I see 2 scripts I have to mess with, is there anymore ? I want to add iron sites to game but there seems to be a lot of touchy stuff in there.

Could you explain a little more..(Iron sites)?

I think he means open sights, a situation where you have 2 posts in the back and one in the front, as opposed to a scope. Sort of what you would see in a ww2 era game for the typical m14.

My suspicion is that realistic iron sights might be a little tough to work, because an FPS usually fudges the origin of the bullet based on raycasts and eye position because the weapon in an fps is more often than not offset from the center of the screen

You can probably get away with modifying the scope overlay graphics to look like iron sight pics and make things easier on yourself
