Hi, all. First of all, please DO NOT flamebait here.

I'm making a game, Project FPS. But I need a model, a robot model to be the final boss of the game.

I have 2 models I found here, but they're not done as characters.

Sorry, didn't understand. The first model is a weapon. It's possible to convert to a character?

Only way your going to get a custom mech is if you pay for it.

Higgins is right.Most likely the only way anyone will make a custom character for you is if you pay them.

I didn't check the links but I'm being mentioned(well close enough that I know they mean me)

Originally it was ment as a gun and the arms are kinda connected to the body. I suppose you could use the FPSC animations and remove the layers of the arms and head and such parts of the animation. Or take it into your modeling progarm and modify the model to suit your needs.

Really wasn't intended to be a walking entity but I wish you luck and would love to see its use if ya get it straightened out.

but thats for a custom charcter to your desighn that belongs to you and exclusively you. It also comes in different formats. i do work with other engines that cost waaay more than FPSC. That's my general price and it's lower than most you'll find.

That's exactly the type of response we are discussing on this thread right now.

What disturbing13 is offering is a great deal, especially for exclusive rights; which means he only makes money ONCE for all his effort. I wish people would stop basing what media (especially exclusive custom media) costs, off of the cost of FPSC. There's going to come a time when many of the artists here move on to places that will pay them for what their work is worth.

60$ is only 20 an hour if you can do it in 3 hours from start to finish meaning concept-ingame. 20 an hour is cheap. No one can help this system isnt that expensive. Heh, character voice over actors want 100$ an hour( 2 hour min) and thats working non union. You don't wanna go though their agents...thats the price off their sites....

Games aren't cheap if you want custom......

I hate to tell you this...especially since I have brought it up before...but TGC gives you a heck of a deal on its model packs.
If you go outside of FPSC and try to buy comparable models you better have one huge budget...models are not cheap (except for in these forums).
Add in that you are the only person who is using these models and that you have the exclusive rights and license and that they are custom made and Disturbing is making you an excellent deal.
Check and see how much they charge to make models for games.
You'll be grateful you only paid $60.
Modelers don't come cheap.
The forum members ought to be grateful that people release free and offer low cost models here.
You won't find any kind of deals close to the ones you get on the TGC forums.Period.

Thr forums are full of kids and cheap people and they have it in their head that models grow on trees. Pay up or get lost.

I'm not asking for a brand new exclusive model.

I'm just asking if anyone can convert the first model (in my first post) into a character model (enemy).

Is it possible?

By the way, is there any free .x to .3ds converter?

I told you what and how you could do it. It's no simple task. Because it's not ment to be a moving figure you have to; import it into your modeling prog/break the arms from the waist section/replace polys/re-UVmap/rig/animate.

Basically it's nearly as much work as making a new mech only that you have a little of the base to work with.

Not sure how else to tell you this but I'd think I'd know considering I made the model in the first place your talkin about.

You mean the .max file? I mean it was never converted to 3ds...it was converted to .x. I don't think I've got a version left where it's still all in pieces(as in upper arm/elbow/forearm/cockpit piece/gun). All I've got is the version you yourself could convert. You'd want this all in pieces to animate cause you wouldn't want joints to bend and distort. It would look funky if the gears on the elbows distorted to move. Or the legs. Machines need to be rigged much different then organic.

I'm going to post the version I use as a converter in another thread as I see by searching for a x to 3ds converter can't be found by the search engine. The threads have to be named right for people to find them.
