Making better shooting

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, im pretty sick of the 1st person shooting mechanics of the game.

I ve never done any work with O2, and i was looking for knowledge about how i would go about doing them.

Im using americas Army 3 for reference, its not the best game, but these effects are really nice.

1) The big thing i want to do is implement camera shake when you shoot a gun, it shouldnt be to hard, but i have no idea how to do it.

2) The second would be if i was able to get the camera shake, it would be good to continue and add in 3d scopes, any ieas on this too would be appreciated.

EDIT: Never mind this is under event handlers, please delete

The so called camera shake in the vid is nothing else but recoil. It has been discussed a lot: the animation in A2 is linked horizonatlly, hence from a 1stPOV perspective you don't have the sensation of recoil, the muzzle only moving on the vertical axis.

2) The second would be if i was able to get the camera shake, it would be good to continue and add in 3d scopes, any ieas on this too would be appreciated.

3d sights is possible, but the real issue is that the whole screen would be zoomed in, rather than only the scope part. This has been talked over so many times before.

Adding 3d scopes would need a new 3d model of the weapon you want to use it on as well, or at least the MLODs from BIS weapons to modify it.
