"Hired Guns" weapon sprites

Post by Bourbon Cowboy »

Based on the image from the game "Hired Guns":
Spoiler:
I've ripped this thing directly from the cover, polished and modified it a little bit and made a set of sprites for a sort of a blaster weapon. Uses standard Doom palette. Credits go to DMA Design and Psygnosis Limited.
I would be glad if someone made use of these sprites. :)

P.S. I've never played this game and I'm not sure if I will... It's a kind of an FPS/RPG with a cooperative mode for 2-4 players (a single player mode is also available, but you have to control 4 characters directly (from a first-person view) which probably makes the game difficult).

That looks pretty neat. It's nice to see something new being done. It would fit quite well into something with a Blake Stone-ish look.

I've only played the game a couple of times myself but a few of my friends were really into Hired Guns "back in the day".

Hmm - it'd take a bit of editing and the addition of a stock to the weapon, but I think this would work well as a centered Thompson SMG.

I've always wanted to make a Hired Guns TC for Skulltag, so it could be played in online multiplayer. I wonder how I could rip the sounds?

Does anybody have a Doomguy hand that would fit on the foregrip of this?

You mean something like this?

Or more like the grip on the shotgun?
Edit: AKA Like this?

I think I might have it covered thanks to some Doom Alpha hands:

That's looking nice, if a bit too shiny.

Looking good. I notice that the bottom left corner of the arm is not widescreen friendly.

Oh God, I thought the fore grip is the forearm, like the Dragon Claw arm.

I modified the grip a bit. It was looking to have a weird perspective, and also made a darker version.

Animated sprites with hands, both the shinny and the dark ones.

i guess since we're talking about rips from obtuse/illogical sources, he'res a gun ripped from a screenshot from the movie hard boiled
