So, if somebody knows a tutorial about coding a sniper rifle into a mod, then i'd like to give it a try.
wtf? You coded a sniper rifle in my mod!!
Posted 18 years ago2005-11-09 14:19:00 UTC Post #146223
dont make fun of old weapons. take the colt 1911
its been in active use threw first world war, second, the vietnam war. hell... its still in use.
you can push your barettas and socoms up your stinkholes, cause the c1911 is a REAL handgun :nuts: :heart:
Posted 18 years ago2005-11-09 15:09:30 UTC Post #146232
Its outdated and has been replaced by the 92fs and the socom.

And really, its not old since the last version. yes, the basic design is very old but it has changed a lot to modern standards. Evolving to the .45.

the mini-14 you got pictures of wasn't from WW-II.

its a cold war era M14 that was shrunk. the M14 is an activly used rifle in the Delta Force.

so its not a relic of WWII, although the design for the M14 did come out either in late WWII or Vietnam (can't remember)
Posted 18 years ago2005-11-10 02:48:45 UTC Post #146310
Oooh.. The M14 carbine? I know that one...
Attach a shotgun to it! Attach a shotgun!! :D

nah. grenade launcher! Grenade launcher!

oooh. how cool would it be if you code code it for Semi-Automatic & Automatic modes. AS WELL as Shotgun or Grenade Launcher.

It used both anyways

Well I dunno bout semi auto and full atuto modes..
They are mostly useless in wpns that aren't 1shot 1kill powerful.
And the m4 carbine can have either a shotgun or a grenade launcher.
I'd say that you could make 2 slots for the m4, one m4 with the shotgun and one m4 with the grenade launcher.
Btw - the m4 carb. has a 4x scope.
I played Delta Force - I know.. :)

just because its wood and steel doesn't mean its old.

AND, this is the MINI-14, not the M-14, so no full auto.

Google found the pics

M-14 = semi + full auto, 7.62mm.

(this is a 3d model of one)

Mini14 = semi auto, 5.56mm

and they do make newer Mini's, google or go to the ruger site for pic's. the new one is that matte black plastic/metal combo. I like the wood one I sent pictures to pepper of better.
there different

know your guns

EDIT:
The gun I sent the pics of was manufactured in the Ruger factory 40miles from me in 1994. Then sold that same year at hogans alley, which was once a very large gun store, but now has conveted to become the largest paintball + airsoft store in my state. so its no where near a WWII gun

I wrote this like 20 posts ago! That the mini 14 is a sniper rifle, but noooo... :

The M14 is automatic. It's just a rifle, not a sniper. It's what the Americans had in Vietnam for a while.

You are correct on that Rabideh.

Garg, it IS a WWII gun, like it or not. And that is how it looks, and that is also how it will look in-game if i model it acurate. And yes, they probably still manufacture it today, that is with so many guns isnt it? Dotn we all call the m-15 a modern gun? But we all know its from the vietnam Era(earlier i believe).

no WWII guns in our mod. thats just silly.

Why not make some futuristic-high-tech-wpn?
Since some of the chapters takes place in some secret base, you could have special grunts wielding them.
I could draw some concepts, if you like.. :)

the M-14 is used now as a sniper in some branches of the american military.

and after a quick google I found out that the m-14 was developed after WWII as a replacement for the BAR and the garand. they were used in korea and vietnam, and everyone who used them loved the gun for everything except the weight.

and if you don't want the cold-war/WWII feel, use different textures then pepper, the new ones are black steel, matte black plastic, and some crome around the trigger, chamber, and end of the barrel.

this is the 5p version, the pics i sent were the good old 5

so you can still use my pics as reference for the accual model, just steel the 2 textures from the link above

Daubster, that would be cool!, I think we should just worry about making our mod look like HL2 as much as possible!

All depends on how fast a weapon go's. Also depends on how my free time i have on my hands.

AR2? Havent heard of it? Got a link to some info for me.
Posted 18 years ago2005-11-13 08:02:35 UTC Post #146929
The Irifle, or the Overwatch Standard Issue. HL2 gun.
Not that's a weapon! :glad:
Btw, It's not the m4 - it's the Colt M203
Actually the top one is an M16A2 with the M203, and the bottom is an M4A1 with an M203 attached.

i reckon we can get it done in time. CONCENTRATE ON MAPPING though. if we run out of time, we can still release, new weapons or not.

And we could maybe release an update with new weapons later.

Posted 18 years ago2005-11-15 12:13:27 UTC Post #147238
So, there isn't even decided about what weapons or not while the mod is already long in production? Those things should be planned out if you want to make the best of them. Adding a weapon as an afterthought is, well, just a weapon. It doesn't mean it's usefull or adds anything.
Things have to work together to do well. If this mod is being built without custom weapons in mind, then do it without custom weapons. It'll only get confusing and might mess things up for no good reason.

The model may look extremely smooth deu to using anti aliasing for the render, this removes any jagged lines. Blurs is out a little bit to.
Posted 18 years ago2005-11-16 12:22:34 UTC Post #147402
okay i'd like to take a vote.
I have made my entire chapter playable. im ready and waiting. So, with spare time on my hands the choice is this. Do we want a new hazard course? i personally would really like one.

Feel free to speak your mind even if your not on the team
