Weapon Types (Part 2/3)
🕑 Added 2018-06-11 05:47:22 +0000 UTC Let's take a look at the second bunch of possible weapon animation sets. Versatility of them is key, the more generic they are, the more unique weapons we and modders can add later on. The characters will then be able to hold and operate any custom weapon model in the styles similar to ones shown in the sketches below:Light Ranged Weapons
Light weapons worn as arm-guards, retractable, foldable, portable. Examples: Pistols, SMGs, organic wearable weapons (think of Half Life 1 hive gun), various energy weapons, arm-cannons, auto-crossbows, etc. There are too many possible weapon types that can use those animations, which ones will use those, is of course the question for the later discussion, but this is most versatile.
Basic yet versatile weapons like these are quick to engage and disengage with, they are literally holstered on your arms, always easy to access. Dual wielding the weapons isn't that easy however, but it is assisted with the aiming system: no need to look down the sights, you are provided with a convenient crosshair on your Heads-up display at all times.
Important note: the blocky design shown on the picture it is just a temporary thing, the actual weapons, will look very different, definitely less human in design.
Unarmed
Sometimes the situation requires you to rely just on your claws and talons, beak and teeth, tail and other harmful to others bodyparts you might posses... Even though unarmed, it is still considered a weapon type by the game system, animation set for which can also be used in tandem with special claw gloves, foot and tail wearable spikes, blades, mauls.
Light Ranged Weapons - One Handed
One handed light weapon variant for the precise individuals, ones who prefer more control and accuracy over firepower. This animation set is also suitable for usage with various hand tools that manipulate elements or designed to help fix (or break) something.
Throwing Weapons - Dual Wield
Perhaps one-handed homing throwable weapons (as seen in the previous post) are too classy for you, and you just want to unleash the primal destructive force... This dual wielding variant for such weapon type might suit that particular style better!

Absolutely! You select your own color and all your energy glowing things will appear in that color.

Will it be possible to change the weapon color?
