FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Hello, fellow humans. As years have passed, the most anticipated weapons pack from the final MW trilogy series has arrived! Obviously, there are always many questions to be asked about not just this pack alone but my Call of Duty journey in Gmod for years.


Does this addon has to do with any existing MW3 weapon packs made by previous modders?
No, they don’t. This is a totally new Modern Warfare 3 weapons pack project solely ported by me. Furthermore, at the moment there are no complete sets of TFA-based MW3 weapon packs, which is actually the reason why I got into porting this trilogy weapon packs in the first place.


Why are you releasing this MW3 weapons pack today? Are you aware that there are already existing packs from TFA and competitive bases from M9K and ArcCW?
I only release addons that will offer new features not seen before amongst TFA-supported addons in order to deliver a message that nothing is impossible to achieve the dreams of game scripting and design in sandbox games like Garry’s Mod and modders can learn new revolutionary things that will be useful to port in future. Another thing to take note is that there are no possible means for competition with other weapon bases. Each weapon bases, be it M9K, CW 2.0, TFA, or ArcCW, have its own unique features. I have been a long time TFA modder since my opinion is that they have one of most stable weapon base. This doesn't however mean other bases are trash. That being said, everyone is free to port weapons to their own preferred base as long as they keep their responsibility to ensure their addon is up to date.


Why is the gun bobbing scale so intense? How do I fix this?
The gun bobbing being intense while walking or idling is due to the fact TFA devs have decided to buff the scale to make it more intense by default. My pack is using the old values which are much more balanced and non-exaggerating. To fix this, simply go to Utilities -> TFA SWEP Base Settings -> Viewmodel, set to the following values:
- Enables "Use Animated Viewbob" (For enabling weapon's pan camera)
- Enables "Custom Gun Bob"
- Gun bob intensity = 1.00
- Viewmodel Offset X, Y, Z, FOV = 0.00


Any new features offered from MW3 pack?
Whatever new features that have been introduced from CoD4 and MW2 pack, as well as Magnifier Scope and HAMR Sight!


Why are Masterkey, Akimbo, breakable Riot Shield, and Variable Zoom Scope not available?
We do not have sufficient coding means as the process is difficult to input into TFA base. While we are trying our best to do deep research into the coding process, it would be better if TFA devs can introduce new features regarding attachments like those aforementioned.


Why take 2 years to release MW3 pack after the MW2 pack?
CoD4 and MW2 projects started in early 2018. It took us long time because we needed lots of time to study the codes as well as waiting for new features dedicated to sophisticated attachments involving thermal sight, heartbeat sensor, tactical knife etc. Porting is done properly to ensure it meets almost the exact specification as CoD ingame.


Will you be making MW weapons pack for other bases like CW2.0 or ArcCW?
No, I'm a TFA modder. I do collaborated with CW2.0 and ArcCW modders as well and gave them some advice on how to port them and fixing bugs.


So what now after all three Modern Warfare weapon packs are done? What is your next and future projects?
Modern Warfare 3 is my last Gmod project as I'm planning to say goodbye to this childhood game. I've been playing Garry's Mod since 2012 and those were fun moments to play in a wonderful sandbox game. But the time has passed and we're all opting for better games as we're growing up.

Not to mention I've been busy with other game projects and events these recent years, and many of my Gmod friends are no longer involved any longer here.

So it's time for me to say goodbye not just to Call of Duty projects but also Gmod overall. I hope that whoever wants to carry the torch, feel free to do so by bringing a revolutionary ideas to the Gmod community of its next generation.

Thank you everyone who supported me throughout these years, and wish everyone good luck with your future journey!

Perks are not available as these are just weapon packs.

Same thing as well. Not doing those. You are free to do your own perk however as you want.

Hello Mr. ak47toh! Can you make a weapon pack from Call of Duty: World at War and Black Ops series?
