Hey Izayo, I’m having an issue where the 2X Scopes for Snipers are not working properly. Specifically, when I “aim” the weapon, instead of scoping in, it just aims like I am using a Red Dot Sight, making it impossible to see. It seems to only be effecting the 2X Scope, and it only effects Snipers. I manually uninstalled/reinstalled and tested each mod I had, this is the one that seems to cause it. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

I was playing with my friend recently and we both installed the 5.56 mod. I could see the weapons just fine on my end but they had some issues. they couldnt see or hear the guns and even couldnt see the ammo. they kept getting null errors as well. we both installed it the same way and we are thinking of both doing a fresh reinstall.

Dear Author, I like your weapon mod very much, it is the best weapon mod I have ever used. There is one small problem, though, with some guns, when they fire, the surrounding walls and floors also flash, which is undoubtedly cool. However, I will feel a little dazzling, causing discomfort, so I want to consult the author how to change which file in the mod which line of code to turn off this effect, thanks again to the author’s guidance.

all your weapon mods are awesome. love them. many thanks. very well done.

you also reduced cost, shotguns were too expensive (i reduced cost manually in config files).

you could change the vanilla pipe rifle to 5.56 ammo type. would be nice. and maybe buff the 5.56 damage a bit in general, some T1 rifles do less damage than the 9mm pistol, which is not realistic.

impossible. 5.56 base damage was set to have higher damage than the 9mm. maybe check your perk skill or weapon’s tier level, its increase damage.
here are the things that will increase damage to weapon
– number of mod (damage + .08 / mod)
– weapon’s tier level
– Tier of weapons
– perks
– some books (there is a book that increase 9mm weapon damage.)

I can’t buff 5.56 anymore it’s gonna be a better version of 7.62 ammo

These are a great set of mods that you have made!

There seems to be an issue with the scoping in on the G36C. It almost looks like the butt-end of the stock comes through the gun to cover the screen then back to normal. The rest of the AR’s aim down sight very smoothly. Issue with and without scopes.

Once again, thank you for these mods. Going to enjoy the LMGs!

Why you gotta remove the crosshair? I love your gun mods but JustAlterr has a mod that allows your to play as custom models and play 3rd person. When you play 3rd person you can’t aim without crosshairs. I was kinda hoping you add crosshairs to your shotgun mod, or at least a seperate file for with or without crosshairs. 3rd person on 7 days is actually pretty fun. But great mods man I love them.

Thanks for the reminder, I also wanted to do this, the Stack is very small and takes up a lot of slots in the inventory.

open the file

200 is the default value

“200” is “small”. Not really given how strong they are in A21 even on higher diff. I basically treat HnK-33 i got as a “get out of jail free card” given that it tends to kill a zombie in one shot on day 14. Sure its rarer then magnum ammo in loot but just don’t spray and pray and you will almost always have ammo for it.

Not really. For same quality, the RNG stats will always have the M60 do roughly double damage of these weapons. Same quality M4 is always going to be worse than the M60.

Not saying these have to do the same damage as a M60. Just need to be closer to make the trade offs worth it.

For people who want to make loot work = remove the “s” (located in :Mods\A21_Izayo_Firearms_556_pack\Config) . it’s should be “loot.xml” not “loots.xml”
LOL sorry about that . I’ll officialy fix in few days with tier 4G36c .

Ey Die Mod Funktioniert Gar nicht zusammen mit der Vision Extra Mod.
Mach es in eine Mod und nicht zu Doppelt und kompliziert.
Ich Brauche die Waffen für mein Server weil sie mir Gefallen.
Aber die Modest zu Kompliziert.
800 Fehler Logs zu Finden als mein Server es Laden Wollte voll WRR-Warning und ERR-ERRORs.
Bitte mach es zu Einer Mods bei Zwei Mod Lädt da Gar nix mehr.

Danke im Voraus

The mod is very good, I loved the detail of the weapons.You can put an L96A1 in the sniper?

Is there no way to get a tier 6 gun since the trader and loot xmls don’t work?
