ive been working on this while forums were down its at 3000 polies (dont say it can be done for less i know it can) im not even paying attention to PC
the part with all the holes is 900 polies by itsself

edit/ o and my m9 hawk was on cs nation!!! wooot

looks really good . You still gonna add more detail , or would that make the PC too high?

aye very nice, will this also get skinned?!
and yeah i saw ur pistol! Well done Chrono!! woot!

good job crono u sextakular modeler u

ya im gonna keep giving it detail i dont realy care about PC on this gun i dont realy care if people with bad computers cant run it whoever can run it probably will run it

Looks front heavy

Sweet model... and finally somebody who doesnt care about making it low-poly. Its not like anyone's forcing the people with crappy comps to run it. Oh and yeah, it does look a tiny bit front-heavy, around that grenade launcher (or whatever it is) under the barrel.

Oooo i like, make more detail torwards the back and you have deh winz!

ya im trying to get some nice left and right pics of the back arean but i cant seem to find any thatll help me model if anyone can give me a drawing of it that would realy help (for some reason i model better off drawings then i do with pictures)

That model needs to be singing "I'm too sexy. I'm too sexy for my holster, too sexy for my ammo, I'm so sexy yeah..."

it's nice

If it's for whatever game, what would it be for?

heh nice, looks like the hl high definition mg thing... i like that gun btw any1 wanna conver it for lmg with sounds and sprites?

this is what im aiming for once i get some more details and tweak a few things anyone want to mesh this?

took a little pic of the w model so u know what im talkin about

looks kinda the same.. crappy w model... i think urs is gonna be nice so keep it up!

btw it looks in the pic like that bottom part and the trigger for by the clip is accually connected to where the clip is, but ur trigger guard thing and the grenade launcher thing looks like theyre only attached to the top barrel

here it is 3800 polies of errors/inacuracies/polywaste if anyone wants to optomize or skinmesh or skin or animate or anything let me know

couldnt you just skin in the holes?

awesome job, i would use this

do the polys really strain the computer? or is it the half life engine that is strained?

i know my computer can handle the polys but i always assumed the engine couldnt handle it

it also strains the engine but its got pretty high limits

heheh chrono your lucky I like the m16 w/ m203 or i would have to poke you untill you remove it

I hate those little add on things like scopes/nade launchers that have no use besides ruin poly count, but the m16 is deh only exception

Nice model
But you know what comes next:

NITPICK TIME!
The only thing I can find right now is that your M16 doesnt have a charging handle.

As for the holes, can't those be included in the skin?

Image added for cr@ppyness?

can you get me a better pic of that charging handle?

ARG i just realized i forgot to save it im back about 8 hours of work

Just play America's Army lol

hi-res image
Actually that is M16A2 on that picture. Your is M16A3

Mmh.. If I have enough time I could skinmesh that.

looks nice!

but yeah T-Charge handle is pretty much required on an M-16/M4/all the other variants.
see that thing on the side (forward assist iirc) / what the dude in cs pulls, doesnt actually load the weapon.

make from the underside a nader!!

question: why are the same models made over and over again? take the m16 from FA, its the best, and will be the best forever... or take the one from the custom FA site and convert it to ns. /me personally uses g36e from FA, but for my own use, and i wont release it.

its better to make your own model than converting other peoples.

well, no matter, if ppl like to model the same gun over and over again, its not my prob

eventually ill be using it, when its finished.

the g36 i use on ns, well its short really short..... it looks like my guy has his hand rapped around the muzzle of the barrle... i think he wants to shoot his hand off.. stupid marines
