Of course smoothshading doesn't add vertices, but splitting off does. And that's the key to good smoothshading in my opinion. I'll post pictures to explain that later...

Oh, I see.

I just wasn't thinking. I understand.
I rarely smooth shade

On this example you can see very good the difference and what I mean.

Without smoothshading

Smoothshading done wrong

Smoothshading done right

All singe parts the scope in picture 3 consists of.

I simply cut the scope into pieces. I made cuts everywhere where I want to have "edges" in the smoothshading. As you can see in picture 2, it looks like the surface has no edges.
When doing this, it can happen that the vertex count incereases very fast. Thats why I count 656 vertices with, and 550 vertices without smoothshading.

I think its good without smoothshading honestly.

Cut is k right?

A pipsqueak machine pistol I modeled.

The machine pistol's big bro, the Assault rifle. Bathe in it's genericness!

These are pretty rushed, as they were mostly modeling practice and I'm too much of a lazy bum to learn Torque and make my own weapons.

:O MODEL OFF!

Who wins?

Na thats cool, reminds me of the PP220 or whatever it is..

Seems rather simple though, and rushed..

Yeah, it's really rushed. It was mostly a practice model. I like yours, the grip and the sights are neat.

I need to get my dam exporter working >:O

Otherwise this model fails D:

Got the single hand held gun working though, with spread.

Gonna try to make it work with Rots zombie ammo system..

Also need to up damage

Anyone know how to fix a glitch i've been having, The right gun fires, but the left gun doesnt in akimbo form D:
