Improvised Silencers by Maxwell218

Description
This mod adds new craftable silencers and is 100% compatible with existing saves.
You will require a screwdriver to attach all silencers. This is how it works in vanilla. If one day someone figures out a way to change that, I will remove the need to use a screwdriver to attach the silencers.

IMPORTANT - This mod also fixes some of the weapon attachments offset (for the m16 and m14). The recoil pad on the m14 is a good exemple of something that vanilla pz currently doesn't show properly.

In order to play with both my mod and VFE, please make sure you only enable the patch and VFE. You will also need to assure that my mod loads after VFE (use mod manager for an easier time setting up mod order)

I would like you to update the patch to be compatible with VFE

Hey Maxwell, sorry for the bother but I was curious if there was a volume setting that reduces the suppressed sound for when the firearms fire. Just curious!

Hello! How to change SilencedSoundRadius for mp? Im hosting server for me and my gf and I wanna make shots with your silencers without any sound. But when I change SilencedSoundRadius for 0 nothing changes in mp. -.

Thanks Max. I've been researching my issue and I think some other mod is causing this mod to not respond. I'm going to go one by one and see which mod it is, if it is a mod, I'll report back what I find, thanks for what you do.

If you don't see the improvised tab in your crafting menu, make sure to have the mod enabled on your save. It's one thing to enable it on the main menu, but if you added the mod to a previously created save you also need to enable it per save.

I have all materials but no options to craft. No extra items on weapon. I'm using vanilla weapons. Any idea?

If you are using vfe, make sure you ONLY enable the patch (Mod ID: ImprovisedSilencersVFEPatch) and make sure it is loaded after vfe in the load order. For load orders on servers I believe you only need to add VFE first and THEN add the patch.

I'm not aware, but that wouldn't surprise me if they have the same item name
