(1/3) > >>

kaeau:
stop me if im wrong, but as far as i read in the wiki, plasma grenades are needed.
so, i did some first designs,
polycount:~200
note: not textured, just added some colors..
greenish area: plasma glow inside, something like that

pls note: pre version 01, so its just a preview, nothing more, nothing final-

Mattn:
looks already very good - works for me

[edit]
there are some really nice models in your flickr account - i love the chaingun - could you maybe edit it to become a dropship or interceptor weapon?

Winter:
The plasma grenade looks nice, but it's designed like a sci-fi gadget rather than a military weapon. The trigger (the button, I presume) is located in a place where any number of things could accidentally set the grenade off. It's also a very inconvenient place to reach and a non-standard place for grenade triggers to be. Soldiers would have to think about where to find the trigger before they could even start thinking about using it.

If you want to continue this model, I recommend putting the trigger mechanism on top, with some form of safety covering like all grenades have. Also a more easily-throwable shape might be better.

By the way, I love your shotgun model. If we could replace the one we have in-game with yours, I'd be all for it. It is generally nicer and has a much more high-tech look to it.

Regards,
Winter

ahm ,these grenades are designed having aliens in mind, not humans,
and, well, they are pre version 1 :) i neither have taken the pencil in hand and drawn some sketches.. well, but thanks for the input.

the trigger: imagine a hand, holding the grenade in the middle section, button in palm direction, and pressing the trigger by pressing the grenade-button into the palm with the fingers above. in that way, the "hand" (aliens) can be designed in any way, even with two fingers, or extreme, a tentacle, as long they can grab things in general.thats the general idea so far. pre version 1 as said:)


shotgun: im currently preparing everything i have already and sorting out stuff. you can have it . for sure.
