**What happens when a smartass plans to update a different mod?** **The smartass gets distracted and accidentally makes a separate weapon to indulge in meme potential.** Oops... The XM4 is should be a steady and powerful platform useful for many builds. The XM4 Secondary will appear in the SMG category as the "XM4 (Secondary)" and is based on the Olympic K23 (Para). A primary version of the XM4 will appear as an assault rifle as "XM4 (Primary)". That weapon is based on the M4A1 (CAR4). Both versions of the XM4 are unlocked at level 30. XM4 Specific Stat Notes: || The XM4 has a good base damage of 71, fires at 722 rounds per minute and has a noticeable but controllable vertical kick upwards and to the right. The accuracy is *just* okay at a base of 60, which means that even if *you* are pinpoint accurate, random spread will maybe make your shots miss. Get close or invest in some accuracy attachments. You get an ammo capacity of 30 rounds in a magazine, 3 magazines total (90 bullets), and a targetted ammo pickup of 3-7 rounds. This should be plenty of ammo, provided you are trying to maintain some semblance of accuracy. You also have the option of the jungle taped magazines and/or the meme windmill magazine if you wish to increase your ammo supply even more. Just keep in mind the taped magazines penalize concealment (and accuracy, for the Windmill Magazine) for the decrease to reload times and increase to base ammo. The concealment is just alright at 18. This can be slightly improved with some attachments, but there are far better weapon for concealment such as many pistols or the SR2 SMG. The XM4 itself does not offer much in the way of unique stat changing attachments, so you'll need to rely on other mods or DLC if you want to have a weapon with perfect stats. (Or you can go in the files and change the stats, but it's kind of boring to have a weapon that's just generically good: high damage, high accuracy, no recoil, and very highly concealable ...) The primary version gains one extra magazine and gains some slight accuracy boosts, to better serve its role as a primary weapon. I found it was a tad overpowered, but idk whether I just had a good day or I kept stealing everyone's ammo drops. || **Known Issues:** **If you equip the Carry Handle Upper Reciever, but then unequip it, you can run around with no optics equipped. This is a problem with how the dummy optic works (aka thing that forbids scopes for the carry handle) and is easily solved by re-equipping iron sights/the scope of your choice. Of course, if you *like* running around with no scope, I won't stop you.*** **The suppressed firing noise for the base XM4 sounds has the bullet casings sound in the background. Will fix it in the next update.** **The Stock Belt attachment will clip through some stocks as it was originally sized for the XM4's built in/extended stock. Will add forbids to stocks with clipping.** **There is some slight clipping here and there with the Commando/Onion Straps on the main body of the weapon.** **If you don't have Perfect View Model, the weapon refuses to move in first person.** **Probable Future Asked Questions:** **Q: Please do (insert weapon here) or (insert weapon mod here)** **A: No. I will make the weapons and attachments I want at my own pace.** **Q: Why is the XM4 not moving around in the first person view?** **A: My mods seem to be cursed by not moving around in the view model. I don't know why it's me, but it is fixed by using Perfect View Model.** **Q: The Commando Strap is badass! Can I have it as a standalone mod?** **A: I originally had no intentions to make the strap its own mod, but considering I had two pre-existing mods with the strap, I made it standalone as per the request of FrenchyAU. It is currently is unlisted [here](https://modworkshop.net/mod/32423), since I did not feel it was worth making public when it's oversized and is prone to clipping issues. The mod is basically going to be maintained by FrenchyAU now.** **Q: Why no dual mag animation?! >:(** ~~A: Deep Dark Fantasies: Only >:3 can do animations~~ **A: I am no animator. If I knew how to animate, I would have done a dual magazine custom animation.** **Q: MA5/37/40 series when?** **A: I'm ... working ... on it. When I'm not getting distracted by other mods.**
