I cannot do this because honestly i'm clueless when it comes to modeling and scripting, but my suggestion is that, someone (anyone) should make a (Somewhat-big) Pack of parts of (real or imaginary) gun/weapon parts, like handles and blades, hilts and guards of swords/melee weapons, and grips,foregrips, lights, sights, stocks,colors, etc... of gun models and make it all in one pack and you can collect parts and interchange them on a weapon, and even name/save your created weapons to the server, and to make customization easier, include a GUI to help with it, and have the GUI give a preview of how your weapon will look.
Now as i said before, dont count on me to make this because i said i'm completley clueless when it comes to scripting or modeling, but anyone that feels like taking up the challenge can do this, and just to keep this post alive, why not post pictures of cool parts or whole weapons you'd would love to interchange with one another.
Even if this never becomes a reality, isn't still a nice thought?
Summary:
Customizable Weapons,
Melee:Blade, Handle, Hilt, Guard, Color, Hammer Head, Axe Head, Point
Ranged: String, Bow, Thrown, Shot, Ammunition, Body, Stock, Sight, Etc. atatchments (Laser pointer, Flashlight, foregrip, etc.), Barrel, Grip/handle, Clip, Strap
If you have any other idea's as to what you could add to this, Please, I encourage you to.
* EUREKA!* I thought of a way to make this possible (still im not too sure, but it sounds reasonable). Ok, the new way i had thought to make this possible without completley creating a new add-on every time it made a new weapon, is make it controlled through RTB server prefs.
Ok, here is how it could work:
=======================
Custom weapons : [3] [Number of weapons to be created] *for every weapon there is it creates a new button in the RTB prefs *maybe only 5-10 weapons allowed*, that opens a GUI, and the GUI would read:*
=======================
Name: Melee/ranged 1-10
Type : Melee/Ranged
Ammo : [Arrows/Bullets/Rockets/Nades]
Damage : [1-200]
Secondary fire : [Sights/Nade L./Melee/etc.]
Clip Size : [1-150] *1-30 assault/1-25 rifle/1-10 Handgun/1-8 Sniper/ 1-150 LMG*
Gun type : [Assault/Rifle/Handgun/Sniper/LMG/Launcher]
Edit Apearance *This button would open a GUI like the Player apearance editor, only this time it's with a gun/Melee weapon*
And lastly there would be a publish button.
So what do you guys say?
*Added Notes*
Red Text is a small explanation
Blue is changeable
Black is Read... no more no less
And for those people who say IMPOSSIBLE!! just make the gun customizing GUI like the player appearance thing, the helmet goes on the head, and the cape around the neck, so with the gun one, Barrel on the front, sight on top, grip underneath, and like the visor with the helmet, make things like foregrip and nade L. only available with certain other things, like barrel and body, equipped.
*P.S. Make it so you have to restart the server for effects to take place :0 Derp :D)
