model looks nice but download button doesnt work

Sorry, Should work now.

I was having a few issues with the link.

Would you mind trying again?

Incase anyone else can't get the link on the other site to work, the direct link is: Direct Link to Andre zip file

The link in my previous post does have a video and some images.

Marc

yes, it works now. downlading...

thank you.

No problems,

I hope you like him.

Incase you are wondering I have kept him quite plain on purpose.

I figured that it would be good for you all to customise him to your individual tastes. The colour map and the spec map should be pretty easy to edit and I will release more skins including new normal maps for him as time goes by as well as some animations.

The texture resolution is high as well but this can be edited as well if needed.

Let me know what you think and feel free to post images of your own skin mods.

doesnt open for me...

"There was an error opening the file..."

the model doesn't look horrible, but the normal mapping does, he looks plastic, perhaps he oils his body.

Cheers for that lovely constructive criticism mpdeveloper_B

I think the word horrible is a tad harsh...

...and I thought contributing this model free of charge was a nice thing to do but I guess I will know better next time.

The normal mapping should look just fine in game.

He has a spec map which should vary the specularity.
Are you using the right shader? (xXxDiciples)

You can always darken the spec map if it really is too glossy.

Devon, the file should open with no problems.

Are you using A7?

a screen shot of it or a short youtube vid would make it easier for others to view without having to download anything or set up a test level.

Thanks Lostclimate.

The link in my original post contains a video and some images.

I tried to embed into the thread but all I saw was code for some reason.

I hope you really don't mean that. your work is great and appreciated by the community. i dont think any harm was meant by the comment. thank you for the contribution, and i am looking forward to more.

Thank you for the kind comments Blink.

Don't worry, I won't let one negative comment stop me from contributing more models and textures.

I may create a Zombie version next. What do you think?

yeah, that would be cool. a zombie.

That would be awesome, looking forward to seeing it.

Great, I will get to work on it.

Super moldy or fresh meat?

Thank you marc, the good old guard.mdl and warlock.mdl need a break finally!

how about a little of both, oozing pus, rotten, bloody. just enough to be scary, yet he might make you vomit on first sight,lol.

It is nice of you to work on high-quality models, and then give them away to the community. If you want to work on a zombie, I am sure that many would benefit, even though there are already a number of free or cheap zombies out there. The main thing is what interests you.

After the zombie, I suggest a sort of medieval peasant or rural farmer with a tunic and a beard to be frightened by the zombie!!
Thanks again,
Jim

then people can make some play as A7(Andre- the main protagonist) and save the scared farmer from the zombie(The Zombie- the main antogonist.). You may need model weapons though.

I will see what I can do

I would like to create a female as well at some stage.

I would also like to create animations for the characters using bones but for some reason when I tried to do this it made the engine crash.

Does anyone have any experience with bones?

i think you should make the female model before the zombie. i am pretty good at adding bones, its pretty easy for me. i havent mastered the animation part, that part is new to me, but adding the bones is a piece of cake.i can add bones to the new model you make.

I am working on the female at the moment and she is looking good.
I think I will call her Anna Seven, although you can call her what ever you like.

I will release her for free with one skin and will release new skins in to the comunity for a small fee for both models (I still need to work out how to do this. I do have a paypal sellers account. If anyone can advise me it would be most appreciated)

I will release the Zombie skin for Andre free of charge along with a slightly tweaked model.

Blink, thank you for offering your help on the bones. I did manage to assign them to Andre and I thought everything was going well untill the engine crashed. If you are able to resolve this I will credit you as a co-creator / contibuter.

I can animate models with bones so that part should not be an issue.

Hi people,

Here is another free model for you!

Ninja 13 is free for you all to use in games made with 3d Gamestudio both commercially and un-commercially. You may not sell Ninja 13.

Feel free to give credit where credit is due.

He is one of the first normal mapped characters I made a few months ago and I have recently given him a bit of a rework texture wise.

There are some strange seams which run along his arms in engine as you can see from the pics. It could be something to do with the normal map but this only happens in Gamestudio. If any of you can work it out, please let me know.

Happy Friday the 13th!

P.S. .... and yes I do quite like Mortal Kombat
