    Dude I don't know from that crazy science talk you just said, but if you want to fix it, I will make babies with a local woman and then sacrifice them to the god of your choosing.

    tldr: someone get this guy what he needs!

    i looked in the svn and since we dont got any original model files i'll have to reimport all that and do it even for every animation
    so it might take longer than some minutes
    i'll give it a look though since im stuck on the stingray eitherway
    but not before monday
    (and im not pretty sure if i can work on it even then (exams))

    BUT
    no early excitement please
    as all good things this has a downside too
    as with seemingly all models (who guesses it? RIGHT)
    this one got no texture i can use

    so
    one suggestion
    we could write a sign on that thicker part with something like:
    clear back before firing
    or something like that

    That's just his way of saying "I love this, let's do it!"
    Chris does the same thing, but he's more verbose.

    Nice one, MOOtant.
    For the modeler, please look up some references to how RPG sights look like, before going into modeling them. That will save your life a lot of the time.

    as if i modeled them from start on

    i only removed the shield and the rest stayed as they were
    noone here said i should alter the sight

    (and of course your method of just removing the texture looks WAAAAY better -.-)

    and if you are such a fucking pessimist, fine dont use it then
    save your old model and replace it

    and since when is empires on that realism trip again?

    I am also using the no-texture method. Because it's so much simpler.
    But if you are going to rework a shitty model, you should at least aim at a higher level of quality, and not be a bitch when constructive criticism is given to you.

    yeah well maybe i got it a bit wrong

    and this isnt the final solution
    it is only that simple because we dont have to change the textures and animations for it, only the model
    so that it is more balanced at first
    we can do that cosmetical stuff later

    but eitherway could someone post some references pls?
    i dont really know what names to search for

    @Zenarion and Trickster: A short description on how to make that texture disappear would also be great. :D

    Is it just renaming a file or does one need a custom skin for that?

    Afaik it uses an alpha over the texture, but Zenarion did it and sent it to me nearly 2 years ago, so I don't remember.

    Just upload that, Trickster. There is really no need to get into technicalities.

    i dont get your point mootant, since you dont have much control over server owners (and them using sv_pure) everyone uses it anyway, so all you do with your stubborn nay-saying is creating a gap between newbies and those who chea ... nonono, rephrase flasche ... use altered game content.
