I know hack jobs are a touchy subject around here and this thread will probably get touchy as well.

I'll take it down if requested...

But in the mean time, here's the Call of Duty BAR hacked together with the default Dod bipod. I slightly changed the texture, modified contrast to make it look a little better. Moved and stuffed around with the vertices to get the POV right. It looks good enough imo. P_models and w_model as well.

Maybe you should try the CoD Thompson.

Model looks nice imo but the textures are wayyyyyyyyyyyy too bright.

I think that when you convert COD/MOH models you need to split the textures because HL supports only 256 Colors and those games support much more and because of that they can have wood and metal in the same texture but when you convert it to 256 colors the hues are totaly diffrent and instead of getting 256 of wood you get like half half cause of the blue colors of the metals and so...

TBH I don't think that's worth the effort. You can hardly notice the difference if you have brown and grey shades in the original and you convert it to 256-color. You'll get wasted memory and worse quality if you resize parts.

You won't die trying ? :-)

128 colors is not that much, a good eye can see the lack of colors.
im not 100% sure about it but it's just a theory.

Your brightness settings on your monitor or video card are set too high. Same goes to most people on their computers.

acctualy my screen is very dark.
the metal is cool but it's not realistic, not that i blame kiff or something, it's CoD's makers fault... it's not a damn harly, it's a weapon... i wouldn't want to run around with that huge eye magnet, trying to get a good cover with it or hide... would not be easy at all.

I like what I see but I also agree that the tex needs a bit of a tone down. Gj, submit to DODEC

whats wrong with the rear site?


i think it looks fine. i'd probably use it too if it weren't for the default sleeves. i can't stand the tanker jacket sleeves that the americans have in DoD retail.

one thing that hit me, this bar is small and leaner than most bar model out there. It seem kind of small when I'm using itl. How big are those bar suppose to look anyway?
