Simple question really, though obviously not sure if anybody will be around to answer it! Thought I might as well try anyway.

On first person in Jedi Knight/Mysteries of the Sith it is impossible to fully empty the view, as you always have the tip of the gun or the fists showing - is it possible to empty the first person view? Can this also be done on Multiplayer? Perhaps a simple cog? (I put the post in here as I was not sure if it was cog related/I'm missing something simple)


Any help anybody can offer here is very much appreciated. Not really expecting anybody to remember how to cog, let alone read the post mind you

Ahhh.. memories being back here on this page!

Why exactly do you want to remove the weapon from view? Are you trying to take a screenshot without the gun?

Just pull out some thermal detonators, hold down the fire button, and snap your shot.

Or, open Jed, and make a blank 3do to replace one of the weapon 3dos. Should work anywhere from MP games to SP games to Counter-Strike games.

Thermals! Ahhhhhhhhhh why didn't I think of that. Doh. Genius, good man.

Cheers for that. Mainly was to enable a CS/Half Life style floating spectator camera for recording stuff. With a gun sticking out it'd look poor obviously - turns out by holding secondary fire on the thermals you get the "no hands" look I was looking for.

Much appreciated!

If I remember correctly, when you were building a level and if you never set the start-up to give player weapons and what not, it would start you with 'empty hands' untill you picked or pulled something out

That's also true

Yeah, there's a weapon in the items.dat file that is before the fists, it's called Null.

It's what the player has in that very senario, Zanardi

This is why Massasi is, and always shall be the most awesome place for any JK series editing - everybody's so helpful!

I miss the simple days of JED when throwing a bit of coloured lighting in a level made you king of the world
