MF version 2.6.9 is live!

Modern Firearms version 2.6.9 is now live! Head on over to the Downloads page and grab it! Please do be sure to read the Changelog and the Known Issues and Notes drop-down sections! There is important info there.

A cleansave update is highly recommended as always, but not required this time around. You may need to scrap certain weapons that got asset replacements or were totally replaced, but aside from that, there shouldn’t be any major game-breaking issues if you choose to not perform a cleansave update.

Any issues you encounter that are not listed in the Known Issues and Notes drop-down, please report them to us in our Discord Server in either the #mf-beta-testing or #pc-troubleshooting channels.

Also, be sure to disable any patches that touch MF before reporting possible issues to us. If we had a dime for every time someone reported an issue to us that was caused by an outdated patch, we’d be millionaires. Seriously, double-check that it is not an outdated patch first. Please save us the trouble of bogus bug reports. If your issue turns out to be from an outdated patch, please report it to the author of the patch. Not us.

With all of that out the way, enjoy and good hunting!

Version 2.6.8

Additions

9 new muzzle devices:

  • Fortis Classic, 9mm (all Fortis brakes are available with or without the Control Shield)
  • Fortis RED 5.56
  • Fortis RED 7.62
  • Rex Silentium Gunfighter, .45 ACP

1 new weapon:

Rheinmetall Maschinengewehr 3, the modern successor to the infamous MG42. Available in 5.56, .300 Blackout, 6.8 SPC and 7.62x51mm/.308 Winchester. Non-.308 conversions are temporary, until we have proper assets for a CETME Ameli.

2 new animation sets:

Finally, the belt-feds are properly animated! Don’t think I need to say much more than that, other than it’s about Goddamned time, right?

2 new cartridge conversions:

Added in .460 and .960 Rowland ammunition and caliber conversions. .460 is only available for the Vector, but both the Vector and MP5 can be chambered for .960 Rowland. Will be expanded to all other locked-breech handguns and SMGs in either 9mm or .45 ACP at some point next week.

1 new magazine:

Added 50 round magazine for the Vector, in all available calibers.

Changes

  • Edited most barrel meshes to remove previously-integral muzzle devices. G36 barrels still need fixing, but all others should work fine.
  • Replaced the old AN/PVS-4 and the old IFF/NV combo optics with a new ATN X-Sight II.
  • Replaced the M249/FN Minimi in leveled lists with the MG3. Existing M249s will still work, however the Maximi conversion kit will be invisible, as it relied on assets that got deleted as part of the M60 replacement.
  • Total replacement and re-animation of the M60 machine gun. Check it out, it’s fucking gorgeous!
  • Replaced the stand-alone Aimpoint CompM3 with a CompM4s, so all of those will need to be re-zeroed.
