OWA Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 Welcome to the blog, no doubt you've been waiting for this, so check out the polygons on these hot objects. <h3>Flak Track Ingame</h3> danpaul88 has been grappling with the Flak Track to get it rigged up and ingame. He has re-unwrapped the tracks after adding polygons to them, allowing them to bend over slopes. There are still a few issues to be worked out with the physics but after, we should have another completed vehicle! Here are some WIP shots. Lots of westwood logos! Too big! It's like a Battle Flaktress! Flat tyres and bumps in the road! Rigged using 3d Studio Max 8! No texture on the tracks, but fixed in the next image down! Here are the four flavours ingame and visually complete! <h3>Ivan's Weapons</h3> Ric has been applying the final touches to two of Ivan's new weapons (as well as a third bonus, which you'll have to wait for). These two weapons are the MP-412 REX Revolver, which will be Ivan's sidearm as well as a nifty combat knife (for stabbing people in the face with). Check them both out below. Here's the revolver. It's not a single action army, even though russkie torture expert Revolver Ocelot uses one. It has six bullets (enough to kill anything that moves ) per revolver clip. Combat Knife! *stabs* Great for opening cans of baked beans! TruYuri has some great plans for the animation of these new weapons! <h3>Allied Camo Patterns</h3> We want to make the allied camo patterns differant to the Soviet ones, so we are taking suggestions for patterns and colours. There will be the Urban, Woodland, Desert and Snow camoflages appearing for the allies, but we are still debating on the patterns and such. Here are a few suggestions from me. To respect RA2, I figured that our Allied Desert camoflage should be a plain tan colour or, if that was too bland, a Renegade 2 inspired pattern (images of each camoflage are viewable below. RA2 followed by Renegade 2 below that). I was thinking of perhaps a tiger stripe camoflage for the woodland version. As seen in this picture applied to an M1A1 Abrams. For the Urban camoflage I looked towards how the actual ingame voxel was painted out in the blue/grey scheme (as seen in this render of the Grizzly Tank from awesome, but now dead, Generals conversion "RA2: Road to Moscow") I haven't looked into snow camoflage. Any suggestions are welcome! <h3>Team Messages</h3> I went to see the Dark Knight on Monday (which rocked) and I also passed my driving theory test! I'm at home alone all next week since I'm not going on holiday away this year. But it was my decision. Peace and quiet ftw. cfehunter has unwrapped Ric's knife. TheBeerinator is now onto texturing it and has also done a bit more work on the MP5! danpaul88 has been working on the new alpha for the testers which should be released to them sometime next month. dtrngd is back and has now resumed mapmaking! <h3>OWA's Random Section</h3> Just so that you guys know that we are who we say we are. Here is a picture of your favourite two Bluehell Productions Lead Producers. <h3>Why?</h3> Because cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danpaul88 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Yes, The Dark Knight is a great film, I saw it last Sunday Flak tracks are looking awesome ingame, congrats to TheBeerinator on his texturizing. And they are fun to drive too... shame nobody else has them yet! muhahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest killboy06 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Hurrgle, flak track looks kewl. <3 Epic blog as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MuadDib15 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 That is an awesome flaktrack. My brother likes the bars on the front. <3 the knife and pistol. Will the knife have a better animation than Urimas's? I saw the Dark knight when it came out in theathers. We came in during the comercials and missed the entire line.

Wallywood Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) lots of pics ... very cool and i think the flak truck should have the classic desert print http://www.blowfeld.net/xbox/images/FPC%20Desert%20Camo.jpg and yes to the tiger striped camo and yes to the urban ...snow maybe something like this http://www.defense.gouv.fr/var/dicodrefont...en_montagne.jpg just throwing in some ideas ohhh and love ivans new toys Edited July 31, 2008 by WallYWooD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest u6795 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Dude, Ivans revolver is SO fucking awesome. I absolutely love the concept you guys used. Revolvers are very badass. Awesome blog, the Flak track is cool but a little large. Eh, it's awesome still though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EVA-251 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Flak Track- Great Revolver- Awesome Knife- *Poke* Allied Camo Schemes- Use the Prism Tank's scheme from that screenshot you provided for desert. Shows a Grizzly Tank about to be ripped apart by a Terror Drone Funny how huge the drone is shown to be in this screencap, its larger than a man. This coloration could be used for Forest (or snow, if you look at the picture closely). Looking at the cameos, Grizzly cameo is similar. As for urban, Steel blue FTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GummiBear Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 nice flaktrack, and I can't wait to stab those allied infantry with the knife, or just shoot them the "good old way" Also hurry up with that alpha danpaul88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamWolf Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Love the flak track <3 Revolver and Knife are just pure win *stabs in face* For the desert camo i think the renegade 2 one is better. Thats not the real OWA, the real one has long grey hair :x Another great blog guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Trevelian Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Hmm hmm! That revolver is just pure win, i'll make sure to put it to good use when i get the chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Westy543 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I can't wait to see what TruYuri will do with all of these. Hopefully some pretty cool stuff. Wolf, why are you stabbing OWA in the face? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cuddling Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 nice job with the flak tracks, and hurr for the BHP leaders I like their masks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stormweaver Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 (edited) Flak track will be awesome...they already look great, though seeing one in action would be great >.< Ivan I can see will probably end up being my fave unit. combat weaponry in the form of a knife and pistol is perfect for the radarproofness....be much better than APB sniper for chillin in the e War Factory >.< and the bombs...can i ask - place a bomb on someone, they get in a vehicle, can we make it so they still die? I can see some awesome strats if true >.< Edited August 1, 2008 by Stormweaver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy with a wrench Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 very nice, but what happened to the War Factory and tesla trooper, i though they already had textures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OWA Posted August 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 very nice, but what happened to the War Factory and tesla trooper, i though they already had textures. That was a video that I made using RA2: Vengeance, one of AR's donators. We didn;t put the textures on the tesla trooper as we'd just have to remove them all again afterwards when the new model came in. The War Factory is a completely differant model to the on that was shown in the Vengeance video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OWA Posted August 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 Give Ivan a Clint Eastwood voice Ivan is russian though. Also we will be using the actual unit sounds from RA2. But I see where you were going with the Revolver gag If we ever make the cameo character "Flint Westwood", we'll make sure that he is properly equipped ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleLaf Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 As far as I'm concerned, The Dark Knight is the best superhero movie I've ever seen.
