Btw I apologize, I'd have .gifs up but my graphics card just blew yesterday and I'm running onboard, just pressing print screen lags me to hell to the point where the gif is really skippy.

Otherwise enjoy for now =p I'll work on some later when I get this thing replaced.

This mod is very basic for now. Good, but still basic. One of the thing I would request is add tiny glows on the ice and lava weps. For the lava, make it shot 1 color or 2 nearly equal colors that die into a orange that die in a yellow that go darkening till cool down, just like magma. First stage that still very hot, make with a small glow with the particle's color. When get the yellow, add a tiny glow of yellow and darker for the the darker yellows, till the black cooled magma. Of course, add smkoe for it AND nitrogen smoke thing too. Try use 2 colors that don't contrast-conclict.

yeah, the lava gun looks like its shooting ketchup and mustard right now.

And if you want to do glow, ask Whitty, he invented them basically.

Blah blah blah. The sound wave thing gun is really useless. Nothing special. Maybe make a the shoot gib into a rotating ring of pure sharpness ;D

yea its worthless for now I'm trying to keep it from becoming a bigger shotgun <.< I'm still trying to find a way to apply a huge velocity air blast at them and launch them backwards.

I has an idea to solve the Huge mass/velocity without the kickback problem: dropships.
I got the idea from grifs Abomb, but my idea was that what if the gun fires an invisible or nearly invisible dropship that instantly gibs the second its created, releasing the particles contained within? Kind of like a directed grenade launcher, witha controlled explosion.

Weird but sounds almost overcomplicated, the kick isn't that bad, I mean its not like you can fly it like a jetpack given its ammo capacity =p

The shockwave cannon when used with a dummy however will fly you backwards, its fine with heavy and light soldiers from my tests, just kicks kinda hard.

See: Emitter based weaponry for no kickback.

Ask Shook.

I'm talkin bout REALLY huge mass and velocity, the kind that'll squish ya on a single shot.

Great mod. The sprites are absolutely beautiful, good job on them. The functions of the guns themselves, though not very creative; are still quite fun.

The liquid nitrogen gun is good, don't need to do anything to that other than maybe adding a slight glow on the ice, as others have said. The lava gun is an unoriginal idea, gun sprite still looks nice though. Would look nicer with a glow on the lava as well.

The flak gun is the most original; amongst all of them. Unfortunately, it is a little too heavy and reloads a little too slowly; not really as balanced as the others. Bio gun, same advice as the lava gun. Shockwave cannon is just not useful.

Overall, the sprites are nice, but I hope you have more original ideas in the future.

Shockwave cannon is useful. You can push away actors blocking your way and rip off arms without killing. I would suggest to up the shockwave power to fight mpams.
