I have a friend who cant scale the HEV suit from half-life right.

he is 6 feet, but the standard scale is 5"6'

how could I scale this for him? thanks guys!
 
I can't load pep at the moment (rendering) but I'll see if I can dig out the scales I used for mine as soon as I'm done. I'm about 5'11" so it might be a step in the right direction...

That's what I used, me being about 5'11".

I think that's everything, hope it helps.
 
Appologies for the bump, but I was the one who was asking for help, but I'm just so nervous about posting on here...

That's odd... I plan on making the lower left arm piece first (for practice) and the default scales are as follows:

250mm high

196mm wide

111mm deep

Scale: 4.360276



And these default settings were for someone with a height of 5'6"?

Thanks so much, but do you think Method 1 would work for the current images that exist of Freeman? There aren't many official images out there. I suppose I'll give Method 2 a try and see how that goes.

To each his own. Tactics' method was for people who weren't sure of the dimensions in relation to their own body. What you do (and I do for most pieces) works for a nice custom fit. (especially if you have long arms or whatnot)



Sorry for the jack.





If you send my the link for the files, I'll take a look at the scales.

here are a couple of (not great) references

If you scroll down, there should be a couple.







Cheers!

Here's a link to the hosted files, and they're all to (null).exe's measurements I believe.



I'm scouring my house looking for a measuring tape, and I know I have one somewhere. When I find it, I'll post my own measurements.
