Creativity / Re: The new and improved 3D model topic!

« on: December 23, 2009, 09:24:17 PM »

My first go at making something from my head and not basing it off anything in a long time, i want to know if its any good, and if not, how should i improve it?

I like it, the only thing I see is the raised part on the handle looks a little crooked though maybe evening that out.

personally,(probably since i live in the blazing desert) i would rather have a few extra weeks in the winter to spend on vacation/ with my family, and have school extend into the summer rather than get a week off starting Christmas eve.

Yeah me too the summers here are pretty bad to not too mention I live in the middle of no where so theirs nothing to do anyways :P, plus I love Christmas time : D

I don't think the extra day would really make that much of a difference especially that close to break all the schools I went to didn't do much right before break. Most schools assuming you live in the US have to go a set number of days anyway so if you didn't have it that day it would extend a day into summer. But like Hugams said it probably had nothing to do with your principle. Also I've been off for a while now :P

When you see a story about it go to the right of the post and a [Hide] button should appear click that and it will go "Hide so and so" or "Hide Farmville"

Always remember the G-Mod Genocide of 2007 : (

Anyways I don't really think there's as much of a connection between video games and violence as people think. I think for the most part people who do nothing but play video games suffer more from not socializing than from the game, the same thing could apply to a lot of other things. But when people like this do turn violent a game where you go around shooting people is an easy place to put most of the blame.

Some forums you have to be a member to use search features or view profiles a lot of times I register just for that reason. I don't remember but it might have been this way in the past.

Yeah wedge gave me some really good ones a while back for Constructor

These are the tutorials I posted earlier:

I found the tutorials here:

It's very likely you'll find lots of more useful information there, so be sure to browse it.

Also I think that by default blender has a script that exports ".map" files, at least I don't remember adding the extension myself.

Here you can try this, I was almost sure that hammer exported straight to ".map" though : /

MapZone2
A really nice node based procedural texture generator. Good for making tilable textures for interiors and terrains.

It's possible, I'm pretty sure you can export ".map" file types in hammer and open up and export that to a ".DIF"  in Constructor or QuArK. You might also be able to simply drag the file onto the actual command line program "map2diff.exe".

This looks really good, it's nice to see someone put so much time in effort into their add-ons.
