In Response To: Re: Fully working Fuel Rod Gun in Two Betrayals (James Kinsella)

: As louis pionted out on the homepage, the image is blocky. I was wondering if
: maybe it had something to do with the proportions of the body carrying it.
: Tell me if this is stupid.

Actually, the reason it's blocky is because of the model. The Halo engine uses different models at different distances. And, for weapons, different models for the first person, and third person. The first person models are ALWAYS more detailed, and have more polys than the third person models. Since the Fuel Rod Gun doesn't HAVE an FP model (Bungie never expected anyone to be holding one), I had to use the third person one. That's why it's blocky and the texture seems not as good.
