I can't wait to actually play around with that. Where is that shotgun from? It's supersexy.

Looks like Crysis.

Exactly!
Best looking shotgun ever IMO

Now if I could get it into the TC as a model instead of a sprite... i believe Noesis does support Crysis' format.

Ok guys you may have noticed I haven't had much time for mapping recently. This year I've only ever worked on mini maps and a small part in the current WIP CBP since I started university. But doing a combined degree with engineering and French is a lot more work than I had anticipated, and I simply have no more spare time these days. So essentially, I have no choice but to retire altogether from Duke mapping. I might continue to lurk around these forums, and I really hope that the community perseveres and continues to churn out new content.

I'd like to wish good luck to the guys currently working on maps; Mia Max, Norvak and DanM on WGRealms 2 (well not really. Get off your ass DanM), all the guys working on CBP 8 and AMC TC episode 2, and anyone else I don't know about or forgot to mention. So have fun everyone, and long live the Duke!

That's too bad, my free time actually shot up when I started at the university.

Well that sucks, but you know you'll get the calling eventually

Good luck with your future and everything.

Huh?? Someone would actually give up Dukeing for a chance at a successful real life.

Good luck Mick.

P.S. get off yer arse DanM.

Good luck with that, Micky. But remember, college doesn't last forever, and it even has breaks between semesters. A few years probably seems like an eternity to you right now, but this community has been around a long time, and it will probably still be here when you have free time again.

You don't retire from The Duke, The Duke retires you.

We'll be here when you decide to crawl back.

Good to know there is a 2nd AMC TC episode in the works

#3401 Posted 31 March 2012 - 09:47 AM

Yeah there is but at the minute it's pretty much just me so don't expect it anytime soon - I'm waiting till I finish the 1.10 patch for Episode 1 before work really starts on it, when that happens I'll try and see if anybody's up for mapping. It might be an idea to wait till after the next version of WGR2 though.

Good Luck Micky, real life needs a break every once and a while too. :wub:

Don't forget about us. Cheers M8T

Trying to make a good skin for pigcop.
I really don't like the original.
What do you think so far?

Well, no offence, but I think the original looks better. It looks like there's an awful lot of colour artifacts in that skin. Looks like film grain. Or like you just added a noise filter or something. And it looks blurry besides that. What all did you do to it?

I have no plans to abandon mapping in the foreseeable future, although I'm kind of grateful for all the 'support' that I received. Hopefully I'll can still make some nice maps over the next few years.

Yeah, I must have posted that at about 12:30am as well so that didn't help. It still counts though Posted Image

Make sure you have the monochrome box ticked on your noise filter. It honestly looks fugly right now.

#3410 Posted 01 April 2012 - 02:10 AM

Well, what about the enforcer?

I don't like both, enforcer and pigcop.
They look to cartoonish and bright.
Do you have hints how to quickly improve the skin?
I don't have much experience with photoshop.

All the models need redoing from scratch. Check out the tutorials thread for some good texture tuts.

It's Ok, though, as I should have both of them done, as well as the Liz Trooper by Monday.

That would be fine :wub:

I just don't like Pigcop and enforcer and I never want to use them in maps because of their look.

Anyway, here's another try

Can you post your edited skin for the pig cop? I think they look good; enforcer needs a little more work but I can commit the pig cop one to the HRP as is.

Mia Max

#3414 Posted 01 April 2012 - 07:16 AM

Of Course.
But you really like the pigcop skin?
It was just a quick edit and I think I can do it much better.
There's also no skin for dead pigcop yet.

Haha, now I get it

@Plagman: Shame you!!!
Just saw your post in polymer thread.

Well, my posts also weren't supposed to be taken seriously (I guess)

#3418 Posted 01 April 2012 - 09:07 AM

Well, I want to be unterstood as serious too.

So, seriously, what do you think about this skin?

#3419 Posted 01 April 2012 - 10:12 AM

I would suggest de-saturating the skin color and apply some texture to it.

I decided to try out a skin tweak myself. This is what I came up with in about 15 minutes. Nothing really added. Just filters and textures.
