the mod seems pretty straight forward at first but then you realise it is a hassle just to figure out what tools you need to make some parts for the ammo a guide for the prosses for how things are working would be great so far i cant recomend that mod at all

Do you have any plans to update to B42, or would you be okay with someone reuploading a B42 version with credits?
Love your mods and would love to see this in my 42 mod list!!

hey are there settings that allow you to lower rarity the items found in this mod?

krabi, the mod works great :), no more errors, thanks!!

Hopefully fixed the melee break error, let me know if it persists. As for 5,45, I won't be adding any new content now but possibly when B42 releases.

Hi krabi, great mod, have you think add the ability in a future update to craft 5.45 ammo from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R VFE pack?, and idk why, but i get an error when a melee weapon breaks :(

I will test today, appreciate all your hard work! :)

Released an update that should make the mod compatible with most crossbows, no matter the source mod. If anything doesn't work, let me know!

Thank you and sorry again for the annoyance, not sure what the easiest way to accomplish that would be, but if a 'casing blacklist' based on weapon/ammo ID or even a 'whitelist per caliber' is possible it might add full compatibility at the cost of some user input.
But like I said regardless, appreciate your work and your mod, and it's in my opinion, the most well balanced and intuitive mod of its kind. Cheers!

I won't get around to it on the weekend, but I'll see what I can do on Monday. I'll try to work out a more comprehensive fix that should fix any bolt-type ammo.

So sorry to ask this of you but if you were willing to do the same treatment for the full version of the mod it'd be much appreciated (mangled shell casings on 2 handed crossbows)

You should also consider creating a donations page, regardless of your answer thank you for your hard work! <3

Works like a charm, cheers!

You are a saint, bless your heart. Been fudging around with crossbow varients and mod orders all night trying to get them to work xD Thank you!

I've uploaded an update that should fix the issue, if it doesn't download try unsubbing and resubbing to my mod.

It treats the two handed crossbows as a rifle but the ammor isn't recognized thus dropping mangled casings, works perfectly as long as I ignore the casings long enough for the floor loot to roll around lol. This mod is really well implemented, made me disable snakes ammo maker and this paired with nihilists silencers and VFE make for a far more enjoyable/balanced gunplay experience.

Oh sorry link isn't working, it's 'Kitsune's Crossbow Re-Remastered' it's a condensing of Remastered Kitsune's Crossbow Mod

Which mod specifically is this?

Any chance for an addon for crossbow mods or even just a sandbox option to blacklist weapons from dropping casings?
Your mod is a must have, but its ruining my fun choosing between crossbows that drop mangled casings or no crossbows. BTW love the mangled casings feature all things considered, allows normally incompatible gun mods to have immersive continuity rather than some guns just don't drop shells.

@krabi
If memory serves, since the Arsenal 2.0 update, their mod nativly has the ability to collect spent brass as you fight. :)

Probably not at the moment, I'm busy with life. The crafting itself is easy enough to implement, but Brita's and similar mods interfere with the code for dropping empty casings which is already a cobbled together mess that I don't want to debug.

@krabi
Any possible chance you'll make a Brita's / arsenal compatible version of this? I'd love to have one that is. I'd even be wiling to commission it if possible? :)

Cheers! Many thanks for that!

I've added the list as a discussion thread.

Steam is obfuscating the URl and corrupting/stripping the decryption key in your zerobin link. Could you please repost it?

So, the crafting of ammo from scratch is pretty involved.
Any plans for a tutorial?

Thanks, that worked.

You can use a screwdriver on any tire to get 3 weights, you can also find them in garages and such. Once you have 10, stand next to a barbecue or campfire outside and the recipe should be available.

Hello, and thank you for the mod.
Can you tell me exactly how melting tire weights works?
Thanks.

Not necessarily, but the new items will only generate in places you haven't been to before, so if you've looted all the gun stores on the map you do need a new one.

does this need a new save?

You don't have to be subscribed to them, my mod comes with the necessary code files integrated. I'm just giving them appropriate credit.

The description mentions that Lua Timers and Item Tweaker are used in this mod, but you didn't add them to the page as required mods. They are a hard requirement, right?

Whoa that was fast. Thanks again krabi

Released an update, the book should spawn in regular houses now.

Yes, but we'll be able to prepare some ingredients for the bullets right away.

Well even if you find the book, you can't do anything without the mechanical equipment (powder scale, reloading press) and that only spawns in gun stores anyway.

I just thought that obtaining the book would be difficult when you start in areas
that have no gun stores nearby.
Also thank you so much for adding the removal list.

I'm sorry if I'm asking a bit too much but could you add a bit more spawning areas for the handbooks please? and a list of world item removal for casings would be really helpful
since they can't be used until you find the book

The handbook only appears in gun stores, as does all the mechanical equipment. Nitrate and sulphur are found in the same places where you'd find NPK fertilizer, sulphuric acid spawns in school cabinets.

Does the handbook only spawns in gun stores? Also can we find all the materials
that are used for crafting bullets in regular houses or somewhere specific?

video pls
