This kind of equipment is easy to wipe with a rag which you can have just about anywhere and use anything as a rag. The ERYX has no dirt, in fact no PR weapon uses dirt from what I have seen.

If it has dirt on it but we are in desert it won't make sense. When can we get this in game?

Sorry by dirt I don't necessarily mean mud, more actual general grime, wear and tear. If you take the ERYX for an example (although this model was made by DICE, not us) you can see it does have "dirt":


But others in PR do too:




As for the environment, this isn't generally done for weapons but you could have separate "woodland" and "desert" textures for the weapon with different colour mud or sand, like you see on vehicles (although generally, the whole camo is different for them too), but I would avoid actual mud when applying dirt to a weapon for the most part, more just general wear and grime is best.

Just a question what is needed to implement this into the game? Just the Fire and Forget system?

The firing code is already in game and used by the Spike. For Javelin it would be pretty much the same. The thing missing are animations

Why animations are the hardest?

Cause we have no active animator at the moment.
