Alright,I've been watching Ghost in the Shell recently,and it's awesome.

I'd appreciate if someone could make one of those spider-robots known as Ta/U/Fu chikoma with the following abilities:

W: Forward
S: Backward
D: Strafe right
A: Strafe left
Spacebar: Jump
Mouse1: Fire machineguns

It would be even better if it had a wall-walking scheme,similar to the Gravity Jeep.

Thank you.

How about you post pictures. I am sure more then half of the community doesn't know what you are talking about.

UCHIKOMA:

FUCHIKOMA:

See how they all have small "arms" ? They are actually machine-guns.

the "Tahikoma looks wierd,
the uchikoma looks actually pretty cool though,
but the fuchikoma just made me go "FUUUUUUUUUUUU--"

So,who's going to be the hero to create that colored spider that can walk on walls,strafe,jump and shoot?

Zephyrs · July 23, 2009, 12:54:57 AM

I remember Ghost in the Shell. I used to watch the anime.

I also played the PS2 game. Tachikoma was like rape in the form of a robot. I think it'd be a nice vehicle.

cam64DD · July 23, 2009, 10:29:13 AM

Yeah,I tell ya,it'd be awesome to have ta/fu/u chikoma battles.

Going up with the wall,then jumping all the way down and firing the guns.

And btw,if anyone's making this,the player shouldn't be visible when inside the ta/fu/u chikomas. I mean. No head out like the tank.

EDIT: Btw,idk if this is really possible,but i'd be really glad if the spiders had AI. I mean,in the manga/anime and movies,they had AI. I took a look at that AIwheeledvehicle thread...and judging from it,I don't think it's possible...but if it is,at least try to make it with an AI! With um,simple commands,like,just following the owner,and shooting at anyone that attempts to hurt the owner.

EDIT2: Y'know,the main behavior of the vehicle would be sorta like the gravity jeep. except it strafes. and jumps. and fires two machine guns.

it could climb but not walk on them like spiderman, it is not currently possible to make your character flip while still having control over it, let alone walk on walls.
that would be epic though, seeing a huge spider robot climb up a huge tower about to assassinate someone.

I like the Tachikomas more, it also reminds me of the Halo Custom Edition map Hugeass

Muffinmix · July 23, 2009, 01:58:22 PM

I started modeling the Haw200 scorpion tank and the Armed Suit from the anime not too long ago, was definitely going to make the Tachikoma as well just because they're my favorite sentient mini tanks :3

No promises on any releases or working concepts though, all I can say is I was waiting to figure out a way to cloak models and I can now so that prompted me to continue modeling them. The scripting involved would likely stop me in my tracks once I get to testing so you probably won't be seeing this stuff come from me.

Haw200 tank

Armed Suit

Another reason I like these is they're very simple shapes so the triangle count on them would be quite low. I could texture in the tiny details if I want but I'd like to keep them as blocko as possible.

Switch12 · July 23, 2009, 03:29:15 PM

yeah looks cool like a mech but its strange

cam64DD · July 23, 2009, 08:25:32 PM

MadMitten

Well,It doesn't need to flip...it could work just like the gravity jeep. It just needs a different model. And guns. And strafe abilities. And jump.

Muffinmix

If you manage to bring my dream to life,you'll be my hero. And yeah,tachikomas are awesome.

agree

I remember seeing these (tachikoma's and Haw200's) in the "Hugeass" Halo CE map.

Man those were alot of fun, especially with the cloak ability initiated by crouching in the tachi's.
