Mounted Minigun

[ArcaneDesmond]

Sharing My thoughts on this topic: Would it be possible to use the Shoulder Mounted Machine-Gun animation from Fallout New Vegas: Lonesome Road? I'm sure I can't be the only one that misses all those lovely moments of Lonesome Road from the tunnelers to the guns and not to mention the Godzilla sized deathclaw hiding behind a waterfall :) All the games are Bethesda and some modders have been porting some stuff over but so far it's never been anything as the good old days. So perhaps instead of looking at this as a turret feature Shoulder-Mount it maybe? Even if you still want the turret feature perhaps mounting these shoulder guns to a turret base could still work if it was tweaked. Take the fatman for example why carry all those shells around when you could send out a flare and watch the big kaboom? This cut content added back in could bring a whole lot of fun to the game if you could not only use it as a turret but rip it off and set the world on fire.

I proposed a solution a long time ago that was just a custom turret that looked like a mounted mg that, instead of power, required a settler to be assigned to it (with the kneeling welding animation) so it looks like they're holding a handle near the back. Just restrict the turret rotation to about a 90 degree cone and it should look acceptable. It was the simplest solution I could come up with for what is, apparently, a pretty complex problem.

 

 

 

 

LOL, guess it wasn't that long ago, as number of posts go. This is just an old topic.

The mod linked abouve, has a .WIP file... for the Minigun Turret Emplacement, that you can actually get on. So Can someone take it and make a standalone mod, with just the minigun emplacement.

But add this as an alternative turret that you can build instead.

Call them Manned Minigun Emplacement, and UnManned Minigun Emplacement.

Place them Under Defenses, Guard Posts {unmanned} and Turrets {Manned}

And for shits and giggles.

Use this mods files to make the APC fire an actual shell...

And add that as well

Calling them Manned APC Artillery Turret, and UnManned APC Artillery Turret.

Increasing the range on them, and making it to where they fire like the MinuteMan Artillery, for the manned, and the Portable Minuteman artillery gun for the manned version.

Guard Posts {unmanned} and Turrets {Manned}

dm me if you want to throw ideas together.
