A while back there was a thread that talked about which weapons the owner was/wasn't able to see added components.


Andif it mattered if the components were in the crate when the weapon was crafted. I can't seem to find the thread.


Could someonedirect me to the thread or explain how this works and what weapons are affected.


thanks

Haven't played in about 3 weeks, but here is what I know from then:


- Weapon components (stocks and scopes) will appear on the weapon if the weapon is crafted-by-hand. Then, it is only certain weapons that will show the components. I haven't tried to do this to every weapon in our catalog, but I do know for certain that components are viewable on hand-crafted Carbines for sure. I've made a T21 by hand using a scope and stock, and the components did not appear.


Hope this helps you.

Stocks, scopes, barrels, etc do not appear on most weapons. Sometimes, I notice when you put it up for sale on a vendor, the small window on the lower left shows the object with the additions.


Strange.

Some of my handcrafted show the scopes they were crafetd with. The scope on my Dl44 looks awesome, it's about the same size as the pistol itself. They say you have to uncrate any components you are gonna use and craft the weapon by hand to get them to show

Ahh, yes... forgot to mention that. Components will not show if you assembled the weapon using components "straight from the crate." Instead, remove an component, and then use it in the assembly.


Nice catch.

I guess I shoulda mentioned refering to Weapon Stocks and Scopes (in case it wasn't apparent). I don't want to make a factory run and then find out that the stocks/scopes. dont show on the weapon, If they can be viewed if the weapons are crafted by hand.

Whooohooo! I made a few Laser Carbines using Adv Stock and basic scope last night. They came out really awesome. I got the one i kept for personal use slicedbut only got 18% but it has much better damage than the carb I was using previously (made by another WS) even w/o the pwr up.


Since other players can't see it.. (Are the devs gonna fix this?) I though tha I'd post a pic. Let me know what you think.

Btw I found out that the components don't show when put onto my vendor so i added info in the description stating that it had the optional components. I guess I'll have to craft an extra to put on the wall of my shop.


I'll be making a list ofwhat otherweapons the components are viewable on but if anyone has that info please post it here.

The weapons I have built so far that show a scope and/or stock or barrel are;


Bowcaster - shows scope
DH17 Short Carbine - Shows scope, but not stock
DLT20 Rifle - Shows scope, but not stock
DL44 Metal Pistol - Shows scope and barrel
DKL44 Pistol - Shows scope and barrel
FWG5 Pistol - Shows scope
Laser Carbine - Shows scope and stock
Laser Rifle - Shows scope and stock
Power5 Pistol - Shows scope and barrel
SR Combat Pistol - Shows scope
Striker Pistol - Shows scope and barrel
T21 Rifle - Shows stock


I believe the Featherweight FWG 5 also shows the scope, haven't built one in a while.


As has been mentioned earlier, all components must be removed from their crates before the weapon is crafted.

I have went through all the weapons at one point or another and tried to see which ones show components and which don't. Here's as many as many as I can think of off the top of my head here:


PISTOLS
Scout Blaster - does not display anything
DL-44 and DL-44 Metal - displays scope and barrel
FWG5 - displays scope
Republic Blaster - does not display anything
Modified Republic Blaster - does not display anything
DH17 Pistol - does not display anything
Striker Pistol - displays scope
Tangle Pistol - does not display anything
DX2 - used to display scope, does not appear to any longer
D18 - displays scope and barrel

Power5 - shows scope and barrel

SR Combat - shows scope and barrel


CARBINES
DH17 Carbine - displays scope
DH17 Short Carbine - displays scope
E-11 Carbine - displays scope, barrel and stock
Modified E-11 Carbine - does not display anything

EE3 - displays scope, barrel and stock
Laser Carbine - displays scope, barrel and stock
DXR6 - displays scope and stock
Elite - displays scope, barrel and stock

RIFLES
Laser Rifle - displays scope, barrel and stock
DLT20 - displays scope and barrel
DLT20a - does not display anything
E-11 Rifle - does not display anything
Tusken - does not display anything
SG82 - does not display anything
T21 - displays stock and barrel (barrel graphic is glitched and appears at a 90 degree angle)


HEAVY WEAPONS
Flame Thrower - does not display anything
Heavy Acid Rifle - does not display anything
Light Lightning Cannon - does not display anything



*also, if your factory pack is down to 1, it will treat it like you were adding an uncrated component and will display it if possible


Hope that helps.

thanks for posting your lists everyone.


Found out something interesting last night. If you're grouped with someone they can see the added components on your weapon. However they don't see them when they're not grouped.

Does this mean that if you uncrate the components and then do a factory run they will be viewable as if the weapons were crafted by hand?
