tyokio Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Working on a mod to get a new assault rifle, I've seen a few mods trying to get the m16 in there so I thought I'd make my own version of it. I'm going to call it the "US Assault Rifle" though because I'd be setting myself up for some flames that I didn’t get the gun 100% accurate to the real thing. Here’s the model out side the game (no textures)(LINK) Here’s when I got it to work in game (the one time..)(LINK)the texture is just one I threw on so I could actually see it in game. I've run into a few issues though :C.. when I try to load a game which has the modded weapon either in the location of the save or equipped, the game crashes. I managed to get the mod to work eventually but the projectile node was facing the wrong direction (which made bullets shoot upwards in 3rd person), so I rotated it to the position that every other mod had the node at (-90,0,-90) and the mod wouldn’t work again, I even replaced it with the un edited node and it still crashed when loading the save. the only thing that seems to affect whether it works or not is in the fallout mod manager when I move the positions around and apply/remove the archive invalidation but even then it works very rarely. As soon as I have it running with out issues I'll begin to texture it, aiming for a beaten up look so it will fit the rest of the game. Perhaps even some additional details to the mesh seeing as I'm not aiming for accuracy. Any crits welcome, help on this isssue would be very welcomed as I'm really new to this fallout modding stuff.

343guiltymc Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 The carrying handle is a bit too small, and the buttstock looks rather blocky...What's the point of adding that rail thing at the bottom when it's going to just clip into the hand?

tyokio Posted January 14, 2009 Author Share Posted January 14, 2009 because it looks cool B ) clipping has never really bothered me, plus the clipping isnt that bad. I do agree with the buttstock, but that was because I was following a design which was pretty blocky in its self.. it could do with a little smoothing though.. right now I only care about the main issue of actually getting it to work in game with out crashing lol. once I've done that I'm going to ad my own design features to make it unique, I'd be foolish to make a replica because it will never be 100% to the gun nuts lol.

NaboeN Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I love that rail you got under the gun, seriously! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkelly Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 put nade launcer on the rail or a flash light. also when you release it can you make a clean texture version and a dirty texture version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
343guiltymc Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Why would you put a nade launcher on it? The whole thing would just clip into the hand, and you can't actually use it or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyokio Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share Posted January 15, 2009 If some one was daring to try and script that, I'd love to build this as a mod (link) that would rock c: also I made some ajustments to the model, (link) still trying to figure out the problem I'm having.. any one know of some one who could help me on that? UPDATE: Problem has been solved. followed the tutorial this time : D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
