Pathy 0 Posted August 20, 2004 I've been working on this one for the last couple of weeks to get it out the door, and here it is. Nightstalker shotgun pack. It contains 3 types of shotgun each with 2 versions. Thats the Mossberg 590, the Mossberg 590 shorty with a pistol grip, the Remington 870, a shorty pistol grip 870, a SPAS 12 with folded stock and SPAS 12 with extended stock. A few pictures: 590 Shorty http://www.flashpointfx-studios.com/forum/files/590short.jpg 590 http://www.flashpointfx-studios.com/forum/files/590.jpg Spas 12 http://www.flashpointfx-studios.com/forum/files/spas1.jpg http://www.flashpointfx-studios.com/forum/files/spas2.jpg Having fun :P http://www.flashpointfx-studios.com/forum/files/dx1.jpg The pack is made to be as realistic as possible, so all of the shotguns have relatively short range and relatively low accuracy, but make up for it by launching a deadly spread of pellets at low ranges. In short, its ideal for close urban or woodland/jungle combat. (also ideal against the zombie packs There shouldnt be any major bugs, with the exception of the magazine reload time.....that is tied into the reload anim and you cant change it without a new anim, so......its as close to perfect as we could make it Unfortunately Nightstalkers website and forum are STILL down, we have a temporary forum at http://www.galwar.co.uk/Nightstalker/forum/ or you can just make your comments here Anyway, download it at: http://www.galwar.co.uk/Nightst....st&id=3 If you can mirror it then please do. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sgt_Eversmann 1 Posted August 20, 2004 Yeah really nice... but one Question: What do I have to change in the config that a Shotgun only shots one shot, I mean one projectile and not 6 or 7 like a normal rifle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sturmovik 0 Posted August 20, 2004 hey great job and to answer your question you could use lsc shotgun script Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sanctuary 19 Posted August 20, 2004 This pack is very well done, i like it . I quickly tested it , giving myself a folded spas, and rushed directly into a russian squad. Of course, they killed me before my unaccurate running shots touched any of them, but it was fun ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stlkd 0 Posted August 20, 2004 finally a 590 with a stock its about damn time im getting tired of pistol gripped shotguns Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pathy 0 Posted August 20, 2004 Thank you all for such nice comments, its so nice after weeks (well some parts of the pack are months old, but ive only just compiled it all) of hard work, from all involved as well, not just me (Registered Fugitiv and Federalist are two guys worth naming for thier wonderfull models, though Korvass (remington textures) has long since left the community), to get this kind of feedback.....Brings a wam fuzzy feeling inside ....and makes me want to get the other weapons i have on my HD out the door With regards to the script....ermm i actually perfer it how its done at the moment, rather than dodgy scripts that dont always work.... the only real negative side effect is the extended muzzle flash, and thats liveable with in my opinion. And sanctuary....thats what i love so much about these shotguns! They are so much fun to use (ESPECIALLY against zombies ) Thank you all, go and enjoy them! A very pleased Pathy.

stlkd 0 Posted August 20, 2004 Pathy i got to thinking and there are no Benelli M1 in the ofp community. I think that should be one of your next weapons. I will gladley help with what I can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeMeSiS 11 Posted August 20, 2004 mhm, the zombie part convinced me, i LOVE zombies.... (eeeer, not like that ) downlaoding Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FerretFangs 0 Posted August 20, 2004 It would be great if they had slugs, and flechette ammo types as well. Slugs are used to smash doors, cars, and people. Flechette doubles the range of the shotgun, and has a wider pattern, but doing less damage. The US experimented with shotguns quite a bit during the 'Nam era as a battlefield weapon. It would also be cool to see a HK/Olin CAWS http://world.guns.ru/shotgun/sh18-e.htm and a Saiga 12K http://world.guns.ru/shotgun/sh07-e.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeMeSiS 11 Posted August 20, 2004 well, the spas12 is my new zombie killer  but that reminton870 is a bit.... well... when i fire at a zombies feet when hes 0.5m away from me, the last few bullets end up above his head....  AND: the AI didnt fire a shot at the zombies, didnt test at other units, but my guys got eaten while sleeping on the ground i was lucky that i could fight them of with my trusty spas12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pathy 0 Posted August 20, 2004 If there is demand for it, i will add a benelli model. Or any other shotgun. However, i considered this originally after i had the current 6 models made and textured and all ready to go.....should i add a benelli? Tempted, but i thought, at the end of the day its all much of a muchness.....another similar shotgun with a similar recoil with a similar damage value, similar sound (and the same shot one as per the rem and mossberg)....you get the picture, i didnt think there was much point in adding another shotgun when what was there seemed adequate. Ok now with that out the way, as i said, if there is demand, i will add it and release an updated pack. More ammo is also a very good idea and i see no reason why another couple of ammo classes cannot be added. Infact thinking about it, someone in my mod suggested adding Sabot rounds months ago back when i had just made the pistol grip 870...must have slipped my mind So there probably will be an update, maybe one or two weeks away, depending on what needs doing In the meantime i shall move onto the next pack, and give the current shotgun pack a week or so to be in use....that'll either be the Nightstalker Sniper Rifle pack (a small one, only 3 rifles) or the Pistol pack (larger, 8 pistols (i think) but almost done anyway ) BTW if you had the original M870 addon i released last Xmas it needs deleting if your using this pack some class names are the same......

Which Remington is it? The pistol grip version has quite a kick, the stock has less of one....if in doubt, try crouching...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
void_false 1 Posted August 20, 2004 lmao. send M60 to hell with 3 magazines. excelent shotguns indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
commando9903 0 Posted August 20, 2004 i made a quick mission on intro, me and a few west guys, with all the shotguns included in the pack, surrounded by zombies. hell they were shooting just as much as me, i didnt notice any problems. SPAS has earned its place under my pillow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pathy 0 Posted August 20, 2004 lmao. send M60 to hell with 3 magazines. Â Â excelent shotguns indeed. Just imagine you set fire to its engine block or ruptured the fuel tank..... I find it funny that everyones favourite seems to be the SPAS 12.....i hate it ;) .....i had to make textures for it twice (1st ones i made were crap) i screwed up the second textures half way through and had to battle to save them, and i still don't like the textures on there but i dont have the willpower to redo them AGAIN (not so soon after the last time anyway) My favourites probably the Mossberg 590 with Stock Although it only holds 6 shots.
