Port of the PKM and PKP from the new Tarkov wipe.

Special thanks to the SPT devs for dumping the relevant json files required for these mods to work, and for everything else! <3


I'm happy to say that I was wrong about not being able to port the LMGs, turns out they *mostly* work, at least enough that I consider it worth putting this out.


PLEASE NOTE - There is a strong chance of small errors or differences from live in this mod due to the new belt-fed mechanics. Please read the Known Issues section below or check the comments for any errors and let me know if you spot something that isn't already listed!


Installation:


Download the .zip file, extract all, and add the folder MC-LMG to your user/mods/ folder in SPT. Make sure it is just the folder with all of the contents, not a folder with another MC-LMG folder inside of it, else the mod will probably throw an error!


The directory should look like this:


/user/mods/MC-LMG/


and not this:


/user/mods/MC-LMG_X.X.X/MC-LMG/


To try and use with older versions that had the old locale type, make sure to open "config.json" with Notepad, change oldLocales from "false" to "true" (without quotes), save and close the file


*Important Note* - All trades should be accurate to live, except I changed both LMGs to be available on the flea market as there are no trades for them in live Tarkov.



Known Issues/Differences from Live:

  • The belt feeding animation does not play properly - nothing I can do about this at this time unfortunately.
  • The LMGs are on the flea market, which they are not on Live Tarkov.
  • The hand placement on the default PKP blocks the iron sights. I do not know why.
  • The black default PK pistol grip has no name in locales other than english, this is straight from BSG. I will not translate to each language myself especially for such a small item.


Uninstalling:


If for whatever reason you need to remove this mod, make sure you delete any new items that this mod adds from your inventory before you delete the mod folder!
