dillinger makes great weapon models but i wish he would add straps to some of them to make it more realistic...

dillinger's thompson reskin is perfect but it would be better with a plain shoulder strap like many others i have seen.

also, his dark wood m1 garand with capt. glimsharp's anims is great but again, it would look much better with a leather strap for first and third person viewing.

Just for the record I do no modelling. I merely skin things. I can't even model a cube!

That's basically the same exact thing I requested, lol. :D

my mistake about only skinning.... thats a lot more than i can do anyway. i hope someone who does modeling can help us out with this one... it would be a nice touchup for the skins/models.

also, i have a question about your newest m1 carbine skin... its awesome but it seems like the barrel is really thin in first person. is that something you can fix or is it part of the model? i dont know much about those things so bare with me if i sound like a complete moron.

There are some weapon models with slings, such as the 3.1 KAR and some versions of the BAR...

The problem with making slings are the fact that in order for them to be pleasing they have to be animated, and this is a skill which only a very small minority have at the moment...

You must be new to DoD from 1.0 and you're spoiled with the FOV modelling. :D

All the reticules in 1.0 are huge to make up for an erroneous Z axis in the HL engine. Back in 3.1 when that model was released no one really did that, which is why it's thin. Personally I prefer it that way, as the reticules in 1.0 are cartoonishly big. Marzy is enlarging the reticule though, so look for his release.

i used to play medal of honor but i found day of defeat to be much more realistic and fun to play... so yes i started at 1.0.

the default skins for 1.0 were unrealistic and too colorful so ive been trying to find good detailed files for use in the game. the only 2 weapons i am having trouble finding good skins for are the .30 caliber machine gun and the BAR.

i liked your reskin of firegold's BAR but i want a skin that is darker, almost a faded black metal with a nice wood texture for the handle and butt of the rifle.

i also cant find a good, dark skin for the .30 cal like the ones seen in the band of brothers series without a bipod or tripod.

if you feel like giving those a shot, it would be nice because your skins are the best as far as im concerned.

err...the only .30's in BOB are the one w/ tripod and then the one w/ a wood stock and bipod...

most of the time in band of brothers, the machine gunners didnt have their tripods for the .30 cal because they lost them jumping into normandy so thats what i want...

Can someone make a model for this ammo strap and add it onto the butt of Dillinger's newest carbine skin?

And can someone tell me where I can upload my images because pasting these links is a hassle.... thanks.

Someone did this for a p_model a while back. Putting it on a v_model is next to useless, seeing as how you wouldnt be able to see it unless you positioned it way far forward on the screen, which would probably result in clipping errors.

I know... it was on JAJAJU's carbine but I didnt like anything about that model or skin..... Dillingers carbine skin is perfect and this would be a great addition on it.
