• Consider this mod as a still ongoing work-in-progress, so be prepared for some things that still have to be polished. 
• Shattered Space DLC is a hard requirement.
• All options are contained in a common fomod installer. 
• Native support of ProfX66' Ammo HUD displaying custom icons for my weapons (new weapons will be supported with next AmmoHUD update) and custom weapon icons for non-AmmoHUD variants.
• Weapons are added to leveled lists - but they all have their own level-barriers to not make it too easy, so prepare for them to be rare and hard to find. They can be looted from enemies or bought at certain store vendors. Also there is rumor that some unique versions of particular weapons have been spotted out there...
• Quality tiers of can be crafted at the weapon workbench using Gambit77's Craftable Quality mods or DarkStar Manufacturing mod. According compatibility patches are included in the AiO FOMOD for:
  
  • Craftable Quality (quality tiers 1-4),
  • Craftable Quality Extended (quality tiers 1-14), and
  • Craftable Quality Extended - LMR Legendary Qualities (quality tiers 1-20, also requires Legendary Module Recycler), or
  • DarkStar Manufacturing (quality tiers level 1-7 for crafting standard, enhanced and vile versions).
    
• Following additional compatibility patches are available in the AiO FOMOD:
  
  • Laser Sight Dot Enabled
  • Magnetic Weapon Holsters (paid Creation)
    
• My mod is compatible with WFF, using the according WFF-default categories for ranged weapons, ammunition, and components and resources at the industrial workbench. For WFF-integration to work properly both SFSE and Real-Time Form Patcher are required. If you do not use WFF or one of the requirements, you can ignore them. My mod is fully operational without it.
• As I re-use certain vanilla assets (e.g. some reflex sights, scopes and muzzles), interferences with other mods altering these assets are possible.
• I plan on adding further weapon skins, more weapons and some more attachment stuff in the future. Do not ask me about an actual schedule. I will provide content updates when I feel they are in a state worth sharing with the public.
• I also plan on publishing this mod to Creations for XBox users at a later point in time - most likely when I feel that the progress of my mod is at some point of beeing final.

Introducing four new players of high-tech weaponry advancing to contest with the well-known big players, and one that has always been there kind of in the background:

Armat Battlefield Systems, Mars-based, also referred to as Armat, was founded on Earth, United States of America, Michigan in the 22th century. They moved to Mars with the exodus from Earth. Armat produces a variety of weapon systems predominantly focusing on military-grade arms and armor. Armat's major products included the M41A Pulse Rifle series and M4 pistols, both issued as standard equipment to the UC Marines. Like many other weapons manufacturers their actual HQ and production facility locations on Mars are kept secret for security reasons.





LDC Arms, Gagarin-based, founded by inventor and tech-pioneer Norman Lodecrius in 2298 in his one-man-workshop. Although Lodecrius went missing during the Colony War and since has officially been declared dead, his legacy lives on. Today the R&D and production facilities of LDC Arms are still located on Gagarin, their exact locations are kept secret for security reasons.

Relica, about which almost nothing is known to the public, first hit the market in 2320. It is not known, where the headquartes of this mysterious tech-weapon-producer is located, nor who is associated to this company. But soon enough, it is well-known that the weapons they produce are one deadly hell on the battlefield.

Weyland-Yutani Corporation, informally also referred to as “Wey-Yu”, founded in 2099 on Earth by the merger of Weyland Corp and Yutani Corporation, is a formerly British-Japanese conglomerate. Nowadays it is not based on a single planet of the settled systems, but on many planets and has dependencies, interests and extensive assets on almost every settled planet and owns staryards, space stations, starships, and mining and transport companies throughout the known Galaxy. Weyland-Yutani is primarily a technology supplier, manufacturing synthetics (robots with artificial intelligence that look like humans), starships and computers for a wide range of industrial and commercial clients. Weyland-Yutani’s share on research, technology development, extrasolar colonization (including various attempts of terraforming), interplanetary transport and mining, and in deep space exploration is larger than most people know.The company often acts through dependent agents, or owned brands and companies while the Weyland-Yutani itself stays in the dark pulling the strings. They have developed, or at least had their share on development of many of the most important milestones of humanity spreading throughout the known galaxy. But they also were accountable for some of history’s biggest fails and disasters, such as the deep space exploration vessel “Prometheus” that vanished with the founder of Wayland Corp onboard in 2094, the vanishing of the starfreighter “Nostromo” in 2122, the loss of the research space station “Renaissance” in 2142, and the loss of a whole colony in a nuclear meltdown of a terra-forming processor in 2179 under mysterious circumstances not completely uncovered up to today. 



