-=Hello=-
Hi. This is my first attempt at making a mod for Soldat and working with pixels. The mod is based on non-fictional modern weapons. It's currently a work in progress and will only feature Interface-gfx Guns for now.

Here's some teasers for right now...

-=Notes=-
Weapons may not be accurate.
Be nice... It's my first time.
All weapons and such belong to me.
So please don't steal or w/e... It's not even finished...

[Will Be Updated Overtime!]

Do not fear. you are clearly one of the more skilled first timers..

All I can say is maybe not have the black line going through in the middle of the AK, make it lighter (but still darker than the colours around it) and it will seem more like an indent. (Like the sniper rifle in my sig, it has this technique)

You should show the actual sizes too, just so we know what to expect when the mod is released. (Save as .png if you are having problems with the picture quality)

The AK looks like an MP44

I am? o_0 Wow...
Thanks! ^_^

And I cant see your sniper rifle well...

Those screen shots are what they will look like in-game.

It'll probably change over time...

I posted a new screenshot [07-23-08]. The one on the right came before the MP44.

I like how your HK looks. As Hair|Trigger mentioned you seem like one of the more talanted modders.

Krack · « **Reply #7 on:** July 25, 2008, 08:30:30 pm »

Thank you. ^__^

Hair|Trigger · « **Reply #8 on:** July 25, 2008, 08:40:58 pm »

Yeah you just have to show us the real screenshots. not zomed in please : D

but they do seem pretty good. Improve your shading a little maybe and work on outlines and stuff

Why is the FN Scar coloured yellow?

Krack · « **Reply #9 on:** July 25, 2008, 08:47:12 pm »

I don't know what you guys want!Â

How do you guys want me to screen shot my work?
I'm all confused... -_-

Just a tip, when u are saving pixel art (such as guns made in ms paint) save them as a .PNG or a .BMP It doesnt make the pixels all fuzzy and ugly...
=]
But you are definitely good for a first timer...

It makes them much easier to see. Also use .PNG or .BMP to make them clear, like ace said. But I think some image uploaders (Like TinyPic) convert them from .BMP back to bad quality .jpg when you try to upload a .bmp so .PNG is probably the way to go

Either show screenshots of what the guns look like when you have implemented them into soldat or show us the original files you saved into whatever program

And if you don't know how to take a screenshot the button is 'Print Screen' it should be up near your Scroll Lock, F12 and insert keys...
Once you have pressed the button, you can go into a program, such as Photoshop or Paint, and press CTRL+V.. To paste the screenshot

It looks like this:

Boots · « **Reply #13 on:** July 26, 2008, 04:19:46 am »

Or you can press 'F4' which will save a screen in your 'screens' folder..

offtopic: hmm i need to remake my interface, im bored of rainbows

Boots · « **Reply #15 on:** July 26, 2008, 05:34:31 pm »

Yes, yes you can.

Krack · « **Reply #16 on:** July 28, 2008, 01:29:12 am »

I don't like how the 'In-Game' screens look...

Maybe the only way you guys can see is when the mod is finished...?

Dude.. if you dont show the in-game shots you might aswell shove it up your arse. I doubt you will get as many downloads if people dont see what the weapons really look like. Besides if you do give us real sizes we can use them in-game before the release to test brightness and size issues. Then the outcome will only be better. of course we will also give you more accurate advice aswell.

You have plenty to gain and not (that) much to lose

Krack · « **Reply #18 on:** July 28, 2008, 05:06:48 am »

Hm... I'm just gonna make Interface-Gfx...

...and just post them on this post.Â
