Miniguns Standalone
----------------------------------Originally I had intended for these to be exclusive to my combined weapons pack, but some people have asked for a standalone version, so here it is.For your enjoyment we have 3 new miniguns;
-The Personal Minigun (aka the Rockwell CZ53)
-The Avenger (aka the Rockwell CZ57)
-The Vindicator (aka the Rhinemetal AG Vindicator)
These are my own personal interpretations of miniguns from previous fallout games. Artistically I have taken the most visual cue's from Fallout Tactics, as I always thought the designs from there were the most interesting.
These guns have some awesome unique firing sounds courtesy of Ollie1994, Master7, and Magmacow358 so if you like the sounds then please give these guys some kudos!
Last but not least these weapons utilize the custom reload animations Steampunk755 kindly created for my other mod: the MK22 Heavy Machinegun. So If you havent already given him some kudos now is the time ;)
Concerning mods:
Each of the weapons has the same mod pattern, that being:
4 Recievers, 4 Barrels, 3 Sights, 2 Mags, 3 Muzzles, and 4 Ammo types.
Concerning Consoles:
