B42 Rain's Firearms & Gun Parts

Description
A complete overhaul of the vanilla Project Zomboid firearms and gun attachments. Somewhat lore-friendly or vanilla+.

This is very much a work in progress. B42 unstable broke literally every lua script I had in B41.78, all my suppressors, every AnimSet I had customized, and obviously every single item & weapon script file as well. Expect bugs all the way until B42 goes stable, and even after that. I am soloing this thing.
It seems like both gun and ammo spawns have been significantly reduced in B42. You might want to try different sandbox options, because the gun stores especially seem quite empty currently.

Won't be compatible with any other gun or gun attachment mod, due to differences in lua

If your character has never in their lives even held a firearm (Aiming 0), their accuracy with especially pistols and more "advanced" types of guns will reflect that experience level. Shotguns and especially sawn-off shotguns are your best option to level up your Aiming, because they are much more forgiving to unskilled shooters than a handgun would be for example. Once you get your character to Aiming 5, all the guns will be accurate. Especially if you use some of the attachments that improve accuracy. Aiming 6 and above will start turning your character into John Wick.

All the new stuff
Ammo
7.62x39 and 7.62x51

Trait: Gun Enthusiast
"A regular at the local firing range." +1 Aiming, +1 Reloading, and +1 Nimble. -6 points.

Suppressors
9mm Suppressor
.45 ACP Suppressor
.223/5.56/7.62x39 Suppressor
.308/7.62x51 Suppressor
12g Suppressor
12g Suppressor (Improved)
Homemade Suppressor
Suppressors reduce (but do not eliminate) the sound level of gunshots. Lower caliber weapons are more suppressed than higher caliber ones.
For example, 9mm guns with a suppressor are about as loud as a running generator. The homemade suppressor is not nearly as effective as the other ones.

Attachments
Fiber Optic Sight: Small bonus to accuracy and range
Red Dot Sight: 2x as effective as the Fiber Optic Sight
SOCOM Red Dot Sight: Rare military issue red dot, 3x as effective as the Fiber Optic Sight
x4-x12 Scope: Small increase to minimum range, big increase to maximum range
Double Barrel Shotgun Choke Tube: Self-explanatory
Shellholder: Increases a shotgun's reloading speed
Improved Recoil Pad: Attacheable to shotguns as well
Marksman's Recoil Pad: Far more effective recoil pad for rifles
Compensator: Reduces a pistol's recoil and helps slightly with accuracy
x4 ACOG Scope: Increases both minimum and maximum range, along with accuracy. Small penalty to aiming time.
x8 ACOG Scope: Increases both minimum and maximum range, along with accuracy. Penalty to aiming time.
Foregrip (Tactical/Wood): Reduces recoil, allows for quicker aiming, and very slightly helps with accuracy.

Bags
Military Pouches & Military Pack. Similar to the Military Backpack, and all three can be worn together. The Military Pouches also provide Webbing attachments.


Guns
The H&K MK 23 pistol with all of it's possible attachments. The tiny little Fiber Optic Sight, Laser Sight, Red Dot, SOCOM Red Dot, and of course the .45 Suppressor.

Glock 17: 9mm
H&K USP M45: .45 ACP
H&K MK 23: .45 ACP

Do not reupload any of my stuff without my permission. It took a lot of my spare time to get this mod done.

Massive thank you to Nik for the lever action animations!

FAQ
"Will this work with gun/gun attachment/gun durability/gun ANYTHING mod X?":
No it will not.

For most people, yes. If you want to be extra safe, backup your save first.
"How do I attach suppressor/laser/red dot/attachment?":
Have a screwdriver, the gun, and the attachment in your main inventory. Right click the gun -> Upgrade.

NO!

This is the 1st time I'm using this mod since I've only recently started to enjoy using guns in the game and I just gotta tell ya, thank you for this. Giving the in-game guns IRL names is easier for me to know which one is which and that helps me out alot. Also SPAS-12 is my fave so far so thanks for adding that too LOL

Reply from Rain @seabiscuit1985
"After you get a red error message, exit the game and go to your Users\YourUserName\Zomboid folder and open up the console.txt file there.

Scroll down to the very bottom, and then search for ERROR entries. You will find what's breaking your stuff.

Also my ban ends in approximately 24 hours. Please don't make me return angry by using multiple gun mods."

Hi Rain. After 42.10 I noticed that your mod conflicts with one other mod, but I won't be able to tell which one. Whenever I shoot, the screen would blink and there is a mod error alert on the right side of the bottom of my screen. However, the alert only lasts very shortly when I shoot and I won't be able to pause then see what happens, because as long as the fire is stopped the conflict disappears. Is there any way I can find out which mod clashes with this one? Many thanks.

Aww Rain, my heart. You're the goat! Hang in there [insert cat poster here]

From Rain @_Zevon:

"I don't.

Clothing or armor mods aren't my forte, at all. I know how to make them, but I won't unless I have to.

Feel free to join my Discord and I can tell you the basics of PZ modding, including clothing/armor stuff.

Thank you for your comment."

Hey Rain, I wanted to thank you for great mod. I appreciate it a lot.

I had a question. Do you happen to know of any old mods that have chainmail armor? I looked around and I couldn't find them.

I know you're really busy, but I wondered if there are any plans by you to make an armor package to go with your tools and weapons package.

If not please let me know, and I'll get to modding it. Just didn't wanna step on your toes.

Thanks again for the great mods!

Hello, message from Rain:

@Banana Phone
"Thank you so much for being part of the 99% of my subscribers who I love and who I create my mods for. I know I come off harsh these days but it's because I'm in a tough place, and I can't handle the idiocy of some of these people. You remind me why I mod in the first place"

Had a discussion with TIS about the long range weapons not seemingly wanting to hit their targets with a 8-12x scope. Currently I need to get up in their face for the shot to connect, despite using a bolt action rifle.

They said it's possible the values aren't set right. Because right now long range shooting feel very bad. I'm missing constantly with aiming 6.
Banana Phone Jul 2 @ 7:25pm 
Oof, a lot of these comments look pretty annoying for Rain even without having to get someone to convey your words for you. Well I don't want to waste your time but I wanted to add in my genuine thanks for the mod and your hard work. I imagine something like this isn't easy. I really enjoy it, works flawlessly for me. Then again, I know how to read and didn't install any other gun mods. Much appreciated!
