payday 2 The Canterlot Armory : Instrumental Mayhem, Equality and More! // Updated 04.06.16

[Skyrazer 663]

The Canterlot Armory

" We make tiny horse armaments and sit on benches."

 

This thread will mostly be a modding workshop / depot where I'll be posting my Mods (or anyone else's should they want to) mostly Payday 2 ones for the time being. It'll be divided into two sections, Releases and Work in Progress.

Releases are self explanatory while the Work in Progress section will update every few days and feature WIP designs, ideas and concepts. I'm open to ideas from everyone who wants to contribute and I'll post my planned list in the WiP section. Feel free to scrutinize, criticize, antagonize or any other -ize's  you can think of, thread's all about feedback and improvement. If any of you who still stick around Payday want to make a request for a mod feel free to do so and I'll add it to the list. 

Caution : // Image heavy post prepare your internets //

So without further adieu Mods :

Releases

 

Sidearms : 

 Sparkle Glock 25 / Glock 35 for the Chimano Custom :  

 

 

Comes in one variant for the Stock Slide and two variants,  Librarian and Royal, for the Long Slide. One of my first mods and probably due for another pass soon as I've found better ways for dealing with the Payday Engine since I first made it.

Preview :

 

Stock Slide (Glock 22)

Long Slide (Glock 35)

 

 

 

 

Sparkle Glock 18c :

 

 

A complimentary mod to the previous Glock mod since both of them use the same Frame with different slides and lack of magwell. Went with a more Military feel on this one with a Solid Sparkle theme. Firing this in full auto always makes me remember the scene Pinkie uses her as a Gatling cannon in A Canterlot Wedding.

Primaries : 

Lulamoon MSR  for the Rattlesnake Sniper rifle.

 

 

A sniper rifle befitting of the Great and Powerful Trixie, I believe it fits her to a T. Personally one of my favorite mods as it was almost effortless to work on and it just came together in a single sitting.

Preview : 

 

Wooden body 

Tactical Aluminum body 

 

 

 

Twilight Blazer R93 / Tactical for the R93 Sniper Rifle :

 

 

The last Twilight themed weapon which completes my usual set of one secondary and one Primary per Pony. Which I sort of already broke by having Twilight have two Pistols but, they're both Glocks so why not. Features variants for both the Wooden Body and the Stock Polymer body.

Preview 

 

Wooden Body :

Stock Polymer body 

 

 

 

Magnifique FAMAS for the Clarion Rifle : 

 

 

 

A primary weapon I believe suits Rarity perfectly, it's elegant, compact and packs a punch. First of the Rarity themed weapons with the Wather PPK being next on the list.

Preview : 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Melee weapons : 

 

The Royal Judgement (Twicane) for the Ding Dong Breaching Hammer

 

 

 

What's better in life than defeating your enemies? Defeating them with a giant golden cane of Twilight Sparkle, that's what! Now you two can enjoy the delight of bashing your enemies skulls in with a cane made out of solid gold! It's 100% Discord approved!

 

The Lyre's Nocturne : 

Who doesn't like Lyres? Oh, someone doesn't? Well that's why this weapon exists: to teach the ignorant masses about the beauty of Music. It replaces the Psycho Knife Halloween Community melee.

 

The Cellist's Overture: 

I blame Light Landstrider for this. It replaces the Classic Baton from the Aleso Heist DLC.

 

The Spear of Equality : 

Spreading Equality, one Stick at a time. Replacer for the Spear or Freedom melee weapon from the Gage Historical Pack.

Masks :

The Big Crown Thingy (Twilight's Element of Magic) for Vlad's Tiara

 

 

First thing I though when I saw that Tiara : "I have to turn this into Twilight's crown."

 And so it was. May contain minor clipping with regards to Bonnie and Wolf, haven't tested it on Jiro, Sokol, Jacket or Dragan since I don't have those characters. It should hopefully work though. If anyone spots any weird clipping on those be sure to tell me about it. I may find a way to fix it. I wouldn't recommend trying to Customize it as only Materials seem to change on it and patterns get lots somewhere, no idea how to fix it at the moment, but the again why would you even want to customize it?

Preview : 

 

 

Trixie's Hat : 

 

Requests : 

IF-12 Ironpony / AA-12 "Security" for the Stakeout 12G (Fallout Equestria : Project Horizons ) 

 

 

Special AA-12 made for Sidewinder,a good friend of mine, themed after Blackjack from Project Horizons.

Preview :

 

 

 

 

Download links for all of these can be found HERE !

Links seem to have broken for some reason, will edit this when they start working.

 

Work in Progress

 

Section will be constantly updated so keep your eyes on it. 

 

 

 

 

Diamond Walter PPK for the Gruber Pistol.

Something for good old Rarity, matching her with a very small, easily concealable pistol, the Walther PPK. It's a classic really. I think it fits her perfectly as its small, powerful and stylish. Walther's still on its first pass as I've no idea what to do with it at the moment.

 

 

Shimmer G3 for the Gewehr-3 rifle 

Rifles still need a bunch of work, unsatisfied on the most part and the wooden segments need to be moved to the new base.

 

 

 

Celestia Scar-H, still chugging along... still don't have a name for it but Sunshine seems like a good one but I'm open for suggestions.

 

 

 

Luna AR-15 and Nightwatch M1911. Two American classics for the one and only Princess of the Night. AR-15's still have no final name, Nightwatch is a good one for the 1911's. Currently doing final passes and polish on the 1911 and most of the AR-15 parts are done. Need to do detail work on the AR-15's and move them to polish

 

Octavia M-1928 Thompson Sub-machine Gun

Pretty basic so far, needs work on the barrels, polymer parts and a proper name, the working names are "Melody" or "Melody's Cello"

 

Rainboom Sig-552/553

 

So here's the first Rainbow Dash weapon in the works, WIP's been around for a while, but most of the parts are done. Need to work on details and the base foregrip, stock and grip.

