c.j. you have been scheduled for termination

[T-808]

well i been wating on two things to happen to start posting on has not happened but the other has and now i feel it is a good time to start posting this mod's progress and show people what me and a few others have been working on in our off time.

 

 

this is not a complete and total convertion....sa 2025 is not going to happen on a map this large but what we are bringing to the table is an aray of the best characters,guns and vehicles from terminator 1,2 and 3 yes i said "and 3". we also have ideas for things that were not in the movies per say or i should say things not of this time but would work as "protoypes technology."

 

the crew so far consist of the following:

 

T-808: team leader and head modeler (vehicles,guns some characters)

grim : weapons

choofa:guns and hosting

quicksilver :gun

soul couragious,TripleAs:skinning

 

beta and tech crew:

still open

character modeling:

still open,t-808 for now.

 

with contributions from Klarnetist and carface aka bigfoot2003

[choofa]

whaw, I didn't know you had this much done nice, except with the c.j. terminator.. his head looks way too small for his body, I mean he looks like one of those doles with their head shrunk.. get my drift? :\

 

=Ch00fA=

[soul_courageous]

he he was woundering when this was gonna see the light of day great work so far.. cant wait ta start texturing some of these bad boys

[T-808]

well big big news...no the t2 tanks not done but almost just as good. spit811 has finaly emailed me and given me the okay to use the truck as well and as always they get the credit for their works so give it up for Spit811 & Pumbars t2 swat van thier work brings one more vehicle up ready for convertion. so thanks guys you work will serve this mod well in san andreas.

 

 

 

this will help for one peice i did not mention in the introduction....i'm looking at making a basic mock up of the cyberdine building for the mod.

 

if we had help i might even look into cyber reserch from t3 to replace one of the airports....but in a big way cyber dine would take less time and effort to get going then cyber research would. so one vehilce ready to roll and as soon as my master skinner has a little time the hearses will be ready too all they need is some pullet riddled skins authentic to the movie.

[rebel_36]

only 1 question, how are going to get the grenade launcher to work "properly"?

 

looks nice so far

[T-808]

@rebel that is a very good question and for which i only have a partial answer for.

 

i read on one site that it is possible to atleast edit the bullet casing that the guns spit out as for the bullets themselves my guess is they are all basicly the same which is where the small problem of amunition comes in as for as astetics are conserned (like my laser mod for the phase plasma rifle i belive if we edit one gusn bullet it will edit them all).

 

in a perfect world the sawed off shotgun would have it's own specail bullet mesh that could be replaced with the grenade cap that the grenade launcher shoots out in the movies and in real life.

 

that much in not yet adaptable so i am not sure how to work around the bullets asstetics yet. but as for the power that much is not as hard to do once a tool like steve-m's all in one edit tool comes out then it's a simple matter of amping up the bullets power to that of a grenade then when you fire a shot it would hit and make things explode like a grenade...but the bullet would not fall like the greande bullet would it will travel for now like a real bullet since bullet physics are not to my knowledge modable.

 

so short answer...we can make it fire simularly to the real thing by replacing the sawed off,we can make it explode like a grenade...we just can't make the bullet look and behave physicaly like a grenade bullet. least not yet .

 

but let me tell you as in the road warrior mod authenticity is at the top of the list...we'll do our best to make things work like they would in the movies. so good question hope this answer gives you and idea of how we'll try to do it.

[choofa]

This deffiantly isn't going to be as good as the rw mod but it is going to be close .

i doubt we will ever be able to, i guess sa is instant hit too except of the projectile guns of course (rocket launcher, nades...)

 

i only hope in sa we will be able to allow the player to hold a certain weapon model and let him shoot another one, or you could possibly just attatch the grenade launcher to a player model, then when the weapon is choosen the gam wouldnt switch the weapon model but the players model, then would use the buddyshot anim to throw nades or packet bombs even tho youd then still need some way to make the nades always being thrown at max range, otherwise itd feel kinda buggered..

 

anyways.. however you try it, gl with it

[T-808]

@rebel thanks for the well wishing we'll do our best si all i can ever say.

