Idea of this topic is pretty similar to glamour shots/skins/ funny pics topic.
Post pictures and/or descriptions of modified or custom weapons/units/vehicles made for BF2.
Example:
Shield Orb:

Projects defensive shield that blocks lasar fire. No other weaponry. Used by Imperial and CIS engineers.

First of all, Great idea! (for the topic that is)
And the shield orb is awesome, I have some questions though.
Once you deploy it, can you leave the shield?
Can other people enter it?
and Does the turret still fire?

Caleb 1117: First of all, that thing is far from perfect.
As far as I can tell it needs a weapon as well as a shield, otherwise it only switches the shield on when an enemy gets really really close. Other problem with the rotten thing is it keeps turning the shield on and off.
Once you deploy it, you and other people can enter or leave as you wish. I would post the odfs for it for other people to use, but there's a lot of 'em and as I said, it's far from perfect right now.

Perhaps arm it with a weapon that fires one shot, with one ammo?
The one shot would turn it on, and perhaps it would then stay on.

Oh! i got it working now. Apparently having a shield odf named "Shield" makes the game crash. who'd thought that...

It was most likely something else. .Odf names shouldn't matter a lick.

the force fire is my favorite , looks nice.
But is Yoda the right one for a fire ? A Sith would be better

Mutedrancor is correct, it's not Yoda. It's Yaddle. And that's just the map I use to test all my new weapons, ODF's, skins, models, etc. I assigned it to a random hero, lol.
Something I noticed-you both have the same avatar and number of posts

As I remember there was a "Glamour Units" thread, but was locked due to a bump.
I still would like to keep this topic though

The arm looks a bit cartoony, it needs some shadow or detail.
Nice guns
