Adds an AK-12 and an AK-15 so the RPK-16 doesn't have to be so lonely.

I always felt a little bit bad for the RPK-16. Only machine gun in the game is already a kick in the proverbial balls enough, but only representative of the modern Kalashnikov lineup? One and done? That's it? That fucking sucks.

So I gave the RPK-16 a few friends to keep it company.

This mod adds an AK-12 assault rifle and an AK-15 battle rifle to the game. Both rifles and their parts can be purchased off Prapor LL2, and stripped forms of the rifles as well as carbine barrels for both rifles can be purchased off Prapor LL3.

The AK-12 functions similarly to the RPK-16, occupying less overall space and weight and having a higher ergo score in exchange for lower maximum accuracy and bullet velocity. It might not be as good a choice as the RPK-16 when it comes to firing at a distance, but if you're using an automatic firearm to engage targets at about 200m you're doing it wrong, so...

Meanwhile the AK-15 just melts enemies the same way the AK-103 does, but with worse customization potential in exchange for better accuracy. If anything, the AK-15 probably breaks the balance of the kalashnikovs in this game harder than the AK-12 does. At least it's fucken fun to use, though.

Known Issue:

• I couldn't get 7.62x39mm firing noises for the AK-15 to work without getting weird silent reloads and magazine drills. I think something got goofed up by the changes made to how weapons are constructed in 12.11, so once I figure out what happened I should be able to fix this.

Well, there's always SOMEthing that's bound to go wrong on release day... Whoops.

• Added missing support for JMAC muzzle device to AK-12.
• Substantially nerfed AK-15 recoil.
  • It's still got lower recoil than the AK-103 and can still be made a laser beam with proper modding, but is no longer a laser beam out of the box.
    • This was happening because my dumb ass copy-pasted the wrong numbers to the wrong document. Nice going, me.
• Substantially buffed unique muzzle devices.
  • Muzzle devices should now be able

• Substantially buffed unique muzzle devices.
  • Muzzle devices should now be able to compete with the JMAC, offering a bit less recoil reduction but greater velocity and accuracy with lower ergo penalty.
    • Yes, I'm aware that this doesn't make them better than the JMAC and that the REAL problem here is the JMAC being overpowered.

A small few changes for some small mistakes. Shouldn't have taken this long, but it did. Whoops...

• Thread space on barrels is now FAR less visible when using the default muzzle devices.
  • Turns out I fucked up the bundle offsets and made muzzles mount way too far forward. Muzzles now mount to correct positions.
• AK-15 now uses AK-74 mastery. Yes, it feels wrong, but apparently the AK-103 uses AK-74 mastery so doing this is right. Somehow.

The "Smug Russian Bottom" Update.

Small update for AKI 2.0.0. Weapon now supports the new 12.11 malfunction and jam system, and can mount the new stuff added alongside the scope rework. Hooray!

Added new textures courtesy of Mira! These are versions slightly similar to the ones in her standalone retexture, except they're older versions where the handguard was slightly different and the barrel white was still, well, white.

Overall, this should make the gun look a lot more metal-y and make the polymer parts fit better with each other - or, as Mira put it, this should make the gun look a bit less buttery. Which is quite welcome. :p

I don't have time to update the preview images right now,…

I don't have time to update the preview images right now, so if you want to take a peek at the new look sported by the AK-12 and AK-15, I recommend you check out Mira's standalone retexture mod, which is linked above.

AK15 makes no sounds of any kind (reloading, inspect, shooting, etc. are all muted) and gets a "hands are busy" bug after adding a weapon mod (did it with a light and a forward grip) in a raid.

AK12 seemed to work just fine. I didn't test everything, but it made sounds and didn't get a "hands busy" bug after adding/removing a weapon mod in a raid.

I did both tests with a brand new and unmodded version of both. They didn't even have any ammo.

Are you fucking serious.

I'm not in a place where I can test this myself, so I'm assuming based off your post that this is something you can reproduce, which is infuriating - I was getting the soundless AK-15 bug earlier and assumed it was a result of me trying to change the firing noises, which clearly seems to be wrong (lmao). I think something is fucked up with its weapon container/root, but I have no idea what it is.

In case it's a conflict, though, could you tell me what other mods (if any) you have running, and what you mean by "hands are busy" bug? Do you mean the bug you get sometimes when searching a container that leaves you unable to interact with anything in the world or open context menus with right click, or the bug that you used to get where your viewmodel freezes and leaves you unable to do literally anything? Thanks.

Super dirty internal plumbing fix for the AK-15. It should work properly now.

Jesus, that was embarrassing.

Quote from MrBlu1911

I have a bunch of mods, so there could be a conflict. For example. The M16A4 mod is incompatible with the "AllTradersSellCheapIttems"; true setting in Erish's AIO mod. As a result, I don't run the M16A4 mod, even though it gives me a bit of nostalgia regarding my time as an infantryman....but I digress.

Anyways. It's a "you can't interact with anything" busy hands. If you want, I can try to reproduce it and send you a video of it so you can see what I'm talking about.

Here is a screen cap of all the mods I'm currently using.

No need, I was able to reproduce on my own and patch it, though the way in which I had to patch it leaves me unable to give the AK-15 its own firing noises... which is less than desirable. Ouch. Try it again now, it should be good.

As for the M16A4 mod... that's really strange. No idea what the issue could possibly be since I don't use AIO, but I'll let Mira know to investigate it whenever she has a chance. Thank you for the heads-up on all of this, by the way.
