yea i have just seen this modle in the bf2 editor, ill look about inclduign it in a little test map and give u some feedback on it  :wink:

as is in bf2 the rifle is not finished, the mesh is good, and the projectile as i recall was blank, it had the zoom of the 92fs, and no sounds for anything on it, you could fire it, reload it, zoom unzoom, no sound effects what so ever on it, i fixed that.



after i had it working nice and of quality that the game should have, i setup code files and ziped them for download so others could use a premade script to add the rifles to their maps and also the script fills in all missing data of the rifle.

ok i quickly tested this rifle our and here are my rusult bit i havent been able to test it in a MP situation yet so i dont know how powerfull it is ect. But these are afew commments about it.



was pretty simpal to install, nothing huge about it, no probs there. afew ingame shots of this thing as some of you are probaly wondering what it looks like ingame.











now the bit i wasnt impressed with was the scope, i dont know if this was just a 1 off error or if its ment to be like this or if u are still trying to fix this prob, but here is how the scope looked:





wasnt relal a scope atall, but when u fired the rifle, it did come up with a thina black arear witch looked like a small scope that i havent seen on anouther rifle in BF2. But i want this to be on all the time, its abit tacky / stupid to have no scope, it would be better to use anouther scope for mthe SVD or somthing if u cant get that 1 working than have no scope :roll:



I did have a little test on the power thou, it took 8 shtos to destroy a DVP and if u standed upclose to a blackhawk and fire a bullit into it, u will die



so its exstramly powerfull to say the least, i just need to test it out with some other ppl to see how gd it is and if its unbanced ect :wink:



Also this gun dosent have any sounds, Could you ask a sound guy from a mod to quickly make up some sounds or just use some sounds from BF2 for this gun

would make it so much better :wink:

[Rhino]

Ive tested it now in MP with afew guys and first of all, wtf is up with the pilots helmet









also ive found out that the scop is sort of there, it just aint there when u need it. when u fire a shot u can just see a little bit of it. i couldnt get a screen shot of that bit but i got a pic of when he was tapping the gun in scop view:





also, when u move back and forth when in scope mode u can see your hand come up:





lits of what me and the ppl agreed with want to fix:

*sound, the gun needs sound, can u just nick the sounds off the m95?

*scope, need this fixed with a proper scope, it is there u just need to get it working.

*less power, far to powerfull.

*no exsplosive ammo, this was just to powerful and just mean when it came to close combat u wouold just shoot at your feat and kill both of u.

*ghille suit no pilot helmet, it looks fun at first, but the white helemt really sticks out.

*keep the muzzle flash, good for spotting the sniper when they are concealed.



think thats all

i am not military, and that barret does not have a 5 round capacity, my bad, i mixed up 2 diff rifles, a rental i used for fun at the range, and the m82 i get on loan. , after firing the barret i was bleeding throguh the pores in my skin of my shoulder!!!!!



in total i have fired 50's about 20 times. after the first few i realized why they are for tactical sniping and not so much at intense ammo blasting war.



if you dont consider me a vetran user oh well, i consider myself a vetran user when i need to take several asprin a day up to 2 days after a session with that gun.....

/../

ZARK, i was wrong i admit, cool your jets though, your acting like i personally insulted you and well, I DIDNT

No sweat, but the word 'veteran' [regarding military] in my ears means 'been to combat/extensive experience'.Hence why I reacted to your wording that you where a veteran with the gun and then slanting the guy of about the mag-size. =)

did you guys find my beta download on bf2co or did you tweak it yourself.....



if you guys will download the files i have, i have added scope, sounds, adjusted ammo, and some other tweaks and the rifle is completely ready to use.......



the rifle is inacurate as hell while your walking, but standing still its good, laying down it owns



the scope is the same off the m95, to save space and time i used some parts from bf2 that were already there to fill in gaps.



i will post a link as soon as it isuploaded to my server. small dialup friendly download, under 300kb as i recall.

[masterx]

the scope flash you may have seen when you fire is built into the bundlemesh and uneditable unless you've found how to decrypt them.....

[masterx]

download at will, this is the code and install instructions as of now....

[Rhino]

yes i did download it from your site and that was my results, ill try again soon thou

[masterx]

if i didnt mention, the latest download has full sounds, realistic power ammunition, and a full range scope, the zoom has 2 selections, close and far, not my intention, but i was unable to remove the stock low zoom ea put on for testing..... the scope flash when firing is also EA's doing, as well as the poor animations, EA did not intentionally do these errors, the rifle wasnt sposed to be in bf2, but i made it useable, i have tweaked as best i can to make it look good. i dont do animation..... maybe someone can tweak the animatuion files and send to me to put itno the pack, i'd be gratefull and share credits.....

[kano]

this is the view i am trying to get on this weopon for our mod





any ideas how i get this?
