and thats also the "EvilGarrett" thinger from Thief 2. I placed on in the start of the bank mission via DromEd and looked at it, and i was like "WTF?! This stick thing is EvilGarrett?! Must be one badass block of wood with a clown face. ::shudders:: Clowns...." Never knew it was the original model from T1/G :laff: ! Thats hilarious! Well, i guess in a world w/o scouting orbs or 3rd person view, the char model really DOESNT matter, lol.

Here's something else. For those of you who've played Deus Ex: Invisible War is Garrett's model in TDS just a recycled male seeker model? I know the two would be similar because of the hoods but i mean they've both got gauntlets, their outfits look neraly the same. I thought Garrett would be wearing something darker then the brown garb.
I think the TDS Garrett went through several variations before they used Garrett_08. Someone emailed me Garrett_07 & they said it was hi-poly. When I got around to it though, it was lower poly than Garrett_08. Anyway, they might have tweaked DXIW's models for TDS but the skeletal bone and poly count is higher in TDS.

kinda makes me think of how HL2 doesn't actually have a model for gordon.

Acutally the modles for the weapons and hands aren't even complete, they only modled what the player sees. The parts that the player doesn't see are just blank, they didn't bother finishing the models. The shotgun for example, has no stock, it just extends untill it's out of screen cause the player wouldn't see the stock ingame anyway.

yeah i know. kind of dumb, though.
one thing that bothers me is in HL2DM where everyone has HEV arms, instead of like, rebel or combine arms. in HL1 yeah okay, but in HL2 that's just laziness.

Do my eyes deceive me, Sluggs, or is that The Order of The Vine you're playing there?
