snowpilot 0 Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 I need to give a big pat on the back to Thumper for his 7.62mm mod. I was just recently able to download it, and was instantly impressed with his work. The textures on some of his models, namely his m21, m40, and HK sr9 are fantastic, and the realism of the mod is unparalleled. Like all mods though, a few of his inclusions didn't add anything to the game for me. This was the case with his m14's, xm25, and a few others, especially in the rifleman and demo catagories. It's nice to completely switch over to different weapons, but I try to keep my arsenal at least close to what Spec Ops has available today, at least from what I've found. I do have a question for Thumper tho: What in the name of God is that M1? It looks like a modified M14, but if I'm completely off my rocker here, please explain what it is. Keep up the good work Oh, I almost forgot... Like i said, i try to keep my arsenals fairly close to what spec ops uses. That means leaving the M16's and M4's, as well as the other default weapons in the game. I would like to ask modders to please come up with original kit names, not just rifleman1, demo2, etc. It overwrites the game defaults, and unless this is intended, like in some of the foreign army mods like IDF and ADF, it's a pain to go in and rename all the kits so they don't clash.

Thumper1518 62 Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 @snowpilot: which M1 do you mean? They are M1a's. I have a few in the mod. Some come with the KAC R.A.S. some come with a McMillan tactical stock (check their website, it's the one made for the M1a), and others with various modifications. I have made some new ones for version 2.0, based on the regular M1a, including the new SOCOM version and the Scout version, based on requests from GR.net folks. Check Springfield Armory's website for info on the M1a. The M14 was derived from the M1-series, not the other way around. The M1a is the evolution of the M1 Garand in a semi-auto version. The M14 was the full-auto military version of the weapon. If you want to find out more, check Battlerifles.com and read in their forums, as there are many opinions on the subject. My intent was to make a mod with many versions of 7.62mm weapons and make it so all the standard operatives use them, as it is a better round IMHO. I am also including an M14 based on the DMR-type weapons I have been seeing in pics from the sandy, angry places. I know there is only a small difference between the M21 and the XM25 (AKA Hathcock Model), but some folks have their favorites, so I tried to accomodate them. The XM25 was included based on a direct request from another person. Ask Suicide Commando about who's responsible for the un-SD Troy SOPMOD's coming in v2.0 I'm glad you enjoyed most of my work, it was made for you and others like you who enjoy GR still.
