[ArcCW] SYNTHESIS Pre-Overhaul Pack (Abandonware)

Description
Hi there, folks. I need to have a very serious discussion with all of you regarding Patriam Pack 2075 and my personal server.

Lately, life's thrown me a bit of a curveball and I have found myself in a situation where I am unable to have enough time to sufficiently work on my ideas for Patriam Pack 2075. I am (as of this time of writing) 24 years old and have adult responsibilities such as my job and college. I do have interest in working on the Patriam Pack but currently I cannot make any promises on its existence or continued development. Surely, this is going to be either shocking or expected to hear. My radio silence in my discord server unfortunately ties in with this as well and will be shut down at some point. If I make a return to the workshop, I will be certain to start a new server.

Thank you all for your support. Even in the moments where I have not been present, I have always read your comments and never stopped thinking about you guys. Much love,
Aerosun.

What is this?
This is an attachment pack that was made and balanced for a now-abandoned Save-Based game called "Scarlet Hunter Revolution". It features a wide variety of eccentric, curious, and even impractical (but fun) attachments. Fun is the main focus of this pack. Balance can get pretty crazy very fast, especially when used in combination with attachments not featured in this pack. It is thematically about vampire hunters in the far-future. Do with this as you will.

Who is SYNTHESIS? They are a Research and Development company contracted by Vampire Hunter Society. These are the tools provided by them to help VHS combat the rapidly growing plague of Vampirism and its supporting revolutionary organization, Sympathy. SYNTHESIS usually has to be held back by their contractors due to strict regulations and restrictions imposed on them.

If it isn't obvious, these attachments are balanced around PvE and will most likely tear people to shreds in Multiplayer. There are also secrets that unlock insanely powerful attachments. Server owners be warned.

CONTENTS:
This addon contains:
7 Ammo Types
2 Charms
2 Fire Configurations
1 Grip
2 Muzzle Devices
5 Optics
1 Perk
2 "Curses" (really just perks but spicier)
5 Tactical Devices
5 Underbarrel Weapons
5 Junk Attachments
And a very, very unique attachment called "VAMPIRE-RESISTANCE" (found in the Perks slot) based on the also abandoned Scarlet Hunter VR: Curse of The Blood Moon.

All attachments (Except for VAMPIRE-RESISTANCE) are compatible with Gunsmith Offensive.

KNOWN ISSUES:
  • Most, if not all, attachments use a placeholder icon.
  • Curse of The Vampire's Bite and Curse of The Scarlet Rose do not actually kill the player when the player's health hits zero, but instead send their health into a negative state that will kill them after the next point of damage they take.
  • MOONGAZER and SUNBEAM Scopes' optics are blurry and hard to read.
  • VAMPIRE-RESISTANCE does not work with GSO (Intentional).
  • MIDNIGHT HUNTRESS when equipped as a backup sight is not canted.
  • DEMON Sear does not work as advertised, burning through the magazine as fast as the base will allow instead of instantly as it states.
  • Voidleak Rounds will always play the Rifle sound even when being used on a weapon not using SMG ammo. (Oversight)
  • .357 Stun Rounds are horrifyingly overpowered.
  • The stake charm, despite CLEARLY looking like it would work as an actual attachment, is not one. (This was an oversight that is now being taken into account in the remake). Moving to ARC-9. I cannot guarantee this attachment will be returning.
  • VOID Laser isn't truly invisible anymore.
  • Cyan LP/HP lasers are not pointing in the correct direction.

PLEASE READ THIS.
The moment this addon becomes public, it is officially considered abandonware and will NOT be fixed/updated. Because I am planning to move everything to ARC-9, Patriam Pack especially, bug reports here won't be very helpful to me. At one time I did ask for them but I've moved on to an upcoming weapon base. Please read the discussions for an important message regarding this.

ah,thank you.

You forgot to install Counter-Strike +, which is prominently listed in the required addons list- which also pops up to tell you that it is required before you install this addon.

I will answer this question seriously once and only once, any comments asking about this after this statement will be made fun of for future reference (as in, not you ahathat)

@local menace (to society)

Little update on that... It was cancelled and effectively turned into a giant "Do-it-Yourself" type project for ARC9 called Unlameifier. You can play with it *right now* via GitHub, albeit it is still a work in progress. On the bright side, you don't need to rely on preset configurations and can modify your guns on a granular level (*plus use attachments from other ARC9 ecosystems)! So far, Darsu's EFT weapons are what I am using as a test bed as they offer the most customization.

*rudimentary implementation as of this time of writing

too bad it was abandoned it looks really cool

I do appreciate the check-in but, unfortunately this addon's been dead as ever.

If you're interested in ARC9, I'm currently working on a universal compatibility system that lets you use any attachment from any major weapon pack. (CoD, GSR, GAS, EFT, and Smorgasbord currently)

Is it bad I come to check this pack yearly?
Neosun  [author] 3 May, 2023 @ 6:57am 
I don't think you understand what "abandonware" means.
This addon is not being maintained, ergo that bug (if that's what's going on) will not be fixed.
