[GAUGING INTEREST] WW2 Weapons Pack

Hey folks,

I am currently gauging interest in a WW2 weapons pack:

Definites

  • High triangle/spec count (2048s at most, probably 10-25k tris depending on weapon)
  • Animation-ready (Rigged for animation)
  • Full suite of LODs (0-4)
  • FX/Sounds

Stretch Goals

  • Mobile conversion (Yikes!)
  • Allied and Axis gunsleeves
  • Gunsleeves with animation
  • Weapon animations (reloads, etc.)
  • Modular components
  • Alternate skins
  • Material Swatches

Gun List
All the usual favorites

  • Garands
  • Lee-Enfields
  • Springfields
  • M1911s
  • Lugers
  • Thompsons
  • Machine guns
  • Launchers
  • Grenades
  • Melee weapons

Nothing new in the list, mostly a list of old favorites and, depending on how it goes, I might throw in some more obscure guns.

I have a full-time career, so this would be a fun side project. If there is a strong interest in something like this, I’ll start a WIP thread for all my work as well as a community poll asking for input on how the packs would be broken up (Pistol pack vs. Allied Pack vs. All in One, etc.). I would also be open to input on other aspects: what to include, what not to include, what’s the most beneficial, high asset count per pack vs. low asset count per pack, etc.

Thanks for your time!

Cheers!

I’d definitely be interested. I’ll follow any thread you make.

It would be good to see something that wasn’t and AK or an M4. Don’t forget the M1 carbine, Mauser and MP40!

Thanks for the replies. I am hoping to get started soon after the current batch of projects is completed.

@docjr The M1A1 Carbine will probably be the first out of the gate. A bolt-action will be 2nd: possibly the Mauser. I gotta get all the blockins done and test different animations early. :slight_smile:

Love to see this!

Would definitely be interested as long as the price isn’t too high.

I honestly would love to see some vehicles :slight_smile:

Ranging from the German Opel Blitz to Various Axis and Allied tanks and Aircraft.

There are just to many to name.

Definitely. I have some thoughts about price but not terribly concerned with it atm. It’ll be fair though; I’m not into gouging other devs, just want to offer quality at a fair price.

Vehicles are definitely on the menu but that’s a whole different side project. :slight_smile:

Thanks again for the replies, really appreciate it.

When do you expect to be finished with this pack?

Hey Alanconrad,

I wish I could give you a date but since this is a part-time/free-time endeavor for me, the pack is probably ways out. I am aiming to do 1-3 guns per month but I have to balance that with work and wife/kids, so there is no guarantee. I also haven’t defined what the pack(s) will be. If it’s one large pack, it will take quite some time!

I did get started the other day, however, and should have some progress posted up once there is a significant update (high poly nearly finished, etc). Trust me, I’m eager to get these out and in front of everyone to see.

Cheers!

Ya, I am interested in such a pack.

Is this still happening? :slight_smile:

I am looking for more WWII content, I hope this will make it in too. Also, I would like to see lowres - mobile version of these assets :slight_smile: If it will be well priced then it is must have.
