Marzy's 3.1 tommy for DoD1 can be found in dodec.hlgaming.com
the reload anime is the anime from 3.1 tommy (not marzy's - original).

I would like it if some1 will convert the anime for that tommy to fit Marzy's tommy, zip it up and upload it here in the forums :-)
Thanks in advance.

I looked into doing this once, but because the anim's where more realistic and longer in 3.1, and not like the arcade ones we see in dod 1.1 the time scale is much longer, so you would have to speed up the reload anim's FPS to fit the time scale of DOD 1.1, that i think it would look to fast.

Really ? well i understand, It's pretty sad... :-(

That anime was so nice and powerful, you saw the soldier banging the clip hard into the weapon and moving the bolt ? not sure if it's call a bolt too and charging the weapon :-)

so basicly what you are saying is that the reload anime would play but if you will press to fire in the middle/end of the anime it will suddenly change to the firing one?

I never knew that one of the changes from 3.1 to 1 was speeding up the reload time of SMGs.

Ok i've just had a quick look at the work i did at adding the 3.1 reload anim, and if i make the FPS around 70 - 80 it should fit the time scale of 1.1. Ill have to tweak the anim though so the sleeve does not clip into the tommy, as the sleeves where thinner in 3.1, so never clipped into the tommy, and ill also have to edit the clip so the texture changes on the right side rather then the left. I'm going to try and sort a release of the Sten today, then ill look into sorting this out, see if i can make a good job of it.

No probs Mortar, like i say i already had a look into it sometime ago, but you asking for it, has now made me go back and start to finish it off. Ok i've adjusted the left arm and hand, so the sleeve does not cut into the tommy, and i've adjusted the hand so it grips the tommy a little different then the original anim, but i think it's looking ok upto now.

And because i know you will probably ask..the sten is more or less finished, just sent it to Jed to look over, and to get his opinion on weather or not we should change anything before it's released. So hopfully not long now, before you find yourself playing more on the brit maps for a while....:).

Ok i've just the clip texture to sort out, so the texture changes from empty to full, there was also some clipping of the righthand showing through the right sleeve when pulling the bolt back, i've fixed this up aswell.

Ill try and maybe finish it later if i get the time.
