Civilian with pistol [+pic]

[=Romagnolo=]

There is something wich needs to be changed

[DeltaFart]

hmmm thats an issue, until that gets removed, they aren't exactly friendly

[tupla_s]

This has been mentioned previously, iirc you'd have to do make a totally new model to fix that. And re-skinning it in to a banana wouldn't look good =)

Might remember wrong though.

[Sanke]

Im pretty sure you cant edit a EA model so you would probably need a whole new model.

[ReadMenace]

Yeah, requires a new kit geometry, which I'd love to do.

[Spec]

Oh. Never paid attention to that. Should be changed indeed, a new civilian model would be cool.

[bosco_]

It's an airsoft gun, doh!

[daranz]

A bunch of other kit geometries have handguns in holsters, even though the kit itself has no such thing. The medic kit geometries have defibrillators. It's understandable, seeing how PR reuses them from BF2.

[Rudd]

can't they just remove the utility belt? kinda like the US Army crewmen

[-CJ-]

Is it possible for a soldier (civilian in this case) to have no geometry ?

[LithiumFox]

yes. but then they wouldn't exist visually now would they? XD

no geometry = no model = no existance

I could see it now... *imagination*

"Run Private Run, We have a Civilian GHOST! RUUUUUUUUU.. *bang* ACK HE GOT MY LEG OMG HE GOT MY *starts flipping around, swinging in the air, getting thrown against walls*"

"OMG THEY GOT JOSEPH! WE HAVE TO GO BACK!"

"We can't. You were a great leader joseph, but no way in hell am i fighting an invisible iraqi. Thats just creepy"

then an invisible grenade comes and explodes all of them

^-^ kinda like our invisible molotov fire

[Airsoft]

so that makes it OK to shoot them since they're armed

[daranz]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but kit geometry is separate from character geometry. That's why it's possible to change your loadout with a kit without changing your character model (easiest to see on the US team - people who spawn black stay black, people who spawn white stay white).

The US crewman is a geometry itself, it just doesn't feature anything aside from the helmet.

Complete geometry removal is possible, just look at the soldiers in this PR video

Already been said before. Locking for it being already mentioned.
