I have posted the latest version of Contemporary Weapons Mod for JK on the JK Editing Hub.

http://www.jkhub.net/project/show.php?projid=72§ion=download

I made this a new topic because last time, it seemed like a lot of people didn't notice when I posted it in the other thread way back when I released the first version.

Things that changed since the last version:
weapon 2 the peashooter
weapon 6 can zoom in with a scope
weapon 7 the blower-upper
weapon 7 Goldeneye-style explosion. For JK, I like it.

Post whatever bugs or problems or other things that bug you here please.

It's really good, some the best work I've seen thus far.

Minor bugs include the tip of the weapon 3do not visible when up close and facing a wall, and when firing (close to a wall) causes the bullet hole 3dos to attach to the player's perspective (ie. moves with the player). But these are minor things.

Awesome work.

Very awesome. Definatly one of the best gun mods I've played. I can only imagine the amount of work that went into it thus far, I mean the machine gun keys are... phenominal!

The only thing I could see that CavEmaN didn't talk about was the shells ejected from the gun interfere with elevators and sometimes the internal model doesn't show up at the beginning of a single player level but it still plays the sounds and fires (happened on all but the first level of the stock JK campaign).

I like how you get the gun to follow a target, You might already have this planned, but maybe you could get it to auto aim when you fire too rather than just pointing at the target.

I actually didn't plan that...

It just seems kind of strange that the gun follows a target, but still fires straight forward reguardless of where it's pointing, not really a big deal, just kind of confusing until you get used to it.

Anyway, it was just a suggestion.

Auto aim should be turned off anyway

Very good, I second all positive comments that have been said. The keys are especially excellent.

The only other problem I've noticed is the 'magazines' for the sniper rifle don't show up.

The sniper rifle doesn't have one. It's reloaded shot for shot. I know what you mean, though, you'd like to see how many shots are remaining before you have to reload. Well, Proddy, maybe you could handle the sniper the opposite way: display the "backpack" ammo as numbers and display the remaining shots in gun as battery dots?

A damn fine mod you are brewing up. I like the models and animations!

I thought that the bullets need to do more damage, but I could be wrong. How much damage do the shots do?

Maybe, could you increase the speed of the bullets too?

The faster the bullets get, the screwer collision gets

Your pistol turned into an ugnaught, and I couldn't reload.

Did it happen seemingly randomly or did it happen with something specific? Which version are you playing?

It first happened when I shot an ugnaught in that level (level 9 of JK SP). When I fire again, he appears to get 'hurt' and there's a blood splatter, and he eventually 'dies', though he plays no animation.

BTW: Daft is future posting below me, yet I'm still listed as the "Last Post" in the main Forum view.

That is the most bizzarre glitch I have ever heard of.

I had something similar happen today using the newest version; I was using a standard JK player model in multiplayer (kyh4.3do to be precise) but I instead just showed up as normal old ky.3do. Also, a grappling hook I was using wasn't getting its custom hook model; it was just showing up as a rail detonator model. My best guess is you're hitting a 3do count limit.

P.S. - I miss the bulletholes.

How do I change the 3do count?

Well, the easiest way to avoid the problem is to name models to replace JK's defaults (like bryv.3do and bryg.3do for weapon 2, strv and g for weapon 3, etc.).

After you use up all of JK's main defaults, in static.jkl's MODELS section, add in the names of all models that overflow (count-wise) past JK's defaults.

It's tedious to go back through all the COGs and reset all the 3do names, but that should solve this issue.

I know you have multiple external mesh models for each weapon, but even after you add a few more weapons, you should be below the limit as long as you do that junk.

Also, if someone knows that something I said is incorrect (as this is just from my personal experience, but some things could have just been coincidence that what I did fixed it) please speak up. This mod is awesome, and PO should get our full attention on squashing annoying bugs like this.

Uhm, just increase the model count in the static.jkl. I imagine the max is 640 or so, considering the default thing count maximum.

PO has it set to 3000 in their static.jkl, it doesn't seem to help.