The LDC Arms HAR77-90 reaches for the crown in nowadays variety of modern assault rifles, providing both, unmatched combat performance and the most awarded weapon design. It fires hyper-accelerated, energetic charged ballistic projectiles with unsurpassed power and precision thanks to advanced aim assist (AAA). It is capable of mastering various combat usecases - ranging from classic assault, mid to long-range strike to secret spec ops. A variety of possible attachments makes the weapon most versatile and is extending its genuine power.

The LDC Arms RX-ZCS reinvents the concept of the good old revolver combined with the performance of mag projectiles - but with style, and providing the LDC Arms-typical excellence regarding power, accuracy and quality. Go for it!

The Relica RL0N-25 steps up to dare the CombaTech BigBang to toss it from its throne. This next gen particle accelertor shotgun outperforms its contestant in almost any aspect. With 4 powerful particle emitters of the most advanced generation, and with according attachments even capable of mid-ranges combat comparable to assault rifles, no obstacle keeps standing in your way! Blast your highway to heaven!

The Relica PA1N-12 represents the Holy Grail of small, but somehow heavy firearms. This is not a weapon, this is a statement. Its adorable design language  alone might take the intention of pulling the trigger out of your foe's fingertips before the shootout even starts. Or was it the respect spread by its impressive appearance? Who knows... Who cares... The first shot is yours.

The Relica SP1TZ-44DF is the brand-new SMG with flechette dual-fire by default. Deadly fast and highly precise on short to medium ranges, highly versatile and light-weight. Deadly fast and deadly silent, if needed. Hot tip for all your disposal requirements.

The Weyland-Yutani SM-237 Accelerator Sniper Rifle is a high-tech, long-range precision rifle that fires accelerated particle beams with unseen precision over ranges up to 175 m. It is used exclusively by Weyland-Yutani strike forces and the UC military in various configurations.

The Armat M60A is the state-of-the-art heavy combat system utilized by most military forces, including the UC Navy. It delivers hard results with unsurpassed durability, precision, even on longer ranges than CQB. This fine piece of engineering artwork is equipped with nowadays most up-to-date technologies and  features Armat-typical ease of use and quality to safeguard you are the last one standing on the battlefield.

The Armat SR92A 'Nemesis' represents the climax in todays line of ballistic sniper rifles. It features unseen precision, power and versatility regarding customization options. It's a precision landing right between the eyes of your enemy, so to say.

The Old Earth SPAS-12 is a remnant of the great old days on Earth. Often used by enthusiasts of the long forgotten times, she is still deadly as back then. And still the old promise is to be taken literally dead-serious: Problem? - SPAS-12. Issue? - SPAS-12. 

The Old Earth SIG Sauer MCX-Spear was a multi-caliber rifle developed by the American division of SIG Sauer from the SIG MCX series of carbines. Back in time on good old Earth it was the the civilian version of the XM7 rifle used by the United States Army. 

Crimson Fleet took the combat-proven Old Earth SIG Sauer MCX-Spear and gave her a complete modernization overhaul. Reborn as MCX-Spear Advance she features a state-of-the-art ammo counter and can bear old style attachments as well as today's modern customizations that don't fit her ancestor. Some might say it's a sacrilege, while others hail to the new queen. The choice is yours...More to come...



For now, I added not-so-easy crafting recipes, so all my weapons may be crafted at an industrial workbench - if you have the required components at hand and the reqired skill levels. For immersion I will always tie those recipes to certain requirements like a skill level or a custom research project at a later point in time.The weapons are also rarely distributed via leveled lists to enemies and vendors with according level barriers so that they do not spawn right from the start.If you are lazy, you can use the console.
Just like any other mod: Install using your favorite mod manager (recommended) and follow instructions in fomod installer. Manual installation is not recommended (as the fomod installer renames particular files during installation).
Safe to add midgame.
On updates to existing weapons that are present in your inventory, those changes might not be reflected correctly by the examples already in your inventory. It might be necessary to craft them again. Changes on weapons in the inventory of NPCs get updated after 48 standard hours in another cell (= cell reset).

NOTE 1: Do not remove the mod midgame, otherwise your savegame may get corrupted because of the weapons/ammo script-injected into leveled lists!
NOTE 2: Do not switch the plugin type (full <-> medium master, e.g. during an update) of the main plugin midgame, otherwise your savegame may get corrupted!
