Model Name : Zeke/Ezekiel Description : "The avenging messenger of God" Author : Greg "kewtZombie" Szucs & Mime Well, to start with , I've downloaded plenty of Models and skins, and almost every one of them has an obsession with the Railgun. Zeke is certainly no exception to the rule, as I found out the first time I played against him. The model has been made as a preview to the upcoming "Follow the Zombie" Mod, which the author says will be released in the near future. The Model contains 2 bots; Zeke & Ezekiel (the dark Angel). Ezekiel is by far the better bot, as it seems to have a very good bot file. The general outlook of the model (as you will see from the screenshots), is of an angel with wings and a halo. The cross in the middle with a light coming out of it is nice touch. The face though, could have been better, because it has some sort of mask wrapped around it, and makes the bot look more like Zorro, than the "avenging messenger of God"
This Model also contains ctf support and ctf skins, although the skins themselves posed a serious recognition problem to me. Because the angel's wings are always blue in colour, you sometimes get confused , specially if you've got Zeke on both teams.
Another good thing about this Model is that its got new sounds, and the taunt itself is "message" that you should hear. Sometimes though, I heard some sounds from Sarge, instead of Zeke, and maybe that's something the author overlooked .
The main build of the model though, in my opinion could have been better; for example the wings could have been placed higher up than they already are, and the halo, could have been at the back of the head instead of over it. Because of this, a Zeke running around is not exactly a pretty sight. Most of the shaders and textures are already found on Quake 3's pak1.pk3 file.
The author promises a lot in his upcoming Mod, but I guess only time will tell. All in all the Model itself is a very good one, mainly because of the new sounds, good ctf support and most importantly an excellent bot file. Like I said, you'd better watch your back if he gets the Railgun.
