    hi.
    long time no updates.

    i want to destroy mark7 vipers. i see a distance shot with dozens of vipers beeing shot at
    regular army, so no fastpacks or whatever.

    so here's my mk7 so far.

    7135 tri, and 2k maps. diffuse spec and normal.

    wow this is great wanna see more jajajajaja great modeling and love the color scheme

    hey aylaa.
    nope, its not that great, but for what i want to do, its more than enough. only close ups of it will be in a launch tube with lots of motion blur.
    only thing it miss is a cool battlestar name on the side.

    heres more pics with some decent materials.

    Sweet work!
    I was half hoping to see Matt Santos' lettering on the side of that Viper!(From The West Wing):

    LTCOL Matt Santos
    "Badger"

    Nice Viper :thumb: Even for a "filler" model it's looking very good ! I like the colours of it too.

    now i have technicians.
    i think orange ones repair and prep the ships, blue are for specialties in some things, and yellow are in charge of the traffic.
    its the same model as the pilot, with new textures.
    there's still some skinning problems also.

    The dorsal on your Mark 7 looks a little small, to my eye.

    ohhh great!!! the only thing to correct is the cockpit segmentation, other than that: top notch! :)

    hi :)


    not much work this summer. im learning fumefx.
    i'm also modeling the gun for the mk7 (that is still unarmed), and a paintball training gunpod.
    i'll see what i can do for the segmentation ;)

    anyone else has issues merging a pilot into a scene ?
    max rip my model apart when i merge it. i think the problem lies somewhere in the skin modifier, but i dont understand why.


    anyway, here's 2 clips featuring cool things :D

    hi folk !

    today i sticked a gun turret on the 2 seater viper, so the copilot doesnt get bored.
    i have construction workers in my home, to repair the earthquake damages. so i'm home too this week. i miss my office's 8core. this is a 4years old laptop :s

    Sweet. How is that cannon aimed?
  • L2KL2K0 Posts: 0Member
    there is a crapy camera just under the gun for "precise" aiming..
    the copilot controls it with his joystick.
    movements are limited. its not a 360A° turret. theres about 100A° of freedom in both horizontal and vertical.
  • BarBar171 Posts: 0Member
    Brilliant. Sounds like a great idea.
  • L2KL2K0 Posts: 0Member
    along with the elintpack.
    an attempt to balance the huge manoeuvrability handicap. but i think the elint is simply hopeless.

    It would be fine in space. But in atmo it would be a disaster...
  • colbmistacolbmista2 Posts: 0Member
    nice a 3 barrel turret would look better tho
  • L2KL2K0 Posts: 0Member

    You might want to add a feedbelt and a return belt for that cannon if it's the spinning kind.
  • JanJaapJanJaap0 Posts: 0Member
    For the feed just refer to this: image
    (It's the feed system designed for rah 66 commanche)

    Another thing, in the Apache attack helicopter the chain gun is slaved to a motion controller the gunners helmet. Maybe an idea

    hi folk !

    long time, no new viper toys.

    so here's a snipepack. meant to hide somewhere in space, and then shoot from a distance huge bullets.
    same way it works with the others. you just strap it on a regular viper and its good to go.


    the right pod is the amunition pod, and maybe some lead in it to balance the weight of the left huge gun.
    left pod is an optical telescope with a crosshair on it. (remember itA’s lowtech)
    the thing straped under the gun is meant to be som kind of laser sight, but i dont know if i like it.

    it's meant to be specific for the 2 seater. the gunner takes the controls of the rifle while the pilot drive his plane, or if he hides somewhere, he can watch youtube. but i dont have my 2seater right here right now. its on a dvd somewhere.

    very cool!
  • BarBar171 Posts: 0Member
    Maybe better to have some thrust pack on the right side to counter the force generated by the weapon. Like a spurt from an RCS quad on the ammo pack.
    But it looks VERY cool.
  • meugen06meugen06334 Posts: 5Member
    It looks cool,but impractical.The recoil of the gun will destroy the Viper for sure and the weapon it's not balanced right.
  • colbmistacolbmista2 Posts: 0Member
    if you read his post he explained how he is goign to balance the waight also the recoil in space prob wouldnt effect it much other then pushing the whole viper backwards thus what bar suggested witht eh thrusters
