-------------------------------------- Product Name: Old West Gatling Gun Copyright 06-26-2013 (c) Robert Blanda By: Robert Blanda Contact: Cybertenko -------------------------------------- System Requirements: PC, Poser 6 and higher, (not tested on MAC, need minor adjustments in DAZ studio) -------------------------------------- Product Description: The Gatling gun is one of the best known early rapid-fire weapons and a forerunner of the modern machine gun. It was invented by Richard Jordan Gatling, it is known for its use by the Union forces during the American Civil War in the 1860s, which was the first time it was employed in combat. The Gatling gun's operation centered on a cyclic multi-barrel design which facilitated cooling and synchronized the firing and reloading sequence. Each barrel fired a single shot when it reached a certain point in the cycle, after which it ejected the spent cartridge, loaded a new round, and in the process, cooled down somewhat. This configuration allowed higher rates of fire to be achieved without the barrel overheating. Our model presents some of later designs, particularly 10-barreled model 1874, widely used in many western movies and stories. Included are: 4 component figures: Gatling gun 1874, Broadwell Feed, Straight Feed, Tripod Stand, Wheel Carriage 2 multifigured presets: Gatling on Tripod, Gatling on Carriage 2 additional props: muzzle flash and ejected shells 25 material poses for various parts of the model (can be combined) 4 multi light presets (sunrise, day, sunset and night) 2 operator poses for either M4 and V4 Ownership Statement: All of this product's content was created by Robert Blanda and may include derivatives of the following vendor/merchant resources: Royalty free textures from www.cgtextures.com,FALLOUTIC: Rust Textures by Coflek-Gnorg, Pure Dragons2 by Sasha Dawnn. -------------------------------------- Installation Instructions: Poser: Unzip into any poser runtime. You will find the items in Character, Light, Pose and Props folders named OW Gatling Gun. Geometries, Textures and Reflection Maps are stored in respective folders. -------------------------------------- Usage Tips or Limitations: The model in all its possible variants consist of several poser figures. There is gatling gun itself and two types of stands - wheel carriage and tripod and two types of magazines: Broadwell feed and straight feed. Each figure has several bodyparts which movement or appearance is controlled via ERC master dial located at Body. These master dials are mostly used for synchonized movement, like gun barrels and winding crank is synchonized into one master dial. Some difficult to access body parts or movement is also controlled from master dials. Gun itself have two types of hoppers - one for each type of magazine, chynging of hoppers is made also by master dial. Loaded Magazine need be parented to gun figure (to particular hopper). There are also several parts or lids that can be opened to see things inside. There are all 10 carrier locks and bullets loaded. Each lock can be slide along the chamber and bullet can be hidden (like being ejeceted), so whole loadind process can be simulated if needed. Gun have sevral material zones, like barrel, housing, hopper and lid parts, wooden handles and detailing, to which independetly any of several texture variants can be applied. This mean, there can be applied any desired combination of materials, like brass, highly polished brass, darkened steel, copper and so on. Both magazines are also made as poser figure, mostly for the possibility to simulate some portion of bullets being loaded into gun. There some explanatory pictures at the promos. Both magazines have two texture variants to be choosen from. When loading texture, correct figure need be selected, otherwise wrong material can loads into wrong figure. For use of the gun there are two carriages can be chosen, either wheel army carriage or lighter tripod stand. For both of them two texture variants are available and several ERC dials for controlling movement of gun mount. Gun and both magazines load by default to wheel carriage position, for use of tripod, you need to "move" all figures (gun, feeds) to different position by included poses (just do not forgot to select correct figure, before loading pose.) Finaly there are poses for both Michael 4 and Victoria 4 carriage and tripod variants and four light presets to start your renders. Model is completely UV mapped. For certain parts of models