When i replace the XM177E2_proxy.p3d i get a white weapon. There were no separate textures in the file i downloaded. Did I screw up?

Gotta ask - is the XM177E2 replacement an M4 model? Just need to clear that up...

Judging from TxtPathSwap, you need the inq_weaponpack.pbo and the inq_const.pbo for those missing textures.

the model uses the INQ weapon pack.... JPEG TEXTURES  

double-u tee eff  

now to find out which textures are paa and pac and remap thos and see what happens

edit: and what is "INQ_CONST"

[sv5000 127]

Sorry I think i included an old beta p3d.. hang on

yep I did.. sorry about that .update on the way

*****See first post for fixed model testure path of the XM-177E2(I hope   )

What do you mean M4 model?, as in is it based on an existing M4 ingame model or the history of the weapon?

[Thunderbird 0]

the XMS is perfect , that doesn't need any update

[sv5000 127]

Whats wrong with Jpg textures?

[Thunderbird 0]

The quality of .paa or .pac are better than Jpg , I think

[sanctuary 19]

not at all

It is just that jpg are uncompressed by OFP unlike .paa and .pac

That means it ends with a really huge texture (think about .bmp) in the videocard memory.

[sv5000 127]

oh.. fair enough

[Pappy Boyington 0]

sv.. if u want i already converted all the jpegs into paa, and remaped the xm177_proxy textures to the one in the INQ weapon pack.

i was just on my way to test it out if it works, i can just host the updated file for you

[sv5000 127]

Hey pappy.

I did not intend the addon to be dependant on having inqs weapon pack (Was learning O2 and how to remap textures ). I have already placed an updated zip file in the first post that remaps the texture path in XM-177E2_proxy to that in the XMS.pbo

If you want to redo that one then thats fine by me, but my original intention was for it not to be addon dependant outside of just the xms.pbo .

I've replaced the XMS by yours ...

added u to the credits too

hope u've similar projects for other replacements

[sv5000 127]

Thanks Thunderbird

I just wanted to give back something to the community that has given me heaps of continued enjoyment from this game.

[Smokki 0]

Nice work .

By the way, can I play multiplayer games with this addon?

[Thunderbird 0]

the XMS ? sure ..

PAA Version:

(no change.. just felt like posting my own screenshot )

Download PAA Version Here

changed the texture paths on the "XM-177E2_proxy" to teh xms.pbo. all textures in paa format (im pretty sure you figured that much out already )

and this will not clash with the jpeg version if another person, dispite all the facts, use the jpeg version and you both are on the same server

File Hosted from @war

Note: for custom config modders and users to use this in your config mod do the following:

1: depbo the xms.pbo and add the XM-177E2_proxy.p3d to your XMS folder

2: pbo the XMS folder, then place the updated xms.pbo in your addons folder

3: open up your config.cpp (for which ever mod you use)

4: replace the "model=" path under "Class M4" with: model="\XMS\XM-177E2_proxy";

Note: the above applys only to Y2K3, FFUR, EECP, and any other "unit replacment" mods (users and creators) that ofer a customizable (editable) config.

Well, well, at least people wont complain of yet another M4 , nice work sv5000, InQ., Pappy (going with the paa.), and CS modders. Thanks!

the XM-177E2 original addon is still not being replaced after you put the updated file here.  When I try it in my game, it only replaces the XM-177S version.  So is it just me or should it be working?

btw great addon. I was looking for an XMS replacement. Just what I needed!
