SCR needs a long-range Covenant weapon. Any suggestions on what I should use?

Hmm ... Does it look like Covenant? (purple, roundish, etc.)

Well ... I'm thinking of something that looks entirely different from the other weapons, but still easily recognizable as Covenant. Something like a Focus or Beam rifle, although unique weapons are ok. Perhaps your scope bitmaps can be fitted to another model ... if someone can suggest one.

The gravity rifle was originally intended to be some sort of covenant sniper, or so I recall. You could use that model but give it a covi bitmap.

Thanks! I might try that. I can make the skins, then use Bunnies scope, combine with a duplicate plasma pistol/rifle HUD (to get the battery)

After some testing:
  1. Gravity rifle needs a working FP mod2.
  2. Gravity rifle needs some firing effects.
  3. Gravity rifle has no overheat animation (or any FP animations for that matter)
  4. Gravity rifle sometimes looks embedded in the ground.
  5. Gravity rifle needs some Jackal holding animations ... I think.

Well - does anyone have a FP mod2 at least similar to what was done with the Energy Swords? (pasted over or something ...)

If not I'll consider CE weapons.

I reckon we could just use CMT's carbine, and edit the shit out of it. also, i've got a custom hud tag using the sniper rifle hud. it's heavily modded, it's got heat and such.

hmm like extract the model, compare it, rename it to fp then import it in..... it would look buggy, but it would work like how sword did it once... with the sword.

• Amy's method would be a quick fix.
• You should be able to customize an existing firing effect tag to fit your needs.
• Custom animations will require CE, though animations can be "borrowed" from other weapons (shown in original Sword mod).
• Swap a collision model (such as the Plasma Rifle's) into the Gravity rifle's Weap tag.
• You'll have to give it the label of a weapon the Jackal can already hold (Plasma Pistol, Plasma Rifle if I'm not mistaken).

You could also take my approach and do something like the Belm Rifle, though doing some skinning and graphical work alongside the game-play changes. I could also give you the most recent version.
