📋 About This Mod
Basically, I made this mod to make the . 22 pistol less of a \"pea shooter\" Here is a small list of what i have done to improve this weapon while keeping balance. 1. Changed the firing sound to the silenced 10mm sound, The regular sound Sounds like a BB Gun 2. Ramped the damage up to 26 to make it useful for stealthy players 3. Changed critical damage to 50 for the same reasons above 4. Increases value to keep it balanced Alright guys, That\'s about it, Keep in mind this is my first mod (That iv\'e released on nexus) Let me know what you think should be changed if there is a need! Final note: I\'m not sure if this will force the weapon to use milenia\'s retextures, I use the WRP, So it might use that file, And this could be problematic if i don\\\'t have the proper permissions, However Let me know, If this is so, I will take this down Hope you enjoy! Installation: Just unpack with WINRAR. and place in your data folder or use NMM (Nexus Mod Manager)
