TranceLikeState 94 Report post Posted March 2, 2010 Ok, so forever i wanted the jetpack to look like this. Its the rocketeers jetpack which i'm sure some of you at least are familiar with. Anyhow, i did it in about 5 hours so not too long. It looks kinda bad now but i'm hoping to make some of its textures reflective to help it out. I have never done a vehicle successfully, but i think i know a little about what to do. anyone have any pointers? i'd appreciate it. and any other input of course.

TranceLikeState 94 Report post Posted March 5, 2010 No rocketeer fans here? i find that hard to believe. anyway, i added a throttle control, and submitted it at least for now. i wish i could make it look better. sketchup is awful for texturing round objects. http://www.gtagarage.com/mods/show.php?id=10504 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave27 1 Report post Posted March 5, 2010 (edited) I saw the rocketeer in the cinema and loved it with the gum over the thing and James bond (timothy Dalton) in zepplin at the end. I'll have to find a copy aint seen it in a decade. Are you going to make the helmet? Edited March 5, 2010 by Dave27 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

October 21 2015 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2010 Trancelikestate, i am pretty sure that Jetpack will look better if you add a reflection map Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mini-Me 24 Report post Posted March 6, 2010 Isn't 10/21/2015 or October 21 2015 too complicated to write ? Just call him Fuzion, as we "insiders" do . He formerly had that name that's easier to type . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TranceLikeState 94 Report post Posted March 6, 2010 yes, and i do believe this is common knowledge at this point. yet i tried to make it reflective myself to no avail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave27 1 Report post Posted March 18, 2010 That looks awesome. Any chance of being able to code it so that you can switch flying modes so you can fly forwards really fast in a similar manner to the hydra. Keep up the good work Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ronnyboy 2 Report post Posted April 10, 2010 I'm pretty sure you could write a CLEO script that could do that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TranceLikeState 94 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 So if anyone has any suggestions for a code that does something similar to what dave earlier described that would rule. Anyways, i released a new improved version of the jetpack and a rocketeer player model as well. Funny how the more you learn you can come back to your old projects and make them better. New smooth groups and reflections for the jetpack. ROCKETEER Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
