A recreation, rebalance and rework of G.A.M.M.A.'s NPC and 'New Game' loadouts to decrease weapon bloat, add more NPC rank granularity and provide and promote more interesting loadout c hoices.
This affects all of the NPC loadouts and mostly replaces weapons in GAMMA with others, an example being that it replaces wpn_p90_gs (Integrated Red-Dot Optic P90) with wpn_p90gamma (Green Picatinny Rail P90).
This has the intention of decreasing the actual amount of different guns there are in GAMMA while not decreasing notably different options to the player, as most of my replacements intend to replace the weapons with either a variant of itself, like in the case of the P90, or something that is functionally identical to it, like a lot of the 5.56 and 5.45 weapons.
This also removes weapons I view as overpowered currently like the AMB-17 and RD-939 to promote different options like the VSS and AS-Val for lategame.
Currently, this mod is incompatible with anything that touches loadouts in the form of that either this mod will take priority or whatever other mods you have modifying loadouts will take priority. I suggest loading mine last, as compat patches for BAS 2022, FWP and other gun mods will come in the future, though they're currently incomplete.
Add it to the bottom of your load order, ideally before any other weapon mods or new game loadout modifiers, in MO2. To add it either use Ctrl + M or the add archive button in the top left.
If you dislike something or the mod doesn't work on your end, I suggest either simply not using it or bringing it up in its respective thread in the Stalker GAMMA discord. Chances are if it's relating to a weapon I removed I will not change my stance on removing it, though I am happy to hear feedback.
