Blue-Shift Style Shotgun 2-round Burst

Description
The secondary fire on Half-Life's SPAS-12 never made any sense mechanically because the developers mistook the magazine tube as a "second barrel" and thus the alternate fire is to use "both barrels". The HD Pack rectified this with an alternative sound which portrayed the attack as a rapid two-round burst instead. This mod aims to do the same for Black Mesa.

Can/Could we get some Steam Workshop Add-On Mods that convert this shotgun into the Combat Shotguns from DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal, with Charged-Burst/Full-Auto and Explosive Shot/Sticky Bomb Attachment Add-On Mods? If so, then that would/will definitely be pretty damn cool as fuck.

im kinda suprised no one has made a semi auto reanimation for the stockless spas 12s as that would explain the secondary fire mode as just a semi auto double tap with alot of recoil since its a stockless magnum 12 gauge shotgun after all ...

I haven't played blue shift in a bit and I only just noticed that they fixed that. Neat

Honestly, I have always preferred to think of the secondary fire mode for Half-Life's Franchi SPAS-12 Combat Shotgun (which is actually a dual-mode shotgun, adjustable from being manual pump-action to semi-automatic operation and fire mode, as a matter of fact) as just a very quick 2-round burst from only one barrel, breech, and muzzle with only one magazine tube, instead of firing 2 rounds from 2 separate barrels, breeches, and muzzles with no magazine tube.

@Desperado @Kodabear Looks like the mistake was on my end, I apologize. It should work now.

@Kodabear They were supposed to have fixed the workshop not working, but I guess it's still broken. Well, here's what you can do then:

Go to

Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\362890\2459436803

and copy the 'shotgun_secondary_rapid.vpk' to

Steam\steamapps\common\Black Mesa\bms\custom

This way the game will load it from the directory instead of from the workshop. It should work this way.
