I'm really sorry if I'm "stealing" this project but as I'm new to the maya model editor and the modding community in general, I thought it would be better to know wether my "work" is helpful or usable at all, before I apply on further tasks or any tasks at all. I made this model of the DM 61 fraggrenade in half an hour:

I reaaaally need comments on what I could improve as this grenade is my 2nd model I created with maya (my first one is a model of the km 2000 combat knife and I'm still waiting for a pm-answer from betterdeadthanread).
Ah and btw. this is my first post too

Hello Project Reality Forum!

Err + I have no idea what the poly-count or tri-count or whatever does, but maya says this model has: 3840 Tris, 1988 Faces, 1934 Verts, 3908 Edges and 2379 UV(s?)... I heard something about a limit of 3k Tris, is that right

Edit: Aaah and you can make me happy by sending me the link to pictures of the dm61 fraggrenade... Didn't find any so I used "PointOfExistance"-Screenshots to get a rough idea how this grenade looks like...

I haven't been able to find any decent reference shots so I can't really say anything helpful in regards to this model other than it looks pretty good.

And I just responded to your PM.

Dont get me wrong but the germans use the DM 51 not 61

1: DM61, Fraggranade not used by the Bundeswehr
2: DM51(A1), Fraggranade used by the Bundeswehr
3: DM51, Nade without "Splittermantel" dont know how this is called in english. Google says Shards mantle hope this isnt any insult

The blue ones are the training grenades.

Here some pictures

Here a profile of the nade

Btw.

GREAT! Thanks a lot man
I'm happy to say that I've also designed the "smoke grenade" (didn't know the exact name when I started) but it now turns out that it's the dm51

Dont use POE as source they started with the DM61 lie.

Look here they jused use the DM51 als smoke even on it stands "Splitter" it means frag. So the question is now which smokegranade also is a fraggranate

[R-CON]azn_chopsticks_boi · 02-09-2008, 02:36 PM

I looked around everywhere and was unable to find any thing

RED · 02-09-2008, 02:47 PM

Ok this is what I've got now: DM51 Frag Grenade (Splittergranate MIT Splittermantel)

Is this the right grenade?^^

[R-CON]azn_chopsticks_boi · 02-09-2008, 03:01 PM

this was all the really info i could find about the DM51

Quote:

The DM 51 is a German dual-purpose hand grenade comprising a high-explosive offensive hand grenade body and a fragmentation jacket which can be placed around it for defensive use. The DM 51 is a plastic hexagonal prism-shaped hand grenade containing compressed nitropenta explosive, the fragmentation jacket is barrel-shaped and contains 6500 steel balls. The explosive grenade can be joined together to form a cluster, or joined end to end to form a Bangalore torpedo for engineering work such as blowing holes in barbed wire fences or paths through mine fields.
