Gearlock Firearms

Overview

---

 

Need more ways to punish the bowtorns? Or maybe the bear problem is getting outta hand... Not trying to sound like an arms dealer but I may have something for you! This mod adds four firearms that use gearlock mechanism roughly inspired by the irl wheelock. The mod introduces interactive GUI based mini-game reload system, the exact reload speed will largely depend on you and your ability to do it under pressure :> 

This mod was born out of my personal need for a firearm with GUI based reloading system + ability to attach it to an elk. It's my little take on what firearms could look like in the world of vintage story, by all means<span style="text-decoration: underline;"> it's not meant to be a realistic representation of a muzzeloaders</span> nor it aims to be. I'm not a firearms expert, i just enjoy 3D modeling, vintage story and when things go boom. Am i slowly remaking rdr2 in vs? Maybe..

&nbsp;

This is a standalone mod it does not require any dependecies, my general goal is to keep it fairly vanilla friendly and simple to maintain.

Contribution

The "Gearlock" assembly idea was born thanks to DUCATISLO who rightfully so suggested a lot of important changes to the hidden gun from the walking stick mod therefore sparkling my need to make more firearms :&gt;
