The helmets and the kar98 need some work, but damn the sounds are looking uber hot. Love the reloading of the kar and the distant sounds.

So far so great.

[Ginger Lord]

What would you improve on them then?

[mooesmoo]

THe helmet textures looks to flat.

And about the k98 it looks very clean, try making it a little bit rusty and old.

Those are the two main things i would fix.

This man knows his stuff. For the sake of the mod, you should listen to him.

Some HD pics of the k98. Would look hot if you do the wood a lil more older and the metal with a little of rust effect.

Comment all you like, the feedback is always welcome.

On thing though about the "rusty and old" comment - it's one of those phrases I hate along with "war torn". While weapons got the odd dent and scratch don't forget that in the 1940's when HaJ is set most of these weapons would of been pretty new and well maintained and not have 60+ years of dust, rust and scratches on them.

Ok, i might not used the correct words. I kinda mean what u say,scratches and things that made it look like if it was at war.I just see them to clean.
I know they must not look with that war effect.What i mean is that even when they just came out of production,they had to suffer from weather problems like rain,also mud,and scratches.
Maybe all it needs is some scratches.

Hi there guys
I almost forgot about this mod :] a while ago i was browsing my "favorites" and found a link and thought : oh, Ham and Jam, this was this HL2 WWII mod in production with Jed in the team , oh this mod is probably dead by now. -click - Oh, that's a surprise! they're alive ! and still kickin! so That's how i got here again.Now my concern is the small detail on this picture aith BREN
Do I see a polish flag there? so are you making a map for 2nd Polish Corps in Itay or 1 st Polish Armored Division of gen. Maczek in Normandy (Falaise)?
Cheers!! (omg this engine looks so old , guys move on so many new great engines to choose from

But seriously , it's so good to see you still at work
