I've been wondering this since I started playing 7.0. Why does the shotgun have a laser that sticks a foot out the front and stops? If there isn't an actual laser implemented in the game why not remove it from the model? Would it be possible to make one as simply a line radiating from the gun and ending at any surface it touches; sortofthingish maybe in a sense of the rail-tail or lightning gun??

Anybody?

The q3a super shotgun model also has a short laser sight. I suspect OA's shotgun modeler just liked that feature and included it in their version.

Now that you mention it, that does seem a bit off. I never noticed it. I think my eye was drawn to the banana clip. Smiley

On the roadmap, the shotgun is one of the weapons listed for remodeling. Any ideas for improved version? That revolver of your's was pretty cool.

asking when OA3 will be done won't get OA3 done.
Progress of OA3 currently occurs behind closed doors alone

I do not provide technical support either.

not needed - just add a flag that pops out with a colourful "BANG" written all over it

I was going to use my pistol model as a personal replacement for the shotgun but I had problems with blender, and my total lack of blender experience made me put it on indefinite hold

One second thought, I'm not sure it's a laser sight at all. This shotgun kicks ass!!!



All it needs now is some gold plating...

I always thought the shotgun was the best weapon model, and am not sure why it is up for replacement.
