Was wondering if someone can make a mod that renders a laser beam in 3rd person whenever a player aims with a weapon which uses the "sniper calibers" (338.Lapua, 308.Winchester, 30_06, .50bmg)

The beam should stop whenever it hits an entity or a block.

Beam should point at the exact spot where the player is aiming at (to ensure that it correctly translates threat)

MUST WORK WITH OCULUS SHADERS!

Additionally (adding these features ensures additional pay)
-Laser visible in first person.
-Laser only visible in 3rd person when the round is chambered (disappears during bolting the rifle).

Starting price: 5$
Price if all the additional features are met: 7$
Payment can also be sent in €, directly onto your credit card.

WARNING: If you want to make this addon, payment method should be discussed, since I'm from Ukraine.

Ko-Fi = Supported.

Regardless of render distance? Erm as I had to deal with this recently, ima tell you. Goooooood luck.

If anything is out of render distance, the client doesn't know about it

serene obsidian
#

i'll edit that part out then kekw

restive hornet
#

Rendering is client only

serene obsidian
#

mhm

#

you willing to take the job bud?

restive hornet
#

Not for that budget

serene obsidian
#

what are you looking for

#

with the price range

serene obsidian
#

the intricacies of the mod (and how it will work) can also be discussed

#

in dms, that is

restive hornet
#

My minimum is $50

serene obsidian
#

one hour of a programmer's work

#

innit?

restive hornet
#

Yes, but also im too busy until probably mid January.

serene obsidian
#

alrite then.

i've just seen people make mods for such prices so I eventually thought this price range is okay. So an hour starts from 50$, right?

on average

bleak furnace
#

my own min is $35, but I have no idea how a mod like this would work

#

rendering the laster at the correct spot is the hardest part

serene obsidian
#

i tried doing a similar thing with a model (basically a glowstick) and did indeed align (you attach it to the head axis and move it down a bit, tacz guns actually follow the head rotation)
the problem is, that being a model, i can't make it long, it's only a few blocks

bleak furnace
#

my idea would be along the lines of the guardian beam

serene obsidian
#

explain how

bleak furnace
#

Those render from the eyeheight of the attacker to the middle of the target's hitbox, but the endpoint can be whatever

#

one major limitation is render distance like mentioned before

serene obsidian
#

there is this one mod which did a laser sight for a pillager, but i can't send the screenshot here. funny thing, i haven't even checked on how it works in detail (i can't find anything within the mod's repo on github that renders it)

bleak furnace
#

That's an antispam measure, can you post a link to the mod?

serene obsidian
bleak furnace
#

I don't see anything related to lasers

serene obsidian
#

exactly, but they do, in fact, exist within the mod lmao

restive hornet
#

Amongst other things but thats what id do

serene obsidian
bleak furnace
#

you can upload a link to an external image host and post that here (not imgur, that's blocked in uk)

bleak furnace

#

as you can see it even stops when it hits a block (also stops when entities are in the way, too)

bleak furnace
#

You sure this is with no other mods?

#

although it could be built into tacz

serene obsidian
#

well, I have tacz installed, but I don't think it affects it (i don't think tacz even has laser sights like these)

#

he isn't even using a tacz gun, it's a pre-build weapon

#

the mod only has one lib listed and it's guardvillagers

bleak furnace
#

huh, I'll have to check that out if I take this on

serene obsidian
#

(twin i won't have the budget of 35$ for a little mod for a long time, so it's just you and your personal research lmao)

#

oh dude. the repo hasn't been updated. that's why there isn't anything related to this

bleak furnace
#

alright, there is a chance that someone comes along and can fit your budget, but $5 might as well be free in terms of mods

serene obsidian
#

i guess i'll take the post down then, lol. t was nice seeing yall

bleak furnace
#

you don't need to take it down, it's not a bad post

serene obsidian
#

the price man

#

i'm a musician/artist myself and i don't want to be like "pliz make fri mod for mi bicoz it's funi"

#

like i legit thought a small project like this lives within that price range

bleak furnace
#

problem is creating mods, especially something not covered by a tutorial is a high skill ceiling and most are only modding for themselves

serene obsidian
#

i actually found the laserrenderer class file

#

if you want to take a look

bleak furnace
#

no need
