If I'm correct, It doesn't really look like an OICW....
which doesn't matter, it looks pretty damn good.

I have to agree with Rhombus. The OICW doesnt look like OICW ...lol
But I love the stat gun...

I don't mind when this happens, but other modders will tell you this: Only use absolute black on the outline of the gun in the interface-gfx.

Looks great, although I wish you supplied a weapons.ini :(

Thanks for the comments, yea i know it doesnt look a whole lot like the real oicw. o well, maybe i will improve on it.

what is the purpose of making the outline full black? and what is the weapons.ini? im new to this.

1. If you look at the default guns, you'll notice that black is barely used on them, except for the outline of the interface guns. Everywhere else, there's virtually no absolute black.

2. Weapons.ini is a file located in the Soldat directory. It contained the damage values of each gun, the firing rate, ammo clip size, et cetera. Make a copy of that and name it OICW_mod.ini (no spaces are allowed). Mod the new .ini file to your likings, then start up a game in Soldat (do not join a game, start one). While playing, type in /loadwep OICW_mod and press enter. Then, type in /kill and press enter. This will bring up the weapon menu. Choose the OICW, and it should be modded.

NOTE: Using decimal values in the .ini files messes up Soldat.

thanks i will keep all that in mind for future mods. although, i doubt i will be able to use black only on the outline, i shall try!

Instead of using black, try using RGB(48,48,48,).

hmm, the shading is great, but the detail is lacking...

Final Opinion:
nice :)

yamo, don't improve this.
It may not look like an OICW, but it looks great.
If you really want an OICW, improve it... but keep this one as it is, and let us download this imaginary weapon :) It's really good. I'm looking forward to a full mod, made by you.

'tis a very nice weapon, even if there's no abs-black

yea if i improve i will keep this version. hmm full mod? haha might be awhile until i release one of those. hardest part is coming up with an original idea X_x.

abs-black?

Doesn't really look like an OICW...

Anyway, the government scrapped the OICW project because it was way too heavy for an infantry weapon (I think upwards of 21 pounds), which is why there is development of the XM8.

Which is completely unnessecary and overbudgeted. It's just not worth it, America's attempt to standardize a new military weapon as well as an accessory mounting system. I think the hk-416 conversion is amuch more viable option there.

Oh, and this mod is nice. Nothing like an OICW, but still nice.

they scrapped it...i guess the article I read was out of date >_<. to bad, it seemed like a real nice weapon. and thanks for the comments.

Hey yamo. I like this style. U should make a complete set of weapons of this style. Nice going there pal. Keep it up!

Ussocom is looking nice...

I love this style too. A full mod would be orgasmic...

Damn... yamo, you're a keeper!

I think that picp is way too big. Try to make it smaller

yea, i knew someone would say its to big xD. I will see what i can do to make it a little smaller. thanks for the comments.

Ehm... how did I help you with the sounds? I remember being drunk last night... but... I didn't help... did I?

you dont remember helping last night? hmm well you were very drunk. lol na, on solatmods.tk the DE .50 mod is by someone named "Rhombus" (i asume you are the same person) i used the sounds in that mod. if thats not ok i will remove them.


oh and would anyone be interested if i released a blood mod (tons more blood X_x)? you can see how it looks in my avatar (minus the blue explosion). although that was my earlier version, now the blood is a little darker.

I've never ever liked mods, but your title and weapons pulled my attention to this thread... nice mod!

heh... you just took my sound... naughty boy!!!!

nah, I don't care... I just took it of the internet and edited it a little too ^^
At least somebody knows and appreciates my work ^^
Thank you :)

PS ys that is me

Hmm. I gotta ask. Did u draw those by fair hand. I mean u didnt shrunk them and make outlines and then re-shading?

Lol.. it doesn't have the shape of an OICW... how the heck could you think he shrunk them XD

yea i drew them. outlines, coloring, shading. pixel art is easy xD

I was beeing sarcastic. :D It was obvios. But i still like them. I like them alot. Are you planning to do a full modification?

mayonaise even finds it easy... omg this will become something niiiiice

mayonaise???

yamo... mayo... whatever...

Pixel art can get hard depending out what program you are using, like photoshop.
