shooters with custom weapon capabilities?

BRUTICUS(CW)

hey guys, are there any good, recent FPS games that allow you to model your own weapons and put them in game? What about characters?

thanks

counter-strike, unreal tournament 3 and crysis are modable so you can implement custom weapons and character models etc. ut3 is like 20 bucks or something on steam, sometimes drops down to 10.

Half-Life, Counter-Strike, Unreal 3, Killing Floor, Left 4 Dead...

All of the source engine games are moddable, though the engine is older so it's probably not the best for current gen normal mapped stuff.

I'd say go for crysis. The custom weapon capabilities seem decent.

Call of duty as well (cod4 & w@w).

The advantage with source is you can throw in a custom model and play online in servers with it just fine because it only visually changes for you; I'm not sure to what extent that is true in other games

me loves to modify source games..

the engine is not designed to display unrel3/crysis quality materials but the source-engine games are (imo) mostly awesome and you can use your models online

You can have pretty good materials in source anyway

Correct me if I am wrong but I do remember seeing in the source engine options menue (TF2 and HL2) the option to enable HDR lighting. Having this option avaible would require the game to make use of a 32-bit floating decimal point for the HDR render target. So this means that the material system of the source engine has code for and supports shader model 3.0 which is how many of the fancy effects in Unreal and Crysis are acheived. S
