[FONT=Tachoma,Verdana, Arial]Hi guys ![/FONT][FONT=Tachoma,Verdana, Arial]I started learning Max3 yesterday and here is my first low polycount model done with it...
I skimmed through a few old posts. Seems like so long ago. Amazing how well known this community is, considering how difficult the forum link was to find on the old front page. I remember the Q3 PPMs. Mods were fun.
cool!!!! I wish I could see the images that are missing. Piors (and maybe others) development well documented from first models and now when I look at his current work it always make me go wow!
have to look trough those threads and see what i find :P
Haha Vig thanks for the link
I typed alot back in the days! Guess it was the black and green excitement!
I eventually got to meet the comic book artist behind the design of that character, that was way cool!
I didn't find the big green until late 2002 back then I was hanging around cold fusion (until scarecrow gave it over to the devil) and HL mod community.
Looking at the awesome models in the archive its hard to believe that, dare I say it, they were so basic. Hard to texture with shadows and such, and the silhouettes were cool, but how have models become so damn complicated in a relatively short space of time?

This is really nostalgic. I remember that homer simpson model.
And the tutorial section is where this started! (at least for me..)

No. No one wants Homer in Quake anymore.

I'm surprised how many old names are still floating around and even moved on to do some pretty big things.
