I don't think these would be very good for first person, but for third person or RTS games these would ok. I assume you have the rights to the pictures you used for the textures?

SamHH,
I would think they're ideal for First Person, I'm using them directly in my FPS Engine, they look pretty good to me.

Oh and, yes I used pictures as reference and backbone for the textures, but they are still from scratch. Some small things like the logos, clips, safety, and the tiny specific details that would look better are from the original. But yes of course, I e-mailed the picture owners for rights on those minor details.
Thanks for reminding me to clear that up, in case anyone else was wondering.

What would you believe to be better for First Person? I'd really love some constructive criticism, it could really help for the next model packs to be released!

Thanks very much Sam,

Update!

I'm making the models FPSC ready and I'm also going to sell in the TGC Store. However, they will be priced a tad bit higher in the TGC Store.

There are now a couple new packs in the works... and also an application that will be added to the store for free!

Well, could you post also wireframes? It would be easier to give you some C&C...

Well, TBH they aren't very good... The main thing is: they're flat. They aren't cardboard cutouts, but they're looking like they were made in one view only.
Second thing: they lack in details. F. ex. sights surely aren't just boxes like you've made (and EVERY pistol has them - in your pack only 2 have them).
Somertimes they don't match the gun's shape (like front of Beretta or the "bump" in the middle of Glock. Also have to mention that magazine is never like "[]", they're like "\\" [hope you understood, forgot how to call that] and the hole in Colt where the empty shells come out is IIRC one-sided)
If you ask me, after some modifications they'll be nice 3rd person models but for 1st person IMO it would be better just to make new with a higher poly budget...
Hope that helps...

Well, FPS weapons are usually at least one or two thousand polies; yours are closer to about 600, and so they're several lacking detail, especially the glock and jericho. They look very flat, as if you just modeled the most basic shape of the gun then relied on the texture for everything else, which especially doesn't work considering the textures look to be about 512x512; fairly low-res.

But all things considered they're pretty good. Nice job.

Thanks for the great critisicm Accoun!
I really appreciate it. I'll keep all these things in mind when I create a model pack with weapons that do have a more high poly budget.
I guess my excuse for lacking those things is that I wanted the models to be low-poly, and then again who is going to complain when I've priced the models so low

Thanks,
Xenocythe

Basically its just the detail level that standard for fps weapons now, basically just model more of the parts of the gun.

Very cool, thanks.

By the way, your store was quite nice as well.



Look forward to a new pack that is near completion!

There is definitely a market out there for low-low poly FPS weapons. However, you really need to learn proper UV techniques to make the models worth asking money for. It also appears that the models weren't built with moving parts which is going to make them look extra bad in FPP. Not to be overly critical but I think you need to improve your craft before asking money for your work because right now it just looks like you're trying to get paid for learning.

Also, keep in mind that even though you may have permission to use the photos, the copyright logos (IMI, Beretta, etc) are a seperate legal issue. Those need approval from the copyright holder(s) of the logos and would need to be approved for the specific game in which they are displayed. So, by including those trademarks, you are creating a legal trap for your customers.

SMD_3D Interactive,
Thanks! I appreciate you seeing what this thread was about. I'll try to make just as good banners for the next packs P.s. if you like the guns, check them out on the store, you might be interested in buying them, hehe.


Errant AI,
I completely agree with you. To be honest, one reason I decided to price the five guns so lowly was because I knew the UV map wasn't used to it's potential. I'll have you know, however, that since this pack was complete (3 weeks ago) I was doing nothing but practicing UV maps and creating higher quality textures in my photoshop cs3. Thanks for the constructive crit. While I've decided to keep the '5 weapons for $4' rule for the next weapon packs to come, the quality will be enough to make the pack worth way more than the money you're paying for it.

Don't worry, for you will not be disappointed in the next packs, concerning quality of the models and UV maps!


Thanks,
Xenocythe

Mr Modeler,
Lol, I cleared that up in this post if you didn't read already I guess your saying that it looks pretty good, so thank you I understand that the last two don't look as great, but I did the best I could.

@Everyone,
Still waiting to set up for the TGC store set-up, however I am making them FPSC ready and I'll be fixing the 'logo' copyright biz mentioned above. Thanks!
