holdable_sword? #102

I realize how this would be a pain to make, but could you you make a 
holdable/weapon_sword?  pretty self-explanatory.  a sword weapon that is swung 
to inflict damage an a enemy.  I've done character modelling so I know that 
there is no animation for a sword swing in the model files...perhaps only the 
sword would move?  I am making a map in which the player goes thru a crazy, 
out-of-control factory, there are some buttons that are supposed to be 
unreachable but can be shot from a distance. and invisible walls are out of the 
question.  also, the player must get very close to an enemy to hurt them with 
the gauntlet...

I'm sorry but I don't think this will happen any time soon. There's still a ton 
of other things to do and if anything, we would need someone to make a good md3 
of a sword and a skin.

In my opinion, a feature like this is way OOS (out of scope) for the 
expectations of this mod.  Also, I find it somewhat hilarious the idea to be 
able to hold a sword and wield it, in Quake!  lol.

In my imagination, I would see that is being another type of "add-on" that you 
could run on regular q3, or in a q3 mod such as EP.  I would see it being a 
replacement for the Gauntlet weapon.
