AR-15 Pimpage Thread

hey,
I have working on this model yesterday, is missing somethings. Scope + Silencer + Trigger + and a reload mechanism
enjoy
oldfaq

It isn't done and I will keep you updated with the final version which will hopefully be today

Looks cool, but I think it got some 1000 or more polygons wasted. What's the polycount?

around 4300 at the moment, I acan cut it back by 1000 I think, its going to be a high poly weapon but I know I can defiantly cut the polys back a lot
oldfaq

Thats a load of polys for a weapon.

holy crap wayyy too many wasted polys, about 2 thirds of it is not needed

VERY nice

way to many polys and to less detail

3200 polys now, Im cutting it down and this is not the finished version
oldfaq

Take off all those uneeded stacks, like on the hand grip, the butt stock, and some on the reciever,and there some wasted on the carrying handle on top, and on the front iron sight.
But other than that, thats a real good model you got there.

in abit I will be showing some screens, and thanks for the pointers, I got rid of the most wasted stacks of indices and etc thanks

This is what you've all been waiting for the finished product, there will be lowerpoly ones that I will do later on also and I will be showing my uzi off soon also
oldfaq

nice, how many polys now?

looks pretty sweet, I'm looking forward to seeing the uzi.

hey,
with the grip that makes it 4600, but thats just for pimpaging purposes the one that will be textured will have a normal grip which makes it 3800, just need to make some nice renders and you can see the uzi its done just had to touch it up
oldfaq

the proportions look kinda screwy...
not good quality really at all :/
for that poly count and that little detail

Without the fancy grip it should be no more than 1500 polys.

Can you show us a wireframe of the side?

Its only becuase I built the main part out of a 12 sided cylinder.
oldfaq

i like it but the high poly count will deter people from even thinking about having it..

its average.

4,200 poly is not average for a v_wep!!!

im talking about the quality.

oh i see..well when the skin is shown then people will judge it accordingly

its 3800 yes we are looking for a hgood skinner and when you are playing a game, do you worry aobut the polycount? model + skin is good
oldfaq

well far cry (which my mod uses) has a max poly count of only 1500 for weapons, now what is weird is that for half-life 1 i have a 8100 poly model in it and there is no lag so i mean depends on what you mod.

wow 8100 poly model?//? i thought HL1 only supported 3500 max for gun+hands, and far cry supports wayyy more then 1500 bro....its revolutionary, coming out almost same time as HL2, if you seen the preview the guns the people have are sooo graphical
