All Lasers fire like the detonator

[Vashon91]

So anyone know how to make it happen, how to make it appear as if the laser rifle/pistol is firing a continuous beam? Also want to change it to where it sets people on fire like the Heat Ray mod. Ive been messing around in Geck and cant get it to work right. Basically trying to turn it into a flashlight with some kick to it

I took a look at the Laser Detonator's stats in the GECK- seems that the continuous beam is similar to the beam from the actual laser weapons, but fired automatically at a rapid pace with basically no spread, and the attack animation is set to "AttackLoop."

 

So yeah, if you wanted to make the laser weapons a continuous beam, just copy the appropriate data from the Laser Detonator (fire rate, automatic setting, attack animation, etc) and edit the other laser weapons accordingly.

Tried that, it sort of didn't work as well.

 

The guy behind this has responded to me and might upload his work to the Nexus. Maybe.

This is good enough. I would play it just for that tracer effect.

 

Think about it: why would you choose laser for their low ass damage? But with continuous firebeam, you can "walk" the line of fire into targets. So that compensate for damage. That is one reason I use flamer, btw, despite its weakass damage.

 

IMPORTANT: the burning effect, while nice, is a bit too overpowered and un-laser-like.
