Questions and Answers:
Q: Why have you changed attachment pack parts to use vanilla textures?
A: I like Att pack textures but vanilla fit better with the style I feel and so they can adjust to CC paints
Q: Why do I need attachment pack
A: This uses so many attachment pack meshes and even though can do stand alone due to perms it felts wrong to do
Q: Can you do proper STS patch
A: No, dont use but the meshes provided should make it easy for someone to make a patch if they want.
Q: The right handed patch iron sites are slightly off
A: This is part of the original animation bug and not realigning everything just for something I dont use at all.
Q: The charging handle clips into the mesh on reload
A: its a minor visual bug, not worth editing the mesh to make it stupidly long like the AK vanilla anims so chose to leave it.
Q: What weapons will be next?
A: I dont know minus redoing my ITO stuff im rebuilding my own install so very random.

The assets minus attachment pack stuff (in its own folder) are free to use for mods that are not simple weapon merges.
Mods being sold for money or behind a paywall like patreon, even if its just for alphas.
Mods PROMOTING homophobia, racism, sexism, transphobia and simular discriminations.
Although technically if your removed the Attpach edits this mod could be stand alone, mods doing this DO NOT have permission minus XBOX ports whicxh are free to remove the att pack requirement.
