Iron Sight Zoom
I know we have discussion on this going in a separate thread, but it's buried fairly deeply, and only seven people have expressed their opinions. I'm bringing the issue out into its own thread for better visibility.
From Wikipedia:
The term iron sights refers to the open, unmagnified aiming system used to assist the aiming of a variety of devices, usually those intended to launch projectiles, such as firearms....
For those wondering, iron sight zoom is a game effect that applies a slight factor of magnification when using iron sights within Call of Duty 2. For example, if you switched to the iron sights on your Karabiner 98k, your vision would zoom slightly to bring you "closer" to the sights. This is what happens in vanilla Call of Duty 2.
FYI, I now have both an "unzoomed" version (the current version on the server) and a "zoomed" version of TGWeapons available for our use. Let's decide once and for all which version we'd like to use. Please vote!

Re: Iron Sight Zoom
Vote yes.
Would it be 'realistic' to have a different zoom level on the rifles vs. the MGs? How about a zoom level 0.5 times the regular CoD2 for rifles and 0.25 times the regular zoom for MGs?

Re: Iron Sight Zoom
Zoom!
The no zoom is very annoying. It is a bit of a handicap in the game.

Re: Iron Sight Zoom
I actually already did something pretty similar, but over a slight range of values. From most zoom (at the top of the list) to least (at the bottom), here is how I have things set up currently:

The default iron sight zoom for Call of Duty 2 was more than this (50, I believe), so we'd be getting slightly less with the setup above. It actually seems to look and work pretty well.
How does this sound?

Re: Iron Sight Zoom
Let's evaluate that and tweak if we have to.

Re: Iron Sight Zoom
Is the modified zoom actually working?
I just read on the WRM Forums...
"The problem is that what you see done with the sights in stock settings is not an animation. To cut corners COD brings the rifle up as we see on our server then zooms the whole image. As of yet we cant seperate the 2 images (the world and your character). If we could seperate these 2 things then it would be treated very much like how RO models ADS."

Re: Iron Sight Zoom
I have it ready to go in case the majority of folks want it implemented, but it's not on the server. Originally Posted by Gonzo
