Ok had 2 learn 2 skinmesh but i did a pretty good job (even if i do say so myself)


Thats what I have so far...very very early, i'm gunna skin the whole thing basically and then add detail.
Yes i realise it has square edges

and not chamfered ones, but I dont care. I like blocky guns.

the only 2 advantages about skinmeshing in 3ds is that you dont lose smoothing groups and you get cool coloured bitmaps :>

there is a plugin called "texporter"... it's got a little bit of a learning curve ( about 30 seconds of one...)
looks nice for a lith skin... even more so for a first...
i'de host it

... and at least give it a spin in hlmv...

You can get coloured meshes with LithUnwrap.
File > UVMap > Save...
Then you pick something about coloured lines or something. I always use it as it helps you relate the UV map to the model.

The skin seems a little flat, kinda painted on in some places.
btw saw that colt/oar/ugly-mofo over at the TS forums, ugliest gun ever :x

Yeah that was me post too. Twill be a cool replacement.
Newayz....yeah thats cos its still wip...after finishing the basic skin i'm gunna add more detail.
The reason some of it looks painted now is because most of it is...the front holes aren't skinned, neither is the pipe or the rivet, or the boxes on the diagonal.
