A simple fix for the 'Raising the Bar: Redux' physcannon by making it feel less clunky.
"It's pretty clunky, but it gets the job done!"
Main:
Myself and a friend noticed the RTB:R physcannon can feel impractical to use. This addon aims to fix that.
I've included files which edit the default animations used for the weapon. The animations have been tweaked by several frames to make a visible gameplay difference and shouldn't look visually distracting.
I have tried my best to replicate the speed of the 'Half-Life 2' gravity gun. It's not 100% accurate but I am still satisfied with the end result.
Extra:
This includes a bonus version I created, the "Quickdraw" physgun - I've doubled the animation speed.
Gordon shows off his INSANE wrist power which puts Alyx to shame and most importantly, impresses Skitch.
> INSTALLATION:
Install / uninstall instructions are provided in the 'Readme' inside the mod folder. The steps are easy to follow.

It's been 84 years...
Seriously though, the weapons in this mod are great how you can fire them before their pullout animation is finished, but it's like it wasn't implemented for the physcannon.
My headcanon was they intentionally altered it to make the weapon feel more heavy to use... but realistically it probably is just a mistake tbh.
Well if Skitch approves...
