Hey
Yesterday i began to model the M99. Thats the Result. I think i will finish it tomorrow.
It is an single shot 50.CAL Rifle.
Maybe i will make a special high explosive ammo that kills everything :P.
And the animation will be much quicker than the R78.
Here are some Pics:

:shock:

You sir are awesome at modelling, i wish i hada tenth of your level of skill, i tip my hat to you sir!

:hello:

However, a single shot kill gun may make the other sniperseem inferior to it, even the railgun...

Now that looks really good! It does look like the gun without a scope ATM of course. :P

We get these finished up, then maybe we can throw together a weapons pack soon!

Thanks all
@zer0:
Hey thanks but you are better than i ever will in texturing ;)
@OC Adam:
Maybe that would be an very good idea i will look forward to it.

Sorry about the delay but i havnt got any time the last days to continue the M99.
But finaly i made it :)
Maybe it will be in BW if i can manage to texture and animate it. Can i use the standart ballistic arms?

I think I prefer the auto fire from the m925 to the zoom of this. ;)

Aren't ehre a bit too much polys on the scope?

Author:  OCAdam [ Sat Aug 23, 2008 6:05 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

I think that scope is what makes the gun look 100% great. I think this might replace the M75 for me... At least this is a single shot gun that makes sense on the power being extremely high!

:yahoo:

Exactly as high as the m925 machinegun we have.

Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

You know our M925 does pathetically low damage for a .50 machine gun, right?

Unless you're talking about my M925...

Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

I know. Therefore no of these 0.5 sniper ideas would be anything spectacular.

I havn't tested your version for a while. :/

@Kien:
The ammunition of the M920 is very tenny in comparising to the 50. BMG LINK
The whole model has got 10000 Polys. I think that is ok.
@OCAdam:
Yea I was looking very long for this scope but with an texture on it it would be much more nicer.
Are you skilled in animating or such things?

I don't understand what you mean. Anywa the m925. (not too sure about it's exact name) is a heavy machine gun. The barret thing fires the same ammunition as a heavy machine gun. So it's damage should be the same. Nothing more fancy. And any how it should not come very close to the railgun.

About polygons, 10 000 you say. The mingun has around 5000 if I am not too wrong, with 6 barrels and all it's requires a good amount of polygons. It's fairly ok with your rifle here anyway since the game is old enough to not bother preformance very much with the polycounts, but the principle of keeping it propotional. Also too detailed things will contrast too much compared to stuff.

Far from the same ammo. M925's 50 cal bullet shape is probably vastly different in shape than the M99's 50 cal bullet. Along with that, I'm pretty sure the M99's bullet is a lot longer and has more power behind the bullet to send it gliding through the air.

Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

Don't they both fire that 0.50BMG round? Barret 99 and 82 and possibly other versions fire that. 12,7x99mm, which is made for heavy machineguns (also used by a few snipers). A few other HMG shoots 12,7x107mm. And some crazy russian 4 barreled KVP shoots 14,5mm. (O,o)

The bullets doesnt look that long and the Desert Eagle has also 50. CAl

Author:  Kien [ Sun Aug 24, 2008 5:22 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

Yes not on the model it self perhaps but the idea is that it is a HMG therefore shooting the 0.50BMG rounds. Image Why are you mentioning desert eagle??

Author:  zer0 [ Sun Aug 24, 2008 7:39 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

Well actually the desert eagle fires 50. cal rounds

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/ab/Rifle_cartridge_comparison.jpg
The one on the left is the bullet used by the m99, it is a 50. cal

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/82/CartridgeComparison.jpg

The three on the left can be used by the Desert eagle, the one on the far left is a 50. cal.

Calibre is actually the diameter of the barrel of the gun measured in inches, so a 50.cal would have a diameter of half an inch, so it does not actually refer to the amount of propulsion used (gunpowder), if im not mistaken, which i probably am... correct me if i am... wrong...
:doh:

Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

Yes longer case more gun powder. :) Also longer cases has also longer bullets I am not crazy wrong. Unless it's a special version of the ammo which is longer to contain more gun powder. I think that is what magnum ammunition is. A desert eagle shoots same diameter as heavy machine guns do, but not the same ammunition...

Author:  zer0 [ Sun Aug 24, 2008 8:11 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

Yeah, so all 50.cal bullets are not the same; a desert eagle wouldn't have the same power of the M99, something like that in a gun like the desert eagle would split your nose in half or rip your arm off!!!

:rotfl:

Author:  Kien [ Sun Aug 24, 2008 9:21 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

Right. But the barret has the same ammo as heavy machine guns, and sicne the m925 is a HMG, they should have the same damage.

Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

That image of the M925 is a little misleading. The perspective makes the rounds look smaller than they really are. Here's a better shot:

Image

The M925 definitely fires .50 caliber rounds, though they appear very different from the .50 BMG used by real machine guns and the Barrett rifles:

Image

They both seem to have about the same overall case length, though the BMG bullet is much pointier, and appears to be a little bit longer than the M925's round. However, assuming the bullets have the same diameter, the M925 appears to have a larger overall case diameter than the BMG, so I presume it has a larger powder charge.

I suppose it's rather pointless to compare the weapons to their real-world equivalents, as BW's damage values are wildly inconsistent. The M353, for example, appears to do less torso damage per shot than a single shotgun pellet (though does more against heads and limbs). The RS8 does much more damage per shot than the XRS-10, despite the fact that they basically fire the same round. The AM67 does higher torso and limb damage per shot at point blank than the M925, though it does drop off in damage much faster.

single shot? :cray:
What about 2-3 bullets?

Author:  fische11 [ Tue Aug 26, 2008 3:19 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

Hmm maybe you like the M95 :P
But i think singel shot will be better for a real powerful explosive weapon and i will add an extra velocity accelerator :D

Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

You will make it a railgun you mean? You just want to make a barret that is stronger than what we have in BW? Don't you. (o,o) The railgun shoots 20mm uranium things and requires a miniature nuclear ractor, which is carried on the back. :/

Author:  OCAdam [ Wed Aug 27, 2008 5:31 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

IIRC, sniper rifles we have in real life are already stronger than the railgun we have in BW. But.... I'm nothing of a gun nut, so I may be wrong on that account.

Author:  Kien [ Wed Aug 27, 2008 7:07 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Barrett M99 Anti Material Rifle

Errrr... something that has close to 2 times the diameter of the bullet (12,7 against 20), made of heaver material (lead against uranium) and travels at least twice the speed (~950m/s against say 2000m/s). :? Current prototype railguns shoots about 3000/ms.

The railgun in BW is more of a hand carried extra powerful autocannon. >=20mm caliber is classified as autocannons. ;) Sub caliber autocannons has a velocity of ~1500m/s.

Edit:
Here is perhaps the most powerful hand carried rifle thing. It fires 20mm just as the railgun. Looks more like a small cannon. Still this thing does not shoot uranium or at the speed of a railgun.

I've never heard of any sniper rifle taking down an M1 Abrams in 2 shots :P
