Modding this game is cursed and I decided tonight to just release it as is and save myself from getting more headaches. I even tried manually editing out the popping from your original audio files and the game still was adding pops in-between when it plays each file.

It's not quite as nice as I'd like, I'm bummed out I couldn't get the weapon sounds from AvP or A:CM to loop properly, but oh well.

Been working on it most of the day, not having a ton of luck. I recorded some gunfire from A:CM to use, as well as tested with other Pulse Rifle sound effects from various sources, but no matter what I do with this game it doesn't play nicely with the audio. Audio popping is gone, but now there's like a very obvious fraction of a second gap between when each gunfire sound plays and it sounds ♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Which is weird, since making fully automatic weapon audio in other Source games like L4D2 and Gmod is pretty easy, I've never had issues like this. I'll keep toying with it, but unfortunately I don't think I'm gonna figure out a solution. :steamsad:

No, he didn't. He assumed it's bad but I insisted that it's good. He agreed to make it public if I'll upload it.

Thanks for the link, did they originally upload this mod somewhere else? I don't see any workshop items on their profile.
YOJIMBO  [author] Mar 12, 2021 @ 3:38am 
Sure, just make sure you mention the original creator

The Smart Gun sound effect is bugged, it only plays properly if you fire a single shot, otherwise it just keeps playing the first millisecond of audio over and over. There's also a popping sound happening with the Pulse Rifle. :winter2019sadyul:

If I work on some better sounds for this, would you mind me uploading that for others to use? I'll leave everything else the same and of course credit you and Flogger.

As a huge alien fan, I love this :steamhappy:
Mel May 18, 2017 @ 5:04pm 
I really wish this applied to the minigun as well. It seems really cool. I just never have a reason to use the autogun! :steamsad:

nice weapons add in game :D
AskingForTrouble May 10, 2017 @ 12:07pm 
I know that it SHOULD be obvious, but it would be really convenient to add which weapons that these skins replace. Based on the description, I'm guessing:
M41a 'Pulse' Rifle - Standard level 1 rifle
M59 'Smart Gun' - Level 1 auto gun
M240 Incinerator - Flamer
Dronnix May 8, 2017 @ 4:23am 
Very cool! Please, more weapon. And i like and subscribe :mkb:

Smartgun audio should be turned up to match the pulse rifle.
Ronarch May 5, 2017 @ 11:51am 
The volume of the sound of the smart gun is too low, and seems distorted.
Total covered by other smaller guns.

Read the desc
Ronarch May 1, 2017 @ 11:37am 
So which guns in the game apply these skins?
Loonaaaaaaaaaa May 1, 2017 @ 2:41am 
Good ♥♥♥♥

Any chance you could make Colonial Marine Skins?
tito Apr 30, 2017 @ 3:47am 
amazing.
the next step is to-convert-every-single-swarm-alien-to-a-type-of-xenomorph mod.
anyone know where to get one?
DeviousDave Apr 28, 2017 @ 3:07am 
Awesome skins, shame it doesn't replace the tech rifle too but otherwise excellent work :)
Mr. Bibbles Apr 26, 2017 @ 4:55pm 
Hey, Jimbo, I sent a friend request just to ask you a question. Just a temporary request
Шелл Apr 25, 2017 @ 6:45am 
fix sound machine gun
[THE CRUNCH]* Chet Apr 24, 2017 @ 10:15pm 
Love this mod.
Horizon Apr 24, 2017 @ 6:51pm 
really great though I love the scanner, pulse rifle, and flamer. Just make louder and fix autogun.
Horizon Apr 24, 2017 @ 6:51pm 
can you fix the autogun sound. It sounds really laggy and bad. Look up the autogun sound it sounds like the pulse rifle. Make the sounds louder for all of the guns.
Galahad Apr 24, 2017 @ 3:57pm 
awesome mod! what did the models come from or are they original?
been looking at the possibillity of porting Colonial marines models for SMG/PDW and shotgun ect Also any info on porting Avp2 or Colonial marines player models?
Dougal Apr 24, 2017 @ 3:19pm 
We do have reason to believe that a xenomorh may be involved.
player Apr 24, 2017 @ 4:22am 
Mandatory for this game
Dean42 Apr 23, 2017 @ 8:18pm 
just a another bug hunt for these favorite days....
文杰 Apr 23, 2017 @ 11:20am 
all we need are Colonial Marine models
The Sid Man Apr 23, 2017 @ 10:00am 
Good mod but the rifle cycling sound needs more work, Colonial Marines has THEE perfect sound for the pulse rifle/smart gun fire. Try and get those if you can!
SuperUltraSucc Apr 23, 2017 @ 3:33am 
love it, add more
RedWateR Apr 23, 2017 @ 2:41am 
nice
Max Dickings Apr 22, 2017 @ 11:55am 
I'd have to mirror everyone else's sentiments - fantastic mod, just the autogun sound doesn't work too well. I'll sub again when its fixed, until then I'm using it with the autogun sound file removed :)
Vulpes_Inculta Apr 22, 2017 @ 7:25am 
Indeed it's a great job but Autogun sounds bad... Could u please return it's original sound?
Kokorocodon Apr 21, 2017 @ 5:19pm 
This is so sexy!
