Thank you heaps for your hard work! This mod is fantastic!

may I use your mod for a potential mod I want to make?

I believe this mod changes shotguns from firing 3 moderately-strong pellets to 8 weak ones? I wonder how this affects the balance. I imagine it makes them worse against armor but ups their reliability a bit.

Did you ever complete the updates?

Is this compatible with mods that don't add anything new and just retexture vanilla weapons?

considering last update was 2018 it is safe to say it has died. possibly due Xenonauts 2 incoming sometimes in future since 2018

Has this project died? :/

Incompatible with Xenonauts X-pansion Pack: game crashes when pressing L with a vehilcle selected, making it impossible to use secondary fire.

I agree that the MG tracer is a bit strong, otherwise great stuff

Siirenias, thanks man! I'm hoping to get an update out soon, I've been busy these past few months

Thank you for all the effort, this looks really great. I look forward to the next updates!

Marasmusine, no problem, the tracer has always kind of bothered me honestly, so I'll try what you said. I see what you mean too, I just had to pellets so large so that they would be visible, so the speed increase doesn't sound like a bad idea. Thanks for the suggestions!

Thanks for replying Ken. My suggetions would be to, if possible, have the tracer line have more of a "tip" with a thinner tapering line, maybe with a near-white core (if you do an image search for "machine gun tracer" you'll see what I mean), as its bar-like shape is why I mistook it for a laser beam.
Perhaps the shotgun projectile could look more granular? The slower speed also gave it that "thrown stone" feel, although I understand that varied speeds are one of the points of the mod, maybe it's a bit too slow.
Anyway, just suggestions, thanks.

Marasmusine, I realize the problem with the laser shotgun I'm trying to fix it. The machine gun fires tracers, like how a machine gun would irl, tracers have a charge in them so they are visible when they are fired. The ballistic shotgun fires buckshot, I guess they could look like stones too

The laser shotgun's beams come from off-screen instead of from the gun. The ballistic machinegun looked like it was firing red laser beams. The ballistic shotgun looked like the character was throwing stones.

Found the issue, if you were not using all of the supported mods only Ballistic projectiles were changed. This mod will still support mods, you just need to do a little bit of work. Check the description and the new guide for more details

This is the only thing I've added to Xenonauts in a long while and it looks like the Xenopedia entry for Lasers has... dissapeared?
I noticed in the changelog it says "Fixed Xenopedia images" so I thought it was relevant.

Weird, I think I know what is causing error, I will have a look at it in the morning!

Armoured Assault ¬ No, in Progress
:(

Ballstics work, but lasers don't

I installed the Lite version and that one's Lasers seem to work like you intended to.
I have no idea what could be causing this version to not work properly (I got no other mods that affect weaponry in any way and Projectile Overhaul is top priority).

Great mod btw, this is the kind of subtle details that can really make a difference. :)

They are supposed to, I'll check it out

Are Laser weapons supposed to fire actual beams like in the mod picture?
Because i still have the recolored bullets-like projectiles from vainilla (however, ballistic weapons did change visually.)

Nikitian, just updated it, should be working now!

Nikitian, thank you for pointing that out! I'll try to fix it as soon as possible

Found a small bug: The image for Laser Weaponry is missing in Xenopedia. It appears that the laserweapons2.jpg has an incorrect file extension (actually should be .png); changing the extension appears to fix the bug. Hope that helps!

Casaubon, planning to work on it this week!

waiting for the Khall´s carbines & shotguns support ;)

Projectile Overhaul 2 has been released! Support for all modded weapons all within this mod! Make sure to unsubscribe from Projectile Overhaul Soviet Edition

@Ybot oh? What's your point exactly?

lol if you fired something big enough to be seen with the naked eye at any speed approaching just 50% of the speed of light you'd wipe out the entire solar system.

Sounds awesome. On the side note seems like Long War 2 developers borrowed almost all designs, up to weapon's art from Xenonauts.

Caliell, that's what I have planned, just trying to work out a few bugs

Dundee, alright try asking at the forums if that still doesnt work dont worry I'm working on a version that doesn't require community

Lasers should be changed to instantaneous beams to be more realistic versions of laser weapons.

I've tried man, it isnt popping up.

Dundee, You should be able to find it under the beta tab after you click properties, if not ry asking at the forums. If you still can't get it to work I'm working on relasing a version of this that is not dependant on community edition

I cant access the community edition, any ideas why?

The files for the tracer ammo are fixed now, thanks for letting me know!

asm987 No, not all. I appreciated the feed back

Charon Thanks! I'll take a look at it right away

Thanks for taking my idea. Hope you weren't offended by my previous reply. It's not that I don't appreciate your work. You are doing great, mate

you might want to check the projectiles/tracer/tracer_e, the png is named differently.

Version 1.0.5 is now out!

Please update to the new version and refer to the change notes!

asm987 I like your idea and I'll probably implement it for the time being since I am experimenting with something

This is science fiction, not real life. Besides, not that I'd know, but modding is actually kinda hard.

If you want to make it more plausible, you should make every laser weapon insta-hit not making its "projectile"(which is not a correct term) visible like as if it's just a faster bullet.
