Description
PLEASE INSTALL THE MAIN SHARED PACK IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY, IT REQUIRES IT ---> https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=3258299652

What on earth is this?
This addon adds a feature that was cut in one of the github files, so now, stacking sights and adding whatever you want on top! Not to mention that you an make any optic / reflex / scope have canted sights! Including EFT! It's no longer restricted!

Wow! How do I find these fantastic attachments?
Easy! Press the context button (usually c) and then go to optics, and you will find a folder that says extra, then do whatever you want!

This addon is fantastic! Are you able to add any other features?
The only thing I can do right now is change the colour for the laser since I am very new to coding so I'm not taking any bug fixes or suggestions. Its a miracle that I managed to even release this.

So now what?
Have fun! If there's any issues with the addon, please put it in the comments. I will not be able to fix anything that is outside the extra folder.

(Different coloured laser might come later...)

Ignore the warning, there are files conflicting but everything is working as intended.

My modified version has a file which has the same name as the one in the original.
Usually, this is not good, as other files (from the original shared pack) has been coded to rely on the original file which makes everything work.
When you make a different file with the same name and file path, the game makes that new file top priority, and usually that isn't good because it most likely has different codes from the original, which would break some parts of the original shared pack, hence why Gmod alerts you about it so someone could send the issue to the mod author to fix.

Gmod thinks that my mod (which has the same name) is going to break the original shared pack because they both have a file which is located in the same path with the same name, but my version has been coded for ARC9, so it's not going to break the original mod anyway shape or form.

I have virtually no experience in coding in lua, this mod was from a version of the MW19 pack all the way back in 2023 from github. When it finally made it to the workshop, it was missing a feature from the github version which I have on my pc, so I just tweaked a tiny amount of stuff to make it work with the current version. I am not a programmer but this is what I was thinking when going though trial and error.

I don't know what reason??

No I can't because have no experience on That :( like GLua also GLua is hard to learn because it request so many mathematics. But some of them think isn't hard and some of them said that is the most easiest programming languages? But I don't think so .

@小卡齐娜3095 This mod has a file named mw19_shared_optics_misc.lua which is the same name of another file which can be found in the original pack. This makes gmod think that this is going to make the original mod broken since this mod overrides the original. Nothing is broken and I'm not going to go though hundreds of files just to remove a false flag, feel free to extract and do it yourself if it really bothers you.

Why it conflict by the original MW19 Shared Pack???
Tank  [author] 29 Jan @ 6:34pm 
@urderpyawtter It should be next to the optics folder in the weapon modification menu

I don't see a folder or anything

@saltii This addon replaces mw19_shared_optics_misc.lua with a older version when it was on github, nothing is broken, Try restarting your game and tell me if there is still a problem

Addon '>[ARC9] Modern Warfare 2019 Shared Pack' probably conflicts with addon '[ARC9] MW19 Shared Extra' due to both having the following files:

lua/arc9/common/attachments_bulk/mw19_shared_optics_misc.lua

any help would be appreciated, thank you!
