One fraggin’ Millions
Well just a little YAY because my name2key database just crossed the million of keys/name pairs, you can browse it here : http://kdc.ethernia.net/sys/name2key.php
Ever heard of the cornershot?
I didn’t before either.
The CornerShot is some of the nifty tools the Israeli defense force are inventing in their free time hehe, it’s basically a sort of frame that will hold your weapon for you, it has a built in camera and the end can be turned at +-45 degrees or can be kept straight (so you don’t looks like an idiot when an enemy is in front of you. Well it’s a gun designed to shoot behind corners, door frames, windows, etc… Without exposing yourself.
Here is a little YouTube video for those that aren’t afraid to learn something today.

Okay, Obviously it’s a cool toy. Now to get in the thick of the subject, i decided to try to build it for Armed Assault. And here you can see my work in progress pictures in all their glory.
Not bad i guess, lots of molded plastic on this thing. It’s the hi-resolution version that i will use to make the normal maps (and at worst case i will have a nice folding butt stock i can recycle in something else)
