Over the course of the past... month? It's grown into something far beyond that. What was once a simple mod that adds descriptions to all weapons, both custom and base-game, has since grown into a "complete" """"revamp"""" of inventory text.
Wow.
What this mod does is it makes every single weapon in the game, including custom weapons, become able to display a description in the buy menu, and then adds a unique description for almost every single one (most akimbo weapons are just given empty strings for descriptions because nobody cares). These range from descriptions to helpful tips to pertinent references to mere jokes, and serve to add a little more character to PAYDAY 2's vast and frankly cold blackmarket.
On top of this, you also have renaming options. These are disabled by default, but can be turned on in the mod options menu, and serve to rename weapons to match a desired theme you choose - either in-universe names for neglected base game weapons and most custom weapons, or realistic names for most base game weapons and a couple of custom weapons.
PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TELL ME IF I PORTRAYED ANY OF THESE GUNS WRONG AND IF YOU HAVE ANY CREATIVE SUGGESTIONS FOR IN-UNIVERSE NAMES TELL ME THIS TASK IS TOO DAUNTING FOR ONE PERSON TO DO ALONE.
Requires BeardLib.
Goes in mod_overrides.
Warnings:
Spoiler!(Probably?) incompatible with "Allow Weapon Descriptions" by LunaticLunarian - this mod contains its own version. If you have another weapon rename mod, such as YAWN, in-universe names for custom weapons, or realistic names for custom weapons, you should probably leave the renaming options off. If you have another mod that comes bundled with some weapon localization tweaks, such as IREnFIST, you should also probably leave the renaming options off.
