in NS Customization
<div class="IPBDescription">HA Models perhaps?</div> I don't know how many of you are familiar with the MECH series, but I was playing a game a little while ago (cause my map is still compiling... go figure) and I thought... WOW! These might look SWEET reskinned as Heavy Armor in NS!

Pictures!

I dunno why... I'd just LOVE to see the Orion in as an HA replacement... jsut looks so.. even.. I guess <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    i dont think these would work in ns, mainly because HA requires hands, which these wouldnt work with, and also the size and frame of them, even if scaled down, wouldnt fit into the HA size

    Hand eh? Well... there's one with CLAWS... would the be close enough? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Why would they need hands tho? All the guns could be built in (would need custom Anim's, V_models, and more...)


    Hehe, I love the Mad Cat too dude! That's the Mk 2!

    BTW- Daishi is Japanese for Great Death <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    do you guys realise that along with the HA models, you can make shotty, pistol, knife, hmg, and lmg models with the V models that are..made specifically for the HA suit? like instead of a hand with a hmg its like...a chain gun sticking out or a barrel or some light snub cannon or something. quite easy concept..

    yes of course, but you cant make a seperate one for the p_model, thats the problem. only way that would work is if you had a mech for LA also, and it had some of the same basics, like same weapon types and stances or sumat.

    yeah.
    One solution would be to encase the whole gun into the arm, but it would have to be pretty big.

    even the gears from "Heavy Gear" would be too big (they are a lot smaller than the Mechs but still around 3 meters high <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo--> )

    I'm not familiar with the MECH series. But, those do look like Battletech mechs.

    thats because they ARE battletech mechs jamil <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    The atlas would kind of work,just because its vaguely humanoid......my fav is the cauldron born tho <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    *whistles* mech battle assault. well it started out as a mod but it's going to be a stand alone (my brainchild) It's now owned by the coder though, because well i just model.

    Bah, Bushwhacker all the way! (I spelled it wrong tho I thiknm 0o)

    I dunno... it's fast, good armor, and good weapons (when customized) for it's size <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> Plus the profile makes it harder to hit!

    the bushwhacker is good of course,also inexpensive,but a single blast from a fully loaded nova cat (8-9 ER large lasers....I forget exactly) can kill it in one shot......it overheats the nova of course and shuts it down,but you kill the other guy <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->


    But of course,we're all going way the hell off topic and if we want this thread to survive,we had best stop talking about mechwarrior and start talking about NS <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> Not MY Bushwhacker.

    MAX Ferro-Fiberous armor all over
    HUGE XL engine
    dual Large Pulse lasers in left arm
    Guardian ECM in torso
    Command Computer (for my Atlas lancemates <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->)
    Maxor DBL Heat Sink


    I provide support by killing the pesky power-armor dudes, and the smaller mechs, while giving my heavy bashing lancemates orders <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I can also take down a stock ANYTHING with this! I just outrun ALL missiles, most ballistic, and a little laser fire!

    BTW- I still would like to know if anybody would like to model these... I'm going to try it with either zModeler or perhaps the HL2 model thingy... though THAT is complicated as HELL!

    I like either the Mad Cat or the Bushwhacker the best... sometimes it's nice to take a leiserly stroll through the bodys of your fallen enemys from the cockpit of an atlas... and sometimes it's fun to just run amok in something like the Flea!

    The flea, BTW, stands a mere 2 meters tall 0o' TINY!

    I dunno if you realize how much damage 9 ER large lasers can do........its nearly 100 points of damage on a single spot on the armor,and if that spot is the torso,mech = trashed


    its also a lot of fun to hop in a vulture or catapult,load it with high explosives,then run around and explode right next to people(in multiplayer)...it pisses them all off so bad,not to mention automatically killing anything except a fully armored atlas <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Danm it dont you people have class?

    Christ the best mech in the world (not really you get eaten alive in MP) is the vulture <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    <img src='http://www.skye-rangers.net/images/mechs/vulture.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' />


    Design wise I think its rather solid...

    Human design is made for humans I think you have more options if you realign the structues of your bot...think how stiff an Atlas is?

    Vulture have a 360 axis rotation and if they had a more versatile weapon loadout they would be quite the contender

    like being able to load two Gauss Cannons on my Arms instead of freaking with those danm PPC's where I overheat in two blasts... <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->
