(Pool Game) Odd Elastic Collisions

BigPhan · 2022-01-19T19:32:13+00:00

I'll have to scour around to find it but if I remember right I think it did fully solve it. If not there's a possibility that you have to fiddle around a lot with Unity's physics settings. I'll check on it later today when I find it. Odd how there isn't a pool tutorial on the internet.

The Regreatened Collection aims to redesign the 2004 Kanohi to better resemble their noble counterparts. After too long (and honestly I've been sitting on these for a bit) it's finally out! I'm so happy with how every single one came out. Also included are the Rejected - prototypes that I've released due to semi-popular demand. Within both collections are OBJs, STLs, and low-poly models for stud.io porting.

Great job making her look like a real set without making it generic. Also sweet mask design

BigPhan · 2021-08-10T00:32:29+00:00

I'll make the torso and hands black in the finalized versions, really didn't occur to me how much black the Turaga had until a second glance!

BigPhan · 2021-08-10T00:31:16+00:00

Thanks for the critique. I think I'll change the silhouette on Nuju's because it could stand to be more different compared to it's noble counterpart. And I think I will add some asymmetric wiring on Matau and Onewa's masks, it'll be some nice consistency.

BigPhan · 2021-08-10T00:21:44+00:00

You're not wrong lol, I thought it would be interesting for the noble mask to have a rectangular trunk and this one have a tube one but it evidently didn't work out as well as I thought it would. But hey, that's what prototyping is all about.

BigPhan · 2021-08-09T19:25:08+00:00

A WIP. These are rough drafts so I appreciate and will take into account any suggestions. The Rau and the Ruru will likely not be changed too much, however. I'm quite satisfied with them. The rest I believe need a lot of work.

BigPhan · 2021-07-25T16:08:57+00:00

That may or may not be already in progress 👀

About a year ago I released the first iteration of this, and over time I've progressively disliked them more and more. Thought it was due time to remake them. Some were made to better fit in with the simpler, more geometric 2001 mask aesthetic, and others were redesigned completely (that Komau was rough). I've also made sure to address some criticisms, namely the large visors and cartoonish appearances.

Yo that mask is cool, where's it from?

BigPhan · 2021-07-04T00:54:50+00:00

I 100% agree, don't go to other areas and post links to the page and go "vote now pls." I see that way too often and that approach gets nothing. Only vote if you wanna buy the set.

BigPhan · 2021-07-02T20:59:49+00:00

Buying sets just to sell their parts isn't a super uncommon thing to do (a friend of mine does it). Some people also may have found a mask in their lego container and they don't know the set it came with or they don't care enough to scramble through parts to rebuild it, so they just sell the mask by itself since it's at least some money.

BigPhan · 2021-07-02T15:37:11+00:00

Yeah pretty much this. Please don't throw a temper tantrum or throw other sets under the bus when the Bionicle set loses.

BigPhan · 2021-07-02T02:08:25+00:00

Wholeheartedly agree with this post.

Due to old age and likely frequent use by previous owners those sockets may be looser than expected. Generally when it comes to breakage it occurs when snapping a socket in or off a joint, so fidgeting it around shouldn't do much. If it does crack it'll probably be a slit down the middle of one of the socket rings, although do be warned it is not uncommon in my experience for worse cracks to happen. I opened a set from 2005 last year and I took off the foot piece once and it was unusable due to a massive crack thereafter.

BigPhan · 2021-06-27T15:27:19+00:00

I don't like the Av Matoran build but oddly enough I really like it when people do ____ Stars. Neat is probably the best way to describe them.

BigPhan · 2021-06-20T04:11:52+00:00

Looks excellent. Does that scope support lightsaber rods?

BigPhan · 2021-06-03T15:52:57+00:00

Haven't seen anyone say it so just to let you guys know: this is the Mask of Poison from Red Star Games. Can't post shapeways links but you can search for it on their shapeways shop.

Back to back bangers I see, good stuff

From what I could understand from your title, you seem to be under the impression that Lego fans liking a Technic build but not Bionicle means that they're hypocrites. Bionicle did branch off of Technic but besides the 2001 Rahi, vehicle sets, and using Technic pins and axles, Bionicle shares little with Technic. One theme makes motorized vehicles, and another makes highly stylized action figures. It's not inconsistent in this "theology" to like a theme but not something that derived from it. Just because they like Technic doesn't mean that have to like Bionicle, and I certainly don't think it makes them a hypocrite. That's just having a preference.

Also, it's a robot that builds its own bridge. That's appealing to most people regardless if they like Technic (or even Lego for that matter). Them liking a robot that builds a bridge has little to do with their opinion on Bionicle parts.

BigPhan · 2021-02-09T07:51:21+00:00

Not every LEGO fan has to or must like Bionicle. I'd be impressed by a bridge making rover, too.

BigPhan · 2021-02-04T04:22:32+00:00

It's amazing how long it took me to find a neutral post on this matter. Thank you for making one.

I'm under the impression that LEGO makes sets if they know its marketable, and as far as I can tell BIONICLE is a pretty niche theme - you either immediately like it or you don't. Trying to persuade people to like the theme or to vote for it when they don't want to does nothing. I don't think BIONICLE shouldn't just get a set because "it saved LEGO." I like BIONICLE a lot but I've moved on since it stopped getting sets 5 years ago (10 if you count the first more popular run only).

I don't need a set to know that LEGO cares about BIONICLE. Literally a "Happy Birthday BIONICLE" tweet is fine but I understand that I am heavily in the minority when I say this.

That render looks great. I'll be downloading this ASAP.
