Thank you so much Aze. comments like make what we do worth while :)

I have updated the front page to include the 'Final' version, which addresses the crashing bug and has a new fire sound (thanks Hemi)
I also upped the ammo to 50 from 40 and decreased reload time, slightly.

Hunting Rifle Final Version (I hope)


Thank you to everyone who has supported and downloaded this mod.

Omg I have been waiting for this for ages! I will be using this on my server now for sure! :D

I noticed something...

IT IS WHITELISTED!!! :eek:
Congratz Braindead! :)

However, it doesn't seem to benefit from the reload speed nor the hidden RoF-bonus (which the LAR has). I dunno if it benefits from the damage bonus (although, it likely does)

yay thanks Aze and thank you TWI :)

not sure on the perk stuff, wouldn't we have to create server perk stuff to have custom perks added?

Actually you're wrong. It doesn't benefit any bonuses apart from when you're a sharpshooter you get 50% headshot bonus and commando where you get the % reload speed.

Which is what i said/asked :confused:

The important part was that it is now whitelisted...

I noticed that too... I wish it did get bonuses, that would toss this weapon out of my "i use it for fun" catagory and into my "i use it cause its the weapon for the task" catagory. as it is its just a tad weak and slow :/

Yes, that's the only problem. Till the next KF update we have to find a way on how to implement these guns into the KF perks.
Also we have to make the your Hunting rifle and our Weaponpack compatible. At the moment you can only play with one of them :(

cool, I'll have a look to see what's what in the perk files.

Feel free to add the hunting rifle files to the next weapon pack if that helps? I did include the source files in the whiltelist thread or i could create a mut to add all of them to the trader? up to you guys, whichever you think would be the most convenient?

Can you really add your weapons to work with the perks without changing the perks itself? I think this is a thing you'd have to talk to TWI personally about as it could make whitelisting problems for overpowering perks etc.

Would be nice to see these on perks I must admit.

I don't think that adding your rifle to our weaponpack is a good idea, as it's your wonderful work and people then might forget that you made it (not everyone reads the credits). Bug reporting might also get a bit messed up.

A mutator, which combines these weapons would be cool though. :)

I added this one to my servers over the IJC pack. It was a very hard choice to make, but I feel this one is more in line with the nature of Killing Floor's random survivors with random weapons. Further, as we are playing mainly hard, the hunting rifle has enough power to take down a husk at distance and allows a lever action rifle to be carried, a better combo than HC + Xbow or M14 + LAR on open maps untill wave 5. I have yet to go Scrake hunting, but if that is succesfull, the combo would be good to wave 7.

It would be very nice if it could run along IJC pack and we could get discounts, but I must stress I am extremely impressed by the work put in both the IJC pack and this rifle.

It might be worth noting that the mutator now initializes with

ServerPackages=BDHuntingRifleFinal

Took this n00b some time to figure

Added this weapon to my server today
Everyone who uses it seems to love it
it's a real addition to the SS class

I like the balance with it also
Its not to powerful
Which I like

But I would like more penetration than 2 mobs
I can't seem to get a bullet through more than 2

But I dont want to complain, this weapon is amazing
Everyone has nothing but compliments

Loving the Rifle braindead. Everything about it is pure awesome. I only have one mere problem. After firing, I can't zoom first go. Meaning I have to double click rmb to zoom after firing. It works fine after reloading or switching weapons. It's not a big deal, but it is slightly annoying, just wanna bring that to your attention.

Also, am I the only person who has this happen?
