The texture looks like that because the Model needs to be scaled down quite a bit. once its scaled it wont look so low rez.

Hoverboard looks excellent. Though I have some suggestions for the textures.

All the vehicles I've played in look used. Look like they've been in the field a while, through some mud, scratched, abused. Not dented mind you, but everything else. The hoverboard looks like it just rolled right out of the factory. IMHO, I think it should look like it's been used and abused itself, just not dented or anything. Hence, just a texture update.



Too a much lesser degree, I make the following suggestions...

Perhaps make an afterburner flame when the thing is given forward thrust. Or is this flame planned and will be in the blackened area?

Also, a fast spinning turbo fan texture would be very cool for the jet intake texture.

Also, (don't know how hard this would be) but having it so that the player would crouch when at top speed (as a skier would tuck down) and/or having it so whenever the board lands hard or does an upwards boost (if planned) that the player temporarily crouch so that it looks as though inertia is acting on him/her.

Great work. I'm excited to give it a spin.

Very very very rough Turret HUD which we will still tweak:

-Penfold-,

Yes Sir, you are completely correct. the Skin isnt finished, and you pretty much hit all of the plans that i have for the skins on the head .

(wraps head in foil to get -Penfold- out of his head) Hey, it worked is Signs!!!

I don't know if it is asked anywhere else but can you tell me about the new gun that replaced the assault rifle and show some pics?

If I missed the topic about it just give me a link.

It is because evreythime I see the icon I get more curious...

Try hunting around in the site news archives, I seem to remember it in the first news post of 2004

Not sure how much has been said, but basically it is the CPP - Chaos Pulse Pistol.

That's nonsense so you might as well take off the foil.

mwahuhahuhaaa!!!

Good, now recycle it.

Good, now get to work on the OCMMO, the cargo transport vehicle, and the MHARS. You feel the need to complete these things within two months. Understood?

Good, now remember to never put aluminum foil on your head.

Good, now from this point on, this post will now be read as "Great minds think alike." and that's it.

Good, now forget that it was I that was in your head, but remember the rest.

Good... Very good...

No worries Loq, the all seeing admin has removed all mental abilities from -Penfold- ... no wait... he didn't have any to start with... how to remove something that's not there...

hey , as long as the chaos team members are hypnotized ,this would be a good time to remind them of the 100 plus proxytypes I brought up all that time ago. . .

Hehe, crazy proxys!

Deapblade, the CPP gun also taunts you too.
I don't like that it does it either. Take out that animation!

Does the hoverbopard have weapons or will it just fly and crash into people and monsters like the Manta? (so it'd be a manta with no weapons, yikes... I'm sure you guys have not only put a weapon on it but you've done something I'd expect from Chaos )

This (or a version of it) would be more appropriate in the dev section Halprin.

Well Sir, the Current Design for the Hover Board will have no weapons. A player on a hoverboard will use the weapons that are in their inventory. Unfortunatly, the board would be too heavy to hover if a cooling mechanism was put on the thruster turbines, so they have an auto shutoff mechanism when they begin to over heat. Once a short cool down period expires the mechanism disengages and the rider is free to fire the turbines again. THe big plus of the board will be that the Grapple Hook will be usable while riding the board. Hence a rider can hook other Vehicles and "Ski" behind them without being dragged across the ground as if he was being drawn and quartered. In the case of air craft, if the Hook becomes disengaged the board will most likely save the player from certin death.



For some reason i feel the strange urge to design a troop transport, and something called a okmo. And oh yea, Iv had ideas for the Hover Bike, and a Troop Transport since we found out that UT2k4 had Vehicles

So yes this is truly a case of Great Minds! hehehehehe

melee battering ram vehicle!!

Sorry, couldnt resist

Just think scorpian, but with spikes and stuff and the more people in it the faster it goes (but no projectile weapons).
