Globaltech Mod (Alpha V.2)

Ricky_Van · 2018-12-02T08:57:21.751Z

Globaltech Mod Alpha V.2 is now up and ready.

this time, i found out that in first Alpha test, the mod is actually not working as intended and as a result, the item that was supposed to spawn naturally in place where rare weapons should spawn… never spawn at all…
now with this Alpha V.2 it will work as intended and if its work as intended, i will update it to Beta Test and more items should be added for Beta.

this Alpha V.2 includes 2 new items :

Globaltech Katana : Rare, upgraded version of katana by Globaltech.
Globaltech Sword : Rare, upgraded medieval sword by Globaltech.

Special thanks to :

@Malkeus : for helping me solving the item-spawning problem.
@nameless_survivor : for Anti-material Rifle balancing suggestion.

I hope that the XSG-80 can show up on a special NPC named “gun jesus”

and you said that right after i thinking about making NPC that sells weapon… need more scripting experience though.

What makes the anti-material sniper rifle different or better than the Barrett .50? That thing can kill a skeletal juggernaut in like 3 shots tops.

Ricky_Van · 2018-12-03T10:22:12.174Z

yeah… github cataclysm member says the same question to me about that.
i intend to add another anti-material rifle for variety choice, so players can choose between globaltech Anti-Material or original Anti-Material.

So it’s same stats just different weapon?
If so kinda nice to have more choice.

It would be best if you did something to vastly differentiate the two, rather than have just small differences.

Some suggestions:
Make it use a VERY large caliber round compared to the Barrett .50 (.50 BMG), like maybe the 20mm Vulcan. With armor piercing and explosive ammunition variants.

Anzio 20mm rifle

The Anzio 20mm rifle is an American anti-materiel rifle designed and marketed by Anzio Iron Works. It is the first American anti-materiel rifle designed and mass-produced for public sale with a bore diameter in excess of .50 caliber in over 80 years. The rifles are available in three calibers, with the rifle's predominant chambering being the 20mm Vulcan caliber. Other notable features include an optional three-round detachable box magazine, a 49-inch (1.2 m) barrel, and threaded muzzle to accep...

20 mm caliber

The 20 mm is a specific size of cannon or autocannon ammunition. Few weapons (aside from shotguns, large game hunting rifles, and heavy caliber muzzleloading "rampart" or "wall guns" popular in the early to mid 19th century European militaries) have been built to fire projectiles between 12.7mm (such as the 12.7mm NATO) and 20 mm, though several 13mm, 14.5mm, and 15mm heavy machine guns were used during World War II, such as the MG 131. The 14.5 mm is still used by some Soviet machine guns, such...

For balance purposes, such a rifle would be very heavy, have a slow rate of fire & target acquisition, and have limited ammo, like 3-5 rounds tops. Also, have an integrated bipod that cannot be uninstalled. A beast of a rifle like this would HAVE to be fired prone or balanced on a surface.

yes i have done it all, and for the bipod and weight will be implemented.

it uses its own special ammo, .75 AMR

old comic, good one.

more gun, more ways to survive.

Ricky_Van · 2018-12-04T06:14:07.580Z

no, i intend to make it more powerful in exchange for rare ammo, and rare spawn rate.
