New DC-15 Side Arm Blaster (Commando's Pistol)

Post by CodaRez »

Hi!

Its me again, yeesh have I got a treat for you GT.

As you all know, the community alrdy has the DC-15 Side Arm, made by Dragonum. But I always thought there were some things lacking in it.
So I decided to make my own. And to no further ado, I present, my version of the:

DC-15s Side Arm Blaster

Kudos to DarthD.U.C.K's new pistol anim for giving this image.

Ref pic:

No piece of art right? but its close, ain't it? :P

Ok, IMO differences from Dragonum's model are:

-longer barrel

-Glowing parts

-Filled in spaces.

B.I.G_Cookie's texture (showcased in the pic) looks really good, much thnx to him for bringing out the model with a good texture

And well, you have been listening to my jabbering, heres the link then :maulsaber:

CREDITS:
-Me, CodaRez, model and texture ARRANGEMENT and some details.
-B.I.G Cookie, for improving my texture greatly as the alternative(or maybe main :wink: )
-Google and texture websites, for providing some of the base metal textures.
-RepsharpShooter, DMI Prefabs metal, which was the base metallic texture for the barrel. His Meshtool allowed glow too
(I DID edit it, but mostly in the context of adding stuff on it and altering brightness levels, I can't really
edit texture structure *i.e. scratches mark etc. that make metal, "metal"* still, I am REALLY SORRY if this is rude,
as I didn't ask for permission)
-Mav, who told me to make and sketch the texture myself, which is the basis of what I did.
(It really does look better, thnx! Sry if it looks pathetic though! *braces*)
-Dragonum, who made the original DC15 Side Arm for the BF community, and in esscense, beat me to it. I used his
model for some ref too.
-Pandemic. <end comment>
-RC, I took LOTS of refs from it, and it is where THIS gun originally spawned from.
-And finally, the exhalted GT community, for dealing with my shinanigans. :D

So, enjoy! :clone: :jango:

Nice work Coda! It's indeed different from the other version. It appears it's a bit bigger?

Hmmm, one vote said Dragonum's is better.

Care to elaborate, whoever? I could use to improve
(On the other hand, anyone can try a hand at textureing this, see first post for more details)

Or is it one of those retarded pranks again :P

if you make a poll, dont wonder when somebody votes for an option you like probably less.....
especially on such a subjective question

i personally cant decide, both pistols have their pros and cons

Ok guys, sry(this is becoming a habit)

But the old link is updated with the models slightly tweaked

Improvements are:

-slightly smoothened back casing

-fixed texture breakage at "ammo indicator"

Again, my humblest apologies. Those who DLed the last one, get this one
(even more sry if the changes don't seem to change anything at all ingame to you)

Poll also removed. Subjective question :P

Wow, I have to say.......

Epic win.
:eek:
I was hoping you would release, it looked good from the start.

Pros:
No disappearing pieces
More model detail
Cons:
Texture is missing a few details
A tad too big

Beautiful model.

Thnx! :mrgreen:

(well the model size fits perfectly IMO, in republic commando you just couldnt see someone hold it. If you need it smaller, just use an option file :yes: )

And as for the texture:
Image

OK OK you may not be able to see the main diff with .jpg's fuzzy quality but trust me, the texture looks a LOT less cartoony than the one I made now.

And Credits goes to B.I.G Cookie for taking the challenge up. GJ mate! :thumbs:

First post updated with a separate link to the new texture. I advise you get it along with the main package. Just replace the rep_weap_dc15side.tga with this one.(this instruction is included in the readme that comes with the alt. skin anyway, jus incase)
If you somehow like my cartoony original version, you can ignore the link. But seriously that may not be the best choice :wink:
