📋 About This Mod
Replaces the SMG-37 Defender or the SMG-72 Pummeler with a DC-17M from Star Wars with the option to also replace audio
Choose from two DC-17M options or install both
DC-17M (Defender replacement)
DC-17M (Pummeler replacement)
The audio replacement will only work for the Pummeler. Trying to use it with the Defender will cause the Defender to be silent. I currently have no way to get around this issue as they share audio files and the Defender does not want to work.
