Dark Forces Nostalgia Weapon Pack [WOTC]

DESCRIPTION
This mod adds 5 weapons inspired by the Dark Forces series of games. These weapons were often seen in the hands of Imperial or Underworld factions before they would inevitably end up in Kyle Katarn’s hands.

All weapons have alternate fire modes and I have mimicked the original particle effects as closely as I could.

On account of the alternate fire modes, these weapons could not truly be considered balanced with vanilla weapons. I attempted to balance faith to the original designs of these weapons with the interests of not going too far off XCOM 2’s rails.

I have no immediate plans to expand this pack further.

You may notice that the concussion rifle and flechette launcher models look like they’re 17 years old. That’s because they are. I am not aware of any more recent models for these weapons but I wanted to have them in the game.

SUGGESTED MOD
Improved Rocket Targeting: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2067720616 (should make the concussion rifle blast targeting a little less prone to getting stuck on low cover objects)

CREDITS
The Bowcaster Art Assets are from Cavily’s Rebel Weapons mod. I also used code from Cavily’s Rebel Weapons mod to integrate weapons into pre-existing saves.
