.Map :: MoHAA Mapping

Okay, so i have a pretty good overview of mapping, and i got skinning down pretty good. Could someone explain to me how you model? Is it done in MoHRadiant? Because I was looking into moddeling sense im looking to make samurai helmets for my clan mates. If done with MoHRadiant could someone give me a quick overview?

1st of all, go get a modelling prog. i use 3ds max. milkshape and lightray aren't the best but they will do if u want a cheap prog.

then go to any modelling site or read up tutorials, sign up for a course on 3ds max (lol i went for a free one in school). then model and practise hard.

so if u want to model ur samurai helmet, find plenty of reference pictures. i recommend: top/bottom, left/right, front/back and perspective pictures.

so just use what u've learned to model.

finally u skin it by uvw mapping it. then export it ingame!

p.s. keep ur models low poly, i recommend not above 1000 vertices for a mesh

Are there any tutorials directed at specifically mohaa. Ive looked and every one of them are guns, guns, guns, guns. Anything else anybody interested like clothes?

No, there's no tutorial....I've searched too .

Yes there are tutorials if you know where to look and remember good ole Scorpiomidget. Head on over to Lightray 3d. I dont know the website addy offhand. Look in the forums there. Scorpio and Prometheus wrote tons of information on how to bring models into MOH. And they wrote a plugin which can make it all happen with Lightray 3d.

Peace,
