Jackal326 1181 Posted January 3, 2008 Nice model. I like the double feed of rounds into the mechanism  Thats the zasleh (I'm using the old-school OFP zasleh-cheat to imitate the feeding of the rounds). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dm 9 Posted January 3, 2008 You know you can animate that now? (a-la the vanialla ArmA weapons, just make sure you get the anim direction the right way round ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
da12thMonkey 1943 Posted January 3, 2008 Hey Jackal, nice to have some updates from you; the HKs are looking excellent. The HK53s look like they'll be fun. M249's also looking pretty smart, but something about the profile of the barrel looks a little off to me: In the picture you posted the barrel looks very straight, where it tapers in then back out again towards the muzzle brake in many of the images I've seen, and on BIS's ArmA model. http://img246.imageshack.us/my.php?image=m249sawnj8.jpg Might just be the angle you took the picture at though, so I apologise if I'm talking crap here. The model is otherwise brilliant from where I'm standing, (your M145 puts the one I attempted to make some months ago completely to shame ) and the textures look superb. As ever, I look forward to more updates mate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jackal326 1181 Posted January 4, 2008 You know you can animate that now?(a-la the vanialla ArmA weapons, just make sure you get the anim direction the right way round ) Yeah I know I'll probably end up animating it (though the rotation will look dodgy unless I re-align the rounds to be more circular in the way they hang). @da12thMonkey: The barrel is just a place holder, the picture doesn't show its only 5 faces and looks very square when viewed from the wrong angle so I'll be remaking it using the image you posted as a base, thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jackal326 1181 Posted January 23, 2008 The SMG pack has been placed on the back burner recently. I just seem to lack the motivation to put the work into to finish it, though it it only requires a little work. I simply keep finding other projects that keep distracting me; the Mercs being a fine example, not to mention early work on the assault rifle pack and intimitant work on the pistols and LMGs (which will be merged with the Assault Rifle pack due to them using the same calibers of ammunition, and the fact that I don't plan to include many LMGs in comparison to the numbers of SMGs etc. that I've included, so having their own pack seems pointless). As for progress on the Mercs, they're only really a side project, but I keep adding things and changing bits and pieces, so I doubt they'll ever be "finished" per se. That said, I'll releasing the first version with the SMG Pack, when its ready anyway. Infact, I just finished my own personal unit model. I'll post a few shots when I get around to testing it.

Jackal326 1181 Posted February 11, 2008 i understand its hard work, but ive been waiting a long time, almost a year to see something from Jackal. I remember reading a post by someone on these forums many moons ago, and though I cannot remember the exact phrasing, or who originally posted it, it was to the effect of: "A one man band plays a song slower than an orchestra". While musically, that quote has no weight what-so-ever, in the addon making sense, a truer word has never been spoken/typed. I'm working, for the most part, on my own on these addons. While most of my work is based on models/textures by other authors (with credit and permission), its still a hard task to undertake when you not only work ~40 hours a week, but also like to have some form of social life on top of that. I appreciate people's furstrations with the time-span involved, but at the end of the day I have to prioratise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
