Starting on My First Mod Pack – A Quick Post

Ok, so I have had plans for starting my modding “career” with GTA V when it launches later this January and I have already started to do some minor research on what I want to do. Well, I guess I’ll have to wait a bit longer since the game got pushed back to March 24 (instead of January 27).

I would have wanted to get the game before starting to design the models and what not, to get an understanding of polycount, texture size, etc. and also for how the RAGE engine works. But I honestly can’t wait so…

My first mod will be a big one; WW2 Weapons Pack. 

This pack will feature around 40 weapons from different countries and will be ranging from melee weapons, pistols, assualt rifles, sniper rifles, etc. 40 weapons is… quite a lot and will be replacing most of the weapons in the game, so this will be a massive mod! But it will take a lot of time which might result in me uploading weapons separately.  

I would assume that a lot of people are not interested in WW2 and weapons from that era might not be exciting, but I have always been interested in it and those weapons have a certain charm to them. It will also be great training for me with hard surface modeling and texturing so it won’t matter if the mod doesn’t get popular. 

I have been doing a lot of school assignments lately but I snuck in some time to start with some models:

Luger pistol – WIP

Malarkey and Hoobler would be proud.

EDIT:

Should be doing school work…

This needs to be cleaned…
