Greater Ice Blade, Ice Blade.

What?

I just want to know whats happening with them...

If its your job, are they in yet?

 

[Thothie]

No one has linked up a .mdl file for them, so no.

I canna do anything with incomplete models but look at the screen and cry about how kewl it would be to have said model in game.

Theres some .mdls for you.

 

[Thothie]

Got it, but:

- Please use correct sleaves (see current weapons/swords/giceblade_rview.mdl)
- Please do not use external textures (adds +1 model)

I can fix the latter, but not the former. :/

wow you murdered the texture arrangement on the greater ice blade.

 

[Gaz]

As far as Im aware, Orochi has allready added them to his p_weapons file

 

[Orochi]

Not yet, but...I will.

 

[Thothie]

TBH I think the current blades look better, although I think it's mostly the sleaves that are making the difference.


Plus the new ice blade seems to have no texture on the blade at all (I dunno if it's just stretched to hell or what.)

 

[Gaz]

What the hell, its not supposed to look like that

 

[Gaz]

Right, Orochi, I've got fixed mdls done, I also tweaked the chrome effect, you can't see it much in mdlviewer itself, but ingame it looks good

I'm making the smds for the view model now, I'll zip and upload for you all ready to be added to your large qc

Changing where you look at the blade, gives nice reflective looks

 

[Vomica7]

omg its gorgeous.
im glad i had ISS


lesser ice blade has an origin error.
i can see my own back

 

[Thothie]

Much better... But yeah, origin is off on the lesser one. Also both blades could use more texture on them (just kinda plain transparent, especially on the lesser).

If you find the $origin fix offset, please post it. I dun want to have to depend on Orochi's method, since we can't reproduce it.

 

[Gaz]

Is it ok if I just use the same bone setup for lesser as the greater?
Includes animations etc

I only used the old lesser bones, just incase there were problems, but heh, there are problems (greater has a nicer ref to work off)
I think the problems were from older edits, there were some funky bones

 

[Shurik3n]

$origin 5.5 -7.0 -1.0 seems to do the trick.

 

[Netrogor]

Hurrah! I'ma check this out in-game really quick here, might even get caught up & play for awhile

 

[Gaz]

Updated the zip file, with newer source files, as well as old.

Lesser blade should now be fixed. As for the blade texture Imma work on it some more

 

[Orochi]

Guys, if it helps, I use Kratisto's HL model decompiler v1.2, it comes with Milkshape. My origins never seem to fuck up when I use it. Avoid using the stock decompiler that comes with MS3D or even the one in Jed's.

 

[Netrogor]

To celebrate the release of these nice Ice Blade models... I say MiB becomes a living target in-game, with PvP on, and lets us kill him & try to loot him... albeit it is cruel & sploitful... I know everyone will have fun doing it

 

[The Man In Black]

Freezing sphere + AoE spells > you. Besides, what do I care if you try to do that. If I'm getting gang banged, I'm just gonna DC :roll:

 

[Orochi]

Plus, looting corpses no longer works.

 

[ceriux]

get rid of the see thru ness

 

[Gaz]

But Ice isn't opaque, I was thinking more so of getting rid of the chrome, That will look better, and then more Icey through a texture
