around 2100 poly or so, originally converted from a 1024x1024 texture for another mod that I was working on that fell through. Anyway like the title designates it was a French arm that served in WWI and into WW2 even with more advanced rifles in the french ranks such as the MAS-36 and the Ribeyrolles Sutter and Chauchat Model 1917 semi-automatic rifle. Here are some pics so far. It IS in game, but the animations do need some tweaking to be accurate, the hand clips a little through the bolt, and the reload sequence is all wrong right now.

I must say, that is a nice looking rifle.

Always liked that rifle. Gj!

So did you have to shrink the texture down from 1024 x 1024 to 512 x 512?

yeah :/

Hey all,

That gun looks so sweet!

If its French is would be cool to have a French pack to replace British maybe and it would fit great.

Maybe Ska Warz will redo his for 1.0.

few questions
1.can i use it for my pack?
2.can u make a nonscoped
3.me thinks that the wood goes a bit too long and you cant see the barrel

a french pack please!!

Just bind your left mouse button to drop gun, and you're all set.

And I put the FF Aimbot back on when I want to play as a yank?

Alright guys, thats enough country bashing.

Great!!! i definatly gonna use this... :D

Ooouuu! That -is- pretty! I'm sure it could be remeshed to use the full 1024x1024 texture, if you break it down in to four 512x512'ers. I do hope you still have the original texture. :x

Looks a bit off in-game, though...

Remember, guys. DoD's about gameplay, not politics. Keep your half-baked political opinions to yourselves.

My opinion isn't political, hehe. Its biased.

Broken links?

aye not nice but it did make me crack a smile.

i would use this to replace my springfield. we canadians actually used both this and the enfield.

Ahem, as I said, broken links. I'd love to see this masterpeice, maybe even use it!

links work fine for me...

i say add some FOV adjustment and its good to go

a nice change from the everyday.

could someone please attach the pics? the link doesn't work for me.

could you possibly finish your chatellerault as well? :D
that would be wicked-cool lol

Somebody really needs to make a Chauchat lol ;)

Yeah I cant seem to get the links to work either. Can someone attach a pic cos this gun sounds class!

Ska

lol it looks like a shotgun with a scope!

hehe i might use it though keep it up

OK....well ..... its french....i have nothing else to say but this, if you could use your talents to make "MAJOR POWER"weapons, (i.e. America, Germany) it would be better. But since the ....french.... dropped out so soon why would you bother.

Sorry if im Being a little harsh on the.....french....thing, but im a little mad right now :mad:

I'd still like a screenshot link that works, lol.

Why ask for Italian weapons? Why have a map with the name of Caen? Why have Brits at all?

Gee, golly, Amurica ain't got nuttin' tuh do wit dose tings, do it? Daz right, it don't, and we all know Worl' War Too ain't got nuttin' tuh do wit' duh world, eether, by Gawd. Iss all 'bout Amurica, by Gawd. Gawd bless Amurica, by Gawd, 'cause Amurica's the biggest, baddest, meanest motha in dis 'ere sandbox, by Gawd.

Right? Yeah.

Gee, golly, Batman, I think somebody's got their powdered white wig on a li'l too tight, there.

That's it, I can't hold it in anymore.

:mad: *WARNING THE FOLLOWING IS A FURIOUS RANT*:mad:

Maybe ppl are sick of seeing remake after remake of the same damn american or german weapons? I mean for God's sakes they weren't the only ones to fight and die in WW2. There are plenty of replacements being made by ppl like Trigger, Russ. Conscript, and the other excellent contributors in MSA for American/German weapons. There you go. Merry Christmas.

The French dropped out soon... yeah, right. What do you call La Resistance? A group of french citizens pretending to fight the Germans? Who here knows that the French army actually captured German territory in the Saar in September 1939? Anyone?



ok I'm done, mods can delete, modify, whatever

Could someone please attach some working pictures for me and the others who requested it several times! lol

it aint hard, jus copy the pic and attach it. it'll take you like two minutes! Do it now dammit! lol

BTW Gomer Pile, your a moron. 'sorry if i'm being a little harsh' go read a fecking history book.

Ska

Thanks, John Doe and Ska.

It's as if the word, "WORLD" [as in WORLD war two, right? right? right!] got lost in there somewhere.

I wonder why.

How many of you French-haters have blond hair and blue eyes, and are pure-bred home-town boys, I wonder?

I have nothing but respect for what the French did in WW2. They fought bloody hard and they suffered badly under the nazi rule.

It's all to easy to slag off a country saying they put up no fight, but have you ever actually tried reading up on what actually happened? I bet half of you french haters can't even name three battles fought between the French and the Axis.

And saying they put up no fight is complete bull****, look at the French Air Force, Free French Commandos and the Resistance. They had no country to call their own but did they give up? Did they hell, they took up arms by whatever means neccesary (whether it being lent to them by the Common wealth or by stealing them from Germans) and they fought on bloody hard. The French earned the victory in the end.

Ska

K here's the pics :) :

and so forth...

aaaannnnd so forth.

Cheer Doe, I was gonna foam at the mouth if another person said "Great Work" and I still hadn't seen it lol

That looks bloody great, it kinda looks like a winchester (the metal parts near the trigger). I'd definately use this when its release, great job!

@ John Doe, whatever happened to your Brit trenchcoats from 3.1? The hackjon of Devs and DWMK, did you ever release them?

Ska

How about everyone shuts up about the whole matter and talk about the model?

Personally, I think it looks great, I'm glad to see a new kind of weapon, there's entirely too few of em released.

Very pretty model.

To respond to everyone......

#1) Easy does it, the point some people are trying to make is that DoD is a game involving the three biggest western powers in the war, so they'd rather see models after other US, Brit, and German guns that are not used in the game. (IE that scoped K43)

#2) For those of you with that attitude, there are only so many models you can make after US, Brit and German weapons, a little variaty is good! Thats why we're doing the Russian pack (shamless plug)

#3) Its just a game. Go run around the block a few time, folks. Your all are a bit too angry.

Sorry to bump this, but this was really ****ing cool.

You release, I'll reskin :)

well, this was never intended for actuall release, more of just apimping thread

but the mod dided so if you bug ArgonnePatrol on AIM enough he might release it for dod

sry Term, hope they dont spam ur AIM too much :p

What mod and what other stuff do you have? I dont care if its complete or not. As the saying goes: One man's garbage is another mans treasure. Half completed models, animations, players, peices or models, whatever.

I'll go pester the guy to release it for DoD. ;)

Thought you guys would wanna see this...

LOVe this gun, but the skin just isnt DoD fitting style, it looks like it would fit in more with MoH stuff....im not sure how it could be redone, but would make it even more badass :) and kewl un-scoping job there cheet :)


Btw, french resistance rocked the nazi's world

I don't know if it's applicable, but I'm thinking it could do with a little more detail. It seems terribly flat and bland. Of course, I don't know if that's how it was in real life.
