📋 About This Mod

This mod aims to remake the Super Shotgun with a more familiar colour palette pulled right out of DOOM II.

This mod is currently in version 1. 0, however I do have plans for the future.

To do list:

- Red Muzzle Flash based on the original sprite.

- Custom textures, no more engravings. (Optional Download)

- Unused SSG Hammers (Optional Download)

- New Sounds

- New Model (Maybe)

If you have any problems with this mod, feel free to ping me in the Doom Modding Discord server!
