Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 14/02/2026So I lost all of the mod progress I made in Creation Kit. I don't know why it wouldn't load my parts into the object template despite displaying properly. I spent all day today setting everything up and trying to power through it, all for what? I feel do defeated. I just kinda wanna die. 000
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 14/02/2026Words cannot describe how much I hate Creation Kit right now. Besides being a general pain in the ass, didn't load my weapon parts on the object template because sure fine ok another problem, then killed itself when i tried to save. Like nobodys going to care about this mod anyways whats the point 000
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 12/02/2026I was hesitant about using NifSkope for so long because parts would be imported in wrong positions and every tutorial was like "yeah just reposition it by hand." It's because some of the nodes aren't zeroed. Like now I can actually accurately position my parts. Why didn't anyone tell me this sooner? 010
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 07/02/20263DS Max 2013 is part of the official work flow for Fallout 4 because of a plugin for .nif files. Surely it's not still like that, like please tell me they weren't using 2013 with Starfield. You can't even officially get 2013 anymore. 100
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 02/02/2026These games are like the antithesis to me; slow, not action packed, requiring a lot of reading. And yet they are heavily influential to the kind of writing and worldbuilding I really love. Also the RPG mechanics and the way everything is itemized is really cool to me. 000
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 01/02/2026I do not recommend getting in debates on Twitter. Ain't doing that again. 000
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 28/01/2026Yeah that's kinda what I was going for with the current optic, Nydar plus okp-7 with some extra bits. 000
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 28/01/2026I've seen a couple mods with working grenade launchers and it might as well be magic to me, lol 110
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 28/01/2026A bipod handguard could be cool and got one optic so far. 100
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 28/01/2026I'm pretty happy with it, textured it after real bakelite instead of AK bakelite which is a different plastic (AG4). I'm going to need more attachment to fill out a Fallout 4 mod so I'm open to suggestions. 110
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 28/01/2026Making good progress on the Fallout 4 mod. Currently paused because I've decided to hack my 3DS. 000
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 27/01/2026My dissatisfaction with Fallout 4's gun designs is one of the reasons I started 3D modeling lol. 000
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Oh yeah I combined a lot of cues from a lot of guns. To name a few; BAR rear sight, AK stock and mag, but STG44 inspired ammo (7.62 x 33mm in this case) and HK fire selector. I'm hoping to get around to making her into a Fallout mod, just gotta get motivated to endure Creation Kit. 110
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Thank you. I don't think it's *that* good, but I try my best. 000
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 27/01/2026I make every gun with the intention of being in Fallout and my own settings. Mostly because I like them too much and I want to have my cake and eat it too. #gamedev #indiedev #3d #gameart #3DCG 2102
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Attachments and variants. Lore and attachments will be expanded later when I figure out what I want to do :P #gamedev #indiedev #3d #gameart #3DCG 1102
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 24/01/2026World building time. I needed to make some decals for the gun and got carried away. The gun still isn't finished. #gamedev #indiedev 0102
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 22/01/2026I ended up liking it enough that I went back and did some touch ups and might do another texture set for it at some point. 010
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 22/01/2026Changing my texturing process and putting everything in one painter file with each part a different texture set. Still need to make some more optics and I'm missing a few attachment options that I just have no ideas for, notably for the barrel and stock. #gamedev #indiedev #3d #gameart #3DCG 1102
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 20/01/2026One more render. I could definitely add more detail but it's 2 and I'm tired. 010
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 20/01/2026Sword for practice to avoid project burnout. #gamedev #indiedev #3d #gameart #3DCG 2132
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 10/01/2026Trying out different methods of optimization and I almost have it looking seamless. Reduced poly version on the left under the handmade rifle from Fallout 4. High poly bake on the right. #gamedev #indiedev #3d 092
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 05/01/2026F14 Tomcat model I made today. This kit is the worst thing I've assembled yet but I still put in the effort to bring out all the details. 010

Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 18/11/2025I'm not really satisfied with this tbh. The actual asset is fine but just not happy with the render. 000

Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 12/10/2025I've been doing Minecraft sprites for fun for awhile now. Would like feedback before I commit to a full pack. (Shown are my most recent sprites.) #minecraft #pixelart #resourcepack 080
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 09/10/2025Other people's designs are either more interesting to look at or more realistic and I'm stuck in the boring middle unable to make something as interesting or as realistic. 000
Ratel Six @ratelsix.bsky.social · 09/10/2025Giving myself a headache trying to figure out how to improve my designs. There a million and one ways and I don't know the right one. I'm scared of under or over designing and scared of getting bogged down in a long project with no return. Focusing on anything is hard. 100
