📋 About This Mod

So i made 5 new mods for the Gauss rifle (including my glow sight mod) then i gave them some new textures... then i wanted power armor that matched... and then i wanted even better electrical gauss rifle projectiles... and now this mod has

So this has been on the workbench since i first charged a 2mm EC in the commonwealth... and got dissapointed visually...

My other Mod; Electrical Projectiles, is included as standard in this mod, as i wouldnt be using the Gauss Rifle without it. So if you are using this mod there is no need to keep Electrical Projectiles.

It replaces the Gauss Rifle explosion and muzzle flash effects with a smaller version of the EMP grenade, it looks awesome in my humble opinion :)

I was playing around with the force of the projectile and explosion earliar today and will upload some different force level versions of the .esp at some point (what goes up must come down right?... but im still waiting for a molerat... dont think im going to be able to loot him any time soon)

Other than that this should be compatible with most things, other textures could overwrite mine but only the shroud dds and gaussrifle_s.dds have original names.

Should be more Gauss Rifles out in the commonwealth and way more 2mm EC ammunitions out there as well. Can be found at much lower levels as well (makes raiders a little more interesting) but any chance of npc's getting the gun seems pretty low still

Added a Semi-Lore friendly addon! its an attachment to the main reciever making the Gauss Rifle into the Gauss Laser Assisted Electrical Rifle! or G. L. A. E. R for short ;) (this is only a quick fix the meshes are still in early stages and i havnt made/changed any textures for them yet)

Aaand now it has a texture to go with the rest! After about an hour or so of playing ze game i had reposition and scale the G. L. A. E. R attachment in Nifskope to reduce the clipping a bit, i think it looks a whole lot better now for such a small change, so yeah Lore Friendly has been updated and there is a new textured option for it now too :) I was so tempted to call it the L. A. G. E. R :p but i like this gun too much to make it a joke just yet. Uploaded a screenshot of it, its still a W. I. P (added textured screenshot)

Big update (still) incoming soon! Needs to rebuild it to be more craftable with less versions :/ ... Ive been busy battling with weapon mods try to get them into the game and haven't had much time to come back to this one, but I have some plans for it.

I'm going to separate the gauss rifle part of this mod into its own standalone weapon (with an updated mesh and some more mods) and then Thunderstruck can be the home of the PA paint and Weapon texture. (I have some textures for the L. A. E. P and K. A. T. A. N. A to match this that I will upload here soon)

And for the gauss rifle's standalone version, i really cant decide how to rename it, I quite like calling it the G. L. A. E. R but part of me thinks it should be rearranged to L. A. E. G. R as it makes more sense that way, What do peoples think?? drop a comment or message me.
