Welcome to my mod. Since I've been playing Vegas 1 & 2 I've heard people complain that certain weapons in the game just aren't realistic. So I researched the weapons in the game and found... They were right! While I haven't adjusted characteristics like the steadiness (or lack thereof) of the weapons when being held or fired (yet, I just might later), I have changed just about everything else. WARNING!!! This mod increases the realism of the game, i.e. it is even more difficult. But since the game has been out for a while I thought people might be up for a little more of a challenge. I adjusted all the weapons to have characteristics closer to the real ones. Most weapons now have slightly better penetration. Weight and fire rate is also now proportional to the real weapon's. I took away unlimited pistol ammo. Movement speed is now proportional to the weapon's weight. Ammo carrying ability is also more realistic. Weapons feature realistic fire select options. Realistic silencers & more.
Here are some screenshots from the game to show some stats of all the modified weapons.
The stats are all relative to the rest of the guns in the game. And as the models haven't been changed I wanted to give people something to look at. In the original game there was very little variation between guns in a particular group (Shotguns, Assault Rifles, etc). By browsing the pictures you can get a decent idea of how the guns relate to each other. I would however be great if Vegas 2 did have more stats like fire rate, weight, or recoil.
Glock 18: Weapon comes with a 33 round magazine, but the game allows for an extended clip. So I made the default magazine the "real life optional" 17 round magazine and the extended clip gives you the 33 round one. Automatic fire mode has realistic rate of fire, so you use bullets up fast. Can be equipped with a silencer in real life, but the animation that attaches the silencer does not exist, so it doesn't work. Because of this I used the 9x19mm JHP +P+ supersonic round with this gun to give it a little more punch.
Excuse me, suppressor not silencer. Also, it would be unrealistic to suppress this gun as it has a ported barrel. Although you could swap out the barrel, but this would increase the muzzle rise considerably.
