Author Topic: Weapons in Blockland and thou  (Read 6726 times)

I hate hands. They look awful, wierd, and you cant choose the color of them.
I've got a script idea of how to get the choose the color, but I'm not saying.

I like the hands. They can look fine if modeled right. You have shows us all the failed attempts at trying to put hands on the guns, except for the Gauss Rifle who's picture looks off.

If I didn't know any better myself, I say you put the image of the Gauss in mid reload over a picture of your player standing there. Your other hand should NOT be in the shot if this were not the case.

The only way for hands to work in blockland is if the entire upperbody-including the head was being animated at the same time, being held a position that would be acceptable in terms of length.

Like bushido's Knightmare pack

I don't know what that means. I just fired and took a picture.

It looks really bad, in my opinion.

I would vote both on the poll if there was that option.
You'd cancel out your own vote.

As for the choice, I don't really care.
Though I do admit in third person the flying hands do look a bit silly if not done perfectly.

people make hands look bad. the guns should be loving smaller or when reloading, the gun should go up, to get closer to the body.

but anyway, you should not be able to carry an ion cannon with one hand. no, it does not look bad ass, it's looks like stuff. i put a huge ass rocket launcher stuff i made on my lego minifigs one day when i was little. it was complete and utter stuff.

Hey, dude. What font?
Also, I love the hands on the weapons.

If you're going to have custom animations at least make your own character model to add as many reloads and stuff as you want.

I really don't know if my opinion here counts or not. I've been playing Blockland since v9-10, and whenever I see hands on a gun, i'm a total-caveman going all like: "Ooooooh! aaahh oooh!"
It also highly depends on what kind of DM i'm playing. Sometimes I just put out the old school guns on my server with no reloading, no hand-animations, just mashing the fire button as reckless as possible, but sometimes I just feel like hosting a more modern gun match on my server with low jumping and all the fancy animations and ammo thingies.

I'm stuck in time.

what are you saying and who are you talking to?

Everything and everyone.

Hands would be good if it made both your hands disappear and have two hand models with the gun so its same color

Hands are just so much trouble for so little eye candy

They aren't really that hard to add model wise.  It's scripting them in that's a REAL pain.
