please port this to the scar im flippin mad rn ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

This would definitely be a suitable rifle for Bill.

Alex, I'm big fan of the XM177E1 and I really wish that you can use COD MW 2022 Animation for it and make the gun appear a little larger...that would be absolutely perfection.

I see. Thank you so much, Alex.

The AR variants reportedly have a cyclic rate of 700-900 RPM, probably depending on ammunition.

For this variant, I wonder what is the RPM for XM177E1?

Vietnam

Let me just say that I despise the M16 in game. This mod actually makes me want to and love using it.

Great stuff, Alex.

Hoping to see the L1A1 for either of the sniper rifles

Better run through the jungle--

nice

So-called "mesh-stacking" is not healthy for fps games, especially l4d2, trust me i tried and it just destroys the game with CTDs if you have enough mods installed.

As for the specular - either set opacity for specular layer to ~30-50% OR darken the material using $color2 (either the whole material or using a diff alpha with $blendtintbybasealpha combined with a sort-of metallic mask)

Yes, I kind of did so for the .44 Magnum, because the diffuse is almost black while the specular is what makes it white and shiny. Basically I simply overlayed it, and it sorta works. I'll try doing what Jacob did for some of his mods, something that involves a duplicate mesh for extra material effects.

Well yeah you're right, spec/gloss ain't no pbr at all, i'm talking nonsense.
Still, there's really no way of using colored-specular textures in Source (hl2/l4d2/etc) other than mixing those with albedo/diffuse.

The game has four textures for weapon models: diffuse, normal, specular, and whatever the wear mask is. It is not PBR, but I might know a way to make it look better. I'll update it if I'm satisfied with the results.

Looks boring without specular baked-into diffuse and the overall exponent looks really basic.
Specular/Gloss-type pbr requires you to bake specular into diffuse and use $phongalbedotint "1" to actually see all the colored details.

Damn I love retro AR's, despite my dislike of the animations I might have to actually use this. Would love to see more RS2 ports!

Absolutely it is. Maybe also look into the Ithaca Stakeout variant, I love the way that one looks

I could. I definitely would. I find the game's M40 with its brass-colored scope extremely sexy.

It's beautiful... please tell me you could do more RS2 models in the future

I LOVE THIS!

You a not lazy.... Just too much time you needs for animating something by yourself... Kinda my situation, yep

Well, unless someone makes animations for them, I cannot do much. Maybe I'll stop being a lazy bum and animate something.

I forget the time there's also some good models from RS/RS2 that are ready to be ported over like the Owen, F1, L1A1, and especially some of the more obscure Japanese guns lmao

its perfect

Ohoho, nice anims choice )

Thanks
