FG42
Posted: Sun Mar 28, 2004 1:52 am
is there a patch or way to fix the fg42's position so that when the player holds it it isn't at his feet instead of his hands? i've never seen one before and want to incorperate it into a level.

Not really sure what your problem is. You don't need a patch for that... just place the gun in the right height when you are mapping it...

okay, the fg42 is under playerweapon>german>fg42. it's only in SH, and i've never seen it before, and i think i know why.
they must not have finished it or something, it's actual picture-like thing (like you can see a walther when you choose it, or a mosin-nagant when you choose to hold it...) is at the player's feet.
it functions exactly as a g43, but it's steel colored and looks more modern. it's skinned and all, but it's at your feet doing everything it ought to be (reload anims, for instance, work fine)
i want to use it in a level, but i only need to get it up four-five feet to the player's hands.
another thing i understand about it is that it has no bullet indication. there's no five bullet display like for other rifles, and it only shows it's name in the bottom right corner, not rifle ammo.
i want to give it to AI as a secret gun and make them super-accurate with it so it seems to be an ultimate gun. kind of like the stg44 was in m6.

okay, maybe i'm confusing people, the FG42 is a german weapon i believe was discontinued early in production for some reason, perhaps because they thought it would give the Germans too much sniping power.
i want to recontinue it. it has the skin, model, firing mechanism, sniper scope, and everything it needs but the bullet display and total ammo display. in addition to the fact that when it's the active weapon it's at the player's feet, not his hands.
i know you can re-skin and sound a gun, and make totally new ones from scratch, all i'm asking is for a way to finish this weapon so i can give it as a treat to germans in my sp maps.

It was mainly used by paratroopers; of which Germany had a diminishing use for.lizardkid wrote:i believe was discontinued early in production for some reason,

thanx Angex.
i think i found what i need. Klaus posted not too long ago, so my first search would have missed him. he talks about custom weapons and the fg42 at the scripting forum.
