Metal Gear Rex for Team Foretress 2

juraiknight

So, this is my first time really attempting a TF2 style, so all critiques and advice are welcome. Me and my friend are creating a custom Shadow Moses TF2 map and he needed a Metal Gear. Well......here she is! Still a WIP.

Also, these.

This is also my first time ever putting work out into public other than a classroom setting. Giant step for me.

Haha, yes! I'd love to see this in-game!

As for your question; Upload your pictures to a hosting service and link to them here. Like this:

Yeah, I was a dumb dumb and didn't read the entire paragraph about attachments and pictures lol....yeah a few people got pretty excited when they heard Metal Gear Solid with Team Fortress 2. It's supposed to be covering the last point in a CP map. Once it's done, it should have a collision box so you can use it for cover, jump on it, etc.

It's at about 10k, give or take like 50.

How many tris?
Also looks good!

And thanks! Didn't think I'd start hitting positive remarks till like, way later!

Not sure if 10,000 tri's was a little high for a main prop for TF2 though..

The AK-47 in CS:GO has more than 10,000 tris. I'm sure it would be fine. It's 2013.:icon15:

The main reason for the high tricount in CS:GO, is because they don't use normal maps on their weapons, for whatever reason.

10k is about the highest tri count for a weapon in tf2. As long as you were to build lods, there would be no issue with putting that in a tf2 map.

You can host an image from your dropbox, so if you don't use them I recommend them for cloud storage.

Sweet model. I've often thought a full MGS mod of TF2 would work really well.

edit: missed the wires haha
nice work jurai! how close are you gonna be able to get to this? any chance you could shave a few polies off those teeny tiny cylinders underneath the hood?

juraiknight

Yeah, LOD's might be the way to go. I had a friend who has put stuff in TF2 more than once, and he said it wouldn't be a problem seeing as how people's machines are a lot stronger now than they were when TF2 came out. Even still, no sense in making peoples computer chug for no reason.
