Theory in action

[Urre]

This a theory I wanted to try out. It attaches the players view in front of the head, so there would only be the playermodel required, no viewmodels. I saw this in a couple of games, and I think more games should use it.

Yes, it has a new model, so it's not just the old ranger model, which wouldn't give the point across properly.

No, it's not a good model. It is only a test model, to prove my point.

Please read the readme first, for a couple of recommended cvars.

I also forgot to mention that cl_stairsmoothspeed 1000 or above is recommended, for it to not feel glitchy as you walk on stairs.

The code is included for anyone who wants to see, it was based on an old version of a mod called RemaQe's source, which was based on the scratch tutorials. It's not anything clean whatsoever, I just wanted to see if this would work, and it did.

It was made for DarkPlaces, but it may work in other engines supporting md3 models, namely FTEquake.

Big thanks to LordHavoc for hosting this file.
