While looking at the mod for the vanilla game laser bolts I was wondering "Imagine how nice they would look with America Rising weapons" thank you, kind sir.
You're welcome! I had the same exact thought, and thankfully editing the colors and projectiles isn't too difficult, just time consuming. The hardest part was trying to match the projectile color to the normal orange, and then it's just text editing and copy-pasting numbers.
Sorry for the late reply! So, the laser bolts mod converts the laser guns from a beam to a bolt. The bolt uses an actual .nif model with a color setting; it's simply copying the old model, changing the new model use a different color (whatever color you'd like), and then creating an esp file that tells the gun in-game to use the new projectile model instead of the normal beam.
The hardest part, assuming you have every tool you need (fo4edit, nifskope) and know what you're doing, is getting the color just right.
i am absolutely thankful for this patch, i really am, but. would it be possilble to Add other colors to the weapons? i have Zero experience mod making So i don't know how difficult that would be to add.
Sorry for the late reply, but it is absolutely possible to change or add colors, say, through a weapon mod. However, it is a bit time consuming, but not very difficult once you know what you're doing and have everything set up.
