Description

**I haven't tested this addon in a very long time. I won't be supporting it anymore but feel free to use it if it works and/or re-upload fixes for it.**

"The M2 flamethrower was an American man-portable backpack flamethrower that was used in World War II. It was the successor to the M1 and M1A1 flamethrowers. Although its burn time was only around 7 seconds and the flame was only effective out to around 20–40 meters, it was still a useful weapon. However, with the arrival of flamethrower tanks, the need for flamethrower-carrying infantrymen to expose themselves to enemy fire was greatly reduced."

-Wiki

This is a working SWEP for Garrys Mod 13! Feel free to subscribe, and find it in the "M2 Flamethrower" section under your weapons menu!

Features:

Epic flame engulfing primary fire.

Regenerating fuel cannister by reloading.

Props are able to be set ablaze by new HD effects courtesy of Mr.Mind!

Small file size! Just under 5MB.

Perfect addition for any 1944RP server.

Syntax_Error752's and Mr.Mind's reliable base code, DoD's models, and Sanniku's beautiful world model!

I take no credit for making this addon! All credit goes to Syntax_Error752™ for creating the SWEP itself! I simply ripped the SWEP from his WW2 Weapons Part 2 pack that you can find here.
I also did some minor fixes in terms of kill icons, and compatibility with various gamemodes. We only had a use for the flamethrower on our server, so we decided to make a seperate addon to reduce the download size!

Update v1.1-
-Fixed flamethrower kill icon displaying for all weapon kills. Now just becomes default kill icon.

Update v1.2-
-Fixed flamethrower not functioning in DarkRP properly.

Update v1.3-
-Added a second flamethrower variant that has a fuel tank on the back. Should be compatible with every playermodel in terms of display; however, some playermodels' backpacks/equipment may poke through. You can always use the original.

Update v1.4-
-Removed secondary flamethrower and kept one central flamethrower SWEP with a tank.
-Added a new world model model courtesy of Sanikku as he uploaded a nice one on his SWEP here.
-Added all new effects for the flamethrower that look absolutely amazing courtesy of Mr.Mind. See his addon in the credits section.

Update v1.5-
-Fixed flamethrower flame not burning at correct distances. The flame could reach an entity but not ignite it. This is now fixed. If the flame hits something, it ignites.

Download the map I used in the screenshots if you'd like here.There's also an extra addon you can download on the author's page that includes even more maps from Resistance and Liberation. Don't forget to download the three required content packs as well for the maps if you decide to download them!
