Rangemaster Remaster (Classic Hunting Rifle)

This is an overhaul of my old Rangemaster. Every single part has been retouched in some way, and several new ones have been added, along with new features. It looks better, feels better, and plays better.

The Colt Rangemaster is a civilian sport rifle that was popular before the war in much the same way as our real world AR-15 platform. I designed my version to loosely resemble the real world AR-16 and 18, which were attempts to simplify the AR-15/M16 platform for export. The core "Standard" version is set up to resemble the variant from Fallout 1 and 2, while the "Wasteland" parts create a silhouette more akin to that seen in Fallout Tactics. The top tier, "Match", represents what a professional shooter might do with aftermarket parts.

Remember that this is not an assault rifle. It should be thought of  primarily as a marksman rifle, but I did include an automatic receiver, and it can be configured to resemble an AR, or even an SMG if desired.

Try it for New Vegas as well.

Features

-A standard array of semi-auto receivers and one automatic. It kicks like a mule, so bursts are your friend.

-Barrels and foregrips are separated, so 3 barrels and 4 foregrips

-4 stocks, and a no stock option

-Wood materials, black synthetic materials, and 4 faction paints

-5 tape options, and one for no tape

-All standard scopes and sights, plus a medium recon, and a set of competition aperture sights

-1 unique variant in an unmarked quest

-Ammo conversion options for 5. 56, 5mm, . 308, . 45, . 44, . 38, and 10mm, plus different magazine options depending on whether you're using rifle or pistol rounds. More about how this works down below.

-Damage adjustment options for a 25, 50, 75, or 100% bonus.

-An alternate .esp that does things more like the base game, if you like to keep things simple.

-Animations from Ha_ru, originally made for the AKM, they fit quite well. No more HMAR animations means no more Nuka World requirement.

-Reload Sounds from NAvarro, also from the AKM.

-Over 130 textures, handmade in GIMP, and mostly in 2k.

Replacer Plugins

- Added two optional files to replace vanilla weapons, one for the Hunting Rifle and one for the Combat Rifle. These files include only a new plugin to replace the default one, you still need the main file or loose files for the meshes, textures, materials, etc.

- The replacers do so by replacing the vanilla weapon within its base Leveled Lists. Please be aware that this may result in conflicts with other mods that edit Leveled Lists.

- Unique weapons will be unchanged.

-Works best with a new game.
