L96 brit sniper kit.

[Eddie Baker]

About the scope zoom, the real-life M24 and L96A1 have 10x scopes by default, the Chinese QBU-88 has 4x, and the SVD has 4x or 6x.

I've never been in the military (too young to even consider it) and have never handled a firearm, but this is what I've gathered from the Internet.

QBU-88 has a variable 3-9x telescopic sight available, and the L96A1 has been fielded with a new 3-12x variable telescopic sight for a few years. You are correct, however, that the PSO-1 scope for the SVD is 4x and the Leupold M3A scope for the M24 is 10x.

Is it possible with the BF2 engine to make a scrollable-zoom scope? I know they've done it in BF2142 with the scope unlock, but that was only 2-stage. If this were done it would add quite a bit of realism to the sniper rifles (not to mention having me not spaz my gun around aimlessly because I got disoriented.)

With the mouse scroll, no. We have done it with the fire-mode selection switch.

Well, here's some stuff from a BF2142 sniper rifle (zoom + sway). Don't know if this will help much.

paste it into bf2 then and see if it works

It appears to be a nightvision device that piggy-backs on the regular scope using a prismatic lense that is positioned in front of scope's objective lense.

CTD probably =P

I hate having dual zoom on the right mouse button, if im getting shot at I dont want to have to click twice to get out of scope :-/ Could mean the difference between life and death.

Well, as a developer already said - they managed to get it working by using the 'firering mode' button.
Like, if your sniper is on SLOT3
You press your zoom button (default MOUSE2)
Then press 3 to change between the two levels zoom
