Well....hopefully.

As some people know, I have been working on my weapons uberpack, going by the prosaic name of "Shrike's Arsenal."

Anyhow, I was wondering what people would find interesting to have in the MOD. While originally planned for use in BEL, and later MT, I have decided to expand its scope and essentially put in almost any weapon that is desired and workable under the FS2 engine. As such, it will be available for download (once complete, obviously) and use by anyone making missions and campaigns who don't want or don't know how to hack tables. It will include a *large* number of new effects, including new beam textures, muzzleglows and laser textures.

This is a list of the weapons that are currently found in it: (unless otherwise noted, weapons are new)

Fighter weapons:
Prometheus U
Circe (modified)
Shivan advanced laser

Capital ship weapons:
Terran turret weak (modified)
Terran turret (modified)
Terran huge turret (modified)
Vasudan turret
Vasudan huge turret
GTVA Pulse Turret (modified)
Plasma Cannon
NTF Turret
NTF Heavy Turret
NTF Blast Turret
Shivan Turret Laser (modified)
Shivan Megafunk Turret (modified)
Shivan Plasma Cannon
Ultra Flak

Shivan beams:
SAAA-Heavy
SSlash

Terran Beams:
AAAh (altered textures)
Heavy AAA
Light Molecular Slicer (new textures)
MGreen (new textures)
MjolnirBeam#special

Vasudan Beams:
AAAvas
ZapperVas

Machina Terra weapons: (which may or may not be a part of the final MOD. Subject to approval by Styxx)
ElecFighter (new textures)
ElecSlash (only in Shrike's Arsenal!)
ElecSmall (new textures)
ElecMedium (new textures)
ElecLarge (new textures)

Misc beams:
greentest (new textures)
AnSlash (new textures)
SAn (new textures)

Secondary weapons:
Piranha
NTF Sunburn
Shivan Bomb
Shivan Megabomb
EMP baby

Current total: 39 new or modified weapons.

Any serious requests will be looked into, and probably modded. New effects can be done, although I am not likely to make any new anis.

Current weapons that DO NOT work:
A beam weapon that has an EMP effect (no effect)
A pulse-firing (ie, swarm) turret (causes error messages to appear )

Acknowledgements: Styxx, for the Electrobeams, and the dude who gave me the idea for the plasma cannons (was it Ice Heart...?)

Being God of the universe is a little more important than being the "God" of a forum.

Don't make me get all Jonah on your sorry ass. The interior of whales happen to be far less attractive than the exteriors.

Your banal declarations do little more than amuse me. How am I to know these things? Computers and games, bah! Last week I just received my collection of Beatles vinyl records and that's as high-tech as I care to have it in heaven! Most of you mortals have chosen to forsake me, so I shall forsake you (And that works out fairly well anyways since we have a housing shortage up here. I'm waiting for the cast and crew of This Old House to die so we can finally start putting up some condos. But hell has been horribly overcrowded since that whole 40-days/nights flooding fiasco or whatever the hell I did a few thousand years ago - You'll be sorry when you get there).

My lawyers inform me that I can no longer smite you specks for doubting me. So instead I'll insult you: Yo momma is so fat, when I said 'Let there be light!' I had to tell her to move her fat ass out of the way! (And thata actually happened with Delta Burke)

ways to smite god:

God some people wrote a new book of herecy found [url="http://vbb.volition-inc.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/001723.html"]here[/url] I suggest you read this blasphemy.

And yes, that's the Monty Python God
