max power 21 Posted March 12, 2012 If you have the polygons, slatts, I discovered something that helps the look of tranparent objects while I was working on some liquor bottles (and trust me, I know what an empty liquor bottle looks like :p). It really helps the look if you can make an inner surface to the plastic. Then you have highlights and shadows on the inside surface, and it makes the whole thing look a lot more dynamic. What I did was just copy the bottle mesh, flip it inside out, and them move the vertices by their normals in o2. If you're not sharing the same UVs (which seems alittle excessive for a magazine), you can make changes to the material of the inner wall to make it darker and make the light the same colour as the plastic to give it that filtered look. Notably absent in this method is light distortion through refraction, sadly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rocket 9 Posted March 30, 2012 Pretty sure they're my ones. It looks like they're an unbinarized version - I have the max source files, p3d's, and PSD's that might be considerably easier to edit. You PM'd me waaay back in 2009 about them! Flick me a PM if you want the source and I can send you the mediafire link to the actual source files. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slatts 1978 Posted March 30, 2012 that PM was about using yours for some Irish units one way to be sure, does yours have a red dot textured onto the scope? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rocket 9 Posted March 30, 2012 that PM was about using yours for some Irish unitsone way to be sure, does yours have a red dot textured onto the scope? Absolutely no idea :) It's been quite a long time! And it doesn't matter anyway :) I simply offering the source files, they might be some use - it appears you have some tri-edges turned incorrectly in the initial picture that cause some corruptions.

heroes maker 10 Posted April 11, 2012 i always wondered about the magazines ... did they actually use STANAGs in polymer or their own varient ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slatts 1978 Posted April 11, 2012 i always wondered about the magazines ... did they actually use STANAGs in polymer or their own varient ? afaik they arent stanag compatible mags, so you couldnt put one in an m4 and vice versa. there is a variant that takes stanag mags. this is in real life of course ;) to make it easier in game i might make it possible to put stanag mags in them, but them you miss out on the 42 round mags :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
