4.14.0 - 2026-10-WIP

Added

Simple localization helper with just name and number

4.13.0 - 2026-10-18

Added

Trench Gun barrel for Huntsman

Fixed

Excessive debug in console log

4.12.0 - 2026-10-14

Added

Slim Blades
- Has the new DClaw blade
Support for Huntsman's Shotgun
Flashlight
- Tactical flashlight finally remade
- MP5 lights also made but not yet repositioned. I need to think about how to do this properly

Fixed

Combat Shotgun sights being placed into the wrong slot
Made bayonet alignment consistent
Missing mod title
Redid Slim Blades so it not as subjected to The Lottery
- Is this finally the end of the flipped blades
- pray for a miracle

Developer

Refactored transfer from local table of attachments to global list on first setup because I was getting bored of copy pasting it
- mod.local_table_of_attachments_add_one handles adding one attachment to the list or to a key
- mod.transfer_local_table_of_attachments_to_global handles transferring the one layer to a global
Removed version logging
- DMF does this natively now
- The only purpose was to make sure users had this mod updated, and if the DMF logging is not in the log, I think it's safe to assume they just need to update everything
- Makes it less tedious to maintain multiple version numbers

4.11.0 - 2026-09-07

May require reequiping some Laspistol iron sights

Added

Laspistol Night Iron Sights
The other laspistol iron sight variants

Changed

Split Iron Sights into selection groups

Developer

Refactored laspistol irons to create all variants
Renamed laspstol_with_rail_jank to laspistol_jank_with_rail arbitrarily. kiss your sister

4.10,0 - 2026-09-07

Added

Invisible Rifle Rails
- For laspistol
Laspistol Irons
- For laspistol
- With and without rails
- With and without alignment for aiming

Fixed

Missing attachment localizations because mod.localize_attachment_triple_threat put the number in the wrong spot
Vulnerability when inserting custom fixes per weapon that would allow it to pass nil and crash

Developer

Renamed mod.create_requirements_string_from_names_table to mod.create_requirements_string_from_values_of_names_table
Created mod.shallow_create_all_requirements_string_in_table to automatically run the above on one level of a table
- This is to avoid the monstrosity that is the contemporary barrel localization
- So yeah i changed it to that in owo_modern_barrel.lua
More detailed error messages for adding localization suffix tables
Refactored inserting custom fixes per weapon to avoid checking more fixes after it's already replaced a fix
Renamed kitbashs to kitbashes for internal use, then copies the values over before sending it to the main mod

4.9.0 - 2026-09-03

Added

Contemporary barrels
- Now on shredder autopistol and lasguns
- because adding more bugs is a good idea!

Fixed

Kalashnikov Barrels not lining up
- Braced Autogun's origin is lower, so I had to move the others down
- I forgot to set the exception
- Which is pretty embarassing since I noticed that when I first made these lol

Developer

Moved hardcoded fix requirements to its own file
- This is so it can load before attachemnts are created
- I should've done this a while ago

4.8.1 - 2026-08-31

Fixed

Other plugins' sights were getting unaligned
- The holographic sight was not properly logging its name
- This meant the fixes were trying to match nil, so it was always valid for any sight
- This then subjected every other sight to... The EWC Fix Lottery
Fixed doubled sights from other plugins on the Galvanic Rifle
- This was because I defined an attachment slot for sight based on the receiver instead of the rail
- EWC is a goon so it just takes my new slot and gives it to everyone, so there's two sight
Made previews for Sight Reticles visible
- Reticle 1 and 3 are general visible ((+) and [+])
- What about reticle 2?
- I have no clue
- That father fucker just up and disappeared
- I spent the entire time aligning the other 2 and slowly rotating reticle 2 to try and find it
- But it's just GONE?? like a fart in the wind
- I'll get my fucking child support, reticle 2

4.8.0 - 2026-08-20

Added

Suppressors
- PBS-1 now has a variant with the base muzzle visible
Flashlights
- There is now a custom color that grabs from the mod options
- Requires the latest update for DMF
Updated localization helper to support localization instead of only English
- ...yeah
- that's pretty embarassing
- Though it's not like I expect anyone to translate this monster lol

Changed

[REDACTED] Suppressors no longer have a damage type if it's not a muzzle
- Now the barrel shrouds won't mess with you
- haha
- just kidding
- that's for the weekend
Suppressors are actually categorized by regular vs slim
Suppressors no longer have the base mesh visible

Fixed

I broke all the suppressors again last time lol
- All muzzle suppressors were taking the barrel shroud position
- Now they're back to how they were
- Which is to say
- Shit!
- Not really. The broken part wasn't actually too noticable
Invisible flashlight was trying to be a stock for some reason, so now it's actually invisible

Developer

Refactored some global attachment names to be called by the attachment file itself instead of shared fixes. In the future this makes it easier to keep everything together instead of jumping between the file and the shared file, so adopting the same thing over time makes it more consistent.

