Ez-Mdl editing?

SantaHoe

Ok, so I've been hearing some stuff about customising your in-game player...not sure what game this is (maybe UT?) but anyway...

*Is it true that you can change the height & weight of your player?
*Remember the early previews of Quake3, when they said you can import a hi-res picture as a face texture?
*I think the Half-Life mdling scene is going realy well, I'm impressed!

But what we (I) need is a game that has a Player Setup menu that not only allows you to chose a model, or a colour...
But a menu that will allow you to easily create an almost one-of-a-kind mdl to play with...

Imagine a 'wizzard' that takes you through 20 or 30 steps of chosing age, weight, sex, race, hair, build, facial features, clothes, posture, and so on......
All materials would be included as standard in all servers and clients, so everyone could see your kick-ass model.

This is what I would like to see in the next big FPS.

BUT WHO CARES?

You can do this in one of those WWF wrestling games on the PSX and N64. But the models in them are sh!te anyway.

Yeah, this would be really cool for games like Q3.

SantaHoe

Yeah, I've seen that game...
Wrestling games are usualy cack, but it'd be worth playing for that feature alone!

Karla

Yeah we had a great laugh the other night doing models of people we know

Also people pass on ways of doing certain characters over The Internet, like you can find sites that describe how to build a Lara Croft model for the game etc.


Oh and no, it's not worth getting the game, it IS cack!

SantaHoe

Models of ppl U know?
Didn't know it was that good!
I might rent it from Xtra-Vision or something.

Hey Karla, you're an 3l33t coder aren't you?
Maybe you could "whack" together a little win32 proggie for making HalfLife models in the same fashion as that boxing game? Eh?

Karla

LMAO!

3l33t coder?!?!?

nah you must have the wrong person!

SantaHoe

Hmmm, I seem to remember a post of yours some while back, that would suggest you know a thing or two about programming...

Well, yeah I did play with the source code to Quake 2 for a while, but I never actually got anywhere with it really

I've learned a fair bit since, I think, maybe I'll get into it again sometime...
Time is kinda tight these days tho, you know how it is.

And I also got addicted to Perl, which is no great help to C/C++

SantaHoe

Yeah, I know...
I'd love to have the time to stay up all night coding and drinking coke.
But work keeps me too busy.
