US weapons: M1918A2 BAR (update) image - Hi-Res Realism Texture mod for Medal of Honor: Allied Assault
This mod aims to replace or improve textures in game with new high resolution work while retaining the original feeling and color palette of the game. Characters in game will be given much higher variety of uniforms, equipment and decals which will allow for much deeper experience for those who want to revisit the game or play it for the first time after long time. The textures are redone using original ones as base whenever possible (most are still nice and have at least basic realism) to retain original design, but all textures are upscaled to twice (or more) of original resolution, sharpened, and have decals either redrawn, or replaced with as much reverence to realism as possible. In effect the skins are extra realistic, but also don't look out of place - everything is done as to not ruin the original scene background and color palette that has been developed specially for SPR and MoHAA.
While trying to fix some parts of vanilla BAR texture it turned out it might be easier to create a new texture from scratch, which was made possible thanks to new resources.
The BAR now has all-new look with all parts replaced. Receiver now has proper look of high quality blued finish for which these guns were famous for, with some wear visible on edges of the metal blocks, but little to no scratches on flat areas. Various missing decals were added back, such as fire selector, safety, and lever for field stripping the weapon; and details of sight assembly together with ladder sight. On the front of receiver there's also stamped out text of patent for "Browning Automatic Rifle" with serial number - as was the practice for US manufacturers of firearms in WWII.
That is the last of US weapons to be done, and last of german weapons, the Kar98k, is now almost finished. So you will have chance to check them out in person very soon :) take care!
The bottom-left square, I took another look at it and that bug only happens in-game. In LR3D everything looks fine, even when changing the light source.
Yeah the bottom-left is like "without light" state (esp mag) and there isn't any discoloring, while the one on the right has shadow like it's cut in half (while actually it's in the sun, no shadow should be there at all). Well, at least it's not that much visible in movement and in first person.
looks great!