4.7.0 - 2026-08-16

Added

Contemporary Barrels
- For the autoguns
- Short AK Barrels (Rocks Glass) and Shorter AK Barrels (Shots Glass)
  - Shorter version of the Braced Autogun barrels
  - The names are in reference to serving glasses used for vodka (idk I don't drink)
AK Style Helbore Bayonets
- For basically all ranged lol
- Helbore bayonets (the slashy kind) but flipped upside down
- Isn't set up for all of them, but that's something for future me
Veteran Guardsman Laspistol Wargear
- Laspistols
- Underbarrel plasma pistols and bolt pistols
- Yes, underbarrel pistols for your pistol lol
- There was a misprint in one of the 10th edition rulebooks

Changed

Perhaps improved barrel shroud positioning logic
Restructured Mod Options to have more subcategories

Fixed

Crash when hovering chainsword body 10-12
- create_attachments.lua did not have safety checks when prepending 0
- Thus creating nonsensical numbers when fed two digit values
Missing mod options for randomization: chainsword blades
Equipping AK Irons would move suppressors forwards
- Both were made as simple kitbashes
- Making the AK base apply as the muzzle base, so the fix hit both
- Turned AK Irons into a full kitbash

Developer

Refactored tactical stock localization so it appears in the localization file
Updated localization standard so I can copy it for each attachment group, instead of fiddling with
Adopted a test version of the info.json file

4.6.0 - 2026-08-08

Added

Chainsword Blades
- Chainsword blades onto the Heavy Eviscerator
- Eviscerator blades onto the Assault Chainsword
- Created new Chainsword damage types for each of them
Chainsword chains
- For use with the above

Changed

Refactored damage types
- It's done only on all mods being loaded, so load order doesn't matter with EWC
  - still recommended to keep OwO after base additions bc of the soft requirement
  - But if I ever get rid of that, it'll be fine in whatever order
  - Robustness yesss
- Clarified families_and_damage_types was just for slim blades, since I needed one for chainsword blades separately
- Created function for making damage types from a given family/damage_type table
Refactored file structure. Now whenever I add a new attachment/fix, all edits are done in one file instead of being spread out
Refactored copying to siblings for improved performance
Refactored common fixes and attachments
- Before I just copy pasted them among the weapon files
- Now there are tables in the shared fix requirements so it's easier to make sweeping changes

Fixed

~~my life haha~~
AML will sort it after base additions

4.5.0 - 2026-07-23

Added

Slim Blades
- Mechanicus Power Sword is added to list of available blades (and whoever named them is a psychopath)
- Mechanicus Power Sword can use slim blades. They'll look weird due to the lack of guard on the grip
Added parts to the new weapons
- "dual_autopistols_p1_m1", "dual_stubpistols_p1_m1", "needlepistol_p1_m1", "arc_rifle_p1_m1", "galvanic_rifle_p1_m1", "phosphor_pistol_p1_m1"
- All the flashlights (tactical ones are still broken)
- Holographic Sights
- Suppressors

Changed

Refactored list of slim blade damage types so it's one table i need to edit

Fixed

Helbore Lasguns with suppressors have bayonets aligned now
- Before, they were clipping inside the muzzle
- Now, they should be closer to the bottom lug of the barrel
Vigilant Autogun and Braced alignments (copied values from Infantry Autogun)
Infantry Lasgun sight alignments
- the reticles themselves are jank and evil
- half the time they align
- all of the time, they don't hide the housing properly
- Use the empty sight reticle for now
Recon Lasgun holosight alignments
- With partial compatibility with Syn's receivers
- Sometimes the alignments don't register and it just stays floating
- I'm guessing this is the same cause as the slim blade flip issue. This issue will be investigated
Helbore Lasgun holosight alignments
- The sight itself works, but the reticles won't cooperate for me, for whatever reason
- Use the empty reticle
Aligned suppressor tip
- Wrapped and Heavy Metal 2
- There's supposed to be a tip with a noticable barrel edge, but it was too deep inside so it was just a flat, closed barrel

2026-05-05

v4.4.0

Reverted the suppressor changes, to support the new EWC version

Refactor

Made more player-facing messages localization strings, so they can be easily translated if needed

