Weaponsmith Archive

/bump ! I was asking many weaponsmiths about this to no avail, what components change the final outlook of the product ?

There are only a few weapons that will show added components, a few i can recall are the DL44, FWG5, laser carb & rifle, and elite carb.
For these components to show up on the weapon, they must be made by hand, and the components must be loose, that is they can not be added from a crate in the combine process. If using crated components, you'll need to pull them from the crate first before your initial combine.
There's nothing you can do post-build to change the weapons appearance.

Hope this helps..

While we are on this subject of how they look, does anyone know why the T21 has the messed up barrel?

Whenever I craft one by hand with a loose barrel in my inventory, the barrel graphic gets attached to the end of the rifle, but instead of being an extension of the gun, it points straight down. To me it looks completely retarded. Is this a known issue?

Components must be removed from the crate, used in a compatible weapon (scout/scatter/launcher pistols and many others will not show anything, some will show only certain components, etc), and hand-made. Factory weapons will never show components, and the components will only be visible to the weapon's owner. Everyone else will see them holding a standard model weapon with no scope/stock/barrel.

T21 barrel bug is a known issue but they apparently don't care at all. That's been in there since release and they won't even acknowledge it. The laser rifle scope used to have a similar bug, but that was fixed a few months ago with no notice.
