Soldat Enhanced (v2.1 update)

[Psycho]

Heh you should make soldat enhanced: Ultimate, where you use a program like mecha soldat uses.
Then you can just make different versions of the existing weapons and let us mix and match our own combination of them.

Please consider it as a future project

I'm a few steps ahead of you already... this is from a few months ago...

Thanks.. I won't be using "themes" as such (as in horror, sci-fi etc) what I will be doing is having different sets of weapons (rifles, shotguns, handguns, military) stuff like that and then when I feel I have amassed enough (or when I feel it's time to start modding link dead instead) I will make a huge mod out of them all, putting them together.

I'm still working on this... except its changed a little.... I realized that having stuff like pistol-only or shotgun-only weapon sets compromised on online compatibility because they relied on weapon.ini's so instead, I'm making default-compatible weapon sets only.... so just weapons that fit the ammunition counts and firing rate..

But yes I am going to make several different Enhanced mods and then pack them all together with some sort of configuring system.

At the moment obviously I'm working on Soldat Enhanced 2010, which is basically Soldat with all of the modern-equivalents or latest variants of each weapon...

For example...

Franchi SPAS-12 will be a Franchi LAW-12 (a much newer and mostly unheard of shotgun which is a much lighter and more tactical design and is the successor to the SPAS now that it's stopped being made)

And obviously Steyr AUG A1 will be a Steyr AUG A3

There isn't a modern replacement for Desert Eagles... so instead I am putting golden Desert Eagles in 

[Psycho]

I didnt mean mix and match so you can have all shotguns for every weapon. Just so you can replace the steyr AUG A1 with for instance the A3 and other steyr models ;P

This would do nothing with the .ini so it would be 100% online friendly. Thats what I ment.
Great that you are already planning to do it though.

Please re-read my post... I said I wasn't making shotgun/pistol only mods because of that exact reason.

[Psycho]

Yeah but I thought you said that because you thought that was what I was suggesting. No worries.

Hmm...I'm just not as impressed with this as everyone else seems to be.
But then again, I rarely ever like anyone's mods. I'm very picky.

I love how the weapons look, but everything else just isn't right for me, personally. The bullets are hard to see on some of the guns, which makes TW harder >_>
And the sounds...they're good quality for the most part, just way too quiet. I can barely hear them.
And the explosion is far too cartoony for my liking. I just couldn't play with this mod at all <:0

I'm not trying to offend you, and I really hope I didn't. These are all just my opinions, which I'm sure plenty of you will disagree with. I'm just trying to give some criticism.

Have you tried enabling bullet trails in your Soldat configuration settings?

the sounds...they're good quality for the most part, just way too quiet. I can barely hear them.

How odd... The sounds are actually louder than default Soldat sounds. They're pretty much optimized for stereo speakers/headphones. Do you have some kind of bizarre setup using like 8 speakers and a subwoofer?

And the explosion is far too cartoony for my liking.

The explosion uses transparency and has a tendency to blend with the previous layers in the animation... There's nothing I can do about this really... Soldat is very limited to work with.

Not offended at all, I like criticism

ETA/Release date on 2010?

[Mangled*]

When it's done really....

We're talking maybe 2 or 3 weeks maximum....

[Hair|Trigger]

SE 2010!!!!!! cant wait   looks my kinda thing, at last. 

[.Ryan.]

Just tried your mod, awesome work, that's really impressive and thanks for making this!

Soldat is fun again !

[El_Spec]

I don't see any real difference between the versions, besides the new M249.  I'll try this out later today. 

[BRADEN]

Any difference between SE1 and SE2 or SE2 and SE2010?

BTW El Spec you really have this annoying tendancy of just "looking" at screenshots. You even critisised my map in that way. You don't just see the difference (although there is a significant one) but you also hear it. SO please judge things when you have fully experienced them not after looking at a screenshot or two.

Any difference between SE1 and SE2 or SE2 and SE2010?

SE1: My first mod, some things weren't as perfect as I'd liked and I always intended to perfect it. And Soldat 1.4 was released only 1 or 2 weeks after it, the font changes kind of messed up the weapon menu and minor stuff like that.

SE2: Essentially a remake of SE1, but for Soldat 1.4 most parts from scratch. It's much more cleaner, introduces transparency in a lot of things. It basically just improves everything in SE.

SE2010: Imagine SE2 but with all the weapons updated to their most modern equivalents and models. The idea is it's Soldat set in the year 2010... For instance the FN Minimi will become the FN Mk.48 mod1 (which is currently in late prototype stages and being tested by some US military forces)

is it just me or it took a long time lol...2007...but ya its pretty cool I like it

SE 2010 screenshot:



Everything in that shot is finished. It should be done within a week or 2 at the most.

[Twistkill]

Sexy.

One thing that's bothering me, though. Is it just me or is the Franchi's bar-thingy (don't know the name) not in the correct position? Shouldn't it be at the front of the gun and be pulled back then to the front again to load a new shell? It looks odd being in the pulled back position...

[Mangled*]

That isn't a SPAS-12 though 



It's this without the buttstock. (it's detachable)

... oh.

[Mr Killer]

Make a Chey Tac M-200 as a sniper in 2010. It's like barret but more future-like weapon.