 

well since a few of you have told me that you liek the tank but want to see it more finished i am working hard on it while continuing my work on rw. so i got the full tank tracks laid out to form a base. here is the owrk we have done this far.

 

thread side 1

 

 

full base

 

 

once the middle between the tracks is done then it's jsut a matter of building up the body and head then it shoudl be ready to be damaged skined and ready to unleash temporal doom!!!

[soul_courageous]

looking gooooood.... cant wait ta get my hands on this.... better stop learning ta do rust n start learning ta do brand spanking shiny metal.... did ya notice how the terminators never got dirty or rusty???????

[T-808]

well it took all night but i final got the base completley done as well as the turrents.

 

now i know what your thinking...somehting is a miss the colors of the turrent above don't match you current pictures...the carpets don't match the draips what are you trying to pull here?

 

nothing simple answer the origianl turret files got currupted and screwed up when i was first modeling this model so i lost a nights work so in truth once the base was done the rest of the night was compeltely starting to turrets over.

 

so this basicaly means now that the guns and the base are done i just need to build up the body,arms and head.

 

so here is my work so far....and never mind the odd light strema in the picture they won't be in the final model unless i can figure out how to incoporate them for night killing muahahahahahahaha.

 

 

[GRIM!]

looks damn cool!! we got to make the flying air craft too!! they are my favorit machines from skynet. and arnie to

[T-808]

thanks soul and grim and yes the ariel hk form termiantor 2 is next on the list for me to finish when down it will either replace the hunter or the hydra haven't decided which one hovers the best and would serve our evil..um i mean um good yeah good prurposes (good save t-808)

 

tonight i shold be bale to get mroe work done on the tank once she is finsihed and i get the dummys and final inspection done then we move onto the ariel hk....aslo doign the t3 version but much smaller doign it in the r.c. size to make zero's missions seem a little more liek skynet attack.

 

so more to come keep watchign true believers

 

[T-808]

well some pretty good news for our character models. while i won't be addign his name to our porject for a long while now russifactor has told me that after he finsihes up with two projects he promised to make people for before i asked he would be willign to add it to his list around mid summer. which is fine cause alot of our models outside of the donated ones won't be ready till then anyways. so round then we shoudl have some aarnoldl iek terminators ready to go. on the tx front as i siad i have found a ped that will be operfect and take mimimal work to get her done gettign ehr workign in game will be a whole nother story but she will be done on the red suit as for the other two costumes it will be awhile and i will ahve to see if russifactor can do them after he does the arnoldish termiantors. so rejoice some good termiantors will go with these great vehilces.

[Dr. Stupid]

I have no experience with making mods, but here's a suggestion:

Maybe the Hunter could be replaced by the Aerial HKs

Aerial HK pic 1

Aerial HK Pic 2

[T-808]

well thanks dr.stupid (love your sig btw) for the pictures they should help when i finsih off the tank and thanks for the vote.

 

originaly i was going to do the hunter in vice city as an areil hk so i might stick to it in san andreas. thanks for the support on it seem the future

"prototypes" are quickly becoming hte most popular models. well good to heaar it all.

 

big anouncemnt people. TripleAs has joined the mod as a skinner and is also said he is good with buildings so i've sent him to fethc a copy of the t2 dvd and get shots not only for skinning with but also to help him get refs for cyberdine systems inc. building.

 

so he has low free time like most of us but thsi will help lighten the load on soul's shoulders. so welcome abord TripleAs.

Edited May 14, 2005 by T-808

[T-808]

well liek with the road warrior i'm doign some cath up here too the herase(s) both sheered and un sheered form t3 are being skinned as they need only minor adjustments to their txd maps. t2 tank head almsot done body and arms are next.

[BigNekkidSnake]

This is looking good so far, I always saw alot in SA that would be good for a Terminator mod, but I'm only a skinner and wouldnt beable to do it myself. I'd join but you already got some guys and i havent had a lot of time for the comp, and i cant play games on my comp (its f*cked up) so i cant help. Maybe somewhere down the road, cant wait to see the rest.

 

keep up the awesome work.

