I kept quiet because.... Well I guess I didn't feel like typing at the time. But I don't really like the textures given. The wood needs to be very detailed so it looks like its actually crafted rather than a big block of wood. The metal is alright, could be better but not too worried about it.

The hands are so large compared to the crossbow, it makes it look like a very tiny bow. Not that'd stop me from using it, just sayin'.

I once saw a movie called "grendel de monster" (low budget version of Beowulf), and the hero Beowulf carried a big ass crossbow that used explosive arrows

Lol, give me a break, that PVKII crossbow has almost the exact same size hands compared to the bow, its just that its in his face.

Since it's already animated and the model is too crappy, i'll just scrap this and make a new one

T3h H34vy? (<- That might be a bit much.)

Meh, if only I wasn't so limited with the models I could toss in, I'd have a dozen different xbows in already.

I'm sure I can send it in but as I understand it MSC is pretty much out of space on models, adding in another crossbow 'just for the sake of using stuff' seems dubious. Might as well add what we know we want for sure...

and yes, i should probably read thothie's post before making my own :p

well im starting this again this week, and i have a mind to make a repeating crossbow in the eastern style with some decorative flair, that good enough?

also, if this crossbow won't be included in anything i'd like to at least release it as a third party replacement for the current crossbow, so ill upload it tomorrow

Implemented. (As the Heavy Xbow - thus recommend not replacing your light xbow as the sights wont line up anyways.)

Took a couple of times to line up the HXbow with the iron sights, but once I had that, wow, the thing kicks ass. 'specially with all the new xbow features.

Could use a playermodel, but lack there of isn't stopping this double damage, steel bolt weilding puppy from showing up in the next release. 60 dmg per shot with the freebie arrow at level 30, and 100% accurate with the iron sights. Well over 200 with the steel bolts

Wait, what? I just released that as a replacement, but if you want it to be the heavy xbow, okay I guess. Hopefully you slowed the reload down, as I sped it up to make it fit the normal crossbow.

I'll make a p_ and w_ along with some player animations tomorrow
