I hate to be picky, but it's muzzle. Not mussle.
That aside, you're right. The muzzle flash should be parallel to the barrel.

I nominate that "picture of teh year"
And yeah, if they were level, they would look so much better.
(Psst, anyone know where its located it the code?)

How about a new 3rd person muzzle flash entirly, this one seems to use lighting and animations and texturing like crazy! I would like to see a transparent white one, that is *smaller* than my torso. The #rd person muzzle flashes for the pistols would look better [and more real] if it where placed infront of primarys, too.
i always thought that on a m16 the flash was like 5 spikes coming out of the flash hider, and that the different flash hiders made a different flash, i have never really payed attention to anything but MY(IRL) 870's blast and it's tremendous.
My ribs hurt.
(Yes. The muzzle flashes are a bit flamethrower-ish.
Smaller ones would be a good idea.)

this might be another one of those engine-limitations ...
I think the real problem is the fact that where your 'playermodel' aims isn't were you are aiming.
I've seen it in regular UT too. I suggest you look at anyone firing the pulse gun at targets below or above them (with the alternative firemode this is really easy to see).

I see what you are getting at.
no, even when the model(and player) is aiming straight ahead it does this.

Nonetheless, it would be exceedingly good if the INF team could find a way to make the "playermodels" aim EXACTLY where the player is actually aiming...
And we should be able to see ourselves when we look down too, if possible.
EDIT: ...and you can shoot yourself in the foot.
Imagine the possibilities.

With M16, you can only see muzzle flash in darkness, even with 14.5" barrel, and when you do see it, it's 6 little spikes around the flash suppressor, not a huge blowtorch. 14.5" barrel produces more flash and bang than 20.5", but still very little.
Same with a G3 or MG3 or P1. I tried several times at the shooting range to see the muzzle flash (both with me firing and "third person"), but at best I all I saw was smoke coming out the muzzle. Also the grass was blown over, of course (firing prone).
LOL, this is something I never noticed happening... must be the almost complete lack of grass around where I'm stationed
man, muzzle flash is so inconsequential it's not even funny... firing an m-16 at night in pretty much total darkness produces (whaddaya know) NO DISCERNABLE MUZZLE FLASH... firing an FN MAG at night in almost total darkness produces almost zero flash... a couple of barely discernable sparks, maybe, but nothing more...
and @the pic:
that cracked me the fork up!

i second the nomination... now let the voting begin...
What is even more 'funny' is the way your character shoots at the floor if he's doing the 'do nothing'-animation while you fire ...
You can see this on the firingrange in front of one of the mirrors.
Maybe those 'do nothing'-animations should be removed and used as 'taunt'-animation(s) instead ?