[Silent Viper]

Dont want to offend anyone ,but expect for the M4 (of the shown weapons only,cant comment on the others yet), the Weapons all suck detail and shapewise

[soul_courageous]

hmmm there LOW POLY and untextured so why dont you shut ya pie hole n wait till the final versions..

[T-808]

oh so sorry that low polly offends you oh great gun master.

 

but if you import some of vice citys weapons you will see that our shape is quite accurate for the weapons we are using so far yes without skins they are unimpressive but a goal of the mod is not ot choak the game up with too many high poly models.

 

besides don't make me post my killzone rifle again i don't need to post high poly work to prove that i can model with the best of them.

 

but at the same time i will look at how much san andreas pc bumps up the poly on their gun models if it's more then we up the weapons counts as needed but when it comes to models less is more espcaily when you have a good skinner on your side.

 

well b.s. ego crap aside the phase plasma rifle will be back in full higher poly detail

thanks to TripleAs determination to skin the orignal model i released for vice city that had no skin on it and tanked a bit because of the no skin thing (great example of a great high poly weapon that didn't do so well in the market despite being movie accurate...skins do make a difference.)

 

anyways more work on the t2 tank but still havign some troubles on some details of the head more when i have shots of it.

[Silent Viper]

 

hmmm there LOW POLY and untextured so why dont you shut ya pie hole n wait till the final versions..

 

Normaly I'm ignoring such childish posts,but in this case,I'm doing it aswell

 

@T808

They might look accurate compared to VC weapons but if you compare them to the real stuff, blocks arent anyway near accurate.

I'm not saying that you should only do über-highpoly models with 50k Polys or something but a good 1500-3000 Count is something more then ok and would rarely crash a machine and most people downloading such mods also once had such 40k Poly cars (that btw look ugly because this über-highpolycrap kinda doesnt fit GTAVC without that blurry textures and with them you wouldnt see the detail anyway )

and know that it didnt lag,so why should a 2000poly gun ?

I'm also not saying that you cant model "higher poly" (what I do isnt even half way highpoly,maybe just highpoly-wastage cause I'm never optimizing but anyway,thats not the point ) but you should actually try it, as such lowpoly crap just sux, with and without textures and a 512x512 texture might be ok ,but it wont help the model a lot and 1024x1024 texture would lag the game more then 50 10k rifles

[soul_courageous]

childish.... why thank you most ppl call me an old git lol...... well anyways I dont see the point in arguing over summut as daft as this, ive got my hands full with these cars.

[T-808]

okay i respect you work there SV so i'm going to try to make this as clear as i can.

 

we have alot of vehicles and alot of people to make and do (a few higheer poly weaposn might not chaok up the works but adding in cars and the higher poly models we will be doing and you get alot more then what the game was made for.)

 

also at gta scale unless you palying on a big screen plasma tv via s video out on your graphics card high poly tends to be a bit mutted without a skin to back it up...i never released my very well done 40 some k killzone rifle because i didn't have a good skin to back it up but it work well as both the shotgun and an assult rifle. the detail just was not that impressive at that scale in-game.

 

i have nothing against higher poly models and as i said i might do some reworking once sa hits and i see what their guns are like..but being a little poly economic can only help imporve graphics especaily for people who don't have 300 dollars for a new graphics card and like me would likely have to run it off the bare min specs which include a 64 mb graphics cards.

 

but anyways this is turning into an argument about nothing and i'll just stop it here by agreeing to disagree with you....their not the pretties models now but without a skin many things don't look so pretty this is not a case of putting a pig in a prom dress.

 

and souls comment were not so childish so much as he was suprised that someone who makes weapons packs would not understand the need for polly economics espceialy for a total convertion mod for a game that litterly has the map runnning for 3 cities all at the same time (almost no load times)

 

oh and bunch of boxes...not all i do is boxes the scoped for the t1 pistols ,jsut for example,is a tube there buddy and some of those "boxes" have 5 side if you were actualy looking at all the models that is (which anyone who uses max knows is impossible to do as boxes can only expand by 2's) i use more the boxes and tubes for my style of modeling.
