The m4 family...

[FlipeR 0]

This will be my first released work in post-Oxygen time - the M4 family! For now the basic M4 and the M4 w/ M203 are reedy for BETA test! Not all LODs are done yet, so dont complain about that! Please help me and try them out...

M4:

M4 w/M203:

There are new BETA test versions at the bottom of this thread!

And a screenshot (M4 w/M203):

<span style='font-family:verdana'><span style='font-size:9pt;line-height:100%'>I would beta-test it FlipeR, but I cannot access the files yet. I always get an "404 Not Found" error. Maybe the files are not accessible for public (without username/password).

Till later, PSC</span></span>

M203 GL is shooting in semi-auto mode

no need to reload

[FlipeR 0]

I know that antichrist - I bet its a CPP related problem so I hope I'll be able to fix it...

I kinda liked that I didn't have to reload it

[Antichrist 0]

Well I agree its kinda cool, but u'll waste all the grenades before you can say "WTF??"

[FlipeR 0]

WT..Click? Uuups!

[Adammo 0]

maybe I'm just clueless but I dont see what was changed on the M4.

The M4+m203 is obvious... but not the M4

another question to Fliper

Are you going to make SOPMOD and c-mag versions?

[Lansen 0]

Very nice Fliper, I was thinking of adding a SOPMOD version with the 4x ACOG sight, it would be nice to have the rail system too with the front grip but I´m not sure if we can add a way for the soldiers to hold the weapon.

Anyway.. Good work

[FlipeR 0]

Adammo: the LODs 1 and 6 has some details added! And in original OFP there was no M4, only the XM177E2! So its all new

Antichrist: you mean this: http://www.specialoperations.com/Weapons/M4.html?And whats a c-mag?

Lansen: the ACOG scope version is in work right now, about the front grip I dont know! I dont think we could make the soldier hold the M4A1 for its front grip...

[Lansen 0]

Hey fliper. A C-mag is a hundred rounds magazine, it got two round drum magazines that come together in the middle.

It must be possible to add a way that the soldiers hold the weapons, I guess I have to make one for every soldier model but anyway... I´ll post some news when I figure something out

[Antichrist 0]

Yes, that one! And probably something like that too

C-mag

[VipHeart 0]

Damn, I wanted this to be a suprise for Flip, but I made this scope for him already.. i wanted to tell him today

It's a kind of gift for some favours he did for me...

[FlipeR 0]

OK now I know whats a c-mag

Can somebody post a pic of the double-magazine so I can see how to model it? TNX!

Viper: TNX for the scope! You realy surprised me

The next step - M4A1 with M68 reflex scope:

FlipeR

[VipHeart 0]

Flip, first of all: show them a pic of the scope i send ya

Second: Make M68 in the same color as the M4!

[PSC 0]

Hey Fliper nice guns you made. They look really great. But I would like them even more if you would add some signs of useage. Like dust, a little dirt, some scratches, you know what I'm talking about...

At the moment they look like you just took them out of the cellophane foil they were shipped in (and not like you just robbed 10 km through mud, thorny undergrowth and rocky cliffs). I think they would fit better to OFP if they don't look completely new (maybe I'm alone with that opinion). Anyways, good job!

Till later, PSC

[Antichrist 0]

Hey, Fliper, check this site for more info about c-mag

even some structural drawings

Fliper, thats not a reflex sight you have made on the M4A1 with M68 reflex scope! Thats a red-dot sight, probably aimpoint. That one shows a little red laser dot in the sight, its not like a lasersight.

A reflex sight is something very different. I´m sorry I dont have a link to any pictures right now with reflex sights but I´ll post some when I find them.

[Lansen 0]

If you look at the reflex sight on this image you see how it looks like. Its not a scope. Its used to be able to aim quickly at short ranges, like when a SWAT enters a house many of them use reflex sights because they are very good to aim with at short distances fast. I believe you dont actually aim with neither the aimpoint or the reflex sights, you "point" your weapon in the right direction ... You look at the target instead of the dot in the sight.In normal sights you look at the cross in a scope and so on.

It sounds like you never fired a weapon in real life.. the point by useing the reflex is not (as for SWAT) to shoot to kill but to netrulice the suspect (shoot at arms and legs) if you only point the gun in a general direction you risk hitting a crusiual part of your "target" as for militery use allmoste the same deal Red dot and reflex scope makes it easyer and faster to "get a beat on the target" than whit ironsights.

Hope this says it all...
