nightovizard 20 Posted May 11, 2015 "Also who made the model and textured it? Or it was given by someone?"The 3D model and texture have made by this guy : http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=6488 In the readme : "NO WARRANTIES. The SOFTWARE PRODUCT and any related documentation is provided “as is†without warranty of any kind, either express or implied, including, without limitation, the implied warranties or merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or noninfringement. The entire risk arising out of use or performance of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT remains with you. " We can use her model so, and it's really fantastic, we have to redone textures, but we have won a crazy time. And I don't want to excite you but there is Scarab in the file and we plan well to put it in ArmA 3. I don't know if I have to send a message to the guy who made this pack, he is died on Deviantart, her last connexion is from March 2015, and I think he connected every two years. The authorization present in the readme is enough, no ? Looks like it can be used as long as you dont gain money from it. But just in case, send him a message letting him know that you are using his asset. Also give credits if posible, post a link to his deviantart on the First post That should do. ---------- Post added at 10:37 ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 ---------- About the scarab, it can be done, ask spacenavy as je said he knows how to make the ATAT. However, are you sure those models have not been ripped from halo 3? If that is the case they wñcould not be used unfortunately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The readme said that it is not ripper from Halo game, it's "custom made". "About: This model is NOT from 4, but custom made." We going to give credits when mod will be release.

LykosMactire 298 Posted May 11, 2015 its quite possible (but not 100%) these are from the games sadly Drake,but the textures are NEAR spot on though which may discredit these being ripped, the wraith has a spot on the texture that doesnt match screens from halo 3. Along with the red covenant marks being in the wrong place on the wraith. Ghost textures and the model seems off to. so i am positive there is a chance these are not ripped. Banshee has a point in the texture also that doesnt match in the cockpit. i cant get anything on scorpion yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drakedaeron 13 Posted May 11, 2015 Best would be to be able to contact the author, but in view of his last activity, I am rather pessimistic concerning an answer of his leave. http://tucker412.deviantart.com/activity/ I don't know what to do in this case, I could believe the readme and work on these models, or abandon this idea and model quite myself. But it is very long, and I have to say that I progress slowly, and to have some vehicles less to make would be a big progress. Especially as I don't know how to prove that they are not ripped, I trust the readme. Even if of appearance and having seen the models in Blender, they do not look ripped.

nightovizard 20 Posted May 11, 2015 Looking at its deviantart I can say he is an skilled modeler too, for example: http://tucker412.deviantart.com/art/Halo-Reach-Lone-Wolf-Helmet-176803166 In this case he modeled it but used bungie textures: http://tucker412.deviantart.com/art/Halo-Reach-Lone-Wolf-Helmet-176803166 So since the model is very likely his , and you plan to change the textures, I don't think there is going to be a problem. Some time ago I contacted him but yeah he is quite inactive. But send him a message, he may reply late but it is better than nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So maybe these are the same? Using Bungie's textures is still ripping, whether the model is unique or not. I doubt he made the models, they aren't on his DA and they look too close to the originals for the textures to match up perfectly without stretching or distorting.

That is unfortunate, howerver if that's the case the same would be applyd to: http://tucker412.deviantart.com/art/Halo-Reach-Lone-Wolf-Helmet-176803166 but in the comments he says that the model is his. Strange. Well a least in the sketchup warehouse there are models which are not ripped from the games, such as: https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model.html?id=a1389890d21121d6ff0169ce721bb8bb https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model.html?id=daf3be8f8a8913306e6aba7acbea2431 https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model.html?id=555f568c31358afcffe50f88045d4553 https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model.html?id=495517c14b5cfddfa2aba4ceabf32dc https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model.html?id=8f09d10980693a36100f835659a6faba But there is not really much.

chickenfetus 10 Posted May 12, 2015 Alright guys, As far as any model we use goes First off - all credit will be given where due. 2nd - No models will be ripped from the game and we will not breach any copyright laws. 3rd - ALL textures will be redone. It was simply put on there because I was testing a tutorial I was following. 4th - We do appreciate the support but lets not spam this thread with a whole bunch of copyright dick measuring. If anyone would like to help instead of pointing out flaws please do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nightovizard 20 Posted May 12, 2015 Do you plan to have it able to overcharge? As far as I'm concerned there won't be a proper overcharge feature. Most likely it is going to have some kind of magazines, and it will use the weapon freezing animation to reload. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drakedaeron 13 Posted May 12, 2015 Do you plan to have it able to overcharge? I thought about an alternative shoot system, just like grenade launcher on a battle rifle. But no overheating if it's the question, just reload animation. But overcharge can be make, but not like in Halo Game, just like a grenade probably. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a suggestion for this weapon, the bump on the top is a viable space for iron sights if it can be split without cosmetic ugliness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drakedaeron 13 Posted May 14, 2015 That the Fuel Rod from Halo 3 : http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20070906204100/halo/images/f/fa/Fuelrodcannon.jpg Because I find him... More... Beautiful. It's my personnal preference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LykosMactire 298 Posted May 14, 2015 you should use the plasma launcher for atleast reference or as a lock on AA and AT weapon. also will the Fuel rod have an exchange like slower firing rounds to bigger damage? or is the trade off Slower rounds 4 round mags?