are provided texture templates, other material zones are textured by procedural materials or by tiled textures and templates are not applicable for them. Tiled textures and procedural materials may need adjustments in DAZ studio, Carrara or other 3d applications. All poser props have extracted geometry to obj. mesh files which you can use for importing to other modeling or rendering application. One or more textures on this 3D model have been created with images from CGTextures.com. These images may not be redistributed by default, please visit www.cgtextures.com for more information. -------------------------------------- Files Included in the Product: \Documentation license.txt Old_West_Gatling_Gun_README.txt \Promos OWGG 01 CONCEPT.jpg OWGG 2 FEATURE TH.jpg OWGG 2 FEATURE.jpg OWGG 3 FEATURE TH.jpg OWGG 3 FEATURE.jpg OWGG 4 FEATURE TH.jpg OWGG 4 FEATURE.jpg OWGG 5 POSES TH.jpg OWGG 5 POSES.jpg OWGG 6 MATERIALS TH.jpg OWGG 6 MATERIALS.jpg OWGG MAIN.jpg OWGG THUMB.jpg \Runtime\Geometries\OW Gatling Gun cyb_owgg_broadwell.obj cyb_owgg_carriage.obj cyb_owgg_ejectedshells.obj cyb_owgg_gatlinggun.obj cyb_owgg_muzzleflash.obj cyb_owgg_straightfeed.obj cyb_owgg_tripod.obj \Runtime\Libraries\Character\OW Gatling Gun\Component Figures Broadwell Feed.cr2 Broadwell Feed.png Gatling Gun.cr2 Gatling Gun.png Straight Feed.cr2 Straight Feed.png Tripod Stand.cr2 Tripod Stand.png Wheel Carriage.cr2 Wheel Carriage.png \Runtime\Libraries\Character\OW Gatling Gun\Presets Gatling on Carriage.cr2 Gatling on Carriage.png Gatling on Tripod.cr2 Gatling on Tripod.png \Runtime\Libraries\Light\OW Gatling Gun Gatling Day Light.lt2 Gatling Day Light.png Gatling Night Light.lt2 Gatling Night Light.png Gatling Sun Rise.lt2 Gatling Sun Rise.png Gatling Sun Set.lt2 Gatling Sun Set.png \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun Broadwell Feed for Tripod.png Broadwell Feed for Tripod.pz2 Gatling Gun for Tripod.png Gatling Gun for Tripod.pz2 Straight Feed for Tripod.png Straight Feed for Tripod.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun\M4 and V4 Poses M4 at the Carriage.png M4 at the Carriage.pz2 M4 at the Tripod.png M4 at the Tripod.pz2 V4 at the Carriage.png V4 at the Carriage.pz2 V4 at the Tripod.png V4 at the Tripod.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun\Mat Poses\Barrels Dark Barrels.png Dark Barrels.pz2 Dark Hot Barrels.png Dark Hot Barrels.pz2 Light Barrels.png Light Barrels.pz2 Light Hot Barrels.png Light Hot Barrels.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun\Mat Poses\Carriage New Carriage.png New Carriage.pz2 Old Carriage.png Old Carriage.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun\Mat Poses\Details Brass Details.png Brass Details.pz2 Copper Details.png Copper Details.pz2 Dark Details.png Dark Details.pz2 Polished Details.png Polished Details.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun\Mat Poses\Handles Dark Wood Handles.png Dark Wood Handles.pz2 Fine Wood Handles.png Fine Wood Handles.pz2 Old Wood Handles.png Old Wood Handles.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun\Mat Poses\Housing Copper Housing.png Copper Housing.pz2 Dark Housing.png Dark Housing.pz2 Polished Housing.png Polished Housing.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun\Mat Poses\Magazines Brass Broadwell.png Brass Broadwell.pz2 Brass Straight.png Brass Straight.pz2 Dark Broadwell.png Dark Broadwell.pz2 Dark Straight.png Dark Straight.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun\Mat Poses\Parts Brass Parts.png Brass Parts.pz2 Copper Parts.png Copper Parts.pz2 Dark Parts.png Dark Parts.pz2 Polished Parts.png Polished Parts.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Pose\OW Gatling Gun\Mat Poses\Tripod Brass Tripod.png Brass Tripod.pz2 Dark Tripod.png Dark Tripod.pz2 \Runtime\Libraries\Props\OW Gatling Gun Ejected Shells.png Ejected Shells.pp2 Muzzle Flash.png Muzzle Flash.pp2 \Runtime\Textures\OW Gatling Gun cybertenko_owgg_carriage_dirty.jpg cybertenko_owgg_carriage_fine.jpg cybertenko_owgg_carriage_old.jpg cybertenko_owgg_copper.jpg cybertenko_owgg_gatling_blackgold2.jpg cybertenko_owgg_gatling_brass.jpg cybertenko_owgg_gatling_copper.jpg cybertenko_owgg_gatling_D.jpg cybertenko_owgg_gatling_dirty.jpg cybertenko_owgg_gatling_iron.jpg cybertenko_owgg_metalplate.jpg cybertenko_owgg_muzzleflash.jpg cybertenko_owgg_muzzleflash_T.jpg cybertenko_owgg_rusted4.jpg \Runtime\Textures\Reflection Maps cybertenko_enviro.jpg \Templates carriage.jpg gatling.jpg muzzle flash.jpg
