haha, neato

hehe nice. the hitbox would be different though... otherwise i would like it when it comes out, i hate that damn horse...:dog:

Is that a chicken? Spider? Crab?
:dog:

so is it the hit boxes that allow you to see under the tank, but prevent you from shooting under it? (Or in front of the tracks in some cases)
And, is there a way to fix that on your side?

Nice Captain D

i'd use it, in honor of HL2 release lol

I would use it because you get a better view. Gives you the sweet advantage.

If you want a good view, you could just replace the Horse model with a p model or a helmet model :X

no .. with mapmodels us mappers have to build the "hitbox" or actually "clip" ourselfs..with brushes.. which is very hard and time consuming concidering that we have to convert sometimes very round and/or higher poly shapes into square and/or lowpoly brushes to cover the tanks, enzv.

that sounds like it would not be too fun.
So, if the mapper is in a rush, we get invisible corners on some models, the ones that get noticed most are the baricades on the beach maps, on the edges of the tracks on tanks (see above pic), and some banisters on stairs and balconies.

:PARROT: Any updates on this model, or closer shots to see it better?

Just trying to scale it right so it fits the base near-perfectly. It will probably look something like the above pic :).

Oh, and this will probably be the last model I do for HL1, seeing that I have to go pick up my reserved copy of HL2 on September 1st :D.

I want this released! :o
