Can't make it in any industry as just an ideas man. I know I've always been scared to start my own project merely on the basis that I can't program, and really it's the programmer that dictates what your mod can and cannot do.
I like the idea of a vampire mod, but definatly go with something...
where the joints are just make sure each division(3 divisions minimal to make a good joint, however, for low poly hands in Unreal I've seen them use 2) loop around the finger.
" So, any models which require deformation will need all their deformable parts to have edges organised into uninterrupted loops?"
Well, no, there is no rule that requires it; but it's a better way to model and have proper deformation.
A lot of problems with deformation are solved with...
I noticed an other thread about edge looping that contained this example as well on the torso, it show sthe importance of it for proper deformation of the shoulder.

Pretyt much find a wire frame of any decently modeled character and you'll see edge looping apply. Like OCybr said, a continous loop of edges, but for proper deformation. The set up for looping can be very different from model to model depending on the structure you want to convey, like bone and...
Claiming ignorance is no excuse, because the factis you know now, though the people here are being a little hard on you.
Ona side note, when I saw the title, and I was like "Oh cool, bid for power is coming to HL2"
That is coming from me who didn't even know it was a Dragonball Z mod...
XSI a horrible beginners program? Are you on crack or any kind of mind altering drug?
Sorry, but I just disagree. XSI maybe not be the best program out there, but it's certainly the best beginners program. XSI is a revamped version of SoftImage 3d, meaning it's interface was created from the...
Hey, thanks for the great response, a lot of work ahead and hope I can do it pretty quickly as any project is eager to just get a model out of the blue.
I just have one future preference, is that all requests be made through e-mail now (I'll still be checking this thread though) for...
I've started a query and always looking for more requests...
Though Will's project isn't necessarily HL2, I'll still give it a shot; basically as a guinea pig :)
I do have a question though, what sort of style are you going for Will? Since the concept art looks like it could go either way...
Well, like I said, I am not looking to join one, just do a model or two for any modification that needs help.
I'm up for anything, just as long as I don't have a personal disagreement with it(ex: something outrageously obscene or the like)
Hey,
I was a little inspired by Sprafa's writing post and thought I'd try out the same thing, only what I am good at, modeling.
I haven't really found a mod I'd want to be dedicated to(I have a touch of the a.d.d, lol) so I'd thought I'd offer to do some models for any team wanting a...
