Weapon Mesh Improvement Mod
■ Two mods in one! At first, there was a bouncy gun on back,
but I couldn't make it compatible with Armed to the Teeth.
Quicksilver incited me to make a new one. Tho, he "forgot"
to mention it'd bring 5 months of mad burnout and despair.
■ 15 visible holstered weapon sockets for the player model:
● 2 on back for rifles, launchers, swords, big melee
● 1 frontal sling (uses one back socket) for rifles
● 2 under arms for rifles, pistols, big melee
● 2 on hips for pistols
● 2 on back belt for pistols
● 2 on lower back for knives
● 2 on belt sides for throwables
● 2 on upper belt sides for melee
● 1 misc on chest for binoculars or a camera
■ Fully automatic, hotkey-based sockets mapping for easy use
No more 9mm pistol or a switchblade on your shoulder. This
mod applies logical slings positions for weapons, based on
their type. But you still control the socketing order.
■ Carefully fine-tuned physics sim for all
