B@Co 323 Posted May 10, 2016 Hello everyone, I would like to share my work in progress regarding "the Great White Shark". I got almost all animations don for this animal comming alive, and working in game. The big need however is still a good working fsm and ai scripts that sends this monster towards you when you are in the Arma3 waters ;P , so any one in the community or BIS who can assist me with that will make me verry happy. Greetings B@Co 20 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ineptaphid 6413 Posted May 10, 2016 It looks fantastic! I am very excited for this. As you are looking for ai scripts, maybe contact the people who made the Raptors mod? i imagine the predatory scripts would be similar? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ineptaphid 6413 Posted May 11, 2016 Take a look at how Chiron made his Crocodile that lurked in waters of my Lingor Island ;) There were crocodiles in Lingor?! I never used it in A2-only got into modding for A3. I wish I had seen crocodiles... :( I know that was offtopic-apologies 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Von Quest 1163 Posted May 30, 2016 So wicked cool. Did you do the model and textures yourself? If so, they look AWSOME! What software did you use? Wish BIS would put more into the vast, massively untapped potential, of the water environment. This is fantastic stuff. Keep her going man! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B@Co 323 Posted May 30, 2016 @Von Quest, thx for your compliment. I did make the model and animations myself. Oh and yes the transitions need some tweeking. I used Zbrush to UV and paint texture and detail. The modeling i did in Lightwave, easy to use and great export possibilitys. And of course Ps :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B@Co 323 Posted May 31, 2016 Apex!!! what an improvement, thx BIS! 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
