two pistols

[angora]

i was wondering if you could make a script  or weapon that gave a solider two pistols as his main weapon.  the sights would have to be the same as 1st person veiw or have two diffrent sights wich could be complicated.

just an idea cos i'm crap at scriptin and stuff

Nah, it would be a new addon..
You'd need to make new animations (Standing holding two pistols, crouching with two pistols, and prone with two pistols, walking animation where you can shoot accuratly but are walking - with two pistols ect... Thats not all of them either)
You'd need to find a way of being able to fire out of multiple barrels (Take the Shilka, it only fires from one imaginary barrel in the center)
The optics for it wouldn't be that hard at all, though..
And if you make the anims for it all. I'm sure someone could make the model up in 10 mins (I've made 2 pistols before, but I scraped them after it looked rubbish, and I didn't want to make all the anims)

Gd luck tho


Basicly, no, it's not easily possible

Well if you did all that you could simulate two pistols.

You know the PBR ship has two M2s but there is only one imaginary barrel like the shilka that fires.

Why not just camcreate or create twice the normal amount of bullets that would come from one pistol and make them come out of the one imaginary barrel.

You get me? One barrel, double the amount of bullets=two pistols sorta... :-\

Hmm, like getting the bullets pos, and camcreating one _x+1 away from it, with all the velocitys and stuff?
Look for the LSC (Or LCS, can't remebers) L560 shotgun (Again, taht's a guess) on ofp.info
It has a shotgun that accutaly makes all the seperate bullets from a single shot

Yea I suppose you could x+1 it or just do a simple thing like making the flashes on the muzzles but the bullets come out inbetween the guns and the amount of bullets simulates the two pistols firepower.

NOT like the dual M2s on the PBR that have both muzzle flashes ( I think) and only have one M2 firing...

There a Backpack out there somewhwre that can carry a ton of stuff
You could use that to carry it

[DBR_ONIX]

Hmm, acctualy, I think you could get away with 1 to 3 new anims..
One for standing still and holding the pistols, and the same for the crouch and prone stance..
NOt sure about walking while aiming the weapons.. I think you have to be in scope view to do that.. Then that doesn't matter, coz you don't see the anim
