Hey Dresk,
I haven´t heared any news about Kleshik for quite a while ?
Didn´t you want to set up a homepage for it ?
Since I was playing Kleshik the last evenings for a few hours I was thinking about one of our message exchanges. Wouldn´t a new model for the chaingun make much sense ? While I like the power and sounds of this weapon, I dislike the repositioned super nailgun as model.
I once suggested the chaingun model of SDQuake:

Honestly right now I think that the weapon is a bit overpowered. Plus the model has extremely high poly count.
The chaingun I like most is the one from UT2k4:

Combined with the visible motor which turns the barrels this one feels the more realistic.
Unfortunately my modelling skills sucks but may be someone skilled could make a cool looking model based on the super nailgun with attached "motor" ?
Let me hear what you think. IMO a new chaingun model would add much atmosphere during heavy firefights.
BTW: Some other folks are hacking together some new mod based on Kleshik / SDQuake. Looks way overpowered to me:
