Need to find a French weapon for BF1942

[andoodle]

Excuse me, guys. I have another question. This time, it regards a certain French weapon. Where can i find, for Battlefield 1942, the FM 24/29 Châtellerault light machine gun? If it is not available individually, then which mods contain the FM 24/29 Châtellerault light machine gun? Note: I am doing this for my personal use only. Thanks.

I think your best bet would be Forgotten Hope/Battlegroup42 for mods.

PM Senshi for BG42, he would know.

Yep, I'm looking at the files for one right now that's in Battlegroup '42. I see the base 3D model for the FM 24/29, file name is fm2429_base_m1 and there are a couple others for the mag and such. But I highly reccomend NOT doing what I do and just copying stuff from everywhere, you might want to ask first. My main problem is that half, or most, of the people who developed the different mods I get stuff from I can't get in contact with anywhere/anymore. But Battlegroup is still going strong, thankfully. I'm happy to see modding teams still working on their mods. I'm sure my mod's next release would be done if I wasn't spending so much time playing Fallout: New Vegas and Garry's Mod.

All right, then. Can this weapon be held the same way as the other light machine guns, or do you have to deploy it or go prone in order to use it? Also, whom do you suppose I should ask about this?

...whom do you suppose I should ask about this?

Well, when I made my personal enjoyment mod, I did not really ask to borrow the two tanks, but I personally believe that you can keep your mod TO YOUR SELF, (maybe play it in LAN parties, but I'm kinda hazy on that one.) you should be fine.

Have you thought of using the Chauchat?

Have you thought of using the Chauchat?

Not really. It was more than likely used in limited numbers during WWII.

EDIT:

With all due respect, I am doing that for my personal use only. This means that I have no intention on distributing my mod through or via the internet... in any way. Also, I contacted the BattleGroup42 administrator (I joined the group beforehand) about whether the FM24/29 can be used as a normal firearm like the other "HandWeapons," and he told me that it can be used as a normal firearm, though that does not mean that it cannot be used as a stationary weapon as well.
