M16A4-Remake 1.0.0

Please do not ask when mod authors will update their mods to 3.9.X
Bothering mod authors will lead to warnings and repeat offenses will lead to eventual bans.

This mod adds M16A4 and its related parts to the game. Less than it was in the latest original version, but hopefully better looking.

This mod is a remake of my old mod that I made back during Aki beta days and that was maintained up until Aki 2.0.0. I was always bothered by how some parts looked in game, but didn't have time to focus on them. So, I present to you, the remade M16A4.


True to its real life counterpart, M16A4 is a 3-round burst assault rifle that can accept any part that is available to the M4A1. Since it is not particularly competitive in a world of fully automatic weapons, base M16A4 is available from account lvl 1 through Peacekeeper LL1 for cash rather than barter items.

Features

  • M16A4 lower receiver with updated custom textures by yours truly. Using it increases your mastery with other M4-type weapons as well.
  • 2 handguard options most closely associated with real life M16A4: A2 "round" handguard and KAC M5 RAS.
  • 1 stock that is very clearly missing from the base game: an M16A2 fixed stock that is mounted on the underused A2 buffer tube.
  • 2 barrel options that can be used only with this mod's handguards: 18 inch and 20 inch.
  • 3 pre-built presets:
    • Default - fitted with a round handguard, it serves as a counterpart to base M4A1 build. Available from Peacekeeper LL1 for $525.
    • MWS - fitted with KAC M5 RAS and some accessories. Available from Peacekeeper LL2 for $1,034.
    • SAM-R - fitted with suppressor and a sniper scope, it was designed to fit right in with Mechanic's overcomplicated tacticool roughly-based-on-real-life-builds shit. Available from Mechanic LL3 for 1 bitcoin.

Credits:

KAC M5 RAS and A2 stock models and textures are from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022) (Infinity Ward)

A2 round handguard model and textures are from Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War (Treyarch)

Special thanks to TEOA who updated my AWM to 3.0.0 because of their code I finally understood how to adapt to the new modding environment.

  • "Since it is not particularly competitive in a world of fully automatic weapons"


    Dead giveaway you've never fired fully automatic rifles before. 3 round burst on the M16 is actually very intuitive in real life, although semi-automatic is much more common

  • So... No chance of this mod returning?

  • Hello author, I am a player from China and I like your MOD very much. Can I adapt it to 3.5.x and add Chinese translation to it?

    Of course, the author is still your name, can I get the adaptation authorization (from Google Translate)

  • I'll send you 20 USD if you port this over to 3.5.5. 35 USD if you port the retro stuff too. (Please it was my favorite gun.)

    • I'm sorry I can't offer more money (or non USD currency) I just really want this mod to come back and people who make good things deserve financial compensation for the great things that they do.

  • I miss this mod. ='(

  • Thinking about upgrading this to 3.5?

  • Thanks for your hard work! Is there any way I can tweak the 3-round burst recoil?

  • It looks awesome and works perfect although the 3 round burst recoil is insane compared to the real thing. But that's just Tarkov being Tarkov.

  • RAH

  • I saw that the other mod has the M16A1 parts on the retro preset, is there any plan to port those parts over? You're the only mod I've seen so far to have the m16a1.

    • I will probably port them over later

      Heart 1

  • actual GOAT, very happy to see this come back!

  • Having issues with the mod loading textures. Anyone else have this issue?

  • FYI - Your mod won't work with JoshJ5hawk's Supper Ammo mod. Specifically, the lower receiver part. I was able to use your mod with the lower swapped for an M4A1 lower, meaning it's not the barrels or whatever, so I don't know what's going on there.

    JoshJ5Hawk's Super Ammo

    • I wasn't intending for M16 to work with custom ammunition so it is not included in lower's config by default. I am not sure about how superammo injects its ammo, so I can't tell from that side.

    • OK. Is there a way to change that?

      I'm asking because there are several mods that directly affect ammo that I want to use at the same time as yours.

      Also .... I think the 3rd preset should have a different scope, as the one used doesn't function properly. It's one of the few optics that BSG has yet to fix.

    • One option - open weapon_m16a4...json in db/templates/items/, find "Chambers" or "patron_in_weapon" and add what you need to "Filter".


      As for the scope - I honestly slapped just because of its name and never intended the build to be functional lol.

    • Awesome. Thanks.

    • I tried adding what I thought was the right item ID, but it didn't work. Did I miss something?

  • I just want to say a thank you for all of you have done <3

  • Thank God you're back.

    Unfortunately, I have been using version 3.3.0 recently, or it may be time to try version 3.4.0

    • Interestingly, although my aki version is 3.2.1, this mod still works fine. You just need to change "akiVersion" to the aki version you use in package.json

  • Miralyn returns, perhaps its time for me to get back into Tarkov again.

  • Kind of new to all of this modding. How do I install this

    • Check out the FAQ section at the top of the website's page.

    • I have SPT installed. I'm just trying to figure out how to install this mod

    • Download mod.....extract the FOLDER inside zip file, NOT the zip file itself, to user/mods folder

  • how to remove it ?

    • Remove what? The mod?

      If that's what you're asking.....why?

  • Everyone has been waiting for this moment.

    • At least I have, as this gives me the opportunity to recreate my M16A4 I had in Baghdad. :)

  • WOO HOO!!!

    Thanks for bringing this back, as I loved using it for IRL DMR builds I either saw or used as an infantryman!!!

  • Wonderful! Thank you so much for bringing this back.
