AndrewTF Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 I got tired of watching my Commonwealth guys use Browning M1917s, so I put together a proper Vickers machine gun. Two of them, actually, both included in a single ZIP at the CM Mod Database. I tried to make something that would work well with Juju's awe-inspiring small arms mods. It's completely from scratch, too. Curiously enough, there is a Vickers MG BMP included with the game, 1934.bmp, so I'm not sure why BFC decided to have it and the M1917 share textures. It may have something to do with the hard-coded tripod graphic not lining up properly, but I find that less distracting than looking at the wrong weapon. Make sure you back up your 1943.bmp so you can swap it back when you play Americans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenAsJade Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Luverly guns! Could you artisitically "bend" the mount, so that it does kinda line up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike8g Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 One suggestion: Include BMP# 1901 and replace the upper two rows with pink color. This gives a matching topside graphics. Marcus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juju Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Stunning, Andrew. Couple more like that and I'll give up modding small arms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought about it but then I'd have to alter the proportions of the gun and that would cause more trouble so I left it alone. Hopefully this is something BFC will fix in the next patch. Since they included a Vickers BMP with the game I assume that they intended to use it at some point . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
