Nick Name: Precter ™

\______

Description/Story:
After Reversed-Engineering the Convent weapons such as the Carbine and Plasma Rifle the
UNSC was able to create a three barrel weapon, that fires a purple contradicted plasma-injected projectile that has decent penetrating power for light to medium armor.
The reason for three barrels is that when it only had one, it would melt the barrel from the massive amount of heat given off by the projectile, now they use three barrels and a high powered magmatic field to keep the projectile from becoming to close the barrel or other electronics in the weapon, but because the power cells has such a high out put of power in such a small time, they also become very hot, and because the UNSC couldn't just add a huge Liquid Nitrogen cooling system to the weapon with out it having to be mounted, they just made a auto release valve for the massive heat to just spew out... it wasn't the best idea because if you were next to the gun's heat release, your face would just burn clean off... this is why only Spartans and highly trained ODST are allowed to use this weapon.

I would recommend not posting a picture of the model with a texture until you UV map it to actually use that texture. It looks bad without a proper UVW map.

Agreed

You should add a couple planes to it so you can UV map those planes to be like electricity jumping across the points like the plasma rifle.

I was wanting to add like an Electric spark around them, as an idle every once in a while it would arc, then when it over heats, it would arc a lot.

On the model itself, i think you should connect those outer slab pieces (flat rectanlges) together, then maybe either model or bump map/bitmap it tolooke like it has grooves going around those ;)

ask click16 to tell out with the weapon shader, he does a good job ;)

Also, just an FYI, most of my weapons are in the 100s of poly, i do know my ak47 is around 300 poly, but im not sure what the limit is. I would keep it under 500 poly. but i guess test and find out :?

< ~500 for a 3p, < ~4000 for a 1p

why can the FP have 8X the poly??
oh well... i do need to work on the FP model as well, i wish i had someone to help me with the model/UV
That's the main thing that needs most work.

Also, i'm closing the poll,
the weapon will fire out of 1 barrel at a time, this is also never been done before, but i think i can do it.

Are you gonna try and make like maybe 3 seperate muzzles?

Also i could help with the model and UVW mapping ;)

most likely it should work just fine, i will have to look into some things...

And that would be great if you could help me make it, also, i'm going to try a other model, if you want to add anything, AIM me or post here.

I might be able to. I have Max 2009 so I could probably do it.