2026-04-27

v4.4.0-beta

Added error message about using the MT Plugin
Added options to disable randomization for all groups of parts

Added Parts/Support

Barrel Shrouds (barrel_foreskin) slot
- Reusing Suppressors to keep the old bug
- It only works on Autoguns and "works" is being generous
Added slim variant of Wrapped Suppressor
~~Aligned Suppressors on Combat Shotguns for Syn's barrels~~
~~Aligned Holographic Sights for Syn's receiver extensions~~
- ~~sight offset has similar issues with flipped blades, in that they're inconsistent and make me want to contribute to the statistic~~

Fixes

Robust handling for mod.create_requirements_string_from_names_table mainly around passing various types
Realigned suppressors for Combat Shotguns
Decided FUCK IT for the flipped blades issue
- I gave up
- But before I did, I tried another method
- Fixes are now written manually instead of dynamically
- I believe there was an issue with files being run in parallel, so the variables were not fully written before they were used by each weapon files
- Since after restarts, there could be no blades flipped, some blades flipped (with no consistency in which ones), or all blades flipped
- never fUCING MIND AAAAAAAAA IM GOING TO EAT SOMEONE
Localized groups for holographic sights
~~Realigned EOTech HWS's to hide the chainsword triggers more~~
Slim Blade vfx spawner crashes
- Removed unused slot indicators
- Disabled all vfx spawner exclusions (disable_vfx_spawner_exclusion is now true when creating any blade)

Refactor

Reorganized OwO mode shitposting to be more easily read
Replaced ipairs with index based array access, per Fatshark's Lua optimization guide
Set error messages to use localization strings, for easier translation

2025-12-23

v4.3.1

Fixed logging to happen only with debug mod, so I don't keep polluting people's logs
Fixed attachments:
- Slim blades being flipped for:
  - Arbites Shock Maul
  - Shock Maul and Suppression Shield
Refactored requirements to be in its own file
- So I don't have a untalge the mess of "ok who already edited the global"
- And I don't have to copy the functions multiple times
  - especially the slim blade ones
  - just in case one comes first

2025-11-30

v4.3.0

Added

Flashlights
- Added to:
  - Flamer
  - Plasma Gun
  - Combat Shotgun

  - Exterminator Shotgun
  - Subductor Shotpistol and Riot Shield
  - Grenadier Gauntlet
  - Ripper Guns
  - Twin-Linked Heavy Stubbers
  - Heavy Stubbers
  - Rumbler/Kickback
- also with the changes to how slots work, they fuckin FLOAT
Small underbarrel flashlights ("Flashlight (Under)")
- Added to:
  - Subductor Shotpistol and Riot Shield
  - Quickdraw Stubrevolvers
- Half sized and sits under barrel
- doesn't actually turn on bc that's just how the original mod works
- also with the changes to how slots work, they fuckin FLOAT
Suppressors
- Added to:
  - Combat Shotgun
  - Exterminator Shotgun
  - Subductor Shotpistol and Riot Shield
  - Ripper Guns
  - ~~Heavy Stubbers~~
    - nvm this drove me insane
  - Rumbler/Kickback
    - works when reloading :D
- Variants
  - Wrapped Suppressor
    - a metal suppressor wrapped in a bandage
Slim Blades:
- Added to:
  - Arbites Shock Maul
  - Shock Maul and Supression Shield
  - Shock Maul
- Note: Blades are reversed on these new weapons
  - I'm working on the fixes for these. It'd be simple enough to brute force it, but I'm working on a more robust solution
- Using with invisible connectors may lead to weirdness at the base
  - These blades were not all designed to be used as standalones
  - This is the same as when used on the non-maul weapons. just that the connector usually covers it up (at the cost of clipping)
Invisible Connectors:
- Added to:
  - Arbites Shock Maul
  - Shock Maul and Supression Shield
  - Shock Maul
Damage Types: Slashing
- Used in slim blades
- Matches what the source weapon uses (e.g. Slim Power Sword blades use the damage type from Power Swords)
- Does not change sounds atm
Mod options to toggle randomization
- Toggling flashlights

2025-10-29

v4.2.0

Added

Suppressors and Flashlights to Revolvers
- I forgor
- Note: PBS-1 still has the stupid clipping
Localizations and groups for Suppressors
- in the months that i had the suppressors, i never really settled on a name for them
- i still havent settled :D
- but at least they're not just 1-5 now
  - double cans
  - PBS-1
  - heavy metal
Flashlights [WIP]
- None of these work LMAO
- MP5 flashlights (2)
  - goes on the sight rail
- Big Tactical Light
  - like a regular flashlight you hold in your hand, but on the gun (oooo)

