Works with FU just fine.
Elster  [auteur] 17 jun 2023 om 11:02 
It was when I made it five years ago. I'm not certain the extent of what FU changes these days, and I'm no longer modding Starbound.
Ell Dahmer 17 jun 2023 om 10:40 
Are you sure this is FU-compatible? I kept running into enemies who just hold up their gun straight right or left and can't shoot, and I had the same problem with a lot of vanilla weapons.

It must be said that this "does not add" new sprites, but completely replaces the original ones, the weapon parts are numbered from 1 to 20 just like the original parts, same directory, same name = sprite replacement, it also modifies the position of the weapons in the hand and the cannon flash, replacing the original as well.

So, this mod replaces, not adds, however, I really advise to use these sprites for several reasons:

- The weapons are better made.
- They are prettier and some have similarities to modern weapons.
- They have an ideal size, you will no longer look like a small person picking up a giant's weapon xD

I really recommend this mod to replace the original weapons, there are many weapon mods if you want more weapons, but at least with this one you fix the originals and improve them.

Thanks =)

@ SirBillyGoat

It does not. This version includes only the new sprites, with no additional weapons added.
BillieGoat 27 mrt 2023 om 19:46 
Does this version still add the new types of guns? I couldn't tell from the description.

Is there a possibilty for a Sword Overhaul?
Elster  [auteur] 7 sep 2019 om 21:09 
@ aspen

It shouldn't. If it does, let me know.
NerdCuddles 22 aug 2018 om 12:28 
Can you make a version that adds the weapon parts in this just to the pot for them to get put on a gun? Becuse i changed the look of all my existing weapons
Cookiemaster & Co. 1 jul 2018 om 6:14 
The one handed guns thing I mentioned earlier seems to have been resolved, Wether it was something changed about Frackin' Universe or you guys did it. Glad it was fixed
Cookiemaster & Co. 30 jun 2018 om 8:23 
Small thing I noticed, the one handed guns (aka pistols and machine pistols) have a weird texture in which the gun looks normal, but then has a severed chunk in the middle floating below the rest of the gun,
Maybe Frackin' universe clashes with that but it still looks ok, just a tad weird
ATTA 27 jun 2018 om 21:14 
Whatever,thanks for your design...if once you make it,this is the very kind of mod I want,I'll keep my eyes for it
Elster  [auteur] 27 jun 2018 om 21:04 
@ 神秘车手

I would, but the way I've designed the weapon parts, they don't mesh together well with vanilla parts. You would end up with stocks and barrels that don't match up at all, and that's not even considering the inconsistency in design between my parts and the original ones.
ATTA 27 jun 2018 om 20:23 
My old weapons sprites were changed...if you can make it not to replace the "classic types(vanilla)"and just "add new types",it will be a magnificant MOD.

Overpowered weapons are the best. Best weapon mod btw.

okay thankjs
Elster  [auteur] 12 mei 2018 om 10:24 
@RedstoneRepublic

Untested. It's guaranteed to work as long as the client and server are both using it, but because the base and muzzle offsets are adjusted from vanilla, I'm unsure if it will work as intended if not every player is using it.

@ Keep Displeasing The Divines

We'll see. I'm pretty swamped with other work at the moment, but I may become more motivated later on down the line.
Elster  [auteur] 21 apr 2018 om 19:54 
@ Keep Displeasing The Divines

I've contemplated it, but melee weapons have a lot more variety than guns, and I don't know if I have the patience to resprite that many weapons again.
CapsuleDayze 26 mrt 2018 om 15:43 
yes. i agree. i have other mods im subscribed to that alter random weapon generation, and im probably seeing the result of mods clashing with eachother. thanks for lokking into it.
Elster  [auteur] 26 mrt 2018 om 15:35 
@ kalebeller60

I've tested each variant of the machine pistol and they seem to work fine on their own. My suspicion is that another mod you're subscribed to is altering the base offset of the machine pistols, but I can't be sure. I would suggest checking your mod list to see if there are any other mods that might be interfering.
Elster  [auteur] 26 mrt 2018 om 15:16 
@ kalebeller60

Either I didn't implement the machine pistol patch correctly, or some other mod's patch is modifying the base offset of the machine pistol. Let me double check it and I'll get back to you. In the meantime, could you look through your starbound.log and see if there are any errors regarding patches failing?
CapsuleDayze 26 mrt 2018 om 14:05 
machine pistols float in front of my character. what might be the problem?
Elster  [auteur] 22 mrt 2018 om 10:56 
@ ReaverSP

If a weapon isn't being affected by the sprite changes, it's because it likely has its own set of sprites. If I recall correctly, the weapons added by Frackin Universe are from Expanded Weapon Generation, which all use vanilla sprites. There's no reason they wouldn't be affected by the new sprites (though they may look a little funny).
ReaverSP 21 mrt 2018 om 13:01 
There seems to be some weapons added by FU, that are no affected by this mod. Like "submachine guns" for example.
A compatibility version between this mod and FU (mod authors) would be great. FU is a very popular mod and it would be great to have some "re-size" mod for weapons.
Jimadon 13 mrt 2018 om 1:41 
this looks cool i hope it is good and works fine for me! :D
777vp 12 mrt 2018 om 10:58 
Woah! This looks cool! :)
Elster  [auteur] 11 mrt 2018 om 17:30 
@ ★ Soul ★

