[1.2] High Caliber (21.08.2020) updated to R1.2 with 3 new guns!

[Alenerel]

A lot of weapons but not a nice M16A2 and no classic dragunov

Do you have a table with all the stats of the weapons to know what they do?

How did you make the sprites?

Latest update removed all the SoundDef errors! Thanks for all your hard work, Kenny!

If You Guys Want The Ballistic Shield Back in A16 Just move the Assemblies and Def(HC_BallisticShield.xml to ThingDefs)  from A15 to A16, proven, does not break 

[Dimbledorf]

is there a compatibility patch for combat realism?

[etoire]

Hey, Kenny, I updated the RecipesDef files over to A16. I removed the melee weapons file and changed all instances of ArtilleryShell in HeavyWeapons over to MortarShell, the new name for that thing. Happy holidays!


Instructions:
Unzip RecipesDef into HighCaliber/Defs. Should look like
...HighCaliber/Defs/RecipesDef

Most likely Gimp or Photoshop. It's really not that hard to make your own gun sprites and due to the graphic limitation 64x64 pixels you don't have to be DaVinci. I've made a ton of my own sprites. I think the real problem is trying to make sniper rifles and long guns look good given the 64x64 limitation. Ultimately most long-guns you add into the game are not to realistic scale.

Anyway i use Gimp. I save a gun image - it's profile off the net. flip horizontally, add an alpha channel and delete the white background with the wand tool. Then i scale the image down to 64 lengthwise. Almost all Rimworld weapons have a black border around them.

For longer weapons, you could have them oriented diagonally to help with that.

You could but then the barrel of the weapon would be pointed 45 degrees off axis of the target's  trajectory  and the bullet would miraculously appear 45 degrees away from the barrel, unless you know of some thing in the defs to rotate textures. To put it another way when your pawns are aiming they would never be aiming precisely at the target they are actually aiming at.

Good point. Thought you just meant for the item's icon, but its the same one, isint it.

Well, it would still work for atleast one firearm with a mass-produced modification...

Has this been updated to be compatible for combat realism in A16?
