JTF-2

hehe . can't wait. this is gonna be realy cool. *plus it'll be the first time my skins have been in a released mod! *

there are a few ways. The one i use is fairly simple. 1. make a circle, fill it with some kind of background colour (or even image if you want) 2. mess around with it. Try different filters, (film grain etc) 3. The most important part is the lens flair. Go to "filter/render/lens flair" Play around until you get it just the way you want it. Hope this helps. It's just a general guide. maybe someone can give you a more in-depth description...

congradulations!

University??? I'm reading them for some background research on an essay I have to write (for my grade 10 english class). If you read them, so many things in sooo many other books/movies/stories come into place. I would recommend everyone who hasn't already read them, read them. Everything just becomes much more...meaningful...???

i've heard of all of them, we have to do a thing on ancient civilizations as part of IB... ruin, i'm reading Illiad and Odyssey now too. It's amazing how modern they are.

ohh man, that was 2 lucky gusses in row this can't last forever... 13/16

WOW! nice job Marcinko. Thanks for doin all the hard work. PS, i'd love to see it in game....

thanks for the tip about the camo paint. I tried to do something similar but was using a totally different way. It didn't turn out as good as yours. Thanks, your help is invaluable PS, how long have you been at this mod thing anyway?

! that looks prefect! man, this is gonna be one sweet mod

hehe...you think our government in all it's wisdom and power would spend the money on somethings that benifits Canadians... just my $0.02

ya, ty Zij...some of us players need that confidence boost... aww well, i'll have to resign myself to the fact that DK and XO are just much smarter than I am. I'll just have to live with it...

pot... sweet! 100 pages!

lol, sorry for not posting answers lately. i'm currently 11/14. those last few were a little easy Zij, you don't have to be nice, let us have it...

! Wonderful! thank you Earl. that has just made my week! (lol, yes it's sad, but the little things in life are what it's all about... )

I think that would be Rocky and Co.

Argyll, I'm really sorry to hear about what happend to you. It is very unfortunate. I'm just glad that you have decided to keep on with your mods. It is a HUGE boost to the community. Thanks for all your hard work. It doesn't go to waste.

Earl, are you (or someone else) going to make the Parker Hale C3A1? It's such a great rifle. thanks.

excellent! thanks Earl. btw, nice site.

There is a newer version of the .rsb plugin. (I think on the IT CD?). I think that one let's you save it without giving you that "power of 2" stuff and gives you the option when you save to "generate mip-mapping". You could get the pluggin and then just open up the textures in PS and re-save them with mip-mapping. hope this helps.

I like it. Makes the forums look real classy like . These are the best done forums i've seen on the net. keep it up all

excellent. thanks both of you. . That is a really good trick to know. and Earl, when you weld vertices, it's like getting rid of half of them right? your not stuck with the hidden pollys are you?

umm, it could if you want it to. It shouldn't be that hard to do if you give me a good pic. (and RS likes the idea) RS where are you???? This isn't really my mod Magnum, i just did a couple of skins.

dude! i guess i shouldn't really be surprised it is Earl's after all. @Earl. I've got a technical 3dsm question for ya: On the stock of the weap, how did you get that extra line running along the top/bottom/front? I've always done it by extruding the poly's on top but then i get 2 lines running along. I hope you understand what i've just said...

not real sure about this, but i think to get all the bits of your texture into one file you need to UVW unwrap it. I'm sure i saw a tut on this somewhere. I think it was on one of the sites that an ex-GR dev did. It wasn't Piggyson, it was a new site. DOH! now i can't remember the name. check the GR news page, scroll down a bit. The site was a news blurb IIRC

wow! that's the best one of Nishi's weaps i've seen in a while. Normally his aimpoint's look a odd. look's a lot like the gun from Navy SEALs 2
