Maybe its just me but I would like to see some British stuff in there. I have just spent a week in an army base and for most of it, have been using the SA80 A2, a perfectly reliable, accurate and highly individual weapon. Jon Fletcher had a good go at it in mp5 but I would love to see a high detail model. The only game I have seen it in is Shadow of Chernobyl and I and most of the gamers in the British millitary would love to see it more.

It's allright so far but some things are wonky like the Nvidia settings are in Thai language and I can't figure out how to set to english :/"


That's good. Does that mean you'll be making more weapons and uploading them? Oh, BTW, does this mean that you will stop making guns for X9, and start for X10? That would not be good.

Make sure you rename the new texture the same as the old one. Should be hand_d.jpeg or something like that. You shouldn't have to delete any .dbo files.

There's some European stuff on the drawing board including SA80s. I've been disrtacted playing STALKER and loving it so far. It's given me some inspiration.

Yes but I'm not sure when. Nope, this should not signal the end of X9 development for me. It does signal a slight ramp-up to x10 dev. though. At this time, I have no reason to think it should be a mutually exclusive thing.

For your next weapons you should make some machine guns/smgs. We really need some quality mgs from you. Thanks.

Because the SAW is my faivourite one, and that cant be the only mg in my game.

How about one of those smaller ones like in wwii, only modern.

Saiga is definitely on the list. SVD is low priority behind other more modern sniper rifles.

Sure there is... But I need to be somewhat restrained with the content published through TGC.

Both versions have been delivered to Airslide. It's up to him how and when they are sold either by themselves or distributed with AirMod SDK or AirMod SE.

The XM8 was donated to Airslide for him to promote AirMod and to potentially get him a little monetary compensation for all his hard work. If he chooses to do so, he can sell it on GCS. It won't be in my section though. I generally do the gunspec scripting myself but in this case there are some functions that weren't coded when I handed off the assets. I've also left him some of the dirty work of making entity FPEs and whatnot.

One issue we really haven't resolved is how to effectively place the more advanced AirMod-ready weapons like XM8 and SCAR with grenade launchers on GCS, due to the fact they are more-so incompatible with basic FPSC than non alt-fire weapons (which work fine in normal FPSC). We may need to seek a 3rd party option.

Since I've got the altflak parameter which is read by stock it should be possible to make it compatible with stock. The catch is that they won't get the grenade launcher unless you provide an extra weapon like model pack 9 or 10. I suppose you could do that, giving the extra weapon no AirMod features, and telling users of AirMod to just use the normal weapon as it will feature the grenade launcher built in.

Ammo would be a problem. You use a new script for alt ammo (basically with ::altammo added to the normal ammo script), but that means the entity has to point to the normal weapon. My suggestion would probably be to have two grenade pickups, one marked for the grenade launcher version (however you wish to do that) and one marked for AirMod or something.

The ammo thing I think will be an issue getting through GCS QA. I suppose I should email Janet/Rick about it. Another option might be like a patch or something if you still have that installer you wrote laying around somewhere. Something that just installs the AirMod related media. Either way I suppose there's no rush what with physX compo and all

Apologies for the lack of updates. Been annoyed with this monitor because it lacks the contrast and view angle range of my old desktop monitor. So, I've been procrastinating a bit but not wholly unproductive. I've been busy collecting reference images for things

I see that Airslide's shotgun code has been added to the latest official update. I should soon be uploading the final updates for the mp9/10 shotguns because they don't require any additional texture work other than what has already been done when I updated the animations a few months ago. I will reconfigure the gunspec so that the new style reloading works in both updated and AirModded FPSC. I have yet to see if the 870P works as-is in the new update (reload commands may be beyond the 100th line in gunspec and not read).

I am also working on a simple website to disseminate information about assets, updates, etc. Both for new and old assets which have been completed and can be purchased from TGC or elsewhere (no WIP stuff).

BTW, I forgot to transfer my youtube cookie and can not log in to my old account because I forgot the password and the account is tied to an email I have not had in years. So, I have been and will be unaware of any comments or questions posted on my videos there.

Thanks for everyone's continued interest and patience while I get things up to speed once more.

or you can if you want but you would feel the wrath of the most respected designer on this site
and you can expect other people to jump on the band wagon

Same here If your asking if someone can modify the files to use their own weapons, I'm not going to stop anyone. The licence allows users to modify assets to suit their game(s). The catch being that you can't mod the assets and then turn around and distribute/sell them.

Quote: "EAI, what do you average poly/vert wise on the average gun?"


Tri count averages between 3K and 5K with a 5K hard limit. I think the M249A has the most geometry with 4726 tris. That includes the weapon, hands, ammo, casing, links, etc.

Quote: "Great work errant but will this pack come out for fps x10? "


Short answer: No.

Long answer: I don't have X10 and TGC does not offer a download version same as it does for X9 and there isn't a real demo which can have assets tested in it. For the time being, I'm about 8000 miles away from my shipping address, so that sort of complicates things. That said, I do want to try converting some assets to X10 now that I have a PC which can run it. However, see hurdles above.

I still fail to see why there is not a trial/demo version of x10 available.Asking someone to buy it on good faith is getting old.
Just think...if there were a demo version available or a trial version (or even a limited version so those that make media for x10 can test it) then the stuff can be converted by those that made it.
It's hard to believe after all this time there's no demo for FPSC x10.

Totally agree about the need for a demo. Especially considering the higher retail price of X10.

Don't know if you caught this Keith but TGC mentioned in the last newsletter that they will be fixing X10 so that X9 assets work in it rather than converting media to work with X10. This is a very welcome announcement IMO.

Sorry, no updates to show and tell right now but I should have something totally unexpected to announce in a week or so

I agree.Then I can just slap all the stuff I made in x9 into x10 and go.My x9 models are iffy (not the quality...) in x10 due to that nifty three views type thing where the texture changes when you get closer.
I wish there was an option to disable it.
I'm glad TGC put something in the newsletter about this.Some of the folks in the x10 board were lighting torches and grabbing pitchforks...and they were looking for me.
If I could put all of the x9 media available in x10 I am going to be a happy developer...
