Hey all! I've made a patch for this (and Lasers!) to give it Rimlaser beams. Feel free to take a look if you like: Vanilla XCOM Rimlasers

All good! I'll play around with it some more

probably adjusted somewhere in c# or in the xml effects. can't remember and didn't bother fixing or rewriting the code part.

Hey! Love the mod, though I've been tinkering to try to adjust the draw layer of the beams, since they pass under/through things like sandbags and barricades, but I'm having no such luck. Admittedly it's only a cosmetic problem, and even then nothing major, but figured I'd ask; are the beams being drawn on a different layer in the C#?

Updated to 1.6!
Removed offsets for some weapons because 1.6 broke it.

Hey there! Love this mod. She okay for 1.6? Either way many fond memories of lighting up enemies in 1.5, cheers!

updated to 1.5

Hi, just checking to see if there are plans to update this mod? Can't hold back Advent without my plasma weapons :-P

should be a research after charge weapons that unlocks them

Bow do u obtain these is their a research required or where do craft

Thank you

thanks for the reply. sounds good, love ur mods, theyre awesome

Nope, no words. I'm not feeling like making art for anything

any word on the alien pack?

Yeah, i'll make an alien pack someday.
Main concern is the art for the weapons, i kinda suck at it and im looking for an artist who's willing to make some.

Can we get the Psi Repeater that the avatar's use as well as other alien weapons?

aaand the last one. much thx. <3 now i have to figure out how i can make a translation for me *G

Added sounds for charging (aiming) the weapons.

Added Uranium Phase-Cannon (Plasma heavy autocannon)

thanks!

in Draw() method there should be "mat = new def.graphic.MatSingle;" i think
forgot where exactly but there should be a new keyword added somewhere

the one for beam weapons

What framework?
I can send a link to their example mod code ok github

Hey, how can I contact Princess of Evil? I would like to use her framework.

Just thought I'd report a couple things:
1. All the weapons seem to work pretty well with Better Projectile Origin, barring a few:
All sniper rifles origin is too high above the muzzle. Includes Darklance.
All beam weapons origin is too far forward from the muzzle.
All reaper weapons origin is too low below the muzzle.

Not entirely sure if that's something you can tweak or if it'd be on the other mod to adjust.

2. Storm gun should fire a blast of shots like the other shotguns, rather than one beam. That, or a burst of beams with 0 delay or infinite fire rate, so it works like it does in the game. If you read Tygan's research notes, it actually fires alien alloys like the shard gun, not beams of plasma. It's the same tech as the alloy cannon in EU/EW.

Chosen weapons will be out next week probably.

Bolt Caster is in the first pack, with conventional guns. Might add hunter's axe later (or not)

Will there be weapons of the chosen few?

any plans to add the alien hunter weapons like the hunters axe or the bolt caster? very cool mod regardless thank you

Ooh, I like the sound of techprint parts. Maybe corpses can be autopsied at a new worktable for a chance to receive one, or simply a certain percentage of enemies drop one from their inventory when killed?

Lots of ideas!!

Regarding research, it would be possible with enough knowledge of C# modding. Maybe something like a building with progress meter and tagging corpses as autopsied. Or outputting techprint parts, then with enough parts make a whole techprint.
idk i'm not an expert at this.

Armor, races and factions are planned. Not soon, though.

So excited to make an XCOM themed run with these mods. Can't wait to see the other modules! Are you considering making a factions mod to go along with it too, with quests from the game?

Perhaps at some point a races mod to add Sectoids, Faceless, etc. ADVENT could easily be just humans with their distinct armour.

I wonder if there would be a way to mimic the research in the game so you can only research certain things after an autopsy of enough corpses?

i tried to figure out how to make them something like a combination of piercing and burning, but didn't come up with anything, and it will probably require c# coding

Does this guns deal burn/heat damage? Really great design mate!

where is oskar?

I won't ask for Ce patch for this mod. These are very fitting weapons for vanilla and yayo combat.

I waitin for lazors too! :D

laser and mag weapons next~?

Finally, We can use this masterwork weapons toward human enemy too! Thanks a lot!

I got so excited when i saw an xcom mod that for a second i forgot I havent used vanilla xcom guns ,ouside of gatecrasher, at all. All my xcom guys are rocking g36cs and m4s lol

Nice work :)

Or the coil guns from long war, those are so sexy.

Yes yes yesss!! Magnetic weapons too please!
