Any requests? I've recently decided to get back into making weapons. I've started a Sai knife as well as a new, hopefully not buggy sword.

A folding fan that doesn't fold? Useless.

About the fan: should it have like, wavy ridges on the side or just look flat?

Because making it look from above like:

VVVVV
Instead of
_________

Would be hard, though it'd be cooler looking.

Awesome, I finished it! I also found out what was wrong with the sword...so you may see that one coming soon as well!

Now, without further ado...

Finally, relive all of your favorite Kung-Fu movie action with your VERY OWN SAI!

That's right folks, the long requested item is finally here!

Now you too can walk with pride, a Sai slung at your waist!

I'm thinking of making something like an axe or clube to be used as a replacement for the staff.

Staff always seemed like a somewhat random weapon to bring...spear or halberd maybe, but then the staff doesn't have blood and the like...

His axes are good, but I'd like to make one that's...different.

Hi Stromboli,

please use Brainfart for conversion and report whether or not it does its job well.

Get Brainfart here:
http://www.alice-dsl.net/wolf.mathwig/tools/brainfart/
Tutorial for modeling for and using Brainfart:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f23s7mNs1Pk
Hires version (download): http://www.zshare.net/video/54394704221c262f/
Post about changes:
viewtopic.php?p=67903#p67903

The central difference compared to previous versions and x2solid is that you have to export your model to .dae (COLLADA 1.4.x) and convert that. The x format isn't supported anymore (hint: It sucks).
But the big advantage is that the whole scaling and normals inverting crap and the texture mirroring along the X-axis isn't necessary anymore, as opposed to x2solid.

I'm asking this of you because I need feedback whether it does everything as intended.

Thanks!
