Default Made a Laser Mammoth Tank model but don't know how to map it

Hey everyone...I've made my first model for Zero Hour. It's a mammoth tank type unit with three laser turrents. The model is currently in GMax but i don't know how to properly map out the UVs. I tried following a tutorial that used ChilliSkinner script, but it ended in failure. If anyone could lend some insight or their own modeling skills, it would be greatly appreciated. I would just like to point out that I can handle making the actual skins and getting the code into the game, i just need some help getting the darn thing mapped.

I don't know, ask w888, he seems to be pretty good with triple barelled laser tanks, oh yes, and snoot.....don't ask. Anyways, welcome to Deezire Forums! Try just applying some basic skins first, like maybe a monochromatic color skin, then find out how you can make that get in the game, then just build off of it.

Default Gmax model pic

This is what I've got in Gmax. Like I said before the only hold up i have with it is how to correctly give it UV mapping.

You meant "I used Fritz's Mammoth to make one with lasers"

Yes, if your going to kitbash *using other peoples models/the games models* in your models, please give credit for all parts. It looks like you just took Fritz's chassis, then copy pasted the Lasers from one of Towne's units, but the turret base looks pretty good.

And how could we forget Fritz's brother as a mongolian heroine?

What's with all the veils? It might be some religious rule for some but he's taking it to some kind of fetish extreme...

I find the whole multiple barrel fascination very odd. To me it makes aboslutely no sense. Even more so with laser units. Isn't the whole point of laser weapons percision... And why would you add multiple barrels that makes it awkward to control and hard to aim when you could just make one huge ass barrel for the same weight. It also makes models look unprofessional and just plain weird. Especially when its two low poly barrels. lol, just make one higher poly barrel...
Its like mechs. It just doesn't make sense. Except mechs look cool... multi barrels don't.
lmao, killakanz. You really get a kick out that w888 guy I think I'll change my rank to Snoot Fiend.
