This is a futuristic soldier I made for the Fantasy Character Contest. You can pose, animate and render the models in the pose.blend, and you can edit them in the armor_rigging.blend. Unpack the latter blend file before rendering. Textures didn't show me if I didn't do that. Textures were made by me. The hdri image is from zbyg on deviantART: http://zbyg.deviantart.com/
I hope you will like this :)

Hey! Could you program this so its compatible with the Game Engine?
contmike
Unfortunately I am not familiar with the BGE at all, but if you can tell me what exactly do you think I need to modify on it or add to it, I can learn how to do it and I could make it work. :) I guess the materials need to be recreated in BGE. Is there anything else?

I would like to use this for a videogame I am making. I would like to know if putting your name in the credits is good enough for you. Feel free to check out our website: kandeproductions.webs.com(you have to type this into your url bar uptop, you cant use bing, google, or any other search engine). From there you can access any of our other site(wikia, deviant, youtube, and facebook).
contmike
Really? :O I am honored! :) Seeing my name in the credits is enough. But I couldn't reach your website :(
KandE
Go to our youtube channel: IRRATATINGBEAN. Go to the FEED section. About the third thing down should be a post with a link to our website. Try that out.
contmike
that doesn't work either :(
KandE
I dont know then because it works for me(we will put any vids we release up on our youtube channel, ill try to leave a comment here to tell you when we do) p.s.The soldier is planned to be put into the game form the start not in an update later. :)
contmike
Great :) Thank you! I am looking forward to the updates :)
Rez30
nvm on making it in game engine, it is way to complex for the game engine. Thanks for putting it out there tho!
contmike
oh I see :( I will learn stuff about the game engine after I'm finished with my current project, so I can post models for it too.

Great upload! But, when I put a modifier on anything it won't work! Can someone tel me why?
contmike
Thanks. What kind of modifier did you try to apply and on which objects and in which .blend? In the armor_rigging.blend I have simplify turned on so if you want to use a subsurf modifier it won't show until you turn that off.
Acezzz01
oh i see... Noob question but.... how do I turn off simplify?
Acezzz01
Never mind that last comment about me asking how to turn simplify off. Anyway, thanks you for uploading this awesome blend!
contmike
You're welcome :) Glad that you could solve the problem.
Acezzz01
Blender crashes each time i try to render! >:(
contmike
wow :O that's odd...try changing the integrator and performance options

This is so cool! I was looking for a futuristic rebel sort of guy, and this guy fits the role! Only thing is, can you take off the helmet or something to show the face?
contmike
Thank you! I am happy that you like it :) Sorry but I didn't make face for this model. :( He has no head or body, only the armor. I wish I could help, but right now I don't have time to make a decent head for him. :(
madmanrex
i wish i could be half as good as you
contmike
Wow! Thank you very much for the compliment! :)
JimmyThePro
man i really want to use this for my game ( credits go to you ofcourse) but im having a really hard time with it....on the pose.blend i dont see the armor i just see some lines.........(note : im not an expert)
contmike
Is the armor_rigging.blend in the same folder as the pose.blend? Because the assets are linked from that .blend. If yes, check the File -> External data -> Report missing files, and then read what Blender says in the console. It should tell you what .blend file and where is it looking for.
JimmyThePro
Ok, well you can download a pic here : http://www.mediafire.com/?ih1nkgqwwna34si
also when i click report missing files it says path not found 0.0
contmike
Yes, it says: Warning: Path Not Found and after this it shows you in quotation marks what Blender is looking for. For example it writes me: "D:\Blender\Projects\Future soldier\armor_rigging.blend" Check what it writes for you, and copy the armor_rigging.blend into that folder.
judge blender
REALLY AWESOME!
contmike
Thank you! :)
randipa99
can I use this model in my game ???
contmike
The license permits it if you credit me, so you can use it. But someone said to me here that it is too complicated for a game. But if you can make it work I would love to see what do you come up with :)
randipa99
Thanks ( credites goest to you, don't worry) What do you mean by too complicated.
contmike
Maybe he was talking about the vertexcount because it is pretty high around 39000 vertices without subsurf...I wasn't familiar with the edge crease option at the time so I put supporting edges everywhere to make the armor look sharper...
Flexionsensor
Totally using this in one of my videos.
contmike
Haha I'm glad :D I would love to see it when it is finished.

Hey, Awesome Blend, i'm going to use this in a FPS if thats ok with you. However i need the textures so that it would look good in game. Thanks.
contmike
Thank you! You can use it of course I would love to see what you come up with.
SKSTUDIOS
