Well if your gona contact them yourself anyways, you might as well simply just ask them nicely for it ;)
It would be a lot simpler for all if they did, since it’s there mod you want a patch for anyways. =D

Okay, just tested it. Vanilla weapons appear to have no recoil, which is good. That mod automatically solves the problem for any machinima makers using solely vanilla weapons, or use vanilla weapons at all. I don't see any obvious issues with the no recoil mod in testing.

However, it does seem like the weapons that NorthyPark and Doctor Octaganapus made have independent recoil separate from the vanilla recoil values. So yeah, your suggestion that a no recoil patch for those mods would likely be correct.

I don't know how likely either of them are to respond to Steam messages or comments, but I know that Doctor Octaganapus is on the official Keen Software House Discord, if you'd like for me to start messaging him and seeing if he can get Northy in on the conversation as well.

Forgot one of the weapons in that list, the Kriss Vector Submachine Gun is also in use. About to test recoil mod.

Here is the link to the collection of weapons that they have updated to work with Warfare 1. Because I know that this might not be an easy task, and that you may have to talk with NorthyPark and Doctor Octaganapus, the only weapons I'm actually using are the following:

M1014 Shotgun
M92G Beretta Elite 2 Pistol
Remington 870 Tactical Shotgun
Barrett M107A1
VHS Bullpup Rifle Version 4.0
M60E3
IWI Tavor TAR-21 Version 2.0

I'll go ahead and test if the Vanilla one you've created will cancel out the recoil of any of these weapons, and I'll get back to you real quick with the results.

Hmm I do not know this mod, I have made a quick one for vanilla and that’s working fine.

I suspect a no recoil patch ‘can’ be made for the other mod tho. This will unlikely change anything in the other mod. I would need to look at it and check permissions before I make a modification patch however. Feel free to link to that mod here so I can find it. It largely depends on how they have created it.

Zero recoil would be preferable, but honestly, just having it low enough that the weapons in the MAWK weapon pack (specifically the 17 that have had their individual mods updated to work with Warfare 1) won't recoil into the ceiling would be amazing. This said, I don't know if recoil is universal between modded weapons and vanilla weapons, or if something would have to happen with the MAWK weapons between Doctor Octaganapus and NorthyPark.

Interesting, it should be possible.
I’ll give it a go considering how alarmingly popular this one was :) I had plans to release another version as well. I guess you need 100% off, I was also thinking about playing around with a very very low recoil option as well, just so the effect is visible but not so it effects targeting. It may also work for you? I’ll try get something out within a few days for you.

Do you happen to know of a way to turn off recoil entirely? I use the replay tool in SE for a machinima I'm working on, and when I "tell" a recorded character in the game to shoot, the recording of the character ends up shooting into the ceiling because it can't account for recoil.
