schweetums. Let's get cracking then.

To answer all this stuff =) There are rotating animations for weapons, yes. But that's only applicable for minigun type weapons and MM-1 type weapons. The new .30 cal on the Cobra in OFP:R does rotate. This is a feature added in OFP:R, and I have yet to play with the M-163 from OFP:R, so I don't know if that rotates or not. Anyway, other than rotating animations like that, we can't make our own animations for the game. (That's actually how the openable doors work, with rotating animations)

I nominate FlipeR for grand-master for the advanced bits, since he has most of that stuff written down already.

Exactly, that's what I'm talking about. So, Denoir, do you have a plan for this FAQ? Like is there some place where we can deposit those useful little tips, or do we just write them down in a .txt and send it to you?

Okay, hope it turns out for the best then =)

Still, it would be better if we had a large comprehensive FAQ in which all our knowledge can be found. Imagine someone reading a tutorial, not understanding something and coming on to the forums to post about it. Now imagine the same guy reading a tutorial, not understanding something then goes into the FAQ and finds the info he needs. Let's face it guys. By now, the things that are not answered in this board are not worth answering. Or we simply do not know the answers yet. If all the info here is then placed in the FAQ, the newbies can easily learn everything we know to date. Not saying that we should have tutorials, but a FAQ to complement the tutorials would be extremely useful.

We can't make new animations for OFP, sorry.

The weapon models are indeed not animated. What could be done though is have the bipod out all the time. Though it would not offer extra support.

Aye, this would benefit us all. Couldn't it be in the form of an html doc? That is put up, with several sections about lots of O2 stuff. And we could all work to get all the info from this board into that FAQ. So we can have: Basic Info ->Installing & Configuring ->Button explanations ->Useful keyboard shortcuts ->Basic modelling ->Basic Texturing Advanced Info ->Selections ->Memory points ->LODs ->Proxies Or something like that. Sounds like a plan, eh?

What, would you say, is generally the best size for the textures?

Edit After having been told off in two different languages I will stop posting here. I just want to point out that I have simply been defending/explaining my opinion. In short: O2 board for all when O2 goes public. Then the same for each tool when that tool goes public as well. And now, I will stop.