Fixed

Alignments for Slim Blades
- attachment points did not use ap_body_01. it's all blade, regardless of slot name
- this still means the blades with builtin hilts (such as psword) will be too high. am working on that

Refactors/Developer Talk

Reworked helpers to be full items
- for:
  - Suppressors
  - Tactical Stocks
  - Iron Sights
  - Flashlights
- because when they aren't, there may be weirdness with the game trying to use them as something they're not (ex bullets getting hidden)
- also meant fixes might apply to them when they weren't supposed to
Reworked single kitbashes (no children) to full items
- for:
  - Slim Blades
- also helps prevent wonkiness with fixes, since it overwrites

2025-10-07

v4.1.0

Added

Flashlight
- Variants for each flashlight model per color
- Added a bunch of colors: green, red, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, pink
- Added 4 variants for size and stuff
  - narrow: what I used last time for owo_flashlight_green_01
  - narrow cool: same but lower color temperature
  - weak: wider and shorter beam, with cooler temperature
  - default: copying the default flashlight template, so just color is different
- this makes 180 flashlights :3
- good luck babe
Slim Blades
- made available on relic blade, force sword, and force greatsword
- blades from relic blade, force sword, and force greatsword
- short variants for relic/fgs
- they sit too low. fix comes later
[WIP] Iron sights
- on: autoguns
- ak irons
- shape is alright, but the sights dont work lol
[WIP] Magazines
- on: autoguns
- ak extended mag
- it just doesn't fucking work lmao

Fixed

Aligned tactical stocks for bolter
- sizd up and moved to back
- still dont try on helbores
Logic error when looping over all models
- Used break instead of continue (and lua doesn't have continue)
- So i'd lose all the models after the first one i wanted to skip
- fixing this restored from 3 psword blades to 6 psword blades (index 7), not counting mastery
  - 7 models to use, skip #4
  - break meant only 1-3 were added
  - now it's 1-3, 5-7
wonky fix interaction between merge tables and suppressors
- suppressors would get the fixes meant for merge tables???
- eg suppressor (empty base) with folded under stock
  - stock would be in default position, as if i didnt do anything to it
  - suppressor would get the rotation/scaling from it
- fixed by using the base unit version

Developer talk

Decided how to add fixes
- each weapon has its own file in the fixes folder
  - all it does is return the fixes
  - then the main file reads all those (right before copying to sibling marks) and adds them in
    - requires me to maintain the list of the weapons in the fixes folder, but idc
    - automatically detecting files int he folder is very resource intensive, and this only risks me forgetting to add something during testing
- this means the fixes given per attachment are the universal fixes
  - technically we cant do universal fixes like that
  - it has to be put under each weapon
  - but that means i'd need more effort when it comes to making custom fixes
    - cant just insert because the order they get applied in may not be consistent
    - i have the custom fixes overwrite them if the requirements match exactly
- I prefer it this way because i like having the kitbash and attachments defined in the same file
  - there's overhead from having to process and skip values, but i find the headache annoying enough when swapping between two files
  - also it's not like this is noticeable
Merged redundent functions into more generic functions
- in the main file, adding fixes and kitbashes can be done by inserting each table and merge recursive, respectively
- made them global into generic_helpers.lua to be used in create_attachments.lua
Made kitbash creation cleaner
- split into functions for merge table and full item
- then call the appropriate one within the create_an_attachment function
- now it's not directly in the main file :)
Added comments for more functions
refactored suppressor creation to copypaste less code

2025-09-29

v4.0.0

Initial release for the rebuilt version in Discord. Continuing the version count from the old plugin to keep git in order.

Laying the framework for me to readd parts

for the nerds

functions for each group of attachments (ex suppressors together)
functions to add a group of attachments to a weapon (or multiple at once)
functions to copy over attachments to another weapon
- used to propagate changes from mark to mark
- and from family to family (ex ilas --> recon)
defining the attachment functions globally in separate files
- slightly worse performance but much cleaner code
- at startup and it's only a few function calls
- i'm sure the auto mark propagation is worse than this
- esp the table search lol
function to execute a function for a range
- used to iterate through each mesh
- ex 8 power sword blades, so script runs it for 7 then the mastery one

Added

Suppressors
- Infantry/Braced/Vigilant Autoguns, Shredder Autopistol, Spearhead Boltgun, Bolt Pistol, Infantry/Helbore/Recon Lasguns
- Changed the tip of suppressor 5 to not be a colored tip
