[[MyIS]Spawndemon]

There is finally a new update posted today over at the Experience WWII (http://www.xww2.com/) mod website. They chime in with some new gun models for us all: The MG34 and M1928. Have a look:

[weikillz2]

[ikito]

[Mobdawwg]

pretty nice, keep up the good work and dont dissapoint us.;)

MG34 looks good. Good job on that. The skin's great.

The tommy, on the other hand, is definitely wrong - the model is incorrect.

Overall: It seems like you made the basic shape of the guns, but you just don't wanna do the extra work and put some time into them. ;)

1. Note how the end of the grip, the part above your thumb, does not touch the magazine.
2. Shape of the Buttstock, Grip, and Handle are all wrong. They are much more curved.
3. The spiral part on the barrel is wrong too. It's not as "fat" and it stretches out along the barrel.
4. Some parts need to be thinner, like the barrel.
5. The grip does not touch the barrel, yours does.
6. Your skin is missing the bolt in the buttstock.
7. Use more poly

p.s.: ^Constructive Criticism

Looks great guys, keep up the hard work.

Those models look great. Im sure any small details that can be changed, you have already thought of a million times while putting in the hard work.

Doublevee, that seems more like an assault more than a criticism IMO. Criticism would be something like " Nice work, but doesnt seem quite finished yet.

I am going to start giving overblown critiques about peoples posts. Since they take so little time to create compared to a skinned model, it shouldnt bother you too much.:cool:

[Symptomatik]

Nice update guys. Both guns look great, I love the MG34.

[Shadow Knight]

I could look into re-moddeling the Tommy 1928 of course, though I'll concentrate on new stuff first :) Thanks for the comments!

He gave suggestions on how to fix it, how is that an assault? I'd think an assault would be "OMG it sucks fix it now" or something. He said, "It doesn't look quite right but here's how to fix it..."

OMG it sucks fix it now isnt an assault, its a rude *** SOB!!

The post has been edited a little bit since I wrote mine. Not a big deal anyways, but I have my opinions as well. I just dont want Hard working Devs getting discouraged. Its tough to take such setailed critiques from someone who might not even make MODs themselves, but are an observer of them.

I dont know if Doublevee does this kind of work, never seen his stuff before. Most of these posts are taken from our Development sights behind the scenes.

Its very nice of Totalbf2 to display and help get the word out, but its not like we go asking them to post so people can tell us all the obvious things we have already thought of through countless hours of hardwork. Its a gift to the community, never look a gift horse in the mouth.

No biggy, Doublevee is correct, its all in the wording and politeness though.:cool:

;) nice work xww2 ! i'm impatient to see all of that on a beautifull map (:evil: xww2 had perhaps one of the best map,but we will try to do better :D )

ww2freak, you're irritating me to a point that Im really getting angry. YOU are the one here that starts the flamewars between FH and XWW2, or between FH and BG FL. I didn't ask for a pic of Fh's Mg34, I do know how it looks like. Try to skin or model something yourself and then show it to me.

If you don't stop with this immediatly, I won't rest 'till your IP banned from this site :p

With all respect, f^ck you:hi:

Good god, someone ban this @sshat.

[Shadow Knight]

what's the problem Syptomatik? I guess you haven't read ww2freak's other posts in our mod updates yet. Both xww2, frontlines and Battlegroup.

I think it looks great, great work SK. Sorry I missed the inaccuracies on the Thommy, but I just had a few renders from you and couldn't see it in 3ds which doesn't work. Oh well, keep working on the S******** :D - for next news post.
