About this mod

Why Bethesda made a heavy machinegun, heavy gatling laser, but no heavy plasma weapon?
NOW YOU HAVE IT. This is a big, scary, green glowing, powerful Plasma Gatling. Ad victoriam!

First of all, sorry my English. I am not native speaker.
Mod was compiled by FO4Edit. This is my first work with this utility.

WHAT THIS MOD DO? - This mod adds a new standalone BADASS HEAVY PLASMA GATLING WEAPON. It has unique textures and glow(See screenshots).
Also added optional vanilla-style rusty textures. For now, its model based on Gatlinglaser one but II will add an unique model in future(3D-modelers, I am open for cooperation, PM me! ).
 
Diranar's VPG Gorgeous HD addon released!

HOW TO GET IT?
 - Craftable at chemi-table. Some steel, copper, oil, sensor modules, crystals and plasma cartridges will be needed.
OR
Press ~ to enter console mode. Then type in console HELP VPG 0 and press Enter
to see item ID for VPG Mk 2.0. Then type player.additem <ID> 1 and press Enter to get it. Then take it to weapon crafting table and attach some upgrades)))

KNOWN ISSUES: Do NOT try to drop it on the ground, this may cause it freeze. If it freezes in your game, try to OVERWRITE weapon's model NIF file with original Bethesda's file. Or just do not drop it and store it in inventory or in any chest or box. It gonna be fixed soon.

If you want to add legendary option to VPG, I recommend this mod: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/4042/?
PM me if you find any bugs or issues. I provide user support in [English] and [На русском языке].

WEAPON CHARACTERISTICS
- 45 plasma dmg, 45 ballistic dmg. Optional file less dmg - 20 PD, 20 BD. Fire rate same as Lasergatling and Machinegun. Uses Plasma Cartridges as Ammo. Long range, low cone spread and medium recoil. With craftable VPG Muzzle Focuser modification its recoil closes to zero, and you will be able to shoot all 500 plasmacells at one point.
For some reason, Bethesda made Gatlinglaser and Minigun too weak and absolutely useless in mid and late game. This mod aims to add heavy automatic weapon which could withstand and overwhelm high-level legendary enemies. If you begin to encounter all those imbalanced lvl 90 hardcore enemies like Legendary mythic deathclaws or assaultrons dominators in close\midrange combat VPG becomes the only thing which can save your ass.

LORE FRIENDLY - I think it's full lore friendly.))

WHAT'S NEW IN LATEST VERSION?
- added nice UV-green and plasma glowing optional textures!
- added craftable version, just overwrite old ESP file with it!
I highly recommend to craft "VPG Muzlle Focuser" and apply it on VPG to get ultimate, near no-recoil shooting stability.
It is really MUST HAVE modification for VPG. This focuser also can be applied on Gatlinglaser if you want to.
Also do not place default Gatlinglaser barrel on VPG - or you will get laser weapon instead of plasma one, until you remove that mod back from gun)))
-added optional VANILLA-STYLE rusty\dirt\yellow\steel texture(by request)
-added 2048x2048 textures!

If you upgrading from previous version, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND to remove old VPG from your player or follower inventory.
Best way is open console and type "player.removeitem xxxxxxx 1".
After that you are free and safe to install new version and add new VPG via console.


FUTURE PLANS - 1. Add some modifications of Scope and Muzzle. Done!
 2. Add shiny UV-green plasmatic glowmaps to some parts of gun. Done!
 3. Tweak recoil. Some people says that recoil is too high. Done!
 4. Add unique badass weapon model to make your enemies suffer. If you are good 3D artist and want to cooperate - PM me^____^
 5. Add optional FNV version with Mojave Wasteland Smitty Special\Plasma Caster model. 
  6. Make it craftable. Done!
