the side of the Halomaps HCE main page.

[paintballakid5]

yeah, i use the AR animations, and the CHIMP won't let me Export the weapon out of Gmax, without making a frame, not frame gun, so i think that might be it, and my other one runs out of memory er something...

Chimp is so 2004.

Use TheGhost's bluestreak.

Way better than old Chimp.

Even though you paid attention to giving it some detail, it's still plenty bad. too fat, too misshapen, just bad proportions. Check out the tutorials you were linked to, and don't continue modeling until you've gotten these watched.

[paintballakid5]

thanks teh lag, i think this'll work, do the nodes have to be Boxes, or can they be Spheres?

When i import Gbx models, they come in as spheres...

[Jay2645]

Use the stuff from the GBX models, those'll work.

[paintballakid5]

ok, i tried top download the exporter "download v1.0.1 of the script here (http://ghost.halomaps.org/bluestreak/jms/JMS_Exporter_v1-0-1.ms)." and it brought e to a page of the actual code, how do i Download it as the .ms

I'm not sure myself, but if they come in as spheres then I would assume it goes out as triangles spheres, too.

Also, glad to see you read SnaF's post. :rolleyes:

Right click, save as.

Nodes can be anything. Boxes or spheres work best though, since you can keep track of them nicer.

Paintballa, listen to Snaf. He speaks wise words.

[paintballakid5]

ok, my computer is really wierd, i can't right click and save as...

so can you just send it to me? do you have xfire? mine is paintballakid5

and if you can email me the stuff, my email address is pirates_all_together@yahoo.com just let me know if you send it.

[SnaFuBAR]

the files are rather large... you're best off figuring out how to d/l them yourself.

[paintballakid5]

a .ms is large?

[Jay2645]

Wait.
Are you on a Mac?
Macs can't right-click, and that would be the only logical reason for you not being able to save as.

I would say that he probably is not.

Unless he's using some freak mac-windows hybrid.

Edit : @ below, might wanna try right clicking on the DL link itsself... >_>

[paintballakid5]

[Hurrvish]

Just click open FFS

[paintballakid5]

sorry, but i don't know what you mean, lol what do i do to DL this .ms file?

I know i'm a noob but i need help lol.:P

[Hurrvish]

You could always try copy and pasting into Notepad. Then changing the .txt extension to .ms

[paintballakid5]

hold on, thats cuz i have a plane in there, but it works fine without, but what am i supposed to use as a Grab listener? can i use the one from Chimp?

[Roostervier]

Make sure you have nodes and the like in your scene... Make sure they match the assault rifle's, too.

[paintballakid5]

yeah i do, but can i use the Chimp grab listener as a a grab listener for this exporter?

No one's gonna help me?

[paintballakid5]

come on, i need ur help...:(

Sorry about the double posting! oops!

[Zeph]

I warned you. Take a day or so break from here and work on your model a bit more. Go to halomaps.org, download a few tutorials, and read up on them. At least go over the material before you try to ask some more questions about it.
