Pros: HD model & texture, awesome animations ! Cons: none Improvements: perfect need improvements ? Notes: Awesome !

lol n1 skin dowloading 10/10 i like the reload ;)

very nice shooting anims. ;) they fit very well to a strong ak47. :D 10/10. :D

The only thing making these animations ugly in my opinion is that he don't even have enough time to grab the stock with his left hand before he pulls the bolt with his right.

Now I can aim heads...lol

GJ!

Very nice skin

It's not that there is a problem with the files, it's just that before the update, the game was running an edited version of the Episode 1 engine which only supported a single alpha shader instead of the two, being phong and cubemap reflections, but now it runs a newer Left 4 Dead 2 engine which supports both shaders at one time. When FxDarkLoki makes normals he uses cubemap line commands in the VMT files. I'm not sure if it was because of Rosa Jonas and his VMT layouts, but for whatever reason people started using the reflection commands along side their phong lines regardless of the fact that phong pretty much cancles out any reflection line on the older Ep.1 engine. So pretty much when the game got updated it didn't break the texture files, it enabled the reflection lines that were already present in the VMTs. In any other case, this would be fine because it would enhance the look of the model, but in order to achieve the desired effect, Loki made the alpha map a bit stronger. This caused the reflective counterpart to look odd.

To get rid of the reflections that make the weapon appear glossier than usual, open the VMT files with VMTEdit or notepad and remove the following lines:

"$envmap" "env_cubemap" "$normalmapalphaenvmapmask" 1

$envmap designates the environment cubemap shader to be used. $normalmapalphaenvmapmask enables the use of the alpha layer of the normal map to be used as the mask for the reflection shader.

This also goes for any other release as well as working backwards for other materials such as lenses to be reflective and also include the dynamic phong shader.

The origins of the gun actually show you how big a AK really is, rather than valves where it looks tiny! Animations are also amazing, the reload where he flicks the empty clip with his thumb tops this off. I dont even have to comment on the textures and models, since they are amazing anyway Good job, hope to see more animations for other guns soon! :)

This is so much fun to use in game. Everything about it is great. I love the animations/origins, and this is my favourite model. The firing sound was a lot different than what I'm used to hearing from an AK, but it grew on me.

Excellent job to all authors. :)
