Hi everyone, my first post here. I find this mod impressivly ambitious and well made.
Now to the weapon. Type: Futuristic energy weapon. Hardly noticable recoil from both fire modes. Look: Similar to a real life rifle but with a little sci-fi look. 3 short barrels at the front placed like a triad shape. Like in the picture in the link. Dark grey in color with a few glowing spots used in explanation below. http://img114.imageshack.us/img114/8518 ... ob6.th.png Primary fire: 3 instant hit, not too bright, red-orange lightings. The first barrel shoots and then rotates 120 deg so the second barrel gets in place and then shoots like the first one. Then the process is repeated for the 3rd barrel. Each rotation taks ~0.25 seconds. This simply means a 3 burst lightning with a nice rotation animation. After each burts there is a 1.5 seconds "cooldown". Each lightning does ~45 damage. Each fire sounds like some kind of "cracky" spark. Secondary fire: Not too sure yet. But after a 0.5 seconds delay all 3 barrels shoots at the same time (without any spin animation) a slightly thicker lighting is shot which can chain to a maximum of 3 extra targets if it hits. Primary target takes 60 damage. For each extra target damage is reduced to a factor of 0.66. "Cooldown" of 4 seconds. Before each fire, the weapon glows orange at some light spots so you know that it is "reloading". Special: None. Ammo: Primary fire burst takes 3 ammo. Secondary takes 5. Each energy clip contains 20 ammo. Maximum ammo of 60. Very short perpare time (waht do you call it?) and fairly short reload time. Note: I'm not too sure about the damage vaules. I think the primary fire deserves to be able to kill if all lightnigns hits. I'm not sure how to balance the 2 fire modes. The secondary fire might sound better than primary but that's why it has much lower damage. |

When you say the secondary can chain to 3 targets do you mean that if you make a direct hit; the shot continues to another target, and then another target after that? If so thats not bad, reminds me of the mutalisk from starcraft. I like the sound of more energy weapons (particulary lightning) but ill see what other have to say before I comment further. |

Yes exactly. EDIT: I tried to make a 3d rendering of how I want it to look. I'm not good at either modeling or design so don't expect too much. The beam is supposed to be a lightning but I didn't bother to make it look like one. The 3 lowing spots under the weapon is the clip. The other 3 glows as long as the weapon is ready to fire, which means they turn of after each burst untill you can shoot again. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa45 ... grifle.png Here you can see a little shooting animation. http://files.filefront.com/Triad_burst_ ... einfo.html |

I know and it's only the shape of the barrels I'm talking about. See my second post with the 3d rendering. |

Actualy that rendering isnt too bad, it may be blocky but its just enough to give us a good picture of what you want. I should try something like that myself. I know you want lightning but a beam may be suitable for that kind of design anyway. The lightning gun we already have has set a high standard for lightning effects that could be hard to beat. |

But why does it have to beat it? Why can't it be of the same quality? Booh. :{ I wanted a lightning rifle but it's your decision. Mr-UglyPants wrote: Dude, your fu*king amazing in my books.

I want to learn modeling but I find myself just playing around with the tools instead of making something serious. I'm not good at it. I have only made simple single objects. |
