Props to FLOATER-TWO for the tint-help you have lent to many people in the thread!

Nice thread Haxxer

An update on the mercs and some extras.
Right now I'm sort of working on fixing up the mercs, fixing some of the random faceposing and adding a few extra skins here and there.

As an extra been working with floater two on porting the Partisan armour. (seen on wasea, and present in me1 with various different skins) Plus he's working on a reskin of the partisan to go along with the new Asari spectre - they're not the same armours, but close enough.

This skin and head is pretty temporary to be honest.

[Haxxer]

Nice work.

I just added skingroups to the Praetorian:



Yeah, it looks like shit, nothing a fast Photoshop can solve:

[Cpl. Combine]

I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite thread on the citadel, awesome job guys, keep it up!

[Flubadoo]

Do any of the guns have correct bone positions?

[the-dutch-guy]

I like Mass Effect.

As far as I know, none of the weapons have bones at all.

[Haxxer]

They do, but only for animations

[Korro Bravin]

FUCKING WINDOWS 98!!
So uhh, quick question, whenever I compile my Normandy prop, it flips shit and deletes the interior, any idea why? (Will ask in apwns thread as well...))

have you tried reimporting via psk or md5? rarely it can have minor glitches

[Haxxer]

[plasmid]

lol I love those little guys

hey does anyone know much about making displacement maps? I wanted to do one for the drinking glasses

[Cpl. Combine]

oh god yes a Volus.

[Ekalektik_1]

The volus has got to be my favorite alien. Great work on everything, I can't wait to see what's next!

That looks to me like the volus ^^ The "Biotic Master" (or something on those lines, the one I got Zaeed to deck).

(Yes the have phongs, self-illumed, etc but they didn't showed up in MDLViewer, fyi.)

Both males and females.

Huh? All you'd need for the drinking glasses is a normal map and the refract shader.

A great wind; a great biotic wind.

ah, which refract shader would be good for glass?

Ah, yes, the "Biotic God"! An "immortal" Volus, who sniff the "Red sand". We have dismissed that claim.

[Haxxer]

Ah, yes, "Councillors". Assumed useful politicians that always confirms Shepard's discoveries. We have dismissed that clam.

[Taggart]

The council? I delete data like those on the way to real errors.

[the-dutch-guy]

Niftu Cal! You're the best Haxxer.

[Haxxer]

Thanks, I try :D

I released the Praetorian now, if you guys noticed. I'll probably get the Volus' out tomorrow or perhaps tonight, depending on when I finish the poster

Edited:

This just in!

I just released Kasumi Goto!

Great post!

[Ekalektik_1]

Y'know, this makes me want a Volus squadmate in ME3.

DEPLOYING *HNNNK* HIGH *HNNNK* IMPACT *HNNNK* SHO-*HNNNNNNNNGH*

oh god it'd be amazing

[Engineer_Rus]

Maybe, it's a stupid question, but is it possible to make... hm... eyelids of Legion movable? Like on picture.

[Haxxer]

Not impossible, but useful? Not really.

[FloaterTWO]

It'd just be faceposing, pretty much. Having them as flexes would be pretty sweet.

[plasmid]

liken the kasumi model

I don't know how about other people, but for me it will be useful.

Just...Refract. I dunno if there's a more updated shader that Valve implemented. I think I remember them talking about one in the Episode 1 commentary, but I dunno what it's called.

Those fingers need some serious fixing - Shephard model.

[Haxxer]

Did you rotate the bones?

[plasmid]

Haxxer posted:

how should I rotate them? manualy? cause when I do the bone turns out to be much larger then the finger


also doing some props from sheps cabin

[Docnfoid]

Wow. These models are truly epic. I wish I had found this thread before I made my (mostly) Mass Effect based music video (click the little YouTube icon under my name if you're interested)... I coulda used a lot of these. Heh.

I'm curious, is there a way to get your personal Shepard?
