r4y30n Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Does anyone else find it silly that the Mr Handy/Mr Gutsy robots float around on a rocket engine all day? I mean seriously, Mr Handy is supposed to be a household robot, how can he help around the house if he's lighting the carpet on fire? Not to mention the fuel efficiency issues... Anyhow, what I humbly request is a return to the classic FO/FO2 Mr Handy/Mr Gutsy that had six arms, a fission battery power plant/SECs and ducted fans. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090821184919/fallout/images/1/10/Fo_Mr_Handy_Render.png http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20050429230461/fallout/images/8/85/Mahandaa_se.gif Mr Handy Article on Fallout Wikia If you wanted a modernized twist to it, you could even add a securitron-style TV screen to it's barrel chest with the face of some pompous butler! On a related note, would there be any interest in a Mr Handy added as a companion or player home appliance to fix the players stuff for free? Or a Sergeant RL-3 style Mr Gutsy companion?

mindboggles Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Yes he's fairly high up on my "to do" list! I've already got as many pictures of him as I can find, but all my custom robots are taking a back seat until The Frontier comes out. In the meantime if anyone who wants the classic Mr Handy has some decent pictures of him I'd like to hear from you. More pictures from different angles makes it easier for me to create the mesh and more accurately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindboggles Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I couldn't help myself! http://i1369.photobucket.com/albums/ag209/Mindboggles/Mr%20Handy%20WIP1_zpsvordb4n6.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokerine Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Oh, he's looking good! I could totally use that in a mod I'm making, depending on when this robot is released... :whistling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindboggles Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Thank you for that, I'm happy with how he's coming along, changed a few things since the picture. Realised half his arms have an extra joint which I've already corrected, built rotors into his pods which I'll animate so they spin, and I'm just figuring out how I go about handling his mini gun. Really can't say when he'll get finished just depends what's on my plate each week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokerine Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I can no longer look at Handy robots the same way. Keep thinking they'll set the house on fire! :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindboggles Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 An update pic, this is just a static mesh to test scale and tweak textures. http://i1369.photobucket.com/albums/ag209/Mindboggles/Mr%20Handy%20Static%20Test%204_zpsajtbtid2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokerine Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Oh, that's looking great! Man, I am so tempted to wait until this is playable before I beg you for permission to use it... Looking forward to it! :woot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindboggles Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Well he / she / it is getting there, got all the basic movement animations done and the dismemberment and ragdoll all work properly. I'm following the Wiki which says they did have mini guns but due to a weapon stat issue almost never used them. I still have to make all the attack animations which will be a lot of work considering I have to co-ordinate the hands and movement of the mini gun when pulled out of his / her backside (you can just see the tip of it in the pic). http://i1369.photobucket.com/albums/ag209/Mindboggles/Mr%20Handy%20WIP%203_zpso5e8tfko.jpg You can have first dibs on them when I finish Jokerine on condition you don't make a follower out of one, and eventually I'll release them as a modders resource.
