by the way i just want to point out that, without bungie's permission to use the models outside the game for pep or for fan movies is a voilation of their terms of use and CAN be prosicuted, and know that the xbox had to be modded to get the files, microsoft can and will ban the console ids permenetly..... i used to work for xbox live support, and since i'm in game design i should know this stuff...... again i'm just saying

Ok. I have always been sceptic to release the ripped models I got:p

But if anyone here didn't know, all the LD Mark VI pepakura files on the Halo Pepakura File Index is ripped from halo 3:p And they have been up for almost 3 years now without any problems:)

well i guess as long as you don't say where u got it from you can get away with it, you could always use the ripped models as references for detailing

I'm sorry, guys. I was a bit busy during the past couple of days. I'm still work on the armor, though.

I'm trying my best to get the boot file unfolded and uploaded here as fast as I can.

It's shouldn't take much longer to get done.

No problem:)
 
Just as a disclaimer, I'm not angryXD

Is there any point of keeping this tread open? The only guy which is kind enough to unfold these files is ACDCrockr209. It seems that almost nobody cares about these files. It's been a month now since I gave these files to the forum, so you guys could use them to make your armor out of the same models which is used in Reach. I could just kept them for my self and be a selfish a-hole. But I see now that putting these files up was a mistake. Here is why:

3D modelers such as myself have spent hours making pepakura models from scratch. We have tried to make them as close to the game as possebile. And then I suddently come: "Hey guys I got the models from the game! Now nobody have to use the models which was created by the generous people of the 405th." I don't want that to happen. But I'm not gonna lie. I found the ODST game model incredebily usefull!

So I want you guys to tell me if you want these files or not. If not I will put down the files immediately.
Thanks for your time

Oh and Btw. Just a little message to ACDCrockr209. Thank you so much for your time and effort in unfolding these files!

Yes the files are nice and thank you Jico for releasing them, i would unfold some parts but my unfolding skills are bad :(

They are great references but frankly I think the work you and the other modelers have done is better for most purposes. These are great for foam but a lot of the detail comes from the normal maps which still has to be manually created. A lot of that has already been accomplished. Re-distributing things directly from these models is pretty dubious if not straight up in the realm of copyright violation. Re-creating them from images generated by the game is definitely safer. I would still love to see all the helmets and especially attachments come out though.

I understand you are not angry but I am not sure what you are looking for from your post because it does seem to have a bit of a negative bent. More participation for unfolding? More praise? More use?
 
If you need help I am willing to unfold some of the less complicated parts. I am still leaning but I would like to lend a hand.
 
wow. well, just thought id let you know, after being sick for a week, im back in the saddle. i said id test build, and by god im gonna test build. got the hand plate done. working on the guantlet, which is amazingly hard to scale.
heh heh, ill have these done reall soon.
 
I personally don't see why the files can't stay. I, for one, am absolutely stoked to see some of the helmets and upgrades (I'm really looking forwards to seeing the Security and GUNGNIR helmets).

The Halo 3 files are in the Wiki and that's never stopped anybody from going in and making much higher-definition files based upon them. It's hardly a kick in the teeth to modellers to turn around and say 'hey, these are the original models' because they can take those files and use them to ensure a greater degree of accuracy in their own models. They're a great asset for people wanting to improve on their work.
 
 
well, very little progress with the builds. bout half the wrist done.
jico, once again could i build these models and post pics like with the helm?
anyway,is someone working on the chest?
