Known as "Goodwrench" in Aftrmath.ini, I decided to model it based off a real socket wrench and my own design. The text reads "GM GOODWRENCH," a small parody of the actual GM Goodwrench service.

There isn't much else to say about it, besides the fact that the Mechanic is the only unit able to repair damaged vehicles in the field. He can take a near-death unit to full health in a matter of moments.

The wrench is made in the United States, where the Mechanic hails from. You'll understand when you hear him in-game...

"Huhuhuhuhu, shoooooooore thing boss. Yeeeeeeeehaw! I'll get my wrench!"

Never recruit a European city boy to do what a southern country boy does best: Repair vehicles.

Both the model and the texture were done by myself.

Ignore any abnormal looking spots, it isn't using smoothing groups, so the W3D lighting can be a little strange.

nice texture job for the metal but it can look more real.

I have a way to make it look like real metal. It's a an effect of the w3d engine that TheKGBspy created for such things. But I think u don't need our help... ( but If you want it, we can. )

It already utilizes an advanced function meant for that very purpose. The reflection is both dynamic in proprerty and reacts to the position of light.

The wrench still shoots blue beams, right?

Of all the weapons updates, I find this one the most fascinating lol. How exactly is this going to work in game? Will the mechanic just do some swishing movements with his hands as he "repairs" tanks? Or will it shoot blue beams? Very Happy > Razz

It would be interesting to see this beauty used as a melee weapon...

Just for the sake of it, you should rip Half-Life and make the mechanic's weapon a crowbar, with an alt-fire melee attack. Also, the model could use one more polygon on the top.

Nah, it won't be a blue beam. He'll just wave it in the air...or something similar, then it'll make some socket tightening noises...

So you were lying when you made that post on 21 May, showing a Mammoth Tank in-game with what appears to be a specular lighting effect?

God Damn, its just a game, games aren't supposed to be realistic, thats what the outside world is for.
It looks fine as it is, nobody gives a damn whether it is like a real life model, its a damn wrench, nothing more.

The RenAlert team sure gives a damn about making the models look like real life.

Err, forget it, lol.

Sorry NeoX.

Actually, to make it look real, it would need a chromish look, but it doesn't matter, it's fine like it is.
