I know I posted this not too long ago, but I am requesting this again. I have a great image to refer to if you need a visual aide. I already have great p and w models for it, so all I would need is a high res v model... good luck.

this has already been done

it can be found here... (http://dodec.hlgaming.com/main.html)

go to u.s weapon models/30 cal/bot's tripod 30 cal mg

That isn't what I'm looking for... its a completely different looking model than what I have been trying to get... thanks for the help anyway.

Whats different about it? its Black

I don't like the handle and the model looks too long... I just want the default model to lose the bipod and get reskinned to resemble that image I posted.

well all i can say is i don't think u will get what u want because it has already been done above.

The model above that was posted in the screenshot is different. The length of the machine gun is longer and you can easily see how it differs from the image I posted.

If you are talking about the V model, thats the field of view. Thats what will make it look right ingame.

different from your image....how is that, its black OMG recolour it, its got an ammo box wow you can't add the ammo box its been tried. This is as close as you are going to get to your so called "different model".

Here is an image similar to what I'm looking for.

Changes that need to be done:
1. Make the air cooled barrel transparent (get rid of black holes)
2. Reskin the bullet casings to a high res, normal texture
3. Smooth out the metal texture used throughout the skin
4. If possible, stamp it with Browning M1919A1 or something

I hope the image helps you see how the two models differ.

beggers can't be choosey.

all can be done by yourself. Download other files and change the bmps.

Walker, its the same. the first person model is just at a different angle than the one you posted.. if thats wha you like, a simple origin change is all you need.

It looks like the gun is extended in the other screenshot... I don't know if its an origin change or what, but it looks like a different model altogether. I don't know how to mod anything in this game and I had enough of that during MOHAA for a short time so thats why I'm requesting this... no one has to do it im simply suggesting a reskin that would look good.

Actually the model that was made with the tripod, is a new model. it also was made with a very nice skin. when bots re-released it though, he made the origins of the weapon more centered. therfore, the barrel looks different because of the feild of view (FOV). models can look very, very different depending on the FOV. take the default dod weapons, the fronts of them were extremely deformed (wider,longer,etc) to make them look better (worse in some cases) from a certain angle. Origin is another tecnique, yet alot simpler than going out and deforming the model. all it is, is puting it in a different position to look better.

but, i can tell you that what your requesting is right there in this model that bots released. you might prefer a different origin though. otherwise, there is almost no differance between what you're requesting, and the model thats already been made. i can easily re-origin the model if you like.

something like this?

Thank you very much for clearing that up for us... I see what you mean by re-originating the model... makes sense. Bots must have centered the machine gun so it looks longer like you said.

I would appreciate it if you could set it back to the original origins and possibly reskin the handle (darken it). Let me know.

Sorry AFG, I didn't see your post before I entered that. That is much better but the back of the gun still looks too big.

uh i quite didnt understand ur instructions. you want me to move it up or back? and keep in mind i deleted my dod so someone's going to have to test it for me to see if it clips...

Move it back... I'll test it.

here u go
whats ur email addy?

Darken the handle a little if you have time...

Walker44@charter.net

Can u send it ot me plz.

Ill re-origin it and stuff.

moore19986@optusnet.com.au

Looks good in game... I got rid of the email and I meant to send you back a screenshot and one more simple request on the model... whats your email address.

doughboy334@hotmail.com

its Mixel's MP44 converted by Devin I think... i kinda updated the origins to make the ugly effects of FOV disappear

No prob.

Somethings wrong with my email and I couldnt send anything...

The StG44 you wanted me to test looks odd. Im not a fan of the shouldered look.

The .30 cal is great but could you darken the handle a little more until its almost a black shade and make the bullet casings more gold colored... I want them to match the high poly shells I am using... Here is the color the casings should be...
