Feel free to change them up as much as you like. I'm not too big a fan of the rifle sprite, but the pistol looks awesome.

To give more context to my designs, I was going for a more heavy look to them, as these weapons are rather weighted. Thus huge and square. This fact may help further interesting design changes.

If possible, for the next 1.5 verison I'd make them a bit more rounded (eg. around the edges) and less square so these may look a bit more original...otherwise..who cares! 

I may make other designs, but I'm currently working on other projects not related to OpenXcom. Shaving off a pixel or two may should be easy for someone else to do, I personally like the meaty square look. But that's just me.

I really wanted to use this mod pack, but when i installed it every time i went to run openxcom it would say "openxcom has stopped working". this makes me sad.

I'm also wondering about this as we've actually reached version 1.0.

I put the SW pistol down a pixel. I thought that would Fix it. In my opinion it looked fine however

Here are images of the guns I made. I would appreciate it if they were previewed in the first post for easy reference.

I sent the files to Solarius Scorch. He can choose whether or not to add them into his mod.

I have made a whole new sprite set for the weapons that soldiers use as well as some new sounds. I hope folks like them as i drew them from scratch

Is there a way i could take something i've drawn in another program and just convert it to 256 colours? I find all these other programs tedious to use.

I really appreciate all this help. I'll see what I can do with this information.

I'm very willing to make sprites at least for the inventory, these weapon design inspirations keep me up at night. As for making sprites for the battlescape... well that might be hard. I have no idea what I'm doing, I've been using Paint tool sai as my actual drawing program and Gimp as a file type converter, I don't actually have Photoshop but i can try to get myself a copy somehow.

I'm not sure how well I understood your instructions, but I'll see what i can do with the tools I have available. I was hoping there were tutorials on Youtube but that's not the case.

So, I wanted to see if I could make my own inventory sprites for the gauss weapons (namely the pistol) and I've been having a lot of trouble. I don't see how the sprite mod information on the wiki translates to gun mods. I've tried just changing the sprite, but that doesn't go over well. How in the world did you do this? For those who are curious, I'll provide a preview of the pistol design I had in mind (It's actually too big for the inventory grid)


By the way, I love this mod. I've forsaken plasma, lasers and almost everything in favor of only gauss weaponry!
