Ok my last question about modeling a gun.

[Barry the baldy 0]

OK ive modeled my rifle, skinned it added the lod's ALL is done, but when i use it in-game its about 10 times the size of the unit, ive managed to get information enough to guess my problem is in the scaling, my question is when i go to 3d - scale or whatever it is what are ideal parameters to enter into the scaling box to have it the right size?

That may have sounded a bit wierd and confusing so ill ask it in a simple way, how do i get my gun the correct size in-game?

One last little problem... Also when my unit is holding the gun he has the butt outside his elbow instead of tucked into his shoulder, will this right itself when the size is right or is it another issue?

in o2 one square is one meter, find the length of your rifle (should be on a website somewhere), scale the rifle so it is exactly one meter in length, then scale up or down by how many it needs to be the right length, (so if the rifle is 1.2m long, scale by 1.2), getting it in the right place it trial and error, either that or grab the old bis demo models (they are floating around somewhere) and import one of their rifles, then match the pistol grip on your rifle to the one on bis', and it should be in the right place

Perfect!

Got it all scaled i had to shorten the butt because it was poking into his arm but with your help i got it perfect in about 4 tries, thanks a million. Time to start a new gun now
