About this mod

Adds the Laser Diffuser, a makeshift weapon that loads microfusion cells like a sawed-off shotgun.

This mod is part of my Weapon Pack. Check it out for extra features and bugfixes.


OVERVIEW

How I envision it coming to be: A wasteland tinkerer wanted to use a laser pistol that was powerful like a laser rifle, but not as bulky and heavy. Instead of working off the limited Energy Cells (like Pew-Pew), they decide to devise a system around inserting and quickly ejecting a microfusion cell into the gun. To make up for the loss in range from the short weapon, the lenses are altered to split as many beams as possible, creating a crowd-controlling, laser-powered scattergun!

This weapon is added to all the appropriate forms lists via scripts, so there should be no conflicts at all.

FEATURES

Laser Diffuser: Fires 9 laser beams at once, weighs 5 lbs, has a 12 "round" clip and fires 3 rounds at a time, so every 4 shots you need to reload.

Mods:
- Accurate Splitter: Reduces spread.

- Energy Optimizer: Has a chance to regenerate ammo (50%)

- Overload Optimizer: Increases Condition (+50%)

The weapon and its mods can be found around the wasteland sold by various merchants, and will occasionally be carried by Fiends (who else, lol) and Brotherhood Scribes.


Also, don't refer to the screenshots for accurate prices, I use an economy overhaul mod, everything costs between 1200 to 2400 caps each by default.


NEW!
Compatible with Hitman's Sawed-Off Shotgun Anim Set (Will require the original mod and kNVSE)

ISSUES
 
As with other mods that add their items to form lists via scripts, while it's safe to install mid-playthrough, once it's registered on a save, you can't take it out. So you can't uninstall this mid-playthrough without unexpected issues.

INSTALL/UNINSTALL

To do it manually, add LaserDiffuser.esp into the Data folder, the LaserDiffuser folder and its contents in the Data\meshes\weapons\1handpistol folder and weapons_laser_diffuser.dds into the Data\textures\interface\icons\pipboyimages\weapons folder. Remove the files to uninstall.

Alternatively, you can use a mod manager.

REQUIREMENTS

Just the base game
