Was bored so i thought i'd give modelling weapons a go. This took about 10 mins so it aint that great, i know the textures are really poor too, i just wanted to have a quick go before starting something more detailed, it's a basic long-bladed dagger.

-
not bad for something that took 10 minutes :)
how many polys/tris has it got?
Also, can you get some bigger renders 'cos the one you've got is quite hard to see.
-
Here's another one i took a bit more time on. no texture yet. Oh and i'll check on the polycount and get some renders of the first one.

*edit....fixed proportions somewhat

Try smoothing the blade and the spikes to get rid of that polygonal look. That grip though looks pretty awkward - it makes the whole thing strictly decorative. Using the bevel tool is fun, but I think you overdid it there :p
-
there's a bevel tool? LOL i was just messing on belender
edit: another one i did, much happier with this one.

edit4: started on a sword

edit5:didnt want to add too much to the sword so i just did this

blimey, you could take someone's eye out with that.

Stilletto dagger a la 17th century

edit:another sword, just a quick one

edit2: a basic medieval spear

I was wondering if anyone fancied texturing any of these for me. If so let me know which ones and i'll send the files needed.
-
Would you be interested in modeling some of these as low-poly objects we can use in the game? The triangle count would have to be below 300, but things like spears, halberds (anything but more swords :D), would be nice to have.
-
most ef them are low poly already. but yeah give me a list of what weapons are needed and i'll have a go.
-
No list at the moment, just do something creative and unusual ;)
-
ok, will do. Isn't there some rule about not showing things if they are going in game? if so i can send them somewhere else. I'll look in the "combat" skills tab and see what there seems to be lack of weapons for.
-
I'm trying to get the rule changed :) I wouldn't worry about posting these right now, but if you're really worried, you can always send me a PM or email.
-
Ok that's cool. I'm not too fussed whether what i model goes in game or not to be honest, i just didnt want to do something which u could use (and therefore add more to the game) and post it in here making it un-usable.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/RayvenSylver/flangedmace.jpg)
edit: got a little creative with this one. not sure on it myself

I will have a go at texturing a couple of these if you want :) (not that my texturing skills are particularly amazing - i can UV map everything though and add some detail)
PM the .blend files or post them here =)
-
You should turn off "set smooth" on the blades of the second mace. It will look more natural.
-
Thanks for the advice :) And rast, i'll have a look through the ones i've done and send you a couple.

-
Yum yum! UV map these babies and send 'em over :) You'd have to reduce the count of the club mace though - maybe get rid of the grooves of the handle.
-
Great stuff! Now just make good a crossbow, a short bow and a longbow, and then all that will remain to implement ranged weapons will be the coding! :D

Melee claw weapon, for those times when a pesky tall bugger comes to disturb your drinking with a sword in his hand ;)

and not to leave the magic users out, a crystal wand

offensive weapon for short range,maybe its required:)

Piemont, i'm not sure if you realise but this isnt a thread of things that're goin in the game. I'm just posting pictures of attempts at different weapons. If you want to submit your model to the game i'd get in touch with a developer 'cause it looks pretty nice :)

Dangit, export these correctly and give me an email poke :) Did you get my last message about the .OBJs? For some reason they aren't loading in max. Perhaps some Blender folks here can mention how to correctly export .OBJs so that they work in other applications. These look too good!
-
Just read your message. I'm not sure what i'm doin wrong as i've never used max at all. It'd help if i had max to check the files on before i send them i guess. Anyone with blender have any ideas what i need to change on my options?
-
For the readers/lurkers: issue seems to be fixed now :]
-
Well i'm an idiot and was counting the polys with quads not triangles, so here's a simplified studded mace.
polycount : 286
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/RayvenSylver/studdedmace2.jpg)
if you want to see the beautful original then i'll leave it in the thread, same with all the other ones that follow haha.
polycount : 288
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/RayvenSylver/ironshod2.jpg)
polycount:300
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/RayvenSylver/meleeclaw2.jpg)
polycount: 300
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/RayvenSylver/clubmace2.jpg)
polycount : 216
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/RayvenSylver/blackjack2.jpg)
-
now texture itz \o/ hehe ptobably wont go that fast /o\
-
You texture it :P
Ok nearly modified all of them to be 300 or less now ::)
polycount: 278
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/RayvenSylver/flangedmace2.jpg)
polycount: 300

polycount: 280

i'll have the lochaber done soon, and the warhammer was fine as is thank laanx
edit: and just because i felt sorry for the non violent types ;) a "weapon" for the artist in us all. a simple lute :) (will require detail in texture to look good though i think)
polycount: 116
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/RayvenSylver/lute.jpg)
And what the hell, for the budding young composer a penny whistle :P
polycount: 94

HAMMERS ! HAMMERS ! HAMMERS ! HAMMERS ! \\o//
Great job !
I want HAMMERS !
Oh, by the way, did I tell you that I'm expecting some... HAMMERS !!
... sorry... :-[
-
go to the first page in the thread, there is a war hammer there
-
You texture it :P
Can't do it, not enough data ;P
-
Unfortunately it has a relatively high polycount at 368 but here's a recurve hunting bow.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/RayvenSylver/recurvebow.jpg)
-
Sacrifice the round quality. A small item like that, especially when textured, can look around even if it only has 5 sides.
-
I'll probably just model another bow, that one took all of 5 mins. I'm experimenting with different ways of modelling bows to find one i like. I'm big into archery IRL so i want to do justice to the bow.
-
That bow seemed extremely unusable to me.If i would take it in hand it looked like the string would be at my wrist.And as anyone who has shot a bow can imagine that would be uncomfortable.Other than that though its pretty good.You seem to have a knack for polearms.Especialy loved the highpoly two-sided mace.
Also could you model a lute.Its one of those old guitar like instruments most often used by bards.That would be awesome to have ingame.
-
Already modelled a lute, and actually that bow is unstrung. I dont know if you know but a bow changes shape when you string it. That's modelled on a recurve bow I own which at the time had no string on it :P
-
anyone here works as freelancer weapon modelers ? I have project which requires a good weapon modeler. can earn some $$$ O--)
-
I dont mind the bow actually. if it could be coded in to have mesh changes for like /draw sword and /sheath sword so you can have you sword displayed on your model as sheathed, and of course when you enter a combat stance it automatically draws them. and then /unstring bow
do dwarves in planeshift follow the typical fantasy stereotype of having access to blackpower? if so maybe they can use this:
