This book is all meat and cuts right to the point - modeling and texturing game weapons like a professional. Written by Christian Chang, lead weapons modeler on America's Army and now at EA, this book delivers what the reader wants. Starting with a discussion on customizing your modeling application for ease of use, the book emphasizes the importance of employing professional techniques when setting up your project. From there, the chapters concentrate on creating specific weapons - from a samurai sword to a modern high-velocity, fully-automatic machine gun - in a step-by-step progression from simple to complex. Each weapon is modeled, UV mapped, optimized, and finally textured for realism.

Modeling, UV Mapping, and Texturing 3D Game Weapons
Anybody who is seriously developing interfaces for Kinect must read this book. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the mountain of work in 3D interaction techniques that occurred years before project Natal (which later became Kinect)was even an idea to be approved or rejected on some executive's desk at Microsoft. It summarizes design recommendations for system commands, navigation techniques, and even methods of evaluation based on the body of work done by researchers in the mid-90s, when virtual reality was all the rave.
There are of course some differences between the mocap-style tracking used for these interaction techniques and the 3d mesh + skeletal tracking provided by the Kinect, so these recommendations should all be taken with a grain of salt. Nevertheless, the book provides a great foundation and seeds for ideas that are essential for any researcher or developer designing interaction techniques, games, or user interfaces for the Kinect.
