Ambient models

mr_Nebel

<div class="IPBDescription">Would you use them, should i make some?</div>Recently I have had ZERO time to work on mapping but since my multimedia course began a few weeks ago i've learnt a great deal about modelling.

So what I was thinking was to make a set of models for using in the maps.
EG:
Wrench/spanner
Cups
Toolkit
Thermos
Signs (I know Relic is using holographic ones)
Potplants
Books
Pieces of paper (animating maybe)
Chairs (more than one style)

I'm pretty sure this has been suggested before but was never acted upon. If someone else would like to help with this I would gladly accept the help.
Please suggest other things that you'd want to use.

That's a great idea and I'd like to see it happen.  The amount of ambience that would be added would be great.  Looking at my idea for a map, I'd suggest more techy stuff like a bundle of wires, a large broken hard drive, etc.

I knew there was thread about this somewhere. Hopefully I can start on these in the weekend <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

mr Nebel: if you have time, can you throw together an escape pod for me? I'm thinking something loosely based on the Star Wars escape pod, with 2 versions: one clean, and one with infestation on it. If you could do that, it'd be great, especially since if I were to do it myself I'd first have to teach myself how to model.
