It amazes me at the amount of people who can't edit simple things like attack power or ammo count. Before you come posting here look in the shared.lua file or other files for the property you want changed. It's usually something like this Weapon.Ammocount.(variable)

[Upgrade123]

I must be stupid.


I don't know where to put the new update. Can someone please help me?
The sniper 'tis awesome, though.

[Kasper9384]

Simply amazing. Nice work! :)

[dvlstx]

Jaanus, please make a custom overlay for the scope. Just because some of us don't have CS:S doesn't mean we don't deserve to snipe some poor bastard!! Really, man. How hard is it to make a custom refraction overlay?! IT'S A BUMP MAP, FOR CHRIST'S SAKE!!!

So, please and thank you!

[Jaanus]

How hard is it to do it yourself?

Laser sight as seen in HL2

Custom parabolic sight

Known bugs:
Laser's origin in third person mode is not where it should be.
Laser twitches occasionally in first person mode. (Fixed in 1.1)
Errors when you die with the gun in your hand

Rate this guy below me too. He deserves it.

AzuBot lol yeah right lol ;)





Also very very nice job

[matt_12]

Can You make it into a ZIP?

[Jaanus]

No, get WinRAR.

[Serman]

Requesting your permission to upload the latest version on garrysmod.org?

[Falaffelz]

Really hope you make another version of this wicked swep with a custom overlay for the scope.

Really annoys me that I can't use the scope.

[smallfry]

This is a wonderful SWEP.
When you hold down Q or C, the laser will track to wherever your cursor is. It affects first and third person views - can you fix that?

He's not going to fix it. He's ignored my PMS. I am taking back my LUA king.

Why would your PMS be any of his business? Surely, that's more the domain of a medical professional.

That was smooth, Andy.

BACK on topic, I need someone to tell me how to change the scope overlay, since I don't have CSS.

[Jaanus]

Check the lua files. It's not hard to modify at all.

[emPiRe14]

When I download this... it says its version 1.1... Can anyone help me here?

[EDIT]
Wait what the... I got it... but in the ifo it says its 1.1 when its 1.2... AAARRGGG! Awesome combine sniper by the way!

I have no expirience whatsoever with LUA, and I don't know which files to change.

[redparty360]

The sniper folder gets extracted to addons, and use WinRAR to extract the updates to the sniper folder.

It uses the CS:S scope texture. You need CS:S.

I got cs:source but i still get black and purple squares when scoped.
Also the weapon model is a error. but it uses the awp model (or whatever the model is called) and i got that too.

Hmmm, I don't know what the problem is. Try re-downloading it.


As for the scope texture, I still don't know which file to edit.

[SABS001]

After two Half-Life 2s they finally released an official Combine sniper rifle.

[Jaanus]

You must have CS:S for the scope to work properly.

[NeoDement]

Why didn't you warn me you fixed it? :)

[Jaanus]

Uh, I posted here I fixed it D:

[Methodman]

I love this swep, it's probably my favorite. Stupid crossbow... Anyway, may I suggest a sort of "charging" sound before the laser starts up. So many people have complained about it not working, only to have the laser show up in like five seconds. It's not much of an addition, but would add quite a bit to the swep. Perhaps also a power down sound when you put it away or are out of ammo.

[kaikarden]

Now that, my friends, is a fucking sniper rifle.

[Upgrade123]

I don't know which file to modify to change the scope texture.

[Empty_Shadow]

Can you upload it elsewhere? Your site is giving me 6kb/s.
I don't know why, I don't care. I just want it uploaded somewhere else. Would putting it up on gmod.org kill you?

That said, epic swep. Love the model. You rule.

[Riptide]

Nice, nice.


I LOOVE CEREAL

[Cmdr Welhung]

It's amazing work.

Sure, it's no Fruit Life.

But it's still amazing work.

[Upgrade123]

I don't mean to annoy anyone, but I still don't know which file to modify to change the scope texture.

[Empty_Shadow]

Can you set this up to work as an NPC weapon?
That would be awesome.
Yes, I have tried using npc_create_equipment
They get rapidfire sniper rifles without a laser sight... So if we could get this working as an npc weapon.

Yeah, I know... NPC_Snipers, but they don't have a gun and you need to kill them with nades. I'd prefer a mobile combine that has the awesome AI and snipes you. Wouldn't you?

[Jaanus]

Tetabonita's base doesn't work well with NPCs other than the citizens.

[Empty_Shadow]

I'm fairly certain I tried it with civilians, and it's supposed to work with Alyx too right? I'm fairly certain either combine don't shoot the rounds, or are just so innacurate by AI that thye couldnt kill a single zombie.

Also, the model is REALLY big. I mean seriously, it's like, 2m long. Wow.

[soulsquisher]

It say's your website cannot be found. :(

[Jaanus]

Fixed.

[Zexon]

this has got to be the best looking sniper i have seen for Half life 2 yet

[DestWa]

Stupid question i have i have always wanted to make a swepwhit laser aim modul how can i do this please tellme

Just go into the Lua and edit the code to get rid of it.
I had to, and it still works fine.
If you need help doing that, let me know.

If you go into the LUA folder, it will be the one that is not called "shared.lua", you go into that, and scroll down until you find something along the lines of "draw scope overlay" or something like that, I can't remember right now, so when I get home, I will take a look at it.