Only if those you're playing with have it as well. The mod alters muzzleoffset and baseoffset of the guns, which prevents it from being client side. I could theoretically remove those changes to allow it to be client side, but the bullets would then be improperly aligned with the resprited barrels.
Paschalis 11 mrt 2018 om 17:13 
Does this work in MP?
Elster  [auteur] 10 mrt 2018 om 9:44 
@ ReaverSP

These sprites replace the vanilla weapons and this version should be compatible with FU. The guns are mostly the same size, but generally look less goofy than the vanilla ones. Hope it's what you're looking for?
ReaverSP 10 mrt 2018 om 9:40 
May I ask if this mod replaces or re-sizes the vanilla guns?
If not, is there a mod that does that and is compatible with FU?
Lienom Zekon 10 mrt 2018 om 7:11 
I been waiting for this
Elster  [auteur] 9 mrt 2018 om 17:27 
@ Gale

That's confusing. I was under the impression both the muzzle flash and bullet position were determined by muzzle offset. If the flash is positioned right, then the bullets should ideally be as well.
Gale 9 mrt 2018 om 11:59 
@LondonStolte

Thank you for looking into this so quickly!

Just to report on what things are like now on my end - the muzzle flash is now perfectly centered, but the projectiles on all weapons (including the ones generated by the Borderlands mod and others, aside from the unchanged vanilla ones) are still flying out the barrels slightly lower than they should.
Elster  [auteur] 9 mrt 2018 om 9:38 
@ Gale

From what I understand of the Borderlands and God Dame mods, they only affect new weapons (I think). Which leaves Frackin Universe as the likely culprit. Either way, setting the priority to an absurdly high number should cause this mod to load after most of those. It will be done in the next update, ETA ten minutes.
Gale 8 mrt 2018 om 23:57 
@LondonStolte

The only other mods that edit weapongen that I have are Frackin Universe, Borderlands Random weapongen mod and the God Dame weapon mods.

Sorry to bother, but do you think any of those might be affecting your activeitem.patch file?
Gale 8 mrt 2018 om 23:52 
@LondonStolte

Hmmmm, I'm guessing there's something conflicting with your muzzle flash/projectile fix. I have no idea what that might be, though, and can't even begin to think on where to start.

I'll take a look through my modlist and see what I come up with.
RustedCutlass717 8 mrt 2018 om 23:24 
So, my vanilla-part rifle that I really like has been overwritten by your parts. If it didn't override the vanilla parts, this'd be the mod of my dreams. Oh well.
K41RY 8 mrt 2018 om 19:20 
@LondonStolte Im saying that the original mod was incompatible with FU because of the weapons FU added. Though, I have no idea if/when FU and the original SB Weapon Overhaul mod were updated in a way to prevent clashing, thus rendering this compatibility version obsolete. I personally know for fact that FU-specific additional weapons had their own spawn command so yes, they had their own path. Then again, im no master coder, so like I said, it's best you talk with Sayter on the FU Discord.

And yes, it's best that only vanilla weapons are changed.
Elster  [auteur] 8 mrt 2018 om 19:10 
@ Crimsonite

Could you elaborate? Are you saying that the sprites are conflicting with the weapons added by FU? If so, I could change the path for the sprites so only vanilla weapons will be changed.
K41RY 8 mrt 2018 om 18:56 
this isnt FU compatile, is it? The original mod clashes with FU-additions since it adds new weapon types such as Battle Rifles, Revolvers, and Multi-Grenade Launchers. These additions have their own unique spawn command, /spawnitem swtjc_ewg_ so there is a chance patching certain aspects of the weapon generation system will prevent conflicts. That way the standard spawning mechanism is altered and swtjc_ewg remains intact. In any case, it'd be nice if you could touch base with Sayter.
Elster  [auteur] 8 mrt 2018 om 13:06 
Updated. Custom names removed for compatiblity.
ScrambieBambie 8 mrt 2018 om 12:57 
I have like 320 mods...after crunching ...so i have a good compatibility base to test. If your mod pass its great ;-)
Elster  [auteur] 8 mrt 2018 om 12:53 
@ ScarabParamit

Interesting. I'll roll the names back to default next update, hopefully that should solve the errors. It doesn't sound like it's causing any massive problems, thankfully.
ScrambieBambie 8 mrt 2018 om 12:33 
Nope... I just got this 3 errors in log.
Elster  [auteur] 8 mrt 2018 om 8:16 
@ Gale

I was under the impression that I had fixed it. I used an activeitem.patch to correct them. Perhaps something is conflicting?

@ ScarabParamit

If it's only the names that conflict, then mine will be removed in the next update. Compatibility is more important. Did that result in a crash to desktop, then?
Gale 8 mrt 2018 om 8:05 
Is there a way to fix the muzzle flash offset?

As of right now, no, I haven't released it on the Chucklefish forums.
