Realistic Weapon Overhaul Mod

For those who are looking for more vanilla friendly and balanced experience, I have a newer and better mod scratch-made by me:

SupremacyArms - Realistic Weapon Balance Overhaul

SupremacyArms is a refined, polished and balanced version of the Realistic Weapon Overhaul mod, offering the same weapons as the vanilla GTA IV, but keeping the RWO's hardcore gameplay. This is ideal for those who love the overall concept of Realistic Weapon Overhaul, but don't want to go too far away from the vanilla IV.

____________________________________________

RWO's one of my older works, it's discontinued now so if you encounter any bugs, keep in mind that this mod pack is quite old and is no longer maintained.

SupremacyArms is a much better option, trust me!

____________________________________________

Realistic Weapon Overhaul is aimed at rebalancing the whole shooting experience so that every single weapon was worth shooting and there were no bad and good weapons. Every weapon now is good in its own way, and the gameplay is WAY harder, so keep that in mind.

The mod is made using various mods made by other creators, all I did here here was editing the weaponinfo file to make it all work together. If you want to download the mods RWO's made of separately, all links and credits are attached.

Changelog:

Damage increased

Bullet spread adjusted (for shotguns only, for bullet spread for other weapons see Recommended mods in the readme file)

Effective range increased

Number of rounds picked up on the street adjusted

Max. number of ammo carried adjusted

Physics force increased (how much peds are kicked when hit)

Clip size adjusted

Shot echo increased

RPG rocket speed increased

*Parameters above are adjusted based on real-life ammo power, caliber, barrel length, mag capacity, ammo weight etc, in some cases I set the parameters based on real life shooting videos from YouTube xD

The only thing that is totally mine is weaponinfo.xml, I made it specifically for the weapons included in the mod:
