This PlayerBody collection is a shoutout to the Gungeoneer of the Homebrew discord, the Melon himself. Originally I had planned on making these in time for Christmas but things blew out of control, so better late then never!
This pack features five PlayerBodies:
Gungeoneer: My personal depiction of the main man himself for all the tutorship and gun knowhow he has, I wonder if he would ever be interested in becoming an actual guns teacher? (Sorry it's not Gaz btw, but I hope you do enjoy it Melon!).
Cleaner: Melon Themed Chem Soldier, originally intended as a Backrooms reference to go with the Halloween PBs, now repurposed for this DMZ Meloncorp pack.
Fruitac: The Default Kortac 1 skin from MW '22, with a splash of that Meloncorp camo. I rocked Kortac I for a while because it was a close Darkness Bale equivalent, for free at the time! Now I can relive those earlier days with this PB.
Melontant: The Level 1250 skin for MW '22, a DMZ disguise turned Melon. You don't need to grind in a subpar Multiplayer to use this skin now, you can use it in H3!
Rind: The Jugg Suit PB, Rhino with a definite affinity for Watermelons, this PB will make you feel like 50000 health makes sense!
The pack comes a bit bulky but I hope it fits well to those looking for a bit more milsim in their meaty gunfights!
A few days ago I was experimenting with hand renderers just for the lolz, and I didn't like how H3MP handled "hand view only" mode. Outright hiding the rest of the meshes and leaving only head and hands, it looked ugly in third person. I also didn't like how difficult it was getting stuff from the quickbelt with big chest rigs in the way of my view. Combine two problems and solve them both with one solution, this is the COD Viewpoint update.
Taking key notes with how Contractor$ handles their viewmodels, hands, arms, and sometimes minimalized chests (inner wear) are in the hand renderer input while everything else is in the head renderer section. You will no longer see your body in first person, but don't fret, you'll still be able to see it in third person, whether using HD Spectator Cameras, 3rd Person Views, Catcher Cams (click your right thigh!), or by any other means to manipulate H3VR cameras. Best part, this viewpoint works no matter if you spawn the body through H3MP's menu or through the item spawner, so make the most of it, movie makers! This widespread update is here to help give further variety to a vast selection of COD based PlayerBodies, and you'll be sure to find a favorite style if you give them all another go!
Note - COD Viewpoint will only be available for COD playerbodies. Anime/Misc PlayerBodies have not been mesh-split to accomodate this viewpoint style, and to do so would mean to remake the PB from scratch. Future anime/misc PBs will continue to not support this viewpoint style. AAA title based PBs will be considered depending on the detail of the meshes.
If you don't like this Viewpoint update for whatever reason, feel free to downgrade to the previous version. This method is how future COD PBs will be supported, for maximized convenience sake.
Despite the thumbnail implying it would work with H3MP, all PlayerBodies made by me will no longer support Multiplayer. H3MP is still a requirement for the PBs to work, but due to the Physical Object game component on all my PBs, it renders them useless on the multiplayer side of things. This change was a necessary requirement to allow the models to have a delete option (delete all spawnables) when spawned from the item spawner, and I won't undo this change anytime soon. I apologize to the 1% of people with friends who play H3VR, I recommend you get Pavlov or Contractor$ for a better multiplayer experience.
Models are sourced from MW '22, all thanks to Kirloper's Repo!
Thank you for looking out for me Melon, I am grateful for that kindness as it means a lot to me.
I know from previous commentary the PBs stuff wasn't your thing, but I do believe this might hit the right balance of gameplay and aesthetic. I wouldn't be uploading all the updates in mass if I didn't believe in it, after all!
