Veritable name's Maria. I doubtlessly can call myself a person literally demented on a solid science-fiction (Greg Egan, Liu Cixin), literature of modernism (Cormac McCarthy, Shusaku Endo), dramatic multilayered motion pictures (Ingmar Bergman's substantially) and motorbiking (i currently ride cheap & scabrous red Honda CB125E, whilst dreaming of Kawasaki Zephyr 1100). Firearms is my other pervasive passion. I reckon myself as a member of transhumanist movement, and feel cognated with a marginal (non-academic) rame of philosophy (such as Nietzsche's / Zizek's works).

Wow, that's the best thing i could hear on RTTN+TAZ cooperation! I'm just insanely happy you do plan to integrate all the arsenal into RTTN platform eventually. Thank you so much once again! I've been keeping my eyes on both project for about two years already, but couldn't even hope for such luck! Keep it up, my friend!

Sounds just great! Sadly, current TAZ portation on RTTN does not contain *all* the weapons from TAZ 2.0. I so hope that will be changed soonly! As i were saying, this is an absolutely the BEST weapon pack of whole trilogy. No kidding.
And hey. I have never supported your team financely, and that's about time to do so. If you are going to move in that direction, know, that i'll be the one who will drop you some cash on that possible future project.

Fkn sorry to hear that. Thanks for the info tho.
Can i PM you to point which shooters i'd like to see in the next update? There's not that many of them actually. Mostly pistols [yeah i know] - VP70, VBR PDW, Sword Cutlass. Ah, and AR-18 retro rifle.
Hope that suggestion won't bother team and personally you that much. Hell, i can even drop some funds in your virtual wallet [just keep in mind my name's Maria and not Molly Million$, hehe]. Not a big deal.
And yea, i just love your work that much. But what i also like is to shoot pistols and spin 'em on my finger while chewing bubble gum.

My beloved TAZ team! I am writing you just to say, that i currently enjoy RTTN merged with TAZ, and that pleasure just goes on and on.
You've created an absolutely best weapon pack available, and provided superb support while working on it. You guys are my winged seraphims. Thank you so fkn much.

Does anybody know where 'Sword Cutlass' Beretta can be found? Normally, TAZ offers it through Nimble assortment. But not this time.

P.S.

1: Sorry for spamming, i'm just in love with that pistol, and TAZ team added it because i have asked.

2: Is there a spawn menu available? Cheating is bad, i just want to check all the shooters, animations, etc.

Thanks for understanding.

RTTN team is such a nice guys. I sincerely wish you all the best. What a wonderful support! If some of people here ever had experience with *some* russian modmakers, you most likely cherish such things even more.

Thank you so much for your answer! So, as far as i can get, TAZ weapons hadn't been added into NPC level list? That's kinda odd, since you actually *can* buy weapons from the pack after some - how should i call it? - progress. I can have a 'Tide' VSS from Nimble right now, but cannot get my hands of desirable, low-tier TAZ pistol (H&K VP70). Feels awkward.

>> If you guys really want to have a different trade system , ill see what i can do

Thanks for proposal! Guess it would be a nice option.

May i ask, what does mean that 'higher goodwill level'? I'm currently have 'experienced' rank, and do every possible trader missions (Great Swamp Trader / Sidorovich). Still no any gun from TAZ available, even the low tier ones. Are you sure that's not a bug?

P.S. May i ask, where is TAZ 'icon equipment' file located?

Sorry for bombarding you with questions, Seda. But your work is so great i want to get a full kick from it.

Thank you! May i ask just one more question ahead?
Where can i find any of TAZ weapons? I'm at Cordon already (started as a Clear Sky member at the Great Swamp), and saw not a single TAZ firearm, though new ammo for the can be looted / bought from traders.

I like TAZ exactly that way. Since the day i fell in love with tactical stuff like Brigade E5 / 7.62 High Calibre, etc. Please, don't take away pleasure of such variety from people by writing such stuff. If you don't like *that* amount of weaponry - fine, just stick to the guns you prefer in your playthrough. TAZ contain large amount of weaponry i never saw in any other FPS (like my favourite Armalite AR-18 and many more). I'm not saying 'shove your opininion up your arse', it's more like 'please. Just don't'. Thanks.

Because it is better when you have a chance to ignore something by not picking up. And not biting your elbows due to lack of something you'd like to see. 'Счастья для всех, даром, и пусть никто не уйдёт обиженным'. Как-то так.

Thanks, lad ;) I would prefer RSD 'Gezel' in oxblood right now [something to fit my red 'She-B*tch' beaten-up Honda], but thanks anyway.
Then again, with MG3 in my hands, robbing a shop would be a peace of cake. Heheh.

I hate to break it out to you, but that is actually MG 42, not MG3. Why's that? Heck, get yourself a glass of brandy, while my explanation is flowing.

Main difference between old and modernized versions is a calibre, but let's talk about visual differences, which is much harder to notice.

Newer versions has polymer buttstock and handle [MG3] instead of wooden ones on WWII [MG 42] version. TAZ version seem to have wooden stock, which can be thought of as MG 42 trademark. That's not a panacea, though.

Now about panacea.
Main visual difference, however, is a barrel extension. I've made a comparsion picture for you to look at it.

Once again, the main difference is the change in caliber from 7.9mm to 7.62mm. That does not make any sense in the videogame, since modders can easily took an MG 42 model and call it 'MG3', thinking it's right just because they've changed an in-game calibre of the weapon. Which is technically not correct, and does not turn machine gun in its newer version. Sadly - 'cause i really prefer MG3 [or CETME AMELI] over old fart 42.
