Malcolm for UT3 -WiP-

[Slaughter]

Whipped this up really quick to see if it works.

I´ll probably redo the whole thing when I´m not so damn tired.
Expect more updates soon.

 

[Slaughter]

Obviously still very wip.
But it´s getting there...

 

[Continuum]

looks pretty accurate so far :tup:

 

[Slaughter]

Update:

Does anyone have any reference for me of Malcolm´s back?

 

[Thanatos]

Hmm... reference shots of his back there arn't really any shots of his back in UT3 as far as I am aware although I know what his back looks like in UC2, and considering the armor is pretty similar in design to UT3.

Looking at the two textures I can see where his back is on the UT3 texture map and match it to the front.

Some time before UC2 Malcolm's spine was snapped by Gorge, so he has some type of high tech brace reinforcing his spine you can see that on the above image.
Please ignore my bad art skills from my PDA but I think it looks something like this:

 

[Slaughter]

Thanks man.
I appreciate it, but I´ve found some good reference by now.

You´re pretty close to what it looks like.

 

[Slaughter]

Latest update:

Threw in some Ironguard arms for fun.

The legs look a bit thin...But that will be fixed.

 

[daloonie]

Chopsticks for knees

Looks good Slaughter, though you have some see through holes?!

 

[Thanatos]

Thanks man.
I appreciate it, but I´ve found some good reference by now.

You´re pretty close to what it looks like.

No problem, it looks great will we be getting some sun glasses (UT, UT2003&4) and goggles (UC2) for him?

 

[Leonardo]

A pair of Sniper glasses would be appropriate or maybe some nice wrap around gators with a Yellow tint to the lens?

 

[Kantham]

So you just model using references? How you get the texturing done as well? Sounds hardcore, you got some skills.

 

[Slaughter]

@rex
It´s still a wip.
I´ll fix those holes when I have everthing else done.

@Thanatos
Yeah I´ll model his shades.

@Kantham
I can´t take any credit for the textures...Those came with UT3.
The model is mine tho.

 

[[VaLkyR]Anubis]

Looking good,but his legs are too thin.

Malcolm is not on a diet,isn't he ?!

 

[Kantham]

So they included the textures/materials, but not the model?

 

[Thanatos]

Well more like they removed the model's assets and left the textures after they made the story cutscenes.

 

[Slaughter]

A Malcolm playermodel was ingame at some point.
I guess they removed the mesh and code but forgot/overlooked some of the textures.

 

[Slaughter]

Here´s a current screengrab from 3ds Max.

About the Voicepack:

I don´t really know how to make one yet but I want to.

I´ve been browsing through Malcolm´s voicepacks and found some interesting things.
The german, france, spanish and italian voicepacks are complete.
They have all commands, taunts and stuff that the regular voicepacks have.
The only voicepack missing these is the english one...it only contains the sounds of the cutscenes.

I could rip a few taunts from the UT 3 Page and maybe edit some of the cutscene sounds.
Of course this would mean that the voicepack is missing lines like "Attacking Prime Node" or "Enemy Flagcarrier Is Here".

Would that be okay?

 

[Vailias]

Could convert the voicepack from ut2k4 maybe?

 

[Slaughter]

I don´t think Malcolm had a Voicepack in UT2k4.
He used the standard Mercmale voice as far as I know...and he´d still be missing a lot of commands.
