Heavy Knight Finally Steals Back His Crossbow

Spirrwell

If you've been playing this mod for a long time, you may know that in the beginning, it was the Heavy Knight who had a crossbow. Then when the Archer came, he stole the crossbow from the Heavy Knight. I've helped the Heavy Knight steal it back!




Joking aside, I've been working on getting the animations for firstperson shared like they are for thirdperson. You may be familiar with randomizer severs that randomize weapons. But they all use the wrong hands! Well except if you happen to get the weapons that go to your class.

It would be a bit silly if I was only doing this for a server plugin, and there is something more I plan to do with these, but for now, here's some screenshots of some of the work I've already done. Please keep in mind, it's still a work in progress, and it does look incredibly weird for the Captain having only one hand and all. Enjoy!












I've done more than this, but I don't want to spam you guys too much with images right now. Hope you randomizer guys will like this!

+1 Very useful All our 1v1 tournaments are currently done as Archer Vs SS with both players using the same weapon. (i.e. both twosword, butterknife, vikingshield, ect) As the only two classes with the same HP/Arm/Speed, it is currently the only way to do a completely "fair" fight in a 1v1 situation. This leads to a lot of clunky graphics, but the competitive players mainly only notice it when using cl first person uses world model. Several weapons will bug out completely in world model when used by classes that do not normally have them. Not making any animation unless you go first person, which is usually a disadvantage against another skilled opponent. Thus my question, does this also apply to world model or is it first person exclusive?

Typically in a competitive situation a serious player always wants to use the animation option that has the least screen obstruction, allowing maximum viability/situational awareness. I've built up a reskin pack collection including many of your own old mods for not wearing armor like dixon HK and laura Arch. (less screen clutter with thinner arms )
The only mathematical advantage first person view offers over world model is the HK 2h sword (arms clutter screen in world) and the xbow1/2+ssrifle when taking long range shots at a target moving in a way that you have to lead to the left of them. (xbow1/2+SS rifle block right side of crosshair when ADS in world model)
Negro's "No Hands" mod in combination with Links's "Gauntlets of Steel" = Absolutely nothing for the HK when using swordshield. A quake player's dream.

Anyway I hope world model can be a part of this, if not oh well.

By the way I'll give $66.6 to anyone who makes a mod to completely disable all weapon animations in first person view but leave them intact for world model. (ง ͠° ͟ل͜ ͡°)ง

I'm up for that, if you give me some proper specifics.

Can we get a picture of the Heavy Knight hugging the crossbow and crying of joy?

He pierces a hole in each bullet so it can grab them with the hook and load the flintlock.
