JdB 151 Posted February 16, 2006 Ok, it's not an M4A1....47% leaves It's not an AK of any sort either....another 47% leaves. For those 6% of you remaining: I am doing another ''it hasn't been done to death'' weapon. Quite common during both the 1st and 2nd world wars, it's the Lee Enfield No1 SMLE MkIII. The model is finished (the lods aren't). I have now moved on to mapping the model (of which I of course will post an ultra boring render later on), and then the texturing (hopefully more exciting). It's not for a mod or anything, just for.....well, what all the other unfinished models were for, giving the community something rather than the ''has been done to death, but still we crave for more'' stuff.

astano 0 Posted February 17, 2006 Nice! When I saw "SMLE" I was hoping it'd be an Enfield. Looks very nice, can't wait to get my hands on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miss_cleo 0 Posted February 17, 2006 This is something I can get behind!! I own a No. I Mk.III, so let me know if you need pics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
@cero 0 Posted February 17, 2006 This will be interesting to see it in the hands of an Afghan gerrilla. Also a scoped version without the thrills would be welcomed. Looking good mate. @CERO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

malick 0 Posted February 17, 2006 Very nice indeed ! I've always loved the look of the Enfield. Very different from the French Lebel or German Kar. Keep up the good work ! Malick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfbite 8 Posted February 17, 2006 So where's the grenade launcher/Lasersight/foregrip only joking looks great man. Is it gonna have a bayonetting scripts? or are ya jus gonna leave that out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JdB 151 Posted February 17, 2006 Is it gonna have a bayonetting scripts? or are ya jus gonna leave that out? Well....it looks nice I think House Divided has a bayonet script floating around, maybe I will use that, but I fear it is going to need a new anim. And pics are of course welcomed, especially of the scoped version (which I didn't really intend to make, similar to the bayonet...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sander 14 Posted February 17, 2006 Hi, Lowlands Warrior may option that, as a start for the era of the Politionele Acties. No need to kid around about the SMLE grenade launcher: SMLE with grenadelaunching attachment Regards, Sander Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Connors 0 Posted February 17, 2006 Looks very nice, could be useful, (i wont say for what) there are pleanty of pics at this link (my friend own one, lucky devil) Pics of SMLE mkIII Just in case you need em that is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cpt. FrostBite 0 Posted February 17, 2006 Hi,Lowlands Warrior may option that, as a start for the era of the Politionele Acties. No need to kid around about the SMLE grenade launcher: SMLE with grenadelaunching attachment Regards, Sander We used american weapons since the Mariniers Brigade (Marines Brigade) was trained in the US and equiped like the USMC. So the Garand and M1 Carbine were used, but not the SMLE. Perhaps the enemy used those, but they used a lot of different weapons mainly japanese. Addon look good btw! Keep it up. It's better than an other M4 or AK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JdB 151 Posted February 17, 2006 I've been able to find a picture of a NoI SMLE MkIII with sniperscope, so with some luck and alot of begging I might just do it later on. That grenadelauncher is nice, except for the fact that even with the joints welded it still had a tendancy to explode in the user's face Edit: about half way through the mapping, provided everything goes to plan.

JdB 151 Posted February 17, 2006 The mapping is done....yes I know, I can hardly contain my excitement when looking at those renders... Colors are still the same (well roughly, as I needed to choose a darker color to get it to appear right ingame): Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Imshi-Yallah 0 Posted February 18, 2006 Excellent work Lt Hunter, on a true classic no less. How about some modern customised versions to accompany the pack, N0.5s with Fibreglass furnishing and picatinny rails No4 DMRs etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JdB 151 Posted February 18, 2006 Excellent work Lt Hunter, on a true classic no less.How about some modern customised versions to accompany the pack, N0.5s with Fibreglass furnishing and picatinny rails No4 DMRs etc. No, no and once again, no. I've already added both a bayonet and a sniperscope (well, still need to do the last) because people asked, but I'm not going to add entirely different versions. Like you said, ''a true classic'', no modern bs I've seen it before, some addonmaker shows a screen of a small weapons pack, and the people keep asking for ''just one more weapon/version please'', and the maker keeps piling on extra work. Then people start whining about ''when is it going to be released?''. The maker gives a date, doesn't meet the ''deadline'' and gets yelled at and flamed for something he does for free in his own time. If anyone is looking for such an addonmaker, then hit the "Back" button in your browser and see if the next thread brings you more fortune Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harley 3 1185 0 Posted February 20, 2006 If I were you I wouldn't bother with the sniper variant - all the pieces of wood and the fact that the scope had to be mounted on the side meant it wasn't the best sniper rifle around at the start of the Great War - the P14 (No 3 Enfield) Sniper or a Springfield 03 Sniper or even hunting rifles (before the sniping units were organised) were far more desirable. Then in World War Two along came the No 4 (T) Enfield sniper which quite frankly kicked ass for decades. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JdB 151 Posted February 20, 2006 Since the thread has been bumped anyway, I might as well do an update. I started texturing 2 days ago, just about finished the bayonet, did a fair amount on the rifle itself. Didn't do any work on it yesterday. I'd post a screen or two, but they're on my other pc.
