Not only including those two, of course.

WEE!! Awesome idea!:

MM added a start app that can run mods so why can't he include few little mods to Soldat? (exactili with author premission - it won't be hard to get 'cause it would be a great fame for author)

That could be okay I guess, but the default one should still be upgraded.

You can change the weapon names in the txt folder ..

This isn't about customization, it's about the DEFAULT look.

Don't get me wrong, psycho, your weapons really do look good. But the problem with you modders is that you always make your weapons.gfx so damn detailed, and when it's placed on your soldat ingame, it just looks stupid. Let's face it, soldat's not a very detailed game when it comes to graphics, so adding something like that makes it, well, almost contrasts.

The default weapons as they are looks amazing ingame, because they're on the same 'level of detail' as the soldat is.. You get me?

They are not my weapons. Its pics I took as an example from Mangled's Soldat enhanced.

I disagree on it being on the same level as soldat is. I think we can beef up the looks on the weapons by alot, and still not loose any soldat feeling at all.

The thing is with the original soldat defauts is that all the weapons look so plastic-ish. I would make SE soldat default. (and the knife is too big)

If soldat needs a remake i vote for

 PNG Mod by. PaFel <- Why not! Its better, and with the real soldat graphics

Or if we need new weapons
 
  Tactical Soldat

Wow.. wasn't expecting this..

Overall, I think Soldats defaults should be left how they are, lots of people have different tastes and the beauty of mods is that you can pick which ones you want. The default images are generic and plain enough to give it that all-round evenness.

Soldat is MM's game... and I think if the graphics were to change, it'd only be right that they were ones that he'd made. I honestly don't see them changing.

Besides... it's nice after playing mods for a few months, to go back to the originals for that nice sense of nostalgia.

You dont see them changing because its been here for so long. Its the same with everything.
If michal want to have his own weapons only to be default, I think he could make another attempt at improving them himself.

The default weps now, are more boring than all-round.
Mods can be fun and better than default. It would be the same if we improved the default ones.
I am saying this for the new people that will have an improved impression of soldat, before they even know that such things as mods exist.

Also it would be a sign that soldat is truly being upgraded, and becoming newer and better.

As a matter of fact, since its a 2D game with such easy ways to make nice weapons, it strikes me why this havent been done already.

Yes, I agree with that.

I disagree! :P
I like Soldat weapons the way they are. The only thing this game needs is updating the main menu and default interface. Nothing else!

Well if they WERE updated, you could still use the default steyr if you want.

I disagree too.
First the gosteks, then the bullets and their trails... now what? If you want to use a mod, just use the mod.
I like the "oldish" Soldat feeling better.

Then this is the same now. If you don't like default weapons, use modifications.
Or...how about multiple weapon sets like interfaces?

Nawww

I think the default weapons are good.  Plus, if we put some uber-1337 mod as the default, there wont be such a thing as modding anymore, cause modders wont be able to make anything better.

I agree with Tiger, we need the menus changed, they're really bland...
