    is compmod still using the HMG? why not use this there?

    The current HMG in CompMod does not look like 'heavy' actually, which is the case here if you take a look on these pictures.
    That'd be cool though.

    Yeah, not to say the NS1 LMG remake isn't nice (it's awesome actually), but it's not a HMG. This however would be pretty sweet as the compmod HMG. :)

    Right now in SiegeMod I have the NS1 lmg model for both the hmg and lmg. With the hmg version a longer reload animation(and ns1 hmg sound, along with other variants of dmg and clip). I've been meaning to make it into the NS1 HMG model just like ns2c, but if I can use this model instead.. that would be great. The players would love it.

    The HMG still has to be wired up right. It's being used in a very specific way in Combat, similar to the HMG in Crysis 2/3. As for use in CompMod, you'll get no grief from me! :)

    Any news if this will ever be released for compmod?
    With such a high quality model and animations I think it would even fit within vanilla NS2.

    It was going to be released with the next content patch for combat.

    Now that the patch has been cancelled, I doubt they feel like finishing and releasing this for ns2 :/.

    well if no legal agreement is signed I am sure it could be released for ns2 via a mod ? or even they might just be willing to let it be released for ns2
  • _Grendel__Grendel_ Join Date: 2015-05-07 Member: 204238Members
    I doubt the combat devs would be willing to complete the work on the model, let alone release it especially after the way the whole combat thing turned out, but I guess you could always ask them.

    I don't want to say too much, but I think it's safe to assume that if the combat guys hold the rights to it, it won't be released to ns2.

    That would be great
    I think having an alternative to shotgun would make each rounds feel much more different for marines.

    Mmh in this case, could the original model made by @Vlaad be given to someone else not related to Combat, on UWE forum with the skills to finish it ?
  • _Grendel__Grendel_ Join Date: 2015-05-07 Member: 204238Members
    That depends on whether or not flg acquired the rights to the art. Even if you could legally get the model, who could finish it? All the art modders who could reliably make and get high quality 3d art into spark seems to have all vanished.

    Just ask the Combat guys for the finished model. It costs nothing to ask.
  • RevanCoranaRevanCorana Join Date: 2015-08-14 Member: 207125Members
    Ok, I asked him on steam and he said that the model was not fully finished and has since been re-purposed to other uses outside of the ns2 IP to try and recoop costs from Combat.
    Well too bad, I guess it makes sense from a business point of view.

    hmmm... guess someone has to redo the whole thing...

    He's given us the files. Just need to find time to implement it in the game.

    Would that mean you'll take back the HMG appellation?

    I hope the current placeholder model remains as an unlock for the lmg/rifle.

    That's awesome this model looked really cool, if I may suggest though I still think you'd be better off with the HMG being an alternative to the shotgun, to increase tech path variability. (instead of being a linear route to jetpack)

    @BeigeAlert Any update here? Since he gave you the files.......

    This model is really absolutely awesome.

    Can we get this in the game ASAP and with a DLC skin right off the bat, with a generous percentage of sales to @Vlaad. It's only right!

    We have the files, but there is still a lot of work needed to get it in the game. :(

    Can you give an eta?
  • RammlerRammler Join Date: 2013-06-18 Member: 185607Members, Reinforced - Supporter, Reinforced - Shadow
    yeah, you already have the files, so you dont have to make it first. just put it in the game.
    it looks wayyyyyyy better than the old hmg.

    seems like a touch of bubba was floating through your mind.
