sunday sunday sunday on the aa.com server
 

intelligence reports that this sunday the 13th of october the aa.com server will be invaded by strik0r's god damn rifle zoom mod ckr version compliments of rudedog. the intention was to make rifles a tad bit more attractive since MGs are usually used as automatic rifles. the only changes in the entire thing is a minor non-scoped zoom on the garand and kar. everything else is identical to ckr 2.0 with the garand reload allowed.

don't think that's fair? fine, go back to your mgs. like rifles but don't like the zoom? fine, nobody is forcing you to use the zoom.

below are a few resized screens from a typical scenario on rapeagain

I dont mind ... When i first started playing i found a mod that scoped all the weapons ... even in single player .. pretty fun. I miss ckr 1.0 tho oOo:
The bar is such a p.o.s. in 2.0. It takes 10 rounds to kill someone. 1.0 you could fire in burst and kill with one hit. I dont even mind the slow walking.
Evenone had to cry until they made the stg and bar equal. Now there are mods where the r.o.f. for the bar is equal to the stg .. god it sucks !!!!

thats a good idead but hasn't someone already made a mod similiar?

Ah sorry to double post but i wouldnt mind seeing a rifles only day.

[quote="Spiderm@n":0cdef]thats a good idead but hasn't someone already made a mod similiar?[/quote:0cdef]

yes there was a similar one made but it uses stock files, and stock rifles with zoom in a CKR server is a little pointless so i made one myself.

judas i don't know what you mean about the BAR, i never had that problem with it at all.

What do you use to zoom , the secondary attack button , same as sniper zoom ??
Judas , I've noticed that it takes a couple more hits with the BAR for a kill lately, I thought I was just missing the target. biggrin: I also noticed that you move a bit faster with the M1. I didn't know that CKR had been tweaked.

yep it works just like a sniper zoom except without the scope, it hides your weapon model but the muzzle flash is still there, i don't know how to do anything about that tho. i'll have to test the BAR out too, now that i think of it i have been a little rifle/smg/rocket happy lately angel:

Hey judas, find the all rifle mod and lets set up a rifles only day. its up to you.

As for the CKR, I hope I did not mess up the CKR mod. I mean when XGS hosting had to reinstall my MOH they wiped everything. I had to up it from my archives. so I hope I did not up the wrong version. I will check on that later today.

Also wanted to bump strik0r's post

Actually, I thought the BAR is pretty close to the STG in ROF for the real life weapons. At least that is what I have seen.

If I'm around, I'd like to check it out. I might be playing paintball, but we'll see.

BAR has 550 RPM where the STG has 500 RPM, the fire delay on the BAR in mohaa is 0.12 where the fire delay on the STG is 0.086

seems a little off to me but i think the lower ROF on the BAR make up for the 10 round clip difference

If Strik0r made it, it scares me! cry:

Uhh strikor this isn't medal of honor frontline where the garand has a partial zoom. eek:

I don't really see the point in this to be honest, you're basically making the garand a semi automatic sniper rifle. Medal of honor online is a piss poor piece of shit as far as im concerned but adding a zoom to the garand like this is a bit daft imo. I can see the argument about allowing the garand to relaod whenever you need as this could be done in real life.

People will most likely switch from being anoying cunts with the mg's to being annoying cunts with rifles now :/

Would it be possible fro crowking to edit his mod from being one where the mg's rule all to something that even REMOTELY resembles realism? ie: not having every wanker using bar's and stg's to fucking snipe you from across the map.

while playing with ya Strik0r I noticed the zooming on the mauser...cool feature.

Sounds interesting Strykor.....But where did you get the cross hair mod in the screen shot......I like the look pf the green dot vs. the stock cross hair......would you mind sharing ????

Thanks.

This is up and running.

I jumped in ( I got a ping of 54 holy poop )
This is not what I expected strik0r. This is very well done. You don't get the same full zoom as a sniper rifle just a very small zoom. I like it a lot

Oh and that line did not come out like I wanted. Not that I did not think you could do this. I was just under the impression, it was a full zoom.

Very good Strik0r.

The thing about this partial zoom on rifles is great. I don't see how it would be such an issue, especially for all you bf1942 guys out there. In bf1942 you can do a partial zoom on all weapons (except sniper where the zoom is full). I basically chalk it up to squinting your eyes to focus further away. eek:

Where can I get this MOD, Strik0r? I'd be willing to give it a try one or two nights a week on AAN.net.

that all depends on how it goes today. if everyone starts using nothing but the rifle or everyone uses them to take the place of sniper rifles then i may have to make adjustments.

i had an idea for a mod that might be kind of cool ... i was gonna ask you this morning but you left b4 i could get a chance. I think it would be cool to allow the player to run for short periods like in dod. I dont know if this is possible or not but would be nice for those long maps like crossroads and algiers ... just a thought.

as it is fun actually playing when the rifle actually works with the zoom, unlike the testing yesterday oOo:

oh be quiet, so i put a FEW too many 0s on the starting ammo

only bugs i noticed was it says sniped by when you rifle someone, i guess because of the zoom the game recognizes it as a sniper rifle. can't think of how to fix that one without editing the localization.txt

Coleman gives it 2 thumbs up! cool:

What do you think guys? Should we keep this up? should strik0r teak it a bit?

I personally like this mod.

But this one is also up to the regular players out there.

I say keep it!

I like the mod. Personally I never use the rifle but I did try it.There are times when it will come in handy. I say keep it.

*puts on mustache*
*deep voice*
i think we should use the money to invest in the nuclear power plant!
eek:

i've been trying to improve it, mostly along the lines of getting it to say rifled by instead of sniped by without changing the localization but so far no luck, currently the only change has been giving the KAR 85 starting ammo, it was at 60 which was the same as the sniper rifle

i was pleased with the results yesterday. not eveyrbody, but more people were using the rifle which was exactly what i was trying to do. also saw more SMGs than ever yesterday, i don't know if that was related or what.

LOL strik0r,
//Rudedog points to strik0r's sig -That's why we don't have FF on the server. biggrin:

I thought it was cool.

anything to lower the number of mg users is a good thing to me.

it was asstacular

I actually put my scope away for a few in exchange for the KAR. I thought it was cool with the wee-scope, heh

My vote goes for keeping it up. I used it for a while yesterday and it worked very well but I have to switch to the BAR on certain maps to keep from getting owned too bad. biggrin: I like it because you don't have to use the zoom if you don't want to so you have a choice of using the mod or not. Good job Strikor !! As for the text saying "sniped" instead of "rifled" , who cares , if I'm dead , I'm dead! angel:

Count me in!
 

I like it! Let's keep it!
