[mercy]

Must go to (in case of windows 7) C:\Users\<yourusername>\Documents\OpenXcom here can find it.

OMG! It works!    Thank You.  The sniper rifle is really awesome in action!!

Indeed! I killed a sectoid from ver far far distante with the accuracy shot. Its a fun weapon

i've attached an updated version to the opening post including the adjustments for list weights.

@toshiaki2115: if you could upload a sound file for the rifle, i can show you how to add it in.

This is very good addition to the game! I've even made up new class of soldiers - sniper (who has enough strength and decent accuracy). In all missions I always have 2 snipers, they are distinct from other soldier classes, as sniper rifle is more accurate than most weapons, but require many TUs to shoot. I use heavier version and I think it has pretty well balanced stats.

Recommend this mod to everyone! 

Now we need some kind of advanced-with-alien-technology version of sniper rifle, to use in later game!

toshiaki2115: with your permission, i'd like to add a sound and projectile sprite for this.

It seem i am doing something wrong installing the mod.
I played the files in their folders and tried both rulesets, but no matter which one i add to the config, OX crashes on startup...

Is there something special to do because of the 2 differnt versions?

best regards

which version of openxcom are you using? 0.9 (called "stable") or the latest git build? if you are NOT using the latest git build, you should go ahead and use it. I believe the whole modding with ruleset and adding graphics stuff was added after 0.9...

I switched to the newest version today, learned it the hard way

Hi I'm having a little trouble getting this mod to work. I'm using the latest git build and when I start a mission it crashes with an error of Vector::_M_range_check. Can anyone help.

[ShadeTrigger]

Actually I think it broke all the weapon mods cause I also tried Combat Knife, Grenade Launcher, and Custom Grenades. All crashed with same error. Current build I'm using is openxcom_git_master_2013_09_21_1709.

[Hadan]

Combat Knife, Grenade Launcher, and Custom Grenades.

Funny, with the new GIT-version I was able to get the Sniper to work for the first time.
I also use all the mods you mentioned, except the knife, all work fine.

[luke83]

from my experience , M-Range_checks are a result of me doing something wrong in the ruleset

[ShadeTrigger]

Strange. I haven't edited the ruleset. I even tried on a clean install.
