Weapon models for each side.

[Stiivais]

I didnt see this in the DNSL, which is weird because someone should have suggested this already. Either way, here is my idea:

each side should have different weapon models and sounds, like 1smg.kv6 for green and 2smg.kv6 for blue. The changes are purely cosmetic (and audial because sounds should also be different), yet would help immersion greatly. Just imagine fighting with m4 when you hear a ak74 going off and you know that dirt is about to get heavy. This would mean a good distinction between the factions and should overall make the game better (awesome scenarios with thompsons and type100s for each faction). Your thoughts on this?

Edit: addzored a poll xD

I would say that this has been suggested multiple times, but since it isn't in the DNSL...

Would you please put up a poll? I'd vote yes in a heartbeat. Just hope Ben could handle creating new models himself.

In fact, why not make the community make a new vanilla set...

We wouldn't need new default models, simply keep the same look for both team's weapons with 2 files (semib and semig) which look exactly the same. Allow each team to have their own weapons do not implies the default models must be different.

A big +1, I also proposed the same about player skins : viewtopic.php?f=65&t=7393

Why not? It's my dream everyday.(yes, i daydreamed sbout it :D)

I would like this very much. With this and server side mods confirmed, we can finally have separate zombie skins for the zombie gamemode.

I like the idea for 2 reasons:

1. If audio changed too, it would stop be spinning round thinking an enemy is behind me when a team-mate shoots.
2. It could help people who like to use laser sights, but not want to see where the enemy is and feel like they are cheating.

I did not think about sounds but of course it should be duplicated too.

The best advantage would be for modding. This would greatly improve modding, ok having a Thompson is fine but if enemies have an MP40 instead of a Thompson, that's better.

That was the original idea xD

You should edit the poll so people could choose two choices (I want it for guns and player models)

[scarfacemperor]

Actually the first one is guns + skins, the second guns only. But I agree with you, it's not 100% obvious

Fixed. ^^

I don't see why not. Player models might be an issue without invoking any arguments on which side is good or bad.

[scarfacemperor]

Different player models, one for each team, would allow different uniforms - why not Aces vs Deuces ? - instead of only a color variation between teams.

1+ I love this idea.
