How to PROPERLY FIX this addon.
this was a fix for another ARCCW addon but it seems to have fixed this one too.

First off, let me give you all some context.

You should all know that ARCCW is an In-Dev (still being developed) addon, and therefore that addon is prone to update, which sounds great in paper, but the latest update overhauled the attachment mechanism, adding more slots and changing/replacing/modifying the old ones, which sounds great at first, BUT sadly this was an entire attachment overhaul , therefore breaking most of the good ol' addons that are branches of ARCCW and require it as a dependency, and one of said mods that got affected was the good ol' FA:S2 in it's original release, and the dev of that one old ARCCW branch confirmed there that he abandoned that addon. (In fact it's been broken for almost 2 years already but GMod players don't know how to read.

TL;DR - ARCCW Updated again, and broke original FA:S2 to it's entirety.

Go unsub from that addon, it simply doesn't work properly anymore.

So what's the fix then?

FIRST OFF; DISCLAIMER

THIS WILL NOT FIX EVERY SINGLE ATTACHMENT but most of them should work properly, haven't really tested it other than with the universal attachments.

Subscribe to this version of FA:S2 (It's a beta! And it's even more recent than the old one, and it seems to be rather stable): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2274508982

Subscribe to the Re-upload of FA:S1 (I am more than sure that we need the reanimated edition and this is not the reanimated edition so i guess it won't really fix everything? but also it did to some extension even though some attachments are pretty much just gone? but oh well, beggars can't be choosers.): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2795112951

Then unsubscribe and subscribe again from THIS ONE addon (the one you're reading me on, this one, the one from this discussion kiddo!).

and that should do it!

TBH, i am more than sure that the experience will be affected, as i think that original FA:S2 had just more content than this beta one, but for a quick fix, it's better than nothing. That and i am almost 90% sure that not all attachments work with this fix, but once again, it's better than nothing.

[EDIT] Forgot to mention, this fix also seems to work for every single ARCCW addon i'm using, and unsubbing and resubbing basically puts the actual addon in the top of mod order, so it kinda refreshes the files to have more priority, i guess? idk Steam mods work in mysterious ways.
