Notability

As for most mods, i don't think this "mod" really deserves a page yet. The notability of it and popularity has yet to even take notice. Only mention was on Kritkast but that only accounts for just a bit of the community and not a whole lot of it. Ashes (talk) 23:05, 27 August 2015 (PDT)

The word is slowly spreading. The steam group is currently at 3,162 members and views for the 2 trailers are at 141,254 & 74,145 views. So far Kritkast mentioned this and FUNKe (TF2 youtuber) has talked/played on the server(s). I did talk to 2 people from AW to allow us to use AW weapons as long as we give credit (in which I already do give credit). I also asked if someone could make an announcement about Advanced Weaponiser is back, but in a slightly different form. It just needs a couple other promotion to spread the word.

Could you link the videos please? -- Dr. Scaphandre 10:47, 18 November 2015 (PST)

These are on Karma Charger's youtube. He also wanted to do the same thing that I wanted to set up, but I was already prepared most of the weapons at that time. So he is mostly the promoter. Crafting (talk) 10:54, 18 November 2015 (PST)

Although it may have many views and members, Its hard to say its notable based on "Video views and membership". Its about community playability, # of servers etc. And if its still being worked on, I don't think its even notable as its kind of advertising a "Hey this mod is being worked on, check it out" sort of page. I would say that it be on a user subpage first and not its own page until its either fully done or gets more notability. Ashes (talk) 12:13, 18 November 2015 (PST)

True, the features that are doing working on:

• custom wearables (as in demo shields)
• better sound replacement (heavy miniguns at the moment can't be replaced, but that is fixed)
• after you equip a weapon, it tells you in chat (only you see the message)
• a very organized menu system

There is more, the to-do list is in the middle..... (the mod hasn't been updated in 1 month due to Chdata being busy)

• https://github.com/404UserNotFound/CustomWeapons2

There is also a trello.....

• https://trello.com/b/PpC0xGj7/custom-weapons-2

The servers I have planned, but once I get donating set up.....

• Server #1 USA Custom Weapon Server (30 player, with 2 reserve slots)
• Server #2 Luxembourg Custom Weapon Server (24 player)
• Server #3 USA Freak Fortress (24 player)
• Server #4 USA Stop that Tank (24 player)
• Server #5 USA MvM Server 1
• Server #6 USA MvM Server 2
• Server #7 Canada Custom Weapon Server (24 player)

But anyway, maybe after sometime I will update on the process of this project.Crafting (talk) 12:44, 18 November 2015 (PST)

I'm sorry but I'm still not seeing it. The player base for this mod is so small that it doesn't really warrant an article. We're an official wiki first and foremost. Mod content comes second, and only certain mods go through.

What I recommend for the time being is like Ashes suggested and copy all the data for the page onto a user sandbox page and update it slowly as time goes on, then if/when the mod becomes notable enough to warrant an article, then paste it all back in. As it stands, I don't see why this page should exist. -- Dr. Scaphandre 13:08, 18 November 2015 (PST)

Alright, thanks for talking with you two. Crafting (talk) 13:35, 18 November 2015 (PST)

What on Earth is this mod?

I have to agree with Ashes. I've never heard of this mod and question it's credibility. --Dr. Scaphandre (talk) 14:04, 30 September 2015 (PDT)

This mod is basically Advanced Weaponiser without the restrictions. We have original weapons along with some of the AW weapons, I did talk to 2 people from AW to allow us to use AW weapons as long as we give credit (in which I already do give credit). There are 2 trailers out for our server(s) that is linked on the main page on the steam group. The mod is still currently being worked on, it is mostly being worked on Chdata, one of the developers for VS. Saxton Hale. This mod adds "new" weapons into the game by using official attributes and custom-made attributes that are coded by SourcePawn. Here are links to community made attributes.... https://forums.alliedmods.net/showpost.php?p=2193855&postcount=254 https://forums.alliedmods.net/showpost.php?p=2193263&postcount=252 https://forums.alliedmods.net/showpost.php?p=2121002&postcount=121 https://forums.alliedmods.net/showpost.php?p=2342151&postcount=558 Crafting (talk) 09:54, 18 November 2015 (PST)
