If you still wanted to add realisim to how teh heck your sights would work with the bolt in the way, you could model a circle notch cut into the top of your bolt, much like the open-bolts on MAC-10/11s. Works quite well on those, although I really don't like the rearsights on those things... But seeing as how the model is pretty much done, doubt you'd want to go back and model it in. You COULD use trans (what am I, a freaking transparency skin advertiser? I bring it up in every thread I talk in almost... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ) but it'd look ugly up on top of the bolt.
Other than that, awesome job. Never did really like all of the T.S.A. green, but your models were always top-notch. Specially your GL. Only batch out of your stuff I use, and one of teh best I say. Smooooth shells... Btw, your read-mes indeed were unique. Only read-me's I've been FORCED to read. I do read them all though, eventually. Just not immediately... <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Dunno if I'd use this one yet, I'm still clinging to my pulse rifle till Chrono can make my own version of it. I may give it a shot though.

*even though what is done with the model is completly up to the discretion of wolf*
1. make slightly angled so a good part of the barrel can be seen in the V_mdl.
2. Switch the flashlight with something similar to an m203, therefor you could have the same model for the grenade launcher.
3. make flashlight smaller
4. make clip smaller
5. make some of the scratches un noticeable.
6. scrap the flashlight entirely
or
7. Other "state what you think for 7"
In my honest opinon I think the model is freakin tight. the only thing I would vote for is
1
but I think it would be better if he just left the flashlight on there cause I think it is cool, but made the same model but with a GL on the bottom of the gun.
which just led me into an idea
Some of you have played the game Delta force right? or seen vietnam movies with shotguns on the bottoms of m -16's or car-15's. Well I think it would be very cool and unique if Brigader took this model he is working on and left it the way it is for the Lmg model, but for the shotgun model he could have that same lmg with half a shotgun underneath replacing the flashlight, and for the GL the same LMG with something similar to an m203 but with 4 rounds replacing the flashlight, and for the HMG the model would be basically souped up with whatever the creator deems should be on it.
I agree with you <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Woah, I love it! Brig I hope you release it to the public... but if not oh well I guess people like me will have to use your other one. Good job anyhow! *cookie for Brig*
hm I REALLY like the barrel. But the tac light... mhm I don't like it that much... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Lol i highly doubt taht brig would replace it with the m203, think about it? the grenande launcher needs to be able to hold 4 rounds, and m203 holds one at a time, i dont know how that would possibly work, however the tac light is kinda cheesy, but beauitiful work brig, better than any of us could do.

that wouldnt work, where would all 4 "HAND grenades" fit, trust me , if anything just drop the tac light, i mean that freaky 4 grenade m203 would look bad, you all have to think about animation...
Well, I make a version of it without a Flashlight, But I dont think I like the idea of a non-funtioning grenade launcher or Scope or whatever. Ive never liked those types of models. Think about it. you Have a Shotgun, Now you pull out your Hand grenade, But instead you pull out a Machinegun with only one grenade, which cant fire otherwise. Just makes no sense.
About the skin, The Scratches and such arent all THAT noticable in game. That screenshot I posted had to be editted in Photoshop though because It was too dark to see much of anything... I play with the Gamma set very low. Im still not quite sure how Im going to go about releasing it, But at this point I doubt it will be a private release.
Yeah I see what you are saying about the non functioning accessories, but what i think you could do is make them like mods to the gun.
for instance:
when the com drops you a shotgun then you would have a shutgun underneath the gun (like the masterkey in DELTA FORCE) or when the commander drops you a GL you could have some type of GL underneath the assault rifle and for the reload animations you could have the marine putting 4 rounds into a clip, then putting the clip into the launcher.
but i dont know what you could do for the hmg. i would probably still use your previously modeled HMG unless you came up with something better. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
and hopefully everyone here can agree to boycott people who make mods of your models and realease them, so that you can release publicly

it looks ok in the v_model because of HLs freaky FOV
And maybe you could make the base smoother, it's skinned as a cylinder but it's modeled very boxy like a square
WOW, very nice brig
