Hi everybody,

I tried to make a realistic bolter from Warhammer 40K:

This is an automatic weapon firing self propelled explosive rounds,
the sprite is far from perfection but
I think the gameplay is very good.
No known bugs, please report any problem;
I may update this mod with new weapons.
Enjoy.

Here is a little picture:


And here is the mod:

I like the way you used 'realistic' and 'bolter' in the same sentence

I meant a bolter that really fires self propelled explosive rounds, some already released were just "super MGs"

If you plan on getting spriters to help out and/or modify the pack, then post your mod here:
viewforum.php?f=1
If you plan on probably not getting motivated enough to finish this, then post it here:
viewtopic.php?f=61&t=16863

Mod Releases is not for one gun mods, however.

Also, the picture posted hardly gives an accurate idea of what the gun is/does. Post an animated GIF of an actor with the gun shooting another actor. If you don't know how to create an animated GIF from CC, go here:

I like the fireball in the picture

Crop the screenshot next time, that presentation doesn't really cut it.
And ignore what LFOW said about not releasing a mod if its a single gun, because thats just bs. If a modder made a mod that consist of a single weapon and its well done, and the creator actually wants to get some feedback for it then ♥♥♥♥ yes post it in mod releases. You will not get any feedback in the mod dump, I can assure you that.

this.
but try not to spam with one gun threads, if your making lots of one small mods, do us a favor and put them in a nice little pack. it makes them look much better.

On the contrary, I am making an Ultramarines mod (),and I made a new material that almost perfectly emulates explosive rounds.

I thought you weren't going public with it, Joe...? Yet?

Well, now the cover's blown; Joe's Ultramarines are... Interesting, to say the least >.>

In any case this rifle is kind of like a MDC Rocket Rifle (Goes boom on contact, ect.) but it kind of has its own feel to it... And an absurd magazine.

What you want is for it to actually penetrate the target, then after a short delay explode. That could even take out heavily armoured things and would be a bit different.

I would gladly do that if I knew how to do it, if anyone knows how to, please tell me.

Only MOPixels can penetrate actors and terrain in the way Eviltebor described. The good news are there exists a hack to make MOPixels act as if they were explosive:

Attach a scrip to the MOPixel and in the Destroy function you spawn and gib an explosive at the same position as the MOPixel. This will not work 100% of the time since CC does not always allow spawning MOs in the Destroy function, but the player will probably not notice.

The smoke and fire effects of the rocket can be simulated in the script's Update function by spawning an appropriate particle every update.
