SushiLover Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Hasn't anyone felt the LAER was empty without a scope? I have, and the design should be cylindrical and have the same color and texture theme as the base gun. The scope shouldn't, in my opinion, sit over top (but anchored to the top). The scope should sit to the left of the gun, jutting out diagonally from the anchor. If you feel this is a good idea or should be designed differently from what I say (no arguing though), say something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scope should sit to the left of the gun, jutting out diagonally from the anchor. The La Longue Carabine does that, there might be others, but I don't recall any. Although it may not be necessary to have a model that does that. You might be able to attach it at any angle and it will work through the scope fine. here is a pic of it;http://i1066.photobucket.com/albums/u404/devinlpatterson/LaLongueCarabine_zpsfc247605.jpg Obviously if you wanted to use that, it would be the result of some after market tinkering by an enterprising wastelander. If you feel this is a good idea or should be designed differently from what I say (no arguing though), say something. Personally I think the laser rifle scope fits just fine, and looks like it could have come straight from the factory that way. But it might be a good idea for you to go through the vault wiki, check scopes and decide which one is closest to what you want. Then I can add it for you.

SushiLover Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 Yeah, I imagined it exactly like the trail carbine scope, but rehashed with the LAER mesh, texture, and made a bit bigger overall. Maybe even a custom reticle to go along with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe even a custom reticle to go along with it. I'd suggest you have it the unaltered trail carbine scope (well the offset La Longue Carabine one), that way it looks like some clever wastelander jury rigged it. If you make it the same texture as the LAER it will look like it was produced/manufactured that way and lets face it the two tech levels don't match. They'd make a much more advanced scope, probably with infra-red or lowlight, distance indicators etc. But it's your request and I can make both along with a laser rifle scope (so actually 3 versions) and people can choose which ones they want. Also pick out a custom reticle (any pic will do) and I'll get to work on making it. The scopes themselves I can make right away, the custom reticle I can't say for sure (since I'v never done one), but if I had to guess I'd think it's just a texture with an alpha, so it shouldn't be hard. If your good with that, let me know I have the green light, and I'll start putting them together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiLover Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 You could just take a slightly edited k9000 reticle removing the tint effect and I would be happy. I couldn't care less about some fancy shader, tint, or night vision effect because the original laser rifle didn't have any of those, though I'll say that night vision (with conditional parameters) would be the cherry.

devinpatterson Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I'll say that night vision (with conditional parameters) would be the cherry. Sounds good. I have couple other mods to finish up (or at least do a large part of) when I get home, but I'll start work on it at the earliest opportunity, time permitting.

SushiLover Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Alright then. Hand me the file name when you upload it to the New Vegas Nexus page. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiLover Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 I forgot to mention, before you release the file. Could you do a quick very simple mod for the Brush Gun giving it a trail carbine scope as a weapon mod? No graphical or feature rehashes either, that's all.

devinpatterson Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 re: the brushgun, yeah I would think so. But I'd be really surprised if no one has already done it on Nexus. I did one, but it's NCR/Ranger themed; pic; http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/images/40155-2-1297171442.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiLover Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 (edited) Well be surprised then, because you're the only one who did it. :) Other than in WME. Side question: I'm new to this, how do I do that caption effect where you take someone's quote and comment on it?
