[A11] Halo Weapon Pack (V 1.2 / 13.6.2015) moved by request of topic starter

[Helixien]

Description:

Do you like Halo? Yes? Then you will love this mod! And even if you are not a Halo fan, I think you will quite like these weapons!
Its my first mod. I made it since I could not find any Halo weapons for Alpha 10 so I made my own one

Content:

So far you have following weapons:

MA5B/Assault Rifle - (Version from: Halo CE) - only one model (classic)!
MA37/Assault Rifle - (Versions form: Halo Online/Halo Reach) - 8 different models!
BR55/BR - (Versions form: Halo Online) - 5 different models!
M6A/Magnum - (Versions form: Halo Online) - 2 models!
M6D/Magnum - (Versions form: Halo Online/Halo CE) - 2 models!
MA37/DMR - (Version from: Halo Reach/Halo Online) - 3 models!
SRS99/Sniper - (Versions from: Halo Reach) - 2 models!

All weapons have different stats (damage, how fast they fire, range, etc) and different bullets. I did my best to make them fit into the game without them being too powerful or to weak. They should play nice with other weapon mods.

How to Install:

- Unzip the contents and place them in your RimWorld/Mods folder.
- Activate the mod in the mod menu in the game.

Permissions & Credits:

Artwork of the weapons was created by: Drakojan14  over on deviantart! I just brought them in the game!
Sounds are from soundfxcenter.com!

If a new version of RimWorld is released, you can freely post an updated version of my mod here!

Nice mod, but i'm playing on Rimsenal mod and having more than one mod with glitterworld weapons isn't soo good. If you could balance these weapons for mods like GlitterTech, Rimsenal, Rimfire etc. this would be great.

Shouldnt be too hard.

[nmid]

the textures look really good.
Reminded me of halo1 (which is the only one I really played the lift out of :p)

Hope the weapons are well balanced.

[Helixien]

To be honest, I dont really know. I tried to make them fit into RimWorld while still giving them a Halo feel.
Feedback would be nice

Will try it out this weekend, in A11 and when a few more mods get updated to a11

ps - Release your mod for A11 too, if it won't be too tough !

[Helixien]

So, it now works with alpha 11

[Adamiks]

You forgot to change name of this topic from Alpha 10 to 11

Hi,

Finally trying this out in A11... looking at the xml, you have done a lot of balancing for these weapons and I love it

Btw, looking at the code

The yellow error code in RW debug log will go away after you rectify this.


edit -
Also noticed this... oops :s

Config error in Bullet_RailgunMK1: Bullet_RailgunMK1 ends with a numerical digit, which is not allowed on ThingDefs.
Config error in Gun_RailgunMK1: Gun_RailgunMK1 ends with a numerical digit, which is not allowed on ThingDefs.

Guess this isn't a big issue.. wonder what happens when they say it's 'not allowed'.

I remember making a
    <defName>RefrigeratedTrayRack2</defName>
and it worked fine.
Obviously when I changed it to    <defName>RefrigeratedMiscRack</defName> in the same running game, my game crashed :p
I had to delete the old Rack2 and then make the change. Anyway, getting OT.

Your weapon artwork is a lot better than mine, in my opinion

The weapons in my Halo mod look kind of... meh. Lol.

Good work, man

[nmid]

sorry, guess I'm tired.. perhaps this isn't a problem with a fresh RimHalo weapon pack, but I have checked 2 times and I think this is an original file problem..
In the Mods\RimHalo\Defs\ThingDefs\RH_Guns.xml file

I can't get this to work in prepare carefully I don't see any of the weapons. (I haven't seen any raiders with them either)

I saw the pistols, haven't seen the rifles in prepare carefully.

add
<weaponTags>
      <li>Gun</li>
      <li>AdvancedGun</li>
    </weaponTags>
to whichever weapon or weapon base you want edb prep to show.

Currently it's only in BaseHumanGun Thingdef.. adding it to an individual gun or to the parent class (under this)
<ThingDef Name="BaseGun" Abstract="True">
will work.
