I would also appreciate if any 3D artists could take on the assignment to Help me create all the units for this mod. In the rate I'm creating the units now, I can't see the finish line.
So PLEASE, unit creators. Help us finish this mod! Thanks :D

Grey Fox Mar 10, 2003, 04:55 PM Ah, come on 3D Modelers and Animators!
We need your help here! ;)
bhiita Mar 10, 2003, 05:09 PM :D I'm a 3d modeler :p
I'll try and start on some units, by the time I get the ones I'm working on now compleated I should be pretty fast, well.....faster than I am now anyway ;)
I'm not really familiar with........:hmm: anything now that I think about it. Is there a site that has most of the characters on it for reference?
Grey Fox Mar 10, 2003, 05:16 PM I could mail you some pictures.
And please post what unit you intend to do, so that I and my 2 friends who might help me won't do them.

bhiita Mar 10, 2003, 08:27 PM :) I'll try and do these.......Of the ones I think I could possibly tackle, these would be my fovorite. I'l let you know in a few days if I'm able to make them ;)
:edit: if you have some different angles, you can email those. :)
Grey Fox Mar 12, 2003, 04:43 PM I'll send you some pictures later today.
One of my friends are making the ATV and the other might make the Elites.
bhiita Mar 12, 2003, 09:22 PM With alittle more playing around, the wings are giving me trouble, it looks like I can duplicate the purple thing almost exactly :) and if I can do that, then I should be able to do the dropship ;) but I haven't attempted anything on it yet, though it looks easier.
Grey Fox Mar 12, 2003, 09:40 PM Ok, here is two zip files with images of the two units. They are not perfect, but the Ghost has one from "almost" the side.

bhiita Mar 12, 2003, 10:07 PM :) Thanks, the ones of the Ghost help alot. I couldn't tell it was a glider type thing :( But I'll be able to make them.
Animating them though........
this sums up my progress in that department,
:wallbash:
Sir John Mar 13, 2003, 09:51 AM The ghost hovers right over the ground. its about half a meter over the ground.. have you played halo before Bhiita??
bhiita Mar 13, 2003, 11:06 AM :( No, I haven't had the chance yet. It sounds nice though :)
Thanks for the tip about the ghost. ;)
Grey Fox Mar 16, 2003, 07:58 AM I've started a new strategy into creating the Halo Units. I will try and make as many units I possibly can, and make still animations of them. And after a while, I will make the Attack animations first (as that is most important), and then the Death. And when it's needed, I will create the rest of the animations.
This will really speed up the process. And I recommend it for anyone that wants to help me with this. Mainly bhiita I guess ;) (I got two friends here helping me aswell, but I don't know how much they will do)
Random Observer Mar 16, 2003, 11:16 AM i can help a little I can make a 3D models of vichles but not animate them. What units do you need? by the way could I use the model for the scorpion?
Sir John Mar 16, 2003, 11:26 AM You could do this one:

Its the Covenant Mortar Tank..
Grey Fox Mar 16, 2003, 11:42 AM What do you want the model of the Scorpion for?
Random Observer Mar 16, 2003, 02:15 PM Im gonna use it in a Halo mod for a different game. Ill give you credit for the model but i was gonna reskin it
Random Observer Mar 16, 2003, 02:22 PM Ill work on the mortar tank
Random Observer Mar 16, 2003, 02:26 PM Ill use this pic for refrence

What game?
Random Observer Mar 16, 2003, 02:59 PM Jedi Outcast, it will be just sitting in a level like a hanger or a base or somthing
EDIT: I would need it in a format gmax can handle also what format did you make it in?
Grey Fox Mar 16, 2003, 03:19 PM It's made in 3D Studio Max, but I can export it in several different file formats.
Random Observer Mar 16, 2003, 03:20 PM gmax can import AutoCAD and 3DS so you can pick whichever one.
Grey Fox Mar 16, 2003, 06:11 PM Added two more units to the preview list. (Marine and Halo Boat) http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?postid=836176#post836176
And sorry Random Observer, I'll send you the files tomorrow.
Random Observer Mar 17, 2003, 07:33 AM allright, i think i should say this would be my first model so it wont be perfect.
Grey Fox Mar 19, 2003, 12:54 PM Added link to the Grunt (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=48040) in the first post.
And so you won't start working on them. My friends are working on the ATV, and the Elite unit.
