9mm Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 Works fine for me. Textures are back during a mission wit SR47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 9mm - you had the major problems where they totally disappeared right? Glad its working for you. I want to hear back from everyone who tries it - nothing worse than releasing a useless patch ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 I have had success with the patch as well Earl. Excellent mod you have made. I am curious as to what the complete version will include however. I looked through the forum and your website and did not see anything on what will be in the finished product. Again excellent and astpoudning job Earl. IMHO one of the best out there. It keeps the original balance only with superb models. Excellent Job.

9mm Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 Yep, rather useful patch for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 It keeps the original balance only with superb models Thanks Ghost! That's exactly my goal. I'll probably rework the upgrade website so it makes more sense - isolate the Part One weapons on a new page and start another for Part two. The idea is to eventually replace ALL original weapons (enemy weapon included) with my own models - there probably won't be many changes or additions, except for a few new optics on the Russian weapons to keep things balanced for NATO vs Warsaw Pact. Glad to hear the patch is running well for everyone so far! I'll make it official tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTF-2 Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 thanks Earl. that fixed it. the patch worked for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 The idea is to eventually replace ALL original weapons Excellent. I look forward to the completion of the MOD. Espically seeing a good MP5 and SA80. Good Luck with your endeavours. Ghost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tollen Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 (edited) It would be good with a SA80 that you can differ in length from the M16 and that looks fat as a machinegun. Earl, whats you plan MP5A3´s or A2´s? Edited February 6, 2003 by Tollen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 You know, I never payed any attention to NATO weapons until I started this project. So far, all I know is from the weapons I've worked on. I have no idea which MP5 I'm going to make - I'll start researching it when I get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRC Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Nice job on the patch Earl. No problems at all since I put it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mast Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Patch works great Earl! Big Thank You!! Also glad to see your going to work on all the GR weapons. A lot of them look cheesy. Mast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Slink Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 I agree that this is an excellent idea with great skill to back it up. There's nothing 'Standard' about these weapons. They look better than the original ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 I think my reason for choosing the title is to make is sound like an unofficial patch for the game itself rather than a mod - like a standard upgrade for all installations of GR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tollen Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 It´s nice playing with words... One wrong word touching any stuff even remotly connected to GR or UBI and you end up i jail... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Slink Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 you end up i jail... Only if they catch you I love these models though. Someone should make a poll on how many people think they're better than the originals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suicide Commando Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 Not sure if Earl minds me sharing this but he posted these pics on the forums of the Op. Flash. mod he's contributing weapons to. I hope he won't yell at me too much. And I quote, "And I'm definitely a fan of making worn textures - here's a painting I was playing around with while I was on Christmas holidays (didn't even have my Wacom tablet) " Hopefully we'll see weapons like that in the hands of the GR baddies and in MP.

Sgt. Slaughter Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 I love these models though. Someone should make a poll on how many people think they're better than the originals. No contest imo! Earl wins hands down over the originals. A vast improvement really, upgrade is a major understatement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 Yeh, no kidding – Earl's win, no contest OMG, that AK-74 is insane! You should so MP-5A4 and MP-5SD5 versions (they are the ones with fixed stocks and 3 round bursts), and definitely like an Aimpoint scope or something. Just wondering, how does your sight for the M-203 work, I have never seen anything like that before but it looks like a marked improvement over the standard leaf sight. How do you use it? What does the sight picture look like? CLARK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 The leaf sight is for close range firing - that's basically all you ever do in GR. The unit I attached to the M203 is a quadrant sight. The regular issue quadrant sight is usually attached to the carrying handle - RSE put it on their M16s. It help you calculate the landing point of a lobbed grenade - so lets say you range a target at 200m, you rotate the sight to the 200m setting, then look down the sights at the target (you rifle will be pointing upwards). The one I put on the guns is from Knight's Armament. It does the same thing, but instead of iron sights, it has a mini reflex sight. The mounting location means you don't need a carrying handle, so you can attach other optics like I've done. SF sometimes use a laser for the M203, from Wilcox Industries. I was going to put this on Buzz Gordon's M16A4/M203, but it still has the carrying handle attachment, and I didn't have time for all that.

JTF-2 Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 what weaps were you planning on putting in the second part? any date? (i know i'm being a bit cheeky, but i just don't have enough patience ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Slink Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 That 'worn texture' gun looks spiffy. Can't wait for part two. *nudge, nudge* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9mm Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 (edited) Earl, do you intend to remove those AK47s from Russian soldiers, or you don't plan to mess with enemy loadouts? Edited February 10, 2003 by 9mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfa FSB Posted February 10, 2003 Share Posted February 10, 2003 Earl, do you intend to remove those AK47s from Russian soldiers, or you don't plan to mess with enemy loadouts? I will adapt my mod "General Enemy Realism mod" for Standard Upgrade . I already done it for standard upgrade part v1.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
