KICOTEK MACHINIST ANIMATION OVERHAUL
w/ Kicotek Lore Accurate 'Modern' Machinist Weaponry
A very long time making this mod pack and yet I still felt I was horrifically slow with making it. A pack literally born from me custom tailoring a shirt only made for males... to females and upon seeing a glock on it. I thought of how it'd be so great if there was lore accurate alternatives instead. From this I made three weapon with all my lacking knowledge in blender... and then... started making associated animations to work with it.
During this I also worked on the Skelomae devkit and discovered how to properly manipulate skeletons which has allowed me to add custom skeletons to the guns themselves as well! Allowing the magazine to be removable on the carbine and even allow the hammer to be movable on the pistol as well... but I'll experiment with the possibilities of this at a later date
ANYWAY! Enough of my story. This pack, or rather pack(s), contains a full slew of animations for shotguns currently... and just a little bit for the carbine. The weaponry pack containing the associated three weapons I have made as well. Fully functioning as they are and ready for use out and about.
Do be aware the weapons themselves replace the steel-barreled musketoon a level 34 machinist weapon buyable at any city-state weapons dealer.
Now due to the packs themes of being much more lore accurate. I introduce an entire passage of lore! Be prepared for an incredibly long and possibly boring set of letters arranged to form sentences!

KICOTEK
Objects made under Kicotek are guaranteed to be made from fully salvaged allagan and magitek parts. Fully repurposed, reused, and compatible with other machinations that use the very same parts.
Despite the salvaged nature of the parts these objects are often exceptionally functional with only a few minor bugs or faults that should never come back to harm the user when used correctly. Anyone skilled with allagan or magitek equipment will have minor troubles properly understanding how these objects work initially but an expert will likely figure it all out with ease. However, due to the nature of the creator of Kicotek, Kicotek equipment is not quite widespread as of now since the maker does not and can not mass produce them.
