Not much to say. Its not anything amazing, but can be helpful. instead spending a a couple mins doing it yourself, you will already have it.

I didn't give a read me file, so to install just put in place of all the old models.

here's the icon

That is a big suppressor.

That's what I thought, but it's still a good result for the effort that was put in.

Didn't the sniper already have a suppressor?

i have 2 questions:

what bitmap (if it is indeed a bitmap) is the icon thing labeled under?

how would one go about editing the icon?

ive been wondering about this for quite some time now, as when you put in models, but the icon stays the same its kinda annoying...

If you mean that small square thing on the end, I doubt it is, it helps accomplish none of the usual tasks

A good idea to do if you wanted a better effect for the supressed idea is to null out all the flash, light and smoke effects so it doesnt look so fake! To match the slincer model.

*A silenced sniper sound would help*

the open block thing at the end of the barrel i believe is to help break the blowback. instead of having a closed barrel, which all the opposite force of the bullet would be slamming the back backwards, the vents on the side allow the pressure to flow out both to the left and right, thus diminishing you chances of breaking your arm off. you can deff see how it works with the flash in halo. it was a real suppresser, there wouldnt be such a huge flash...

thats my 2cents

Must have been hard to edit that supressor....

You could have just taken a picture of the hud....orrr...could have cut the picture so that thats the only one showing. Instead of me waiting to see what was loading. Meh. It looks alright. I wouldnt use..
