Model description       : The hero, naturally, since the games are named after him. A humanoid robot built as Rock by Dr. Light and later turned into the Mega Man we know and love to battle the evils of Dr. Wily. Mega Man is equipped with his buster cannon and the Weapon Copy system which lets him literally take weapons from defeated foes.

This model was one of the many projects I am using to better my modeling skills, and since I figured out how to add new characters to Unreal Tournament 2004, I wanted to add him in.  This model and several others I have done may lead to a Mega Man mod for Unreal Tournament 2004... but at this point, I don't know if I will go through with it.  So instead, I decided to at least release this model to the public!

Known Bugs              : The main bug is that I removed the gun from the model so that Mega Man would use his buster to fire all of the weapons.  However, this also removes the flag in CTF.  Haven't found a way around it yet.

When riding in a vehicle, Mega Man is lifted slightly off the seat in the air.  Mega Man's left shoulder is sticking out a bit too far in his animations, and it got to me after awhile... I'll take care of it sooner or later and repost.
