Star Trek Type II Phaser

[Abs_01 0]

Hey,

So, this is my WIP Type II phaser pistol from Star Trek:TNG. It's my first model, and I was hoping to get some feedback on how to improve it. I do know about sharp and smooth edges, but I can't quite figure out how to place it, as it is a rather curvy model. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out, because it's my first model. I know I still have work to do on the missing faces.

If ANYone has any opinions, please let me know.

the only time i found interest in startrek was that game startrek elite, this reminds me of that game a bit

Looks decent for a first try

maybe can look at screenshots from star trek and see how the weapons look like and to get some more inspiration from ey

would be cool if you could get the sounds and some sort of animation on how to hold the weapon inthe future maybe.

[Abs_01 0]

Yea, I already have a sound for it. It's pretty good quality too.

Does anyone know if it's possible to have a custom animation configured in the weapon? I know how to do it for vehicles, but wasn't sure if it can be done in a weapon addon.

Thanks for the feedback, guys!

what kind of anim? you mean the faser effect?

[Abs_01 0]

Nah, I saw another addon that has a phaser style effect. They did it by making the zasleh really long. Seems to work just fine.

I meant a custom shooting anim. I doubt it though, or else we probably would have seen it already.

I'm not sure, but I think Ghost In the Grass sniper had a custom anim... dunno if it was implemented to the unit itself or the M40 though.

hmm...do you mean the soldier's stance?

if that's the case, then no, you can't add it to the weapon itself (as far as i know)

but you can define a seperate soldier..

Are u still working on this? seems like a cool idea a phaser

maybe i someone else is interested in making a shuttlecraft?

Actually, I am an anim maker :P

Nah, I dropped this. School is pretty hectic, and besides...I work with ONS now.

If anyone wants it, I'm happy to put it up for sale (just kidding...I mean give it away for free). Just post here.

if i coul make addons i would love to have it but im just a

base creator

so if someone want a base for a mission just give me a plan and youl get you rbase

if you know some way to create addons for beginners then please give me that info!

[Abs_01 0]

Well, I created this addon after reading the helpful tutorials at Brsseb's Site. Also, in one of his tutorials he has a link for the tutorial that Col. Klink wrote on how to build an airplane. That's helpful to get down some basic modelling concepts as well.

Good luck with it! If you want to play around with the model I made and think you can improve it, let me know.

hmm litle problem...

First you must download Oxygen and viewer. Go to Bohemia Int. Studio - Breathe page and download the two ZIP files. One is the program itself (its called Oxygen, or o2 for short) and the other one is the "External Viewer" (also known as Bulldozer). You dont actually need the viewer to make addons, but its almost impossible to use o2 without it. So you need both zips then (and dont extract anythink before you are told to do so).

thi is what written ont hat site "getting started"

i pressed the link but i dont seem to find external viewerand oxygen is mentioned 100times could you tell me wich ones is hould have?

maybe u dont care but if u are dutchthen pls speak dutch cuze imdutch to

It's called Oxygen Viewer. It's right under the link to oxygen. The programs actual name is Buldozer.

...and I'm not Dutch, but Canadian.
