And still not as it should be!
http://boards.polycount.net/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=93751&an=0&page=0#93751 fat-comical, as opposed to Quakey-disturbing
side rant: I hate how most 3d animation shows, like Shrek, portray their characters. Fuck that cutesy "stylized" stuff. I don't think it's awful. The Q1 shamb has a big gut, so it's a reasonable interpretation to make a high-poly shamb a bit fat.
The claws...um, are cool, but they're really not claws. They're bony fingers. It's the mouth, though. That's the problem. Those teeth are wrong. As the guy posted below the pic, they're chisel teeth i.e. herbiverous. Not monstery and certainly not like the original's teeth, which are the clearest part of the skin. Perhaps he was basing his interpretation a little too much on the model Speeds linked earlier: http://www.geocities.com/leedlebeetle/QK_marine_shambler.jpg Bonus points for actually making the shambler fat as opposed to giving him a six-pack which is what most of them do.
While a shambler might have some fat, it should have neither the aforementioned clearly distinguishable six-pack nor rolls of fat because its hide hangs loosely upon its frame. IMO.
It should be neither fit nor slack...
I've never thought of the original id Shambler as having a "big gut"... neither extreme seems to work well for me and by previous admission that face/mouth is ridiculous I think, although this may well sound bad, that to make a great, and new, Shambler, the modeler may have had to have seen a decent amount of Lovecraft art. That's where "the shambler from the stars" came from anyway. http://www.tasmediafile.com/Illustration/Shambler.htm
a little toned and sloth-like, but nice imho. http://home.telkomsa.net/obihb/shots/obihb01_15.JPG YEAH! PUMPING IRON AND TAKING STEROIDS! FUCK YEAH! Bit too pink Skaarj like for my tastes http://www.coronaleonis.com/3dShamblerL.jpg mmm? http://www.threedy.com/site/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=77282&stc=1 NOOOO! I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY CANCELLED FRASIER! http://www.coronaleonis.com/3dFiendL.jpg fiend that looks decent. Don't remember where I've seen this before. http://www.coronaleonis.com/3dWizzardL.jpg scrag! Random stuff that turned up in the search: http://mi.wizards.com/global/images/magic/general/flowstone_shambler.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/csstrowbridge/Tulzscha/DimensionalShambler.jpg http://www.philsp.com/data/images/m/midnight_shambler_198805_n5.jpg http://www.magiclibrary.net/rarities/prerelease-fungal-shambler.jpg http://www.rpgshop.com/images/Mini/rpr2496.jpg http://www.komarckart.com/coc_10.jpg some interesting, some not so. too bad it's on leveldesign.nl. dont count on good judging, fairness, non-twisted-ness, etc.
it's a bit old and rather long, but it's well written and (i feel) worth the read:
http://static.circa1984.com/the-big-scam.html cheers! :P Hmmmm yeah interesting stuff. Way too long, I skipped the middle half, but the rest was pretty enlightening. I see enough greed and money-fixation in Guild Wars (a game without any chance of theft or piracy, and only very minor options for scamming) for it to strike a chord.
If you're sick of func_msgboard being ridiculously slow, just log out. Everything loads like lightning if I'm not logged in. You don't get last-read tracking but that's not exactly vital.
Surely metlslime will rush to fix the issue. textures beta test. kinda
those been rotting for like 3 years http://www.planetquake.com/speedy/textures_rust_beta.zip test them in ur mapping and request particular textures to be made (I know there are no lights) then it could be made into final. small ones are q1 friendly even dont re-distribute plz dont steal credit
