Modify the M14's Damage

[Honeybun_HyvalTTV]

Can someone do that for me very quickly? It perpetually annoys me that the M14 is such a low-damage weapon when it should realistically have much better damage than most of the other weapons considered above it.

I'd do it myself, but I don't have Unity tools with which to use FGW's mod kit

[StoleMyCoconut]

Open the game folder
Search for native open table
Open weapons. Something

Get notepad++
Find the ingame name of the m14
Under the n14 there should be a parameter called damage.
Modify that to your liking

...Oh.

...thank you. I didn't know we could do that that way.

not that it tmatters; but:
I don't think that " mk-14" and " vt-14" are NOT supposed to be m-14 BR
Aside from NOT being battle rifles;
too small, some wrong fixtures, don't even look like the civilian semi-auto version for comp.
much less the m-14 marine DMR.

I believe what you're looking at is the Ruger mini-14/ "Mini Thirty"
- which if it's the mini-30 explains the ammo.
if you image search the mini 14 you'll see versions that look suspiciously similar to both.

Expalins why it;s so early-game , like the sks crabine.
Can i ask what you did with them in your mini-mod?

If it were the Mini-14 it would look fairly different. It doesn't have a covered op-rod like the Mini does, it has the M14-style handguard, and its magazine is straight-- which the Mini-30's magazine is not.

All I did was I increase damage and accuracy to better match the other .308 rifles.

if it was ANYTHING it would look different- that's an old unity-store asset; why it's not quite right.

I'm pretty sure it ( the unity asset model) was SUPPOSED to be this however--
not *quite* an m-14
it's still too small, lacks the end-barreling vents; etc.

- which iirc is also semi-auto

All I did was I increase damage and accuracy to better match the other .308 rifles.

well, there's only ONE .308 rifle - and thats only some STeyr models-
you know nato 7.62 isn't *quite* .308, even if you can shove it through your gun:
neither ammo is in game.
nto sure what AWR is to be- it doesn't look like the american wilderness rifle ;)
and the SV-98 uses 76R...

Not sure WHY they took RIFLE ammo out of game,
I was going by it using 7.62 intermediate ammo like the other two early 'carbines' -

Anyway- aside from all that what did you do with the - also slightly off vt-14 that looks suspiciously like someone messed up a model from ruger's mini-14 homepage?

did you keep that as an intermediate-ammo early-game carbine?
( sorry - i call all the sk-likes 'carbines' like the m-1, hopefully you knew what i meant )

at any rate, they sure didn't make it a BR or the marine DMR.

..also- rifle silencers. Just btw. - from another thread. ;)

I don't think any of the weapons are perfectly to scale, honestly. And if it were an M1A it would still be either 7.62 NATO or .308 anyway. Also, the 'end barrel vents' are a flash hider.

Why bring up the AWR? That uses .308 as well.

Also, no, the VT-14 is clearly a Saiga semiauto rifle. That's a sporting rifle that... well, Saiga makes.

And, what about the rifle silencers?




Also yeah, I didn't touch the VT-14. Just the M14 (or M1A if you prefer) because I like the rifle and wanted to use it like the late-game rifle as I feel it deserves to be.

I know, as I said, these are old unity stroe assets- *most* of them- had a list last time i was playing and modding. This si why so many look "off" or have been assigned to 'off' weapons or changed what weapon they were assigned to. Remember the Karbiner-98?

Also, the 'end barrel vents' are a flash hider.

They do this - and stabilizing the shot- by directional *venting*, which is why it's often discussed in videos like 'forgotten weapons' for those of us who haven't had the joy of owning one ourselves.

Why bring up the AWR? That uses .308 as well.

Because - as I said, that's NOT what an AWR looks like - the only AWR i know is the "american wilderness rifle" ( which is primarily .30-.06, isn't it? )

i remember when that in-game asset was the "Type79"
https://freeman.fandom.com/wiki/Weapons#comm-179

Also, no, the VT-14 is clearly a Saiga semiauto rifle. That's a sporting rifle that... well, Saiga makes.

For one, no:
SAIGA are a family of rifles *MANUFACTURED* by Kalsihnakov.. and named after antelopes.
I'd say it looks like a *cross* between the colors of the page mentioned, and the "above barrle" body of the Saiga-
and i suspect someone made looking at some 'airsoft' reproduction when they made the model -
The vt-14 was *previously* the "KA-13" in FGW versions ( more or less )...

so aside from using "AWR" for the removed "type79"; models that aren't *quite* right-
confusing civilain ammo with Nato7.62
and thinking Saiga is a manufacturer....

What I actually ASKED what you did YOU do with the Vt-14?
Just leave it?

...IF you don't get the rifle silencer joke, or *why* the russians made a sub-sonic munition for the Va-Val & Vintorez, etc.. that's ok.

[Honeybun_HyvalTTV]

...OK look, man, let me just direct you to IMFDB.

[Honeybun_HyvalTTV]

Also yes, my mistake, I meant Saiga is a family of rifles, not a company.

Actually - that's *very* useful- you can see where I thought the "coral" was supposed to be the K7 - they look pretty similar-
and looks like they came to the same conclusion m1a "ish" - ( tho I've been shown Norinco knock off s that are CALLED m14 but are no battle rifle... i suspect same reason you didn't make it a BR.. )
( ie: i've only *seen* the Marine DMR m-14, only seen BR m-14 in display, i don't think most people were taking that as the actual m-14 Br; im guessing you'd already seen or owned this 'other' m-14 by norinco, but was news to me )

-- and - they identified the "AWR" which i hadn't caught.

So yeah, my apologies if i got snarky about .308 vs nato7.62; and saiga, but; it happens...
I really do appreciate this ( i've sene this site, didn't even think to look re:FGW ) - some of the unity models are no longer in game, some are just off enough, and of course some use ' video game trope ' names ( or pre-'74 ammo - or removing rifle ammo from fgw )...
to be a bit.. head scratching- this is really handy.

No worries at all man ^ouo^

The M14 is actually a BEAST of a rifle, have fired many rounds through an EBR
in the past. Way underrated rifle in this game. I had the FN FAL or SLR as we called
it in Aus as my service rifle. Similar in basic performance better control if used
in full auto(not recommended for either rifle).

[Honeybun_HyvalTTV]

Yeah, see? Exactly!
