Sniper As Rifles

What this mod does:

Removes scoped view from all sniper rifles and replaces it with a circle crosshair.

Reduces recoil of all sniper rifles to allow for quicker and more accurate follow up shots.

Increases pool of available ammo for all snipers rifles.

Increases damage of the M40 to bring it more inline with the Talon 7, due in part to its much longer reload time.

Very slightly decreases the time between shots for bolt action sniper rifles in order to remove weird pause between the end of the reloading animation and being able to fire again.

Sniper rifles now use "Rifle Ammo" instead of "Sniper Ammo." Note, this means that if you have a rifle in your primary slot, and a sniper in your special slot, they will use the same pool of ammo.

There's a chance that when replacing a currently equipped special weapon with the M40 sniper, the M40 may have an additional round in the chamber (2 instead of 1). This will cause a brief skip in the reload animation after the very first shot. This will only happen once (if at all) and all remaining shots after should be fine for the remainder of the time you are carrying the M40. Super minor, and I think I have an idea on why this is might be happening, but not sure yet if/how I can fix it.

This is my first attempt at modding a game, so please let me know if you come across any other unforeseen issues.

Compatibility:

May not play well with other mods that change ammo or other configuration specs for sniper rifles.

Small compatibility issue with Slosteen's mod "Shotguns in Special Slot" where shotguns would continue to show in the merchants Primary weapon section, rather than the Special weapon section. Released optional patched version to correct this.

To Slostenn for providing directions on how to create patches for their Mod Shotguns in Special Slot.

How to Install:

Place modded Pak file into Pak folder located in "%LocalAppData%\BendGame\Saved\Paks". If Pak folder does not exist, you will need to create one.

Next, go to "Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Days Gone\BendGame\Content\sfpaks" and rename the "sfpaks" folder to "sfpakss" or whatever else you'd like. Just make sure to change the folders name.

Hope you Enjoy!
