Cause And Effect - M16 render

[Stigmata]

Well here is our third weapon render for Cause and Effect. I couldn't post the first two on the forum, don't ask why. But anyway this is our M16 model, done by Hitman:

What do you think?

 

[dawdler]

I'm not an expert, but the front part looks wrong... Though I dont care, its neat

Only big problem I have: Can we PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE have something other than the M16 all the time?

 

[spin]

I think it could be a lot better for 2600 polygons. The receiver has quite a few innaccuracies and several areas close to the player's view that could use some detailing and rounding. I can't really say much else about it because of the angle of the render, but I think it could be a lot better with some more work and attention to detail. Perhaps a wireframe shot could help us see where all of those polygons went.

 

[SidewinderX]

looks good overall, but the barrel is a bit too think, could use some slimming down.

 

[Archangel]

the handle...please, the handle...

 

[Sgt.Igneri]

What M16 is this based off of?

 

[SidewinderX]

Well, the players hand will cover the handle, so he shouldn't wast to many polys there.

 

[!-fgdf-!]

use more chamfer and multires modifier

 

[mindless_moder]

dont u guys think it looks a bit short hmm maybe just the angle.

 

[HiroProtaganist]

looking at it i would say the cooling chamber could be reduced to a 8 or 10 sided cylinder. the handle, even though it will mostly be covered by the player hand, needs to be at least a little rounded. the holes in the muzzle break look a little to square. the stock needs to be redone. the m16's stock does not come straigh off the receiver back. you kinda have this little fold that runs the length of hte stock and it should be completly rounded. the point where the front sight meets the cooling chamber looks off. the front sight rises straight off the barrel and is not connected the cooling chamber as it appears in the render. could you post some other angles. and perhaps a wireframe so we can see the belly of the beast.

personally the grip at the front is wrong to me, there should be more robust, if you get what i mean, prob dnt but :x

and for 2600 polies it does look a bit basic, a wire frame would be nice though, and other wise good, but a bit square

 

[Sgt.Igneri]

yeah the forearm and handgrip needs some work. Also, it looks like an M16A2, most mags are curved for it, not straight. Only like 5 round mags are straight.

 

[Zer]

Dude doesnt look like an accurate M16 at all :/

Consider your self corrected

not all m16 mags are curved, the 5 round mag is straight, but also extremly short...

while, you are right the magazine on this one should be curved as toof my knowledge

 

[killarman]

u shuld try to make a weapon most peaple dont know about then they wont complain

 

[HiroProtaganist]

no one is complaining. hell half my models get ripped to pieces but thats good because it points out things the modeler missed. bleive after you stare at mesh for a while you start to miss little errors it helps to have someone point them out.

 

[zapher]

Just for the record, it's suppose to be a M16 A2 !

And we know it's not his best work but he hasn't worked that much with it, donno even if Hitman wanted stigmata to put them up, but i guess so.

 

[mindless_moder]

it really isnt bad we are just being picky bout small lil things that the average gamer wouldnt even notice ingame. its all because its a realism mod like it has to follow a spoecification.

 

[SidewinderX]

mindless, shhhhhh, you used the "r" word

 

[Stigmata]

mindless, I gave Hitman that link to the weapon ref. forum, and he's remaking it as an m16a2 (not just any old m16, mind you ). He is also redoing his Enfield SA-80 which has only been posted on our website. As soon as he's finished I'll get a few renders from him.

And with CaE we are going for as much realism as you can squeeze into a zombie mod so we want the weapons to be as good as they possibly can

 

[Pizza]

those ROUNDS (ie bullets) look a bit wierd?

and this was not edited to be polite by stone, so shhhh

 

[mindless_moder]

lol stones really hard at work now .

 

[Fragger]

You're thinking AK 47/74.

 

[mindless_moder]

fragger wht exactly do u mean by that its an m16a2 where does ak47 come into the pic ?
