I've made a bunch of different guns and put scopes on all of them but i've noticed that only certain scopes appear on certain guns.........


What's up with that i've had people back out of sales because they didn't believe i put a scope on the gun..........Is this a graphics bug or what?????


Based on the final assemblyI know that the scopestats were added to the gun so technically they are there but the graphics just don't show up in the final product.......


I've read that someone said that scopes don't show up in factory made guns but they dont always show up on hand made guns either....... and only certain scope types will show on certain guns......... What the point of having a half dozen different looking scopes to pick from if they don't appear on the gun anyways ???????


And does anyone have a list of what scope typeswill show up on what guns when you go to use them ???

Same goes for stocks and barrels... I think they should make this more visable...


Then we could makethe weapons more personal, and maybenot as mundane asthey arenow...

This is something that I have not fully experimented with, but the experience I do have is this: (please correct me if I am wrong)


- Factory made weapons will never show the stock or scope, regardless if the stocks/scopes are in crates in the ingredient hopper of individually placed, one-by-one, into the ingredient hopper.


- Some weapons, when hand-made, will show any stock and/or scope. Carbines in particular, I've had 100% success getting the stocks/scopes to appear on the weapon when they are hand-built AND the stocks/scopes are NOT pulled from the crates. IE: Remove a stock/scope from its crate, then combine it in the build screen, do not double-click a crate to add the component as it will not appear.


- Exceptions to the visual stock/scope (as applicable): Republic Blaster and T21. I have not played with any other pistols/rifles.


I hope this helps you.

what i noticed also is,the scopes and stocks that do apear,are only visible to the person weilding the item.you cant look at somone holding a T21 and see if it has a stock without yourself holding it.same with the DL44 its scope only apears to the person holding it or in the trade window(im pretty sure in tradewindow they show).scout blasters never show scopes.
