Wirehead Studios

<_< I'm lookin for a Q3 Arena Player & Weapon modeler who will design two models for me. The first one is a Q3 Arena Player Model which is the Alien Commander Sarris off of the movie Galaxy Quest. The Q3 Arena Weapon Model is the Chainsaw Q3A(Generations Arena mod), which would take place of the gaunlet for Q3 Arena. I have pics in which I can't paste here...email me or reply here and I will give you the 411 about both models...Thankz for your time!!!

Moving this to the editing forum...

I'm afraid the Doom Warriors Chainsaw model is not available for loan to another mod at this time.  If someone's willing to craft you a brand new saw we don't have a problem with that.  A chainsaw is a chainsaw, after all.

<_< I understand that Phoenix, but I did mean someone to remake the whole model itself...by the way thanks for the info about the original chainsaw.

I have more info on player model and links to pics are here: The Weapon Model Link: http://www.wireheadstudios.org/gallery/vie...Weapons&id=csaw (http://www.wireheadstudios.org/gallery/view_photo.php?set_albumName=Weapons&id=csaw) the weapon site already has the specs of the gun & the Player Model Link: http://www.questarian.com/gq-faq.htm#Is (http://www.questarian.com/gq-faq.htm#Is) to see the player model on that site...scroll down until you come to the first pic that would be it!!! Things no shown in Player pic is that it has Three Appendigez limply hangin out the top of his head, and on his back he has two small wings that only flutter when he jumps!!! Thanks 4 your time!!!

Pardon my intervention, but I never saw any part of this forum marked as the classified ads section. I could be wrong, but I think that trying to recruit help with a mod on the forum of a mod group is just ignorant.

It's not that bad, as long as they're just ASKING FOR, and not demanding, a bit of help.

And as long as they realize that our stuff is NOT up for grabs, and that we really don't have time to do it for them.

Well... we kind of know about the chainsaw, seeing that I made the model, and that link points straight to our web page.  I think, however, that if you're looking for someone to make you a chainsaw model "similar to the Gen Arena chainsaw" you'd have more success posting on Polycount's (http://www.planetquake.com/polycount) forums?  None of us here really have time to work on requests.  Making our mod keeps us busy enough as it is!  :mellow:

:thumb: I will pay someone...just name a price, and I might pay you for the job!!! Leave a reply if interested!!! Thankz 4 your time!!

It's not a question of pay...it's a question of time.

We really do not have anyone to spare for you.

Well...I understand your very, very busy...but if you know anyone who can help me not on your team...than please tell them about my post!!! Thankz 4 your time again!!!

Our modeler is Phoenix, and he's already told you he's busy.

Sorry to bother...but I really am tryin to get this dune ASAP...I heard that you guyz have one of the best modelerz...sorry that we couldn't work something out!!! Thankz for your time!!!

You'd think we were the last modelers on earth :]

I'll do it for $200/model

:huh: Wow I didn't realize it would cost that much for Q3 Arena models...since the game is like 5 years old!!! Sorry that price is way out of my league!!! Thnakz anyway!!!

haha, tek's just messin with ya :P

$200 for the entire batch isn't too over the top, but not per model.

Still waiting on a reply from my artsy friend.

:unsure: I thought I would be able to recieve a discount, because I can't really spend 200 dollars for two 5yr old game models!!! 200 dollarz 4 both is really still out of my league, and it makez me :evil: a little angry!!! I have been lookin 4 a modeler to help me 4 about a year or so, and now that I found one the price is outragous!!! Well...sorry that we couldn't do business!!! Thankz 4 your time!!!

do you know how long it takes to make a model? Its a very low hourly rate

Pharadox: you're the one that offered to pay.

:evil: : I really understand the whole hourly process, because a good friend of mine, Wraith, used to work at polycount...anyway I have watched him do some models, and I basically know the whole process. So, I understand all the time it talkez, but you and I know that what I'm askin is 2 models for a 5 yr old game, in which, you or the modeler has done a million timez. With experience comes speed, and I still think that 200 dollarz 4 both is way over the margin of fareness. Thankz 4 your time again!!!

Like I said, you mentioned payment.

We all thought you were asking for free work.

