Bumping the thread doesn't really seem worth bugging the admins for at this point, so I'll just toss this here.

A few screenshots of some models I've edited for Colony 42, poorly put together courtesy of my lack of image editng skills :P

Of special note is the shotgun, which I reanimated thanks to gearbox rigging the stock on their default HD model. It now gets flipped up into proper usage position when drawn, and goes back onto the frame when holstered. Looks damn nice ingame.

Maps on the other hand, have not being going so quickly. I just can't seem to get motivated to map for anything at all, let alone this project I've been doing since late '08. I need to learn how to map at a decent speed.

Mapping can be a pain sometimes when it comes to new ideas. All I can recommend is playing other mods and getting ideas from them. If your mod is set in space then I highly recommend the chapter "Cyan" from reissues. That's what's inspiring the labs in The Core at the moment.

I'm still looking forward to this though. Goldsource has a special place in my heart. :P

Which reminds me, I have to remind you about those lines I sent you a while back. I know you have much more on your plate than I do, so there's no rush, but I want to make sure you haven't completely forgotten.

That shotgun. Do want.

I could probably get it uploaded at some point if you'd like.

Yes. I can also give you a better model to replace the leftmost model in the middle row.

Those look nice...

Joe: You've got a community-made dead barney model I can hack that head onto? Sounds good to me, the less Gearbox-made NPC parts, the better.
I'd like to get that shotgun model to you, but Game Front is being uncooperative on my default connection, my highspeed bandwidth is capped out for the rest of the month, and I don't really have any other hosting options to speak of. I'll try again later.
Striker: Thanks!

I just looked at your thingie on Valve wiki, never knew there were mods on there! =)

Do you have a webpage with more media on it? also i would think you'd have a link to that or your moddb page ore something in your profile?

The (outdated) page on the VDC is basically the only thing on the mod outside of TWHL. I never got around to making a profile for it in MODDB, and I don't currently have my own website. There's really not a whole lot of media for the mod. (Hell, there's barely a mod!)

<runs to read original thread again for more info>

also, I feel the thread bump thingie should be less agressive than it is, or at least the bump request button should be working (I don't think it works for me)

@JeffMOD - Don't worry. I've not forgotten, I'm just unreliable. I've got to do some lines for Joebama too, as well as The Core.

Hey, ever played Operation Black Thunder? I remember it having a shotgun that is prolly just like what your shotgun is doing now! Feel free to check it out.

Anyway glad the mod is still up and gunnin'. If you need map ideas I can recommend some space colony themed mods for you to try out. Nice modelling so far!
