[ArcCW] Arctic's Customizable Weapons (Base)

"A weapon isn't good or bad, depends on the person who uses it.”
-- Jet Li

You asked for it, you're getting it - the ultimate customizable GMod weapon base, featuring procedural recoil, PiP scopes that finally don't suck or eat your framerate, full NPC support, procedural foregrips, the most extensive customization this side of ACT3, presets, and this time, in first person.

ArcCW is the product of 5 years of learning, dedication, and grit. It is only through those 5 years that I have been able to gather the unique skills needed to produce this addon. It has been in beta for quite a while on my Discord, and through that I've managed to also collect much needed feedback in more than 15 revisions. Finally, I believe it is ready for the public.

ArcCW's features are many and sundry; like my other mods, the best way to find them is simply to experience it for yourself. It has been inspired mainly by Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019), but is not a direct attempt at imitating it. The customization is not as heavy as that of ACT3, but is still far and beyond any other weapon mod on the Workshop or otherwise.

• Universal attachments, able to be placed on any weapon
  
• Universal weapon bashing
  
• Visual belt-fed depleting
  
• Attachments visible in third-person

- TTT support: Use "arccw_enable_customization 0; arccw_ttt_atts 1; arccw_ttt_replace 1" for players to only be able to use the auto-generated weapons they find on the ground.

- Developers - you can find out how to use the mod by decompiling it and reading the contents of the shared.lua file. I highly recommending looking in the ArcCW CS+ pack for examples.

- Neosun is responsible for the art you see plastered over this page, and you can also find a pack of the art assets and style guides used to make the addon page art for ArcCW here.[drive.google.com] You can use it to create generic ArcCW addon icons for your addon.

- 8Z went through the trouble of writing a lovely guide for you to read if you want to learn the basics of creating weapons on ArcCW.

Finally, I cannot thank enough the many, many people who have helped me to make this mod possible. I couldn't have done it without you.

- Why are my scopes so low quality?
That's Cheap Scopes, a feature that's supposed to make those lovely little picture-in-picture scopes a bit less horrendously laggy. While it can save up to 100 FPS on some maps, there is no way to make it higher quality. If you would like to turn them off, you can do so in Options > ArcCW > Performance > Cheap Scopes.
UPDATE:
Cheap scopes are now working like in modern games by smoothly zooming you all the way in without pixel mess. You can configure difference between eyes and scope FOV in Options > ArcCW > Scopes > FOV Boost
