Weapon view alignment still not quite right

[jdolan]

The weapon view.cfgs could still using some work. I hate to harp on this, but they're just not consistent.

[kaadmy]

Which ones stand out the most here?

[jdolan]

give all and then cycle through them. They're all over the place.

Btw @Panjoo @Arseflute, I added a few new cvars that should really help with object scale and origin:

cg_entity_bob 0
cg_entity_pulse 0
cg_entity_rotate 0

Will yield completely stationary pickup items.

cg_bob 0

Will disable your own view bobbing, so you can really see these things and examine them up-close.

Hope this helps with nailing down our item origins and scales!

thats going to be awesome to be honest ;)

[jdolan]

There's a new map available, called sandbox. It includes all items / weapons / flags. You can use it with the above cvars to see exactly how our weapons stack up.

[kaadmy]

Eh, I'll try to take this one on quickly to try to line the first-person models up a bit.

[kaadmy]

Made a few more changes to kaadmy/model_tweaks, take 'em out for a test run and tell me how they are now.

[jdolan]

Nice. Pretty good. I'm going to continue to nitpick :P Some of these will require editing the models..

• [ ] Blaster large in both 1st and 3rd person view. It should be smaller than the other guns.
• [ ] Shotgun sits a little high 1st person. Also slightly large. Should be smaller than RL.
• [ ] Super shotgun is too fat / chunky 1st person (it's bigger than RL)
• [ ] GL a smidgen low 1st person
• [ ] RG and BFG maybe too large 1st person?

More feedback in this screenshot of sandbox.

[kaadmy]

I purposely made the BFG huge in first-person, otherwise there isn't much similar on it to Big Fucking Gun. GL is also low in first-person, otherwise it filled a lot of the view since it's really wide, it looked to powerful compared to the other weapons. I made HB a little smaller since it looked larger than RL in third person, didn't quite fit well. SSG should be larger first-person than the SG, IMHO this is already good but maybe slightly large.

I pushed some changes to your branch, which included re-adding world.cfg's to "fix" a bunch of the weapons. Here are some screenshots I took with cg_entity_bob 0, cg_entity_rotate 0:

Before:

After:

If you want to re-export the models, applying their respective world.cfgs, that'd be great. Then the view.cfg and link.cfg's should all be mostly uniform.

[jdolan]

@kaadmy Did you want to re-export the weapons, or just go with my modified world.cfg's?

[kaadmy]

I can reexport them so they're uniform, it shouldn't be much trouble.

[jdolan]

👍

[kaadmy]

With @Panjoo's current tweaks in master, is this finished now or does it need more polishing still?

[jdolan]

Sure.
