Argh! Vanilla UT2k4 Models!

[Get Up And Kill]

Now, I know this isn't really a bug, per se, but it's annoying nonetheless. Unfortunately it's of no fault but the players themselves.

Sadly, there's no restriction on the non-KF UT2k4 models in multiplayer. The only ones I could think of that don't detract too badly from the general "survival horror" atmosphere are some of the Merc models (like Romulus & Remus, since they both got gasmasks and wear stupid wetsuits), but everything else gets agitating. There's nothing like fighting tooth-and-nail next to your squad, and suddenly seeing a Skaarj running past you with a shotgun, or a gigantic android with a chainsaw.

While there's nothing wrong with a Robot with a chainsaw, it is to my understanding Alex is working on this.

[sgtenix]

yes it is annoying seeing some girl in a thong shotting a shotty beside you.

The Larger problem with the UT2k4 player models is that they do NOT support the Killing floor custom weapon animations

(which are now working online...they weren't before)

i was about to ask that , how does a robot use his fists...same problem on ut a skaarj with a mini gun shows human handsvery weird..not only spoil game play but it spoils the atmosphere, a xan in westlondon is very awkward with the super gritty grime graphics, also he complained of the poor lighting in westlondon and the lack of it ...my asnwer back to it was

moo: you know pretty hard getting electricity to 9000 infected
and 70 survivors.

3rd person or 1st?
If its 3rd i would like to ask if you made a custom animation for all weapons?

[Get Up And Kill]

Another quick thing about the models...

Is there any way to use Masterson in Multiplayer? Or does he not have the weapon animation support?

[Soldner]

I think Masterson would be great model.

Maybe in a future update, Alex, you could add more milary models. Like Masterson, they could all have the same body but different heads, like red berets, guys with bandaged heads, balaclavas, stuff like that. It would be pretty cool if you have the time after tha patch is finished.

[sgtenix]

Hey get up and kill, you say is there anyway to be masterson, why do you ask? if you go to options anc player hes not in the selection,,,

[Soldner]

I second shizno

[Dastard]

What could be done with Masterson is you would have to beat the SP game to play as him, like the boss models in vanilla UT.
