📋 About This Mod

Made by DaiShi Description: This MOD adds H&K L30 Gatling Laser (the GL from all the previous Fallouts) to FO3. Weap is the same as normal Gatling Laser, except it uses Energy Weapons skill. And since i used the minigun rig it needs more time to spin up. Can be repaired w Gatling Lasers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installation: Unzip it in Data folder it comes w 3 .esps: Gatling Laser for Casdin - Allows u to exchange GL w Protector Casdin (same value as plasma rifle) HK L30 Gatling Laser (replacer).esp - simply replaces Gatling Lasers and ammo packs w custom ones. HK L30 Gatling Laser.esp - places 2 Custom Gatling Lasers in game. Locations: Washington Monument top, Reilly\'s Rangers compound and Citadel Lyon\'s Den. Optional files - cuz every 2nd ppl commented weap should be bigger (thou i dont agree :P) ive made a bigger weapon model - i\'ve included pipboy image w description copy it in Data folder (let it overwrite) if u need them. - if u dont like the backpacks there are backpackless meshes and .esps included, copy them into Data Folder if u need them. - included beamless .esps, copy them in Data folder (let it overwrite) if u need them. - ver 1. 0 sound file still included as optional, copy it in Data folder (let it overwrite) if u need them. - by request ive added an optional texture which will disable LAM (Laser Aiming Module) NOTE: - USE ONLY 1 esp there are some overlaps in them which can cause problems (Casdin .esp not included) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 1. 2: Made bigger weap mesh, plz note i wont make it any bigger (to tell the truth i cant wout remodelling some parts) Made optional file to disable LAM, plz note if u use any other weap mod that uses Nopheros LAM beam it ll probably kick out those too. Added an extra .esp that adds Gatling Lasers to Casdins exchange list (works w vanilla GLs so my custom H&K L30 Gatling Laser is not on the list) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update 1. 1: Made beamless version for both backpacked and non-backpacked version. Replacers now have custom ammo world models. Extracted original sound files from FO2. now thats default included the 1 made from gostyralu\'s for Fallout 2 Weapons Sounds Ressource as optional. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Known Issues: - the ammo lock is not in its place in 3rd person view looks like its placed where the miniguns lock should be, dunno if theres anything i can do about it ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Credits: - gostyralu: for Fallout 2 Weapons Sounds Ressource, thx i didnt have to search for the sounds myself. (http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=4656) - Nopheros: for Laser Pointer for Silenced 10mm Pistol, i used the laser pointer from
