I don't get what differences his RPG "remake" sprite on that ZDoom forum post has from the final RPG. Is he really saying he remade the one in the beta image to not have a graphical glitch?

I think he's saying he crudely pasted a blue dot onto it...

I can't be the only one that spotted the problem here;

Note the blue part of the pistol is in the wrong place. All this blue, makes me suspect that the weapons all had a piece like that which would be a different color for each player in Multiplayer matches.

[TerminX]

They did.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that pistol was mirrored right? Bullet casings don't flow in the direction of the body.

That's assuming it's based on anything real. I've always believed it was a combination of hand painted stuff and some CGI pieces with a photographed hand, which may have been holding something else just to get the shadows right.

The shotgun was mirrored, but I suspect Commando's theory is correct because Duke's pistol doesn't resemble any real gun (except for a Hi-Point C9, but even then it's not exact.) Guns with the ejection ports on the left side of the gun do exist, although they are rare. Mainly produced for left handed shooters.

The pistol is a 3D model, you can spot some polygons.

He is posting on the zdoom forums with somebody who is supposedly his brother. http://forum.zdoom.o...hp?f=19&t=48110

Is it really a good idea to bring this thread up again? If he isn't hassling the eduke devs/3DR and isn't annoying forum members by repeatedly making threads here (at Duke4.net) about beta recreations or whatever, there's no need to draw attention to the guy.

[TerminX]

Agreed.
