Any mod that creates more weapon mods

I have look and I don't think I have seen a mod that does this, if anyone could help
and on an unrelated note, where do I get the dll that I need to install the GECK

I'm also interested in this, particularly a silencer for the anti-material rifle - mostly because I often play at 3am and it's so much louder than the silenced sniper rifle!

I don't think the Anti-Materiel Rifle could effectively be silenced. The rounds are probably super sonic or however you accurately use that description. In that case, the bullets themselves are causing sonic booms. You can't stop that just by throwing a silencer on it, you'd have to use a lower velocity round for a quieter shot, and also lose killing power because of it.

Heh, are you talking about a mod that you put on your weapon... and every now and then it spits out a random weapon mod? :D I'd go for that!

Just for this one thing I don't care about realism, I care about waking up my husband and neighbours in the small hours of the morning if I switch from my silenced sniper rifle to my anti-material rifle and forget to turn the speaker volume down before firing.... there are no rules prohibiting mods that are unrealistic, if there were half of them would never get to release... :D

you could easily make a mod that silences the AMR when attaching another weapon mod (say a silencer from a sniper rifle) to it by using the geck and just setting the correct values. of course if you wanted it to change the model as well you'd need a bit of savy with a modeling program since the AMR's body is all one mesh, so removing the flashguard would be the biggest problem. you could add a silencer over the flash guard but the mesh would look silly unless you size up the silencer to be really big.


actually if you like i can whip that up in about 10 minutes. i just tried the silencer out and it doesn't seem too horrible...

If it would really be that quick for you to do it I'd be grateful, but I don't want to put you to any trouble - my experience with modding games only extends as far as modifying the bonuses on a couple of items for my own use and fixing a couple of NPC 'greetings' conditions in Morrowind due to a mod conflict, and although I know that in theory I could do it myself, it would involve a long session with a GECK tutorial first.... :o I honestly don't care too much what it looks like :)

yeh I don't really want a silencer, that would take the fun out of the gun, just more mods, and I thought the fat-man was a little underpowered, I think I would be able to make something, but I cant get the geck working right, and I would say I am a mediocre modeler, so I would be able to do this. Actually made 15$ from selling 3d models
