Weapons

Overview:

This file implements each of Postman6's excellent flare gun replacement models as disparate weapons, so that they can all be seen in game in one modlist. The Lore Friendly version is set up as a 25mm grenade pistol, and the Vanilla+ version is set up as a 12ga. pistol. The red version is set up to replace the vanilla flare gun normally.


Features:

Scripted integration.

Vanilla balancing.

S6S Perks compatibility.

Each weapon can be individually toggled.


Files are included to set up the vanilla flare gun and 12ga. pistol to use NVAO's animations. The installation instruction regarding deleting NVAO's .json from the Flare Guns page can be disregarded. The file will work without NVAO.


Customization:

The 12ga. pistol can be changed to big guns at any level in the config ini.


Requirements:

xNVSE

JIP LN

Johnny Guitar

ShowOffNVSE

All three files from Flare Guns (ESPLESS) are required.


Installation:

Install and merge all three files from the Flare Guns (ESPLESS) page. Download and installation order does not matter.

Please endorse and vote for the original mod.


Sweet Mod Interactions:

My mods which should not be used with this mod:

This mod is not balanced for use with Vanilla SWEEP.

The balance and integration will be wildly out of sync if this file is used with it. I will be requiring the Vanilla+ model from the original page for inclusion in Full SWEEP as the 12ga. pistol there. I am content with the 25mm pistol in DMT to fill that role in Full SWEEP's case.


Load Order:

Ensure that this file loads after and overwrites the original mod and NVAO in your mod organizer.


Limitations:

While I suspect that the third person issue with the lore friendly model could potentially be resolved by creating a third person/NPC specific model and renaming the nif blocks to match the vanilla flare gun's nif blocks and giving the first person model a unique static entry, I'm not certain that it would fix it, and I don't have the time to attempt it at the moment. If this is accomplished, I will likely require that model for a replacer for DMT's 25mm pistol.


Questions:

One of the models is missing/a red exclamation point!

Installation error. Ensure that you're selecting merge instead of replace when installing each of the three files.
