[WOTC] Iridar's LW2 Laser and Coil Weapons - Ghost Templates

Description
This mod contains configuration for my Template Master that will add ghost templates of my LW2 Laser and Coil Weapons so they can be used as skins for XSkin or Weapon Skin Replacer to replace visual appearance of other existing weapons.

You can find screenshots and videos of the new weapons here.

LIST OF WEAPONS ADDED BY THIS MOD
  • Laser Autopistol - Heater
  • Coil Autopistol - Cycler
  • Laser Bullpup - Kal-33 Bullpup
  • Coil Bullpup - Kal-50 Bullpup
  • Laser Ripjack - Pulse Ripjack
  • Coil Ripjack - Nanotech Ripjack
  • Laser Vektor Rifle - Crimson Lance
  • Coil Vektor Rifle - Tesla Lance
  • Laser Sword - Laser Kriegsmesser
  • Coil Sword - Coil Sword (duh)
  • Laser SPARK Autocannon - Spitfire Pulsecannon
  • Coil SPARK Autocannon - Rush-Nano Gausscannon
  • Laser SPARK Heavy Cannon - RS-9 Redace Superlaser
  • Coil SPARK Heavy Cannon - DON-82 Coilmaster Heavy Cannon
  • Laser Combat Knife - Laser Cutlass
  • Coil Combat Knife - Progressive Knife
  • Laser Sawed-off Shotgun - Blazer
  • Coil Sawed-off Shotgun - Coil Shorty
  • Laser Hunter Rifle
  • Coil Hunter Rifle
The Coil Shorty uses the old "Mag Shorty" model, originally created for LW2 and then ported to WOTC by the LW2 Secondary Weapons mod, where it was eventually replaced with my own Magnetic Sawed-off Shotgun model.

REQUIREMENTS
Additionally, this mod REQUIRES that you have at least one mod that adds packages with materials used by the original laser and coil weapons.

You can subscribe to any one of these mods:
Since the requirements of this mod can be satisfied by different combinations of other mods, I'm not marking any of them as required, so that Alternative Mod Launcher doesn't have a reason to give you a false positive about missing dependencies.

I have used a few assets from Tactical Legacy Pack DLC. Some of the weapons may not look properly if you don't have it.

Safe to add mid-campaign. WOTC-only, no vanilla version planned.

OPTIONAL REQUIREMENTS

COMPANION MODS
Ghost Templates by themselves do absolutely nothing, and you will require additional mods to use them.

CONFIGURATION
This mod is entirely configurable through various configuration files in:
..\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\2391820069\Config

It sounds like you're using a pretty complicated mod set up, all out of mods which I don't use. Sorry, but I don't have time to figure it out for you. I'll say that you can use Weapon Skin Replacer or Template Master to override the clip size of almost any weapon.

Iridar okay where in https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2684079953 because
I went through every single file in and did not fine the clip size for any laser weapon only the base game weapons... why i need to change it i run a mod that add limited reloads but the Laser SPARK Heavy Cannon - RS-9 Redace Superlaser and Hunter Rifle have to small of a clip so i run out of ammo to fast even at most i can only kill 5 alien with the Heavy Cannon - RS-9 Redace Superlaser be for run out of ammo completely on the mission i fix that with the base SPARK Heavy Cannon but i can't fine a way in mod jam to do the same to the Heavy Cannon - RS-9 Redace Superlaser or laser hunter. so im asking if i sub to this mod would it overwrite Mod Jam laser file so i can change and fix my issue with running out of ammo

@VS-lockon
I don't understand your question, but you can probably change clip size in Mod Jam configs.
VS-lockon 19 Feb @ 8:37am 
why im asking i dont like the Mod Jam don't let me recode the clip side
VS-lockon 19 Feb @ 8:36am 
Iridar if i sub to this will it over right the Mod Jam for LWOTC

The Ghost Templates mod adds only the weapon templates. The Laser Pack adds weapon templates, upgrade schematics and a research template - all of which are used by 5TWO.

Just curious: any reason why you recommend [WOTC] [WSR] Laser and Coil Ghost Templates for this mod but you use Long War Laser Pack - WotC (unofficial) + Coilguns for War of the Chosen for your five tier overhaul?

Just finished a campaign with your five tier mod and for my next one I'm just going to use Xskin to apply these ghost templates. Any reason I should switch from the combination of mods to the one recommended here?

I'm not aware of any issues with the SMG mod, but as I replied elsewhere, you can hide any weapon using my Item Hider mod.