:unsure: Well...I'm not a big company like ID or something...so all I can really offer you is 50 per model!!! I have billz like any other human, and thatz really all the extra money I can spare 4 5yr old modelz!!! Thankz 4 your time once again!!!

So you're offering $50 per model?

How many polygons?

And please, if you're going to be conducting BUSINESS instead of asking for favors, use correct spelling and grammar. Saying 'billz' is not good business etiquette. ;)

:thumb: I will pay 50/model for only top quality models with animations...why would I want to spend 100 on poop?? No offense...I have posted so much on here I'm ready to get these models design rolling...ya know!!! I would like the quality service you offer others, just for a cheaper price. If I had 200 dollars to spend, then you would get 200 dollars...I just don't have that much spare money...sorry!!! Thnakz 4 you time!!!

Oh, you don't want them just modeled, you want them ANIMATED too.

Are you aware of Quake3's animation system? It doesn't exist beyond 'punch' and 'twirl'.

:ph34r: The player model has small wings on his back that flutter when he jumps...now would you have to use animations to make them do that?(If so that's what I would like.) The chainsaw pulls the target into the blade when you hit them, and the engine kind of smokes...does it need animations to do that?(If so that's what I would like.) Let me know the answers the these questions...thankz!!!

The wings fluttering can be done, but it's a bit messy, the chainsaw smoking.. that would require either some very tricky modelling, or code-support in the mod.

<_< Well...I would like the little wings on the player model to flutter when he jumps, but the chainsaw doesn't have to smoke...ok!!! If someone is interested in helping me 4 50/model...please reply ASAP so I can get these models started!!! Thankz!!!

I can tell you right now that to make a chainsaw blade even spin at speed it requires program code changes to Quake 3.

Anyway, it does seem to me that nobody here who has the ability to model has the time to assist you, payment or no payment.  We know your needs, as you've shown no hesitation in stating them numerous times, but unless someone steps forward my best suggestion would be to continue scouting around in other places.

:blink: Well now I have changed my mind about both models. I don't think the last two were interesting enough to model. So...the first one is a Q3 Arena player model, in which, is the lead character from the PC game Black Hawk Down(Delta Force). I have two nice screen shots which show plenty to design the model. Screen-Shot 1: http://www.nova-inside.com/df/bhd/bhd-scre...enshots/250.jpg (http://www.nova-inside.com/df/bhd/bhd-screenshots/250.jpg) & Screen-Shot 2: http://www.nova-inside.com/df/bhd/bhd-scre...enshots/232.jpg (http://www.nova-inside.com/df/bhd/bhd-screenshots/232.jpg) now one little thing that you might not see in these pics is the American flag on his right shoulder. Next, is the Q3 Arena weapon model which is the M4+203 which is a gun off the Black Hawk Down game. Here is the only screenshot I could find... http://www.nova-inside.com/page.php?catego...y=df1&pageid=44 (http://www.nova-inside.com/page.php?category=df1&pageid=44) when you get to the site...it's the second gun from the top. I would like this gun to take place of the Gauntlet or machine gun...which ever you think would be better. Thankz for your time!!!

:rolleyes: we know what an m4 is , and polycount already has that gun , or something like it . twice .

:P But the M4/M203 has a grenade launcher, and a scope on top. A bit more that just the regular M4.( http://www.nova-inside.com/page.php?catego...y=df1&pageid=44 (http://www.nova-inside.com/page.php?catego...y=df1&pageid=44) ) Thankz!!!

As much as I hate to do this, I'm going to close this topic.  Why?  Well, to put it simply, enough is enough.  We've not posted a rules sticky here, but this board is mainly geared towards people in our community bantering ideas back and forth, showing off their work, getting advice, etc, aid is also focused towards Wirehead's projects.  This is not a general request board.

I understand you need help modeling, and that you're looking for someone to make models.  We've told you already that nobody here is able to help you.  I tried to be nice and drop a hint in my last post, but now I'm going to be a bit more firm.  If nobody is helping you it's because nobody is willing or able to.  Posting more replies is not going to change that situation.  It's time to move on.  If you need a model that desperately and nobody is helping, then either widen your search, or learn how to make models.  Spamming our board repeatedly with the same requests is not going to solve your problem.
