H&D Deluxe, the ultimate mod: Guns

[p.jakub88]

I also updated the Boys AT-rifle aim model. See picture below.

Like in the case of FG-42 i cannot properly align the rear and front sight without the buttstock getting into the view, so to aim the Boys now you need to point the front sight towards your target. Still, it is better than the previous side view aim in my opinion.

Below i attached also the updated Boys AT-rifle aim view for anyone who is interested to check it in-game with the H&D Deluxe Ultimate 2.1 Mod installed.

After some adjustments i managed to update my custom Bren, ZB-26 and MG-34 aim models with iron sights view. See pictures below.

I finally figured out how to remove the buttstock from the aim model (and other unnecessary parts) in order to have a clear sight picture. I found out, that the H&D developers did the same with their default weapons.

I updated also my custom Browning M1919A6 machine-gun with iron sights view. See picture below.

I think, that i now finally figured out why some of my custom weapon models had the visuals set with different Uniform Scale values - after being imported into HDD editor (resulting in models being improperly aligned and scaled). Quote from the HDD editor manual: "Do not use non-uniform scale in MAX. The non-uniform scale is evil and not supported by the Editor. Thus, when this is encountered, it is converted into uniform scale, without actually changing the shape of such an object, but this conversion will affect position and scale of linked objects, so use uniform scale whenever possible. If you must use NU scale, use Max’ Reset Xform".

So i applied this Reset XForm utility in 3ds Max and the model look normal, despite using non-uniform scale on it.

EDIT: Meanwhile i also made new iron sights view for my custom DP-28 and Breda 30 light machine-guns.

Based on the default Sten aim model for size reference i made iron sights view for both of my custom Sten submachine-guns (standard and silenced).

See pictures below.

Based on the default MP40 aim model for size reference i made iron sights view for my custom MP40, Thompson and MAB-38 submachine-guns.

See pictures below.

Next weapon aim model that i updated is the Lanchester submachine-gun.

See picture below.

The final submachine-guns from the mod that i updated with iron sights view are M3 Grease gun, PPSH-41 and PPS-43.

See pictures below.

Below i attached all the new iron sights view models of the submachine-guns from my mod. I also converted the textures of M3 Grease Gun and PPS-43 from BMP to PNG format, because i had some display problems with them in 1st person view on my PC. Better be safe than sorry as they say.

I plan to eventually update the H&D Deluxe Ultimate Mod shared on my ModDB account with all those new iron sights views for custom weapons. I am going to vacation soon, so this might be delayed a bit.

That's quality

That's quality

Thanks!

Speaking of quality, meanwhile i imported better looking models of Delisle, M3 Grease gun and PPS-43 guns into HDD Editor. Those models are part of the COD2 Back2Fronts 1.0 (a Call of Duty 2 mod). I will try to make them usable in H&D Deluxe and replace their previous versions. Work in progress.

See pictures below.

Hmm I remember that you had a vanilla looking sten gun silenced I wish you could bring it back (it was so damn good looking and it's nostalgic)

Other than that I really wanna see what you can do with what you have vs what you can make like that old sten gun silenced vanilla concept

It's still quite the quality non the less and I would wish that you start making add-ons for your MOD as an exclusive final touch (dlc or a exclusive to MOD only) it is what gonna make a great thing for the MOD

Keep Up the good work

I managed to make the new Delisle model usable in H&D Deluxe. There are available now: new inventory icon, in-game and aim models.

See pictures below.

Below i attached all the necessary files related to the new Delisle model that i presented in my previous post. Unpack each RAR archive into your root H&D Deluxe directory. Replace files when asked.

Enjoy!

really cool, Jakub- you are a professional modder :)

What do you think about adding some modern guns? I would like to create a gulf war addon some day.
