Just a reskin of my M41A with the TSA logo on it and slightly better origins.
I can't put the gun any more forward or else you'll see the insides of the left arm <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Comments?
The skin is a WIP... i may very well change the green to fit the LMG and HMG green better.

    A little lighter green and you got yourself a winner! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    ? WHY didn't anyone else think of this? Seems reasonable to me xD
    I like the green touch, someone should definitely attach a flashlight to that thing

    I COULD raise the model a little to show the left arm pressing the mag release button and putting in a new one.. but i may have to put the gun further back.. and i can't raise it too much or else the end of the barrel will go over the crosshair and look weird.

    The reason I stopped using the Pulse rifle already released is because you can't see it when it's reloading... make him pull it up to his shoulder or something so we can see him pull the magazine out and put a new one in.

    Also, does that ammo counter actually work?

    but what about alternate colors?
    edit:you know i got an interesting idea
    I was playing halo and i noticed the rocket launcher said sp4nker
    could you put something to that affect on the gun possibly

    Yes the ammo counter works:
    It displays 50 bullets when idle
    "- -" When firing
    "00" during the EMPTY anim
    "RE" during reloading.

    Impossible to make it count down without coding.

    I could remake the reload anim.. i have gotten better at it <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    *ediT*"Spanker"???

    Yeah, your old reload anims seemed kinda...(dare i say) newbish...but i know you arent.

    Maybe just make some individual counter pieces and animate those. its a lot easier and more believeable.

    You can prolly also open several new origin places if you do a little (whats reverse tapering called?). Its unnoticeable ingame.

    Na you can say it.
    I am still a noob at animating... it's the part of modeling i have spent the LEAST amount of time on... when it should of been the most. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Anyway, the counter IS in individual peices.
    4 to be exact: 50, RE, 00 and "- -"

    I think i'll remake them to that they use transparency. Easily done.

    Edit:just so you know your site isnt working(only the home page works)

    You can do that yourself when you get the model by editing the skin files .bmps.

    My homepage is from my modeling site which i don't update anymore.. no time!

    Do you know how Digital LCD clocks are? Each number is composed of 7 individual lines (usually 4 numbers on a screen). I meant make those individual lines instead of skinned blocks. But its a waste of 4 polies each line.

    Sushi08023: !You mean MODEL the numbers themselves?

    pacmans9thnail: Photoshop pwnz j00.

    Exactly what I was thinking.

    4 polies per line with 7 lines per number in 2 numbers.

    That adds up to an extra...
    56 polies

    not to be an **** but there is a large, unoticed error with the pulse rifle, the ejection port and the cocking handle are on the wrong side.

    you see, being a buff in the this the original pulse rifle was made from an M1A1 Thompson for the base, a spas12 pump mech, spas12 stock peices, and the m41a pulse rifle body mold.

    Some ref photos of pulse rifles

    If i remember correctly the rounds that the Pulse Rifle fired was "10mm explosive tip caseless standard light armour piercing" so there wouldnt really be needing an Ejection port right?

    but thats just me maybe i'm wrong <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    No, do it. I was gonna use the TSA rifle, but when you shot nothing happened so I was like, bleh.
