How do you make a weapon?

[JLobel]

im am wanting to make a weapon and curious how you do that

[Uncle_Bob]

you make a weapon mesh then code it I think. I know you can swap the meshes of objects in UED abd you can recode existing weapons. How you do I really dont know.

lol. I'm trying to do the same thing. I'll be looking through some tut's and the wiki for this, but I'm making one of my favorite weapons of all time (I'm surprised I couldn't find a very good pic of it): The Turok 2 Cerebral Bore. Probably one of the goriest guns around too. :evil:

The projectile flight path is going to be the most fun to code :blah:
BTW, should I use NURBS or poly in Maya?
