Maxim machine gun
« on: December 30, 2009, 01:07:14 AM »
I was watching some of the ww2 footage from the A&E's "The World at War" and I saw that the Russians liked the idea of putting these guns on skies and I thought that would be nice to see in the mod. They could still use skies on the summer maps and it would be great to see the Maxim in the mod...

Wasnt there a problem with putting the Maxim into the mod. I know there is a model around somewhere, but the devs could not get infantry to man it or something along those lines

 - That's the MODEL. He said there is no ANIMATION for it.
 Model... animation... different, see? :)
 
 - As for maxim on ski, not a problem. Except on Grassland,
 of course. Sand, downtown summer roads... oh yea ;)
 MG on skis ;)
You know, there are many people in the country today who, through no fault of their own, are sane. Some of them were born sane. Some of them became sane later in their lives. It is up to people like you and me who are out of our tiny little minds to try and help these people overcome their sanity

it could work on grass. The skies could still go on grass and for urban places it could still work. I would just LOVE to see this thing in the mod

Guys, it is pretty much impossible to add custom infantry animations to some thing. To get it working properly needs a lot of work and knwoledge. Maxim will probably need to wait better times.
Sorry if my english is bad I am from Croatia.
