Fallout New Vegas

[External Reactor]

Hey guys,

I've played Fallout New Vegas and you know that guy on the cover with that helmet?
Well I'm trying to find a pep file of that helmet but some how I fail to find one, does anyone maybe have a link to that helmet?

I've been trying to find one too, and you're not the only one trying to find one, if I find one I'll post a link to it.

God that helmet is one of the sweatest things I could possibly obtain from this forum but I think you guys might need took ask for some help. get some good pictures of the helmet the full armor and mabey even the duster (but probobly easier to just buy one) thn post the pictures and see if you can get someone to render it up in a 3D design program then if you can't do it get some one to make an unfold of the helmet in pepakura sounds easy enough.... right.

You could try it this guys way instead http://paperkraft.blogspot.com/2010/11/fallout-new-vegas-ncr-ranger-helmet.html

There is a .pdo running around out there. I'm not sure how good it is though, or if it's the same file I've seen pics of.

If you have a deviantart account you can get it here:

I finished getting screen captures the other night, this is going to be my next project. I plan on starting the model of the armor later this week.

Just kidding

It got too cold to work on the ODST gear tonight, so I decided to start on this instead.

Nice, can't wait to see more updates!!!

 

[spartan 847 david]

WOW!! dude I am so lovin it.keep up the awesome work hugh.
P.S.Not to sound like A butt kisser but I found your chest core for the ODST the outher day
and thats the best and most accurate torso ive seen here and so easy to cut and make.
Thanks for everything

Couldn't someone just pull it from the game? Though im not sure if it came out for pc. If not then this idea is completely useless.

 

[DonutPocalpse]

Yeah I downloaded that file, and it's easy to make although you gotta add alot of the details yourself.

But it is a challenge since it's my first helmet ^.^

Yes the game is for the PC too but I don't have it for the PC, it would make it alot easier then to get some good pictures.

Yeah, you can. But the models would be really ugly without the textures. And believe me, converting previously made models over to something you can use is not as much fun as building it the way you need it from scratch.

I can see it as a really good way to use as a base though. But I prefer the traditional approach. The current pep model that is out there is formed from a rip of the game model if I'm not mistaken.

And thanks Spartan! Glad you found it useful

Actual Game model from FO NV.
I was packaging this to send to Nin to unfold, but go for gold guys.

I have edited it the best I can.

Wow thanks for that one, I'm gonna make it straight away!
It's pretty cool since I can improve it because I made some "accidents" with the first helmet's details ^.^

 

[Hugh Holder]

Thanks a lot Deadalus!

I imported this file into my project to check out proportion differences and it has helped a ton. I also cleaned up the file so it is not triangulated just in case anyone was interested. In the meantime, I'm going to continue to break this thing down into a good pep model.

 

[DonutPocalpse]

Whoops I mae the helmet too BIG, oh well...

I got a little problem with your model, I'm not saying it's bad but when I unfold it the parts are like impossible to cut and make.
Is there any way to fix that?

 

[Hugh Holder]

The helm was ripped from the game. It was built to just show silhouette so the geometry isn't going to be pep-friendly. Taking out most of the triangles and leaving the quads is a good start.

But if you leave it as one part like that it will be like a bubble without support = warp city.
I ran a separate geometry command to split the device on the right side from the helm. There is no easy way to pep intersecting geometry.

If you really want to use the game model then you should really try to break it down into separate parts. I'm just using it as a way to gauge proportions on a temp render layer.

 

[DonutPocalpse]

Yeah I edited it a little bit so I can see how I need to cut and glue it, but I gotta admit it's still pretty hard to make.
