LW2Mercenary Plasma Weapons

Description
This mod adds a new set of weapons to LW2, at the moment they have the exact same stats and prices as the Long War 2 plasma weapons. For the vanilla version of this mod, go here:

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=707170261

Features:

Mercenary Plasma Rifle and attachments.
Mercenary Plasma Pistol.
Mercenary Plasma Shotgun and attachments.
Mercenary Plasma Cannon and attacments.
Mercenary Plasma Sniper and attachments.
Mercenary Plasma Sword.
Mercenary Plasma Spark Gun and attachments and new weapon fire animation.
Mercenary Plasma SMG and attachments and new weapon fire animation.
Modified FX and sound effects.
UI icons and stuff.
Same stats as the Long War 2 plasma weapons.
Configurable stats and prices.
Russian translations by resonansER.
German translations by Zyrrashijn.
Spanish translations by Fritz125.

How to acquire:

These weapons have the same research requirements as the Long War 2 plasma weapons, and the same cost in the engineering bay.
They do not replace the Long War 2 plasma weapons.

How to configure stats:

Stats are configurable in XcomMercPlasmaWeapons.ini, XcomLW_InfiltrationSettings.ini, AND XcomLW_Overhaul.ini
Search for the mod under "\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\"

Spark Gun Attachments:

By default the Spark Gun has 0 possible attachments, the number of attachments is now configurable in the XcomLW_Overhaul.ini like with the other weapons. If for some reason changing the number
of attachments on XcomLW_Overhaul.ini doesn't work, then change them in XcomMercPlasmaWeapons.ini

To do list:

At the moment i haven't had a chance to play much LW2, so i'm not sure how stuff works yet, however in the future i plan to update the mod to make the merc plasma weapons have their own stats,
and research.

Known issues:

The fire animation for the SMG might be a bit glitchy on female soldiers, nothing big, the hand might just clip a bit through the foregrip.
The soldier's hand clips through the smg while on the Avenger.

Please post any bugs or glitches and/or concerns in the comments below.

Compatibility:

This mod should be compatible with most things that are also compatible with LW2.

Permissions:

You're free to use any of the assets and whatever else there is in this mod as long as you give credit.

Nice! Have you considered placing a link to 'Long war 2 version' on the main mod?

@Wolfmouse (ex Wade Davis ;-) )
No need to apologize, no criticism on my part :-)
I hope the mod that I suggested will satisfy your expectations

Ah, I saw that but I assumed it wouldn't have the SMG since it wasn't in vanilla. Apologies, I'm going to go download that right now.

I know LWotC isn't a thing (and likely never will be) but there is a LW2 Classes and Perks mod for WotC (by Favid) that works really well... Would you consider porting this to WotC for use with that mod? I really dislike the vanilla plasma weapons...

are the SFX for the firing of these weapons more satisfying than the vanilla version?
dogtarget 11 Mar, 2018 @ 12:55am 
Actually, as I'm looking though the .ini, I see what looks like vanilla range stats for the cannon. In long war 2 there are penalties for being too close.
dogtarget 11 Mar, 2018 @ 12:35am 
I'm in game now; the smg and rifle elerium crystal cost is double what it is in lw2.

the weapon stats are the same as the vanilla weapons. But they can be configured in the ini, as stated in the description.
