Standardized aiming. Practical part

[Liah_Kim]

Let me remind you the problem. If player takes different guns of one class and aims with them, he will see one of these cases (aim without zoom):

1. “Quake” tube (arisakas and mosins suffers the most):
   

   
   
   
   

2. “Spaghetti” hands (kars and sniper varians):
   

   

3. Normal one (only few in the game):
   

   
   
   

So my idea is to find optimal “entity_cam_nodes_aimNodeIdx” value for each gun (it is responsible for camera position) and store it in one file, so devs can change it all at once. Here is this file:

Guns Rework

And this is how aiming will look after this change (same guns):

Question is: shall I continue or that’s not what this game needs?

Btw, I’ve finished standardization for all BAs

I would have to try it ingame to see what feels better, but just from the looks of it, the standardized aiming is a big improvement, especially in the case of the “quake tubes”.

Use mission editor for that.

1. Create new mission
2. Make at least one respawn point
3. Spawn a gun
4. Pick it (properties are reset on pickup)
5. Do what you want with it
