Creating 2 ussocoms in mp to be used simultaniously, is what I would like to be done. Dose anyone out there know how to do it?

SlowJusko has created a mod that allows dual weapons.  He may be able to help. He's a board member so send him a PM.

thanks man,

Maybe its more difficult then this....but it seems to me that the graphic portion of it seems simple.... you just need to take the existing graphic, flip it vertically, and rotate it by 180 degrees..... but its the code that is a problem for me. I know you are limited to the game engin, but i know you can use dual pistols, in sp so I know it can be done.

The fact that something can be done in SP doesn't mean it will work in MP, since they're basically 2 different games.

Flipping the weapons doesn't really work.
To add dual uzis/pistols, code in support for a second view model, muzzle flash etc and then switch the animations names to left_<animation>.
That's about it really.
If you want it to look right in third person, hack in third person animations etc.

Basically, a lot of mucking around and the end result isn't quite perfect. Better then no two weapon usuage, for sure, but still...

thx man,

 Is the animation for the ussoccom in the wpn file? What do I have to do exactly to the animation? just change right to left? what about the glm and world files, do they have to be changed? Im going to mess around, see what i can come up with...

My weapon file looks like this now....

Dunno if this is much use to you.

Both the Socom and M1911a1 have left hand anims. All you would need to do is code in a seconf inview model and animtion loading system for it. The player model would get tricky as there are no dual wielding anims.

i saw a guy in my clan make it so we had duel uzies and he did it in like 15 min so it can b done

Dual guns is something I'd be interested in learning to do, although I am running out of time and patience with this game.

As for 15 minutes to code in dual uzi's - I don't think so? If it took only 15 minutes to do PROPERLY I would have taken a shot at doing it myself by now.
