Also, I added in the M41A Pulse Rifle and the M56 Smartgun from Aliens today.
The M41A can fire both 10x24mm caseless rounds and 30x71mm grenades.
(I did a trick in the raws where both the 10x24mm caseless round and the 30mm shells are in the "10X24MM_CASELESS_ROUND" class. Since there aren't any real guns that chamber 10x24mm caseless, I could pull it off.)

The Smartgun is heavy as hell, but is (so far) the most powerful weapon in the mod.

[EDIT:By "powerful," I mean that the Smartgun has the most stopping power of any of the guns implemented so far. It doesn't necessarily make it the "best." In fact, the Smartgun is too heavy to be practical. Its ammunition isn't big (10x28 caseless), but the gun itself is huge.]

Any requests for other movie guns?
(I haven't forgotten about the 1887.)
I might do Robocop's gun, if I can find the specs.

Would the AVR-30 be out of the question?

Also, how far back do you consider modern? Would WW2 era weapons make it in? WW1? Dwarven maxim gun crews would be awesome.

Never mind, it was in the OP and I missed it the first time around.

Absolutely not. I'll probably add in the other firearms from Avatar while I'm at it.

Progress is still being made on the mod.
I usually try to at least add something in every weekday, so it isn't just sitting there, even if that something is just a few new sentences of speech or a couple new clothing items. This coming weekend is when I plan to get some more of the guns added in.

STATUS UPDATE!
*Cue breaking news music*

We are two days away from The Grindening. (Not a bad name for a heavy metal band, now that I think about it)
Over a period of about half a week, I shall forego all other non-essential activities to add in a fuckload of guns into the raws.
Perhaps-- just perhaps, (Armok willing), I shall finish the guns.
Then all that's left is to add in military uniforms, and to polish off what remains.
This is Dampe signing off, stay tuned and good night.

[Dampe]

Prepare yourselves, mortals, for The Grindening is at hand.
[EDIT: It's 12:30-ish. Taking a lunch break. Handgun count at 270, Canadian handguns are finished.]

....What is the file size at this point? All these guns are going to end up lagging the game hard  .

[Putnam]

Are they? I'm pretty sure item types don't actually do that.

I don't know. Are they? I don't even know how he is managing to add things like barrel length, he never did go into his system  . At the very least, making the guns will end up being a mess. I also don't know how lag works. Or what it is.  Laser Augmented Gun?

It's 78 kilobytes, so you'll probably need an external hard drive just to download the mod.

Sorry about that.
Basically, I'm using barrel length (corresponding to the force of the shot) versus size (the size of the guns is a bit more complicated, but it's the overall length in millimeters for the pistols. I've got an idea of what I'm going to do for rifles, but I haven't started adding them in yet, so I'll go into that at a later date.) versus caliber (correlates to ammunition size and velocity) to balance out the weapons. On paper (or rather, screen) it works pretty good, but I haven't gotten a chance to try it out in game yet.

[Dampe]

This will be coming back soon.

[Dampe]

The glorious return is soon to be upon us

[CornishGH]

How soon?
