[Madow]

Good luck, Boots.

Hopefully, a failure of a Global Moderator won't touch this topic.

a law

Hm. Shading is a bit weird. It's hard to tell whether it's flat or round. :S
Handle looks a bit too thick, and IMHO that front part (on the right side) would look better if it's rounded on one side and flat on the other (doesn't matter which, as long as it's not round on both sides).
That's just my opinion though.

[Boots]

What do you mean its flat or round? That makes no sense at all.

[DarkCrusade]

It does indeed make sense. You chose a way of shading this LAW that makes it hard for the eye to get the shape of this gun. I needed to "zoom" in to see it´s real shape.

[Boots]

No it doesn't.

"round or flat"

its a fuckin' 2d sprite. of course its going to be flat. Get a better eyesight !

[Hair|Trigger]

its a f**kin' 2d sprite. of course its going to be flat. Get a better eyesight !

>_>

[Boots]

Btw, it's not 'lighting'. it's representing a lighter shade of metal. dont know how it's screws the shape up i see it fine..

will fix the roundness later

That was the first expression of mine, too, when I read his post.

Who talked about lighting?

No it doesn't.

Dude! Think!

Sure it is a 2D sprite. But the sprite is an illusion of a real gun. A sprite looks flat, if you use one or two colors for a gun (metal, wood) it will look flat, if you use many colors it looks round and you used colors in a way that it looks round.

[Boots]

What, I don't understand.

I did use two colours, just different shades.

[DarkCrusade]

The way you don´t understand what I am pointing out all clear is so weird ... anyway, I am talking about the amount of colors you used at all, not the different kind of colors, no matter which shade, OMG!

[Boots]

[23:14] <`HollywooD> think I lost some IQ
[23:14] <@dashdash1> not really

i'm not the only one that doesn't get wtf you're on about. anyway, i don't care because it makes no sense to me, i'll update the roundness and change some lighting tomorrow or some time.

what about the other weapons

[DarkCrusade]

The rest seems great to me, I will definetly play this mod once finished.

[L[0ne]R]

I'll try to be more specific.
Left (orange part) - it looks round because top is bright and it smoothly fades to dark, which creates an impression that it's round like a bun. Since it's a rocket launcher, I guess it's ok for it to be round, but the orange color makes me think it's made of wood which is normally what stocks are made of. And stocks are flat. Confusing.

Middle - You have shading go like this (from top to bottom): highlight-shadow-highlight(same tone as the top highlight). This kind of shading is weird and doesn't create the impression that this part is round.

Right - it's much more matte comparing to middle. Highlights are almost unnoticeable. Isn't it supposed to be part of the barrel in the middle? If it is - it should have same shading as the middle part.

---
By flat/round I meant this (pic #1 and 2). IMO it just looks better than if the tip is rounded from both sides (looks like a doughnut (damn, I need some food)).
I also did some changes to the shading and shape to show what I mean (pic #3)



Also.. mind your manners?

[Boots]

I'm australian, excuse my manners. .
