Finally, the heresy has been redeemed.

@Doc That's very cool! Incredible modding guide you wrote up. Always wonderful to see more modders for this game and that guide is incredibly in-depth. Cheers, dude!

First, I want to say that this is one of my favorite mods! So simple, but such an improvement. No wonder it has a mid-sized town's worth of subscribers. :)

I've figured out how to change individual units' weapon colors (such as if you wanted to just change the Guardsmen and nobody else). It's not as simple or elegant as Pilgrim's work, but it's more targeted. I've detailed how you do it in my modding guide:

Non Heretical lasguns for the win!

Could you make another mod like this to make them blue like the Tanith 1st?
The Holy Pilgrim  [author] 10 Jul, 2024 @ 11:22pm 
the latter

Turns out neither of those has lasguns/lascannons as their weapons. As far as I can tell, all units that use lasweapons came out before you made this mod. Does it apply to each individual unit, or does it change something in the code that makes all lasweapons red?
The Holy Pilgrim  [author] 6 Jul, 2024 @ 5:26am 
It should apply to them, yeah

I'll have to double-check
jeff.s.wiggins 5 Jul, 2024 @ 11:50pm 
Does this mod apply to units released after 2020 such as the Devil Dog and Rogal Dorn tank? I haven't played as the Guard yet, and wanted to know if they got the color or not

Mandatory mod for anyone playing guardsman
TRUEvector 26 May, 2024 @ 5:06pm 
No more piss-lasers, yay! Thanks!

Playing this game without this mod is insane.
Honorable Discharge 1 Dec, 2023 @ 12:00pm 
This is the best mod.
pabloaram2011 1 Apr, 2023 @ 10:01am 
Can this affect the tier 4 infantry?? or there is another mod for that??

Nice. Just bought the game and started as the guard and was like whats this green crap they be shootin. Cannon or not I'm used to red lasgun fire from the multitude of DoW games.

A must have mod after playing Darktide and returning to this game.
Amileo 16 Oct, 2022 @ 9:49am 
Booted this game up because I'm taking a break from Darktide beta so not to spoil myself.

Queue up my guardy boiz.

"The hell heresy is this yellow flash light!?"

Installed this mod 11/10 my guardy boiz got their proper lasgun lights.

red beam is a canon now... just look at the latest official CGI animations by GW....

Red makes sense. Red wavelength carries more thermal energy. Red goes faster. Red is good.
The Wriggler 29 Jul, 2021 @ 10:38pm 
Even if not 100% accurate, it does add some appreciated variation. Now that everything isn't just yellow or blue half the time, it's much more pleasing to the eye
The Holy Pilgrim  [author] 25 Jul, 2021 @ 6:29pm 
@plague of Frog eh, grew up on Dawn of War which had red lasguns. To me, that's what I like to see. Lore or not, yellow lasguns felt "off".
Plague of Frog 25 Jul, 2021 @ 4:16pm 
You do know that the in lore lasgun color is not red and is what the normal game has
Harland 13 Jul, 2021 @ 9:25am 
A must have mod. Something so simple really adds to the visuals of the experience

I've wanting this for so long, thanks!

To everyone asking for more changes, you can do them yourself with a text editor and basic image editor. Just take a look at the mod folder and you'll see what The Holy Pilgrim did, it's pretty easy and I've made mods for all the colors of the rainbow for all sorts of weapons effects thanks to this mod!
Julietta 16 Mar, 2021 @ 4:17am 
waw ! amazing
Idlemind 7 Jan, 2021 @ 3:25pm 
This is awesome now make every units shooty zap unique :steamhappy:
~HaY~ 30 Nov, 2020 @ 1:39pm 
Thanks mate!
The Holy Pilgrim  [author] 30 Nov, 2020 @ 12:57pm 
@~HaY~ Nope! You should be able to join them, no problem.

I'm able to use it with folks that don't have it, so you should be good.
~HaY~ 30 Nov, 2020 @ 10:52am 
Question - Will this mod prevent me from joinning games that does not have red lasers if i play multiplayer?

Thanks for the effort btw!
RazerTooth 13 Nov, 2020 @ 2:40am 
Thanks alot for the small but atmosphere improving change.
glythe 28 Sep, 2020 @ 4:43pm 
Is it really hot though? Could you change that description to "lukewarm"
Khoran Gutsplitter 15 Aug, 2020 @ 6:54am 
Now it would be much appreciated if someone could make a mod that makes multi-meltas shoot a blue/purple coloured beam as seen in DoW 2.
Pokemastuh 14 Aug, 2020 @ 11:15am 
Nice, consistent muzzle flashes! :admech:
