FUTURE PLANS & IDEAS​

- Overhaul mission rewards
- Separate SR4 weapon models from their attachments
- Adjust the money cap (current limit: $20,000,000) (not possible due to how money works)
- Rework the in-game economy (property values, rewards)
- Introduce collectible-based unique rewards
- Adjust survival call mechanics to tie them into story progression
- Implement a limit adjuster to add new weapons without replacing existing ones
- Restore or develop a toggle system for dual-wielding
- Implement attachments as a separate system instead of tiered upgrades

NOTES​

This mod is an ongoing project, and updates will be posted as progress is made. Stay tuned for future changes and improvements!

I always felt like the weapons in SR3 needed a complete overhaul, between the fact that you can't remove upgrades and that you only really have two different loadouts (law enforcement and criminal weapons) beside the laser, virtual and joke weapons. So I'll definitely be following this project. Best of luck.

And btw, the last update of SRIV Customization Items has become a mainstay in my SR3 modlist. So, big thanks and much love.
 
Really glad you're working on this project again!
These pictures are awesome as well, seeing a Luchadore with an LMG and a Morningstar with a Tommy gun is just so fitting.

My personal suggestion for the Thompson's name : Stilwater Typewriter (kind of a mouthful lol)

Thanks! I'm glad we agree.

So far I've come up with these:
- .45 Johnson
- SYN-45 (Johnson) Sweeper
- Johnny SYN-45

Stilwater Typewriter really IS a mouthful.
