Yes, its the Aliens weapon. As the other weapon I had was the HL2 Beta OICW, and the one before that was from Dissolution. (used with permission)

I dont have time to pick up XSI or some other modelling software and learn how to make my own weapons since I do all the level design, textue art, NPC compiling, prop modelling and compiling, music, sound effects, mapping, coding and scripting myself.

you simply can't do everything! you already are doing so much yourself. i know this weapon and its animations, and should you use it then maybe you can change some of the animations because when you don't shoot then it turns from time to time up and sideways, and then blocks a lot of the screen, (when this is in fact that weapon and animation that i know). also is the counter on the side not working, it keeps saying 99, maybe that will be changed then too?
again, if this is that exact weapon that i already know. other then that, good choice. thought of using it myself in my latest Hl2 ep2 sp-mod, but decided to not do so because it doesn't fit to well in my own mod.

keep up the great work!!

Thats the ons Spy-maps!

Im going to change the counter to show a little of the blue plasme energy it fires and make it an animated texture to add a bit of 'pop' to it. Evilwevil offered to do animations for this Mod, including some new ones for this weapon. I think it will be fine to use if its highly customized just for NovaCor though.

It might not even make it to release though - A modeller here on Moddb offered to help out and do the weapon models, so if he pulls through then I wont use this. If this does get customized for NovaCor, I really like it and will keep it in.Ill name him when he gets the fisrt model done of course, but I dont want to go spreading names around just yet :)

I'm making sure I'm going to customize the model heavily, Maybe add a rail and a red dot sight. I'm thinking of changing the pump grenade launcher to an ar2 pulse ball launcher. The new animations are turning out really well imo. Even made some sprint animations for if you end up coding animations while sprinting. I'm also going to reduce the clip size to 50 (if that's alright with you of course). Sounds will also not be from Aliens. When its completed it should be its own gun and not the m41a pulse rifle from Aliens. :)

Awesome :) The pulse ball launcher would be perfect because I was going to make it launch a 'pulse blast' instead of a normal 'nade. Sounds like we are thinking along the same lines :)

Since this is getting a toal makeover, Im keeping it in. I like it too damn much anyway. Ill start working on the ammo counter, changing it into a small window to see the blue plasma inside, animated of course!

Lots of people worked on this, and they are all named in the screenshot :) I did have to compile a world model for it though. Im also still working on tracking down the others who worked on it, but the original modeller has had absolutely zero activity on GB so I dunno what to do there.

It could be immersion breaker.
Or your corporation named Weyland-Yutani? :)

Lol :)

I dont really think its any more of an immersion-breaker than using the OICW (which is actally still in - this replaces the SMG) or any other weapon we've all already seen on Game Bananna or somewhere else.

As I said earlier, someone offered to help out with this Mod so there wont be a mishmash of weapons from GB. I do happen to like this weapon a lot and I think its just fine...after all, it looks like a few weapons from Mass Effect and some from Borderlands too.

Fits nicely...
To all the people complaining:
There are only a very few mods made by one person that get this far. Doing ALL the stuff by yourself is just too much in most cases. Besides that, he has been given the permission by the original creator, so everything's good. ;)

Description

Here is a newly acquired Pulse Rifle. USed with permission, of course. I reskinned it (still have a couple small pieces to do) and compiled the world model myself though. All credits are given in the picture, and this, when included in the next news post, will be credited to all who had their part in the weapon's creation.

Ive also had an offer for more custom weapons by a Moddb member who will be named when the time comes. Evilwevil, who did the animations on this rifle, has also offered to help out with animations and a few other things - so expect some really cool updates in the future!
