http://media.putfile.com/Player-28 (short video clip of some rough animation)

model not finished yet and only have about 40 frames of animation done which is really slow since its the first time i have tried to rig and animate anything. its at a little less than 2000 triangles at the moment and a baked skylight for the texture. trying to keep this very similar to the original and basically just copying the animations from the original too.

hoping i can finish this but i have a pretty poor track record.. posting here to get a fresh eye on any mistakes i may be making.

wow impressive, he moves like the orginional model which i like. looking really hot.

i think the knee caps should be a little lower

really good looking, you're definitly on the right track

and glad that other people are starting to model as well

nice, but his back looks so empty and cold

maybe add his axe on his back, NOT TO BIG eventhough i like it the way it is now. And there is something about his arm movements when he gets hit. Try to make that a bit smoother

this one looks very nice and 'faithfull' so far!
hope this model will get finished! very good job mOO!

Nice!!!

As murdoc said looks like there's a problem with the arm animation when it get's hit.

looks so damn h0t

i dont like the butt :/

Nice nice nice, good work !! Keep up

any updates?

just a crappy 20 min temp texture because i get sidetracked a lot don't worry about it actually looking like that

lowered his knee pads but it was after.

other than that i am trying to figure out how to get the shoulders to deform well without turning in to a pile of crap in the death animations when his arms go above his head. remodeled the shoulders several times and tried it as a seperate object not really sure how to handle it yet modeling for animation is totally new to me. did a few more animations as well.. will put up the .bip files for character studio when it is done in case someone else makes a player model. might help might not i barely know what im doing to get the animation done. >

wow, quite a nice texture, but i still think the knee caps are way to high (maybe make the boots less high, the knee caps are almost as high as his penis ) . And add a bit more muscle the arms so he will look a bit stronger.

lowered it after i took that shot is what i meant > the arms look skinny because there is no texture on the back side at all just black.

ah haha ok nice looking forward to the whole model good job!

his face looks too much like a mr. nice guy

give him an eye cup and a popeye grin. or maybe not.

also his arms are too far out from his body, it looks like his arms are mounted onto his body.

and please give him a big cock, everybody knows qw players have the biggest cocks.

otherwise, it's looking awesome

he sort of looks like this: >.<

he looks like he has to crap very badly
you're doing an awesome job btw!!

yeah I agree, he looks like a mr.nice guy that needs to crap very badly

mean bastards it was only to have something to look at in game checking the movement i wouldn't spend just 20 minutes for a texture on the finished one hehe. is md3 support in ezquake still being worked on? when i play back a 4on4 mvd with a player model like that in it i can't even get 77fps on a 3.8ghz cpu and shading problems as well.. in fte it works fine though and i could even get 100fps viewing the entire level with pretty much all effects on.

by the way i think those are actually thigh pads http://www.sportsnmore.com/football/images/adams/thigh/tl950.jpg

can you paste a ingame screenshot? i am really looking forward to it, keep up the gj!

yeah, I really wanna see how it looks with fte

had an older md3 with some animation applied but it takes a while to setup the model so just default pose from 3dsmax in game for the moment working on gun and axe now probably.

cant u make a 10 sec video clipp when u play with him or something?

http://media.putfile.com/Skipper-99 short clip and another fast random texture hes also missing an arm and a foot because im half way through uv mapping. trying to keep the uv layout simple in case someone else wants to make a skin..

after the uv mapping i'm going to start on the animation again. the biggest problem i have is trying to get the shoulders to work well in death animations but at least i have been learning a lot of new crap.

while skinning have you considered making your texture cordinates the same shape as the original?
so you could use old skins, that would be a really good feature witch i have been thinking about for the player model

had it like that at the start but i think its pretty limiting to the possible quality and also other skins most likely going to look weird with the base skin's armor being modeled.. and waiting for your models i keep checking your thread.

drew a sean connery face for him

uv mapping finally finished now i can do the texture and start trying to figure out the animation.

wow, this is looking really hot ! :> keep it up
