Updated Weapons Pack

Topic: New Weapons Pack

Short Explanation: Switch to FA:S 2.0 Weapon Pack

Detailed Description:
As happy as I am with the server's current weapon pack, I believe it could be improved, I propose switching to Spy's FA:S 2.0 Weapon Pack. Many servers use this as it is relatively stable in high-lag situations, such as when the server is full, and most people's ping is around 150. It would have to be edited with new world models obviously, and would most likely be a rather large project development for the server. I have looked into this a bit, and have realised that item refunds may not be necessary, as most of the weapons within the current game have viable Equivalents / Alternatives in FA:S 2.0.

Additional Notes:
I Have the possible alternatives and such here:

Current M9 = P226
Current Glock 20 = Glock 17
Current M1911 = M1911
Current Desert Eagle = Desert Eagle
Current M9 Supressed = P226 w/ silencer option
Current Automatic Pistol = Automatic Pistol
Current Mac-10 = Mac 11
Current MP5 = MP5A5
Current 870 = 870
Current Benelli = Benelli
Current Famas = Famas
Current M16 = Unsure
etc.

I don't think this should be added at all, Cause the weapons we already have are great enough, And realistic, FAS weapons are just a biiit too "Nonrealistic" As i said i don't think this will be needed at any point, Cause it is makes a lot more confusion, -MeniusSupport.

We got firearms source weapons its very realistic, and BETTER than FA:S... way more realistic.

alright, well, lets let the poll decide whether the community wants it.

I've decided to give you a serious answer;
FAS:S 2 is a very cool add-on but actually it isn't that well done..
The thoughts about it is extremely epic!
I would love it on this server if it actually worked but here I'm gonna give you some screenshots;

This is the MAC-11 3D-Model. As you can see here there is absolutely NOTHING in my hands.

This is the M14. Well what is wrong with this? It's actually not modded with the scope.

This is the UZI, which looks exactly like a MP5 with the scope on it.

This is the NOT modded G36C

This is the Remington.

Here is the Glock..


You can probably tell where this is going. I do not belive that this should be added due to the models, sound and some of the attachments

Also I should mention that changing what weapons we use would mean gun parts and guns people own would be useless. As well as I personally couldn't be bothered chopping each one up to create the different components again.

If the reason you think it should be added is because of the fancy attachment things, it should be obvious it wouldn't function properly with our setup at all. They work fine in sandbox but not when you're trying to manage an inventory and save items between sessions.

So that combined with the post showing the model fails it has, this seems like it would be unfeasible and honestly bad.

Keep in mind, the current system uses our own PH weapon base, not that of FA:S