 

Vinyl's Headphones 

I will note that these are really weird and clip in all kinds of places, might be able to find a sweet spot and minimize clipping. Otherwise I may not release them at all.

We'll see how it goes.

I can say - you have done a good job with Twilicane

[SonataDusk 7]

Sorry, but there is just no point in trying to play that game anymore, not after today.

[RadioactiveNuke 9]

Do you only do weapon mods or would you be willing to do world props as well?

[Skyrazer 663]

Sure, anything works. I've only done weapons so far but anything's up for consideration.

[RadioactiveNuke 9]

I was wondering if you could make the Mystery Machine to replace the Overkill van. There's one on LastBullet but it's extremely outdated.

[Skyrazer 663]

Isn't working properly I assume? Well, I converted it to the new mod mod_override format to replace the Overkill van. Should be working now 

You can grab it Here

[RadioactiveNuke 9]

Thank you so much. I've been trying to get it to work but I have no idea how Payday files work. The only issue is the text on the right side of the car is backwards, but other than that it's perfect.

The mirrored text is more or less out of anyone beside Overkill's ability to fix, it's just how the model for the Van works. Texture only has one side of the van while the other one is a mirrored image of that side, good way to cut corners in file size and it doesn't matter for Ovk since the vanilla ones both have emblems instead of text. Glad you like it though.

Alright, just wanted to know why that was. Thanks again.

[Cyber Commander 72]

Don't know much on modding Payday 2 but are the models themselves accessible because if they can be loaded in Maya I could fix up the UV's so that they aren't reflected. It isn't to hard of a fix unless Overkill has their UV laid out shitty. 

[Skyrazer 663]

Sure, I can decompile what I believe is the van model, though just by looking at this thing in Blender... It's one heck of a mess. Already did a bit of UV work while getting the Element of Magic tiara to work and I'm not too thrilled at how Ovk make their UVs, lots of overlapping parts, and models are usually either one solid chunk or tons of smaller chunks.

Edit : Here's the Wavefront object since that's what it usually decompiles to

// MODDING IN PROGRESS //       STATUS :  WIP       // MODDING IN PROGRESS //     STATUS :

Added G3 WIP from last night... It's so WIP it's still in Blender.  G3A1 (Wooden) parts remain mostly untouched.

FAMAS is under heavy scrutiny and polishing but more or less final.

Looking ideas for Spike, Fluttershy, Trixie and Lyra, or pretty much anything with a '?' in the list.

[RadioactiveNuke 9]

For Fluttershy I'd do something with the First Aid Kid. For Trixie, maybe redo a mask to be her hat? For Lyra you could change a melee so you'd be beating people to death with a miniature harp. It's always fun to beat people with a funny melee weapon.

[Cyber Commander 72]

Spike you could add a special Molotov and maybe armor bag with scale armor or something

 Ministry of Peace (FO:E) style First Aid Kit sounds cool. Trixie hat and a Lyre Melee are great. Just need to find an actual Lyre model and a weapon to replace.

Spike you could add a special Molotov and maybe armor bag with scale armor or something

Already got plans for the Molotovs, armor bag and scale armor though.... You mean something like this ?  

Threw it together in a bit, need to coat the rest and probably add some oversized spikes / scales on the shoulder pads and back. If it compiles properly and doesn't break PD2's polly limit I'd love to get this set up. Probably going to need three versions of it, one for the Males, one for Bonnie and one for Clover, image is of Clovers armor since I had her model already decompiled. 

[RadioactiveNuke 9]

For the melee is recommend replacing it with one of the melees that's actually useful.

I have honestly no idea what melees people use these days, I mainly pack the Breaching hammer (Armor builds), Ikanawa SAIs (LWBV or Dodge) and Empty palm kata (Stealth). Other than that no ideas what people actually use, aside from that damn Katana...

I use the buzzer, personally.

[Skyrazer 663]

L82 (Queens Wrath) is gonna be Lyra themed so might as well have the Lyre replace Clover's stick melee. As for the buzzer, maybe a Unicorn horn, could replace the poisoned kunai with it as well. Hehehe.. rainbow colored puke from poisoned enemies..

[Skyrazer 663]

// MODDING IN PROGRESS //       STATUS :  RELEASE      // MODDING IN PROGRESS //     STATUS :

 

And so the Magnifique Famas is done and released. You can grab it HERE . 

Been a very slow month honestly, a lot of other stuff to deal with but I squeezed some time in and in between demotivation and uni work got finished the Famas and started work on the Celestia themed SCAR-H, there's a screenshot of it in the WIP section, however it's very basic.

[Skyrazer 663]

// MODDING IN PROGRESS //       STATUS :  WIP       // MODDING IN PROGRESS //     STATUS :

 

Added the first pass on the Celestia Scar-H, still figuring out the design around it. And a new melee wep is almost done, needs a bit of normal map work, but the Lyre even features a custom charge sound.

[Skyrazer 663]

// MODDING IN PROGRESS //       STATUS :  WIP       // MODDING IN PROGRESS //     STATUS :

 

Ported Trixie's hat (And the Lyre) as per @RadioactiveNuke 's suggestion and am now accepting ideas and suggestions for new masks / melee weapons I can replace. Currently only two ideas with either the Staff of Sameness or Octavia's Chelo bow replacing the Katana and a rework of the SAI knife from the Ninja pack to have a Unicorn horn as a.. well blade. It's only meant for stabbing anyway.... 

[RadioactiveNuke 9]

Could do something like a Spike flamethrower that shoots green fire. Also it'd be cool if there was an animation of killed enemies vaporizing in the fire like a scroll would.
