[WOTC] Enemy Within MEC Weapons

Description
FEATURES

Adds Heavy Chaingun, Heavy Railgun and Particle Projection Cannon from XCOM Enemy Within as SPARK Weapons.

These weapons are unlocked alongside normal SPARK weapons. They have slightly different stats in order to provide a meaningful alternative to existing weapons, but they can be easily converted into purely cosmetic options.
  • All three new weapons do not Shred armor, unless you use a Resistance Order or special ammo.

  • Heavy Chaingun - can deal slightly more damage than Autocannon, has more ammo, and uses a close range aim table, meaning it's more accurate up close, and less accurate at range.

  • Heavy Railgun - provides a bonus to critical chance, but deals less maximum damage than Helix Rail Cannon. Pierces armor.

  • Particle Projection Cannon - similar to Heavy Railgun, but better in most ways. Notably, it is more accurate at most ranges.

  • Additionally, you can enable a Tier 2 and Tier 3 Chainguns, and Tier 3 Railgun, if you want.

CONFIGURATION

All config is done here:
..\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\1626184587\Config\XComEWMECWeapons.ini
You can edit weapon stats, or just flip the switches to make new weapons cosmetic, i.e. they will have the same stats as normal SPARK weapons.

This is also where you can add new abilities to these weapons and enable T2 and T3 versions of Heavy Chaingun and Heavy Railgun.

COMPATIBILITY

Should be compatible with everything, no class overrides or anything like that. Safe to add mid-campaign.

Compatible with [WOTC] Mechatronic Warfare: Total SPARK Overhaul, which changes SPARK weapons to be unlocked with Grenadiers' Cannon upgrades. My mod will detect if Mechatronic Warfare is loaded and act accordingly.

Load an Avenger save.

Any way to force generation of the mod's weapons when you've already unlocked and bought all vanilla SPARK weapons?

No idea, WIO isn't my mod.

Say Iridar? does this work alongside the weapon and Items overhaul mod?

The intended effect is for the mentioned weapons not to shred armor.

Could you elucidate how the negative shred stats work for the weapons in game, please? What is the affect?

I tried out a Heavy Chaingun, but it turns out it gives enemies +1 armor with every hit. Is anyone else seeing this? I can't think of any reason why it would do so.

You could also reskin weapons or tweak the stats.

@Iridar I took a look at them and they look awesome, but aren't exactly what I am going for. What I meant was that I want vanilla weapon reskins that look like portable naval guns or whatever. I like the vanilla balance of SPARK weapons but I want them to look more devastating rather than actually be more devastating.

Have you seen SPARK Arsenal and SPARK Launchers Redux? Combined they add quite a lot of what's normally called heavy ordnance.
