[]Yet Another Revamped Weapon (YARW) is a STANDLONE weapons & gameplay overhaul mod. It is NOT COMPATIBLE with Yet Another Weapon (YAW) OR ANY of YAW's expansion, extension or derivative mods! This is because YARW is a replacement all in one mod built off of YAW's source files.
[
]Mods that REQUIRE Yet Another Weapon (YAW), Yet Another Weapon Clan (YAWC), Yet Another Obscure Weapon (YAOW), YAW/YAWC-Addons or any other YAW-Based weapon mod will be 100% compatible with YARW being used instead. Please DO NOT have YAW or YAW-Derived mods installed as IT WILL break things if you do! Any current play-through will work fine if swapping YAW/YAW-derivative mods for YARW. More information about compatibility can be found further down this page.-

]"YetAnotherRevampedWeaponClan"- A clan weapon expansion.[]"YARW_Essentials"- A patch and vanilla content file that prevents other mods from overwriting some of YARW's content. It is REQUIRED for YARW to work properly.
[]Mod Options support (MO): In addition to all of the MO available in YAW, YARW adds lots more. Such options include toggles to disable non-lore friendly weapons, more weapon stat sliders and many gameplay option toggles like the ability to disable AI from using heat-damage projectiles. [b
