No. Incorrect. Autosmooth will always smooth faces who are within the set angle you enter. It just doesn't work properly on a more complex model.

How am I wrong? My method is completely valid. Both my way and your way accomplish the same thing. The only difference is I manually remove shading while you use the autosmooth tool, which rarely works correctly. It's best to do smoothing manually using individual groups.

You really can't. sketchup is more for architectural design than it is for organic things.

Seven. While I'm at it I'll just link you guys to my folder. Everything in there is mine, save for the pictures with a grunt and Master Chief. I was just messing around with posing. The laser gun isn't mine either. That was given to me by someone who ripped it from Goldeneye for a mod. I just put in some details and stuff.

And here's a few pictures of stuff I made for Halo PC.

I'm pretty sure Ephi will be a prick to almost everyone in the community at least once, if he can manage it.

The prick isn't Ephialtes. As far as I see, he just gives honest critisizm on your work. If everyone told you your models are super duper 100% awesome how do you expect to get better? You'll still model the same sub-par meshs over and over again. I'm not targeting anyone specific, I'm just giving insight as to why Ephialtes may come off as a prick to you.

Anyway, to get back on topic I suppose I'll post something of mine.

It's hilarious how you used errors in the geometry to try and prove your innocence, when those errors came with the model you downloaded. I downloaded the turbosquid model and took a look. It had the same errors. Nice try.

They were not present in the original picture, but when I looked at the newer one you posted, I noticed it was the other side.

To brand me with a false accusation of deliberately breaking faces is silliness, I wouldn't go rooting through half a thousand folders just to find a working .ms3d to break.

My accusation is not false, and laziness does not account for an exact copy of someone else's work.

Pay attention to the obvious differences.


There are no obvious differences, there are obvious similarities. I'v seen this same model try to get passed off as someones own work at other forums. I know he didn't make this.

And the broken faces can be explained by you doing that after I brought up the fact the model isn't yours. Besides, the coplanar faces there weren't present in the original picture. As for "replicating the model", why would you do that when you can make a better one from scratch with some decent references?

He could have modified it.

That doesn't make it his model when he claimed it is.

If you look at the models...

The upper indent on the linked model ends right above the button below it. On Monty's, it stops short a little bit. A few other proportions are different, too.

Oh and Monty's is in MS3D and the other one is 3DS.



The proportions are the same, and the small details are also identical.

I think not. The model on Turbosquid was uploaded in February of 2006. Monty posted "his" on February of 2008. He also registered sometime in 07, and I'm assuming he picked up modeling during his time here.
