[Slow WIP] - Weapon Modification Expansion (Not WMX) for Hunting Rifle.

[vTemporalZEROv]

I am working on - on free time and when I have the motivation to - a mod that allows further customization of the hunting rifle.

 

In vanilla it only has 3 attachments -

---Custom action

---Scope

---Extended mags (or whatever)

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Through the crafting menu at a workbench, I am now allowing it to be further upgraded, the way it works is there is a recipe for a new hunting rifle dubbed "Hunting Rifle T1", and the ingredients for the weapon are a hunting rifle with ALL attachment mods for it, that is the only way to craft it, and when crafted it will have the same model as a fully modded hunting rifle, but it is a totally different gun - with the same stats as an upgraded hunting rifle.

 

This will allow it to have an additional 3 mods added to it (since it is an unmodded, different gun that is different than a fully modded hunting rifle)

 

There is 3 steps to upgrading each tier of the rifle.

 

1. If needed, craft the parts for the gun.

2. Get the parts and the gun needed.

3. Craft it and repeat.

 

So far I have 4 tiers for the hunting rifle through this mod:

 

Vanilla - Vanilla mods.

T1 - External and internal framework modifications. (for future mods added) - These frames must be crafted separately. Also allows 3 more mods to be added.

 

T2 - Hunting rifle with the modded frames/mods AND vanilla mods.

 

T3 - Hunting rifle with the mods from T1, T2, AND vanilla.

 

For a total of 12 mods instead of 3.

 

I am looking for ideas of mods for the rifle, I chose the hunting rifle cause it is a common favorite weapon in the Fallout games for players. Myself included, just look at it.. its gorgeous.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

MODS I ALREADY HAVE PLANNED OR ADDED:

1. Silencer

2. Sighting module - instead of a scope, for players that don't like the scope. Going to be like upgraded ironsights or something.

3. Heavy barrel - Increased damage by a little bit.

4. Semi-Auto chamber - This seems cool to me, rather than bolt action, it is slow shooting semi auto.

5. Lethal Magazine - Increases the ammo in the mag from 10 to 20.

6. Alloy Base - Increases durability by 100% (Already has low durability on purpose)

7. Carbon Mesh Parts - Decreases weight by a decent amount.

 

I need help for 2 more, wiling to change my already chosen mods for it.

 

Also, looking for opinions, if this is successful, I am gonna work on a leather armor mod like this afterwards.

 

ALL MODS THAT MODIFY THE LOOKS WILL HAVE CUSTOM MODELS FOR THEM AS WELL.
