THIS PLUGIN HAS GONE THROUGH A COMPLETE REWRITE (from scratch). THE REWRITE IS ON ENGINE VERSION 5.3+

Last Updated: December 29th, 2023

Current Published Version: V1.1

If you are looking for a robust, realistic and efficient ballistics system that pairs well with this plugin, I recommend checking out Terminal Ballistics

C++ Is not required to use this plugin; however, I recommend that you at least have a basic understanding of blueprints to use this framework.

What is this plugin

This plugin is meant to be a simple, modular, component based framework.

Procedurals:

The provided procedural system is the most in depth on the marketplace. It makes full use of ik bones (such as ik_hand_gun, granted you are not forced to use that bone) to allow for full freedom with firearms such as running the action of a bolt gun with your right hand and switching from right to left handed. The procedurals come with a new pose system that now allows for unlimited poses such as high port, low port, short stock, blind fire, shoulder swapping (like in the late 2023 Tarkov update), and whatever else you want you can make as they are driven entirely by curves. Also driven by curves are recoil (both firearm and controller), firearm collision and movement sway. The remainder are value and socket driven. Some socket driven procedurals include aiming, point aiming, aiming at multiple points on a single sight (think the Elcan with built in iron sights on the top of the housing) and offhand ik (for both left and right hand). Some value drive procedurals are movement lag, rotation lag, deadzone, base pose offset and third person aiming offset (both left and right handed mode).

Firearm:

With the procedurals comes a large set of firearm functionality and implemented attachments by default. The firearm component acts as an interface to the rest of the attachments along with holding the attachment manager that gives direct access to each attachment and their parent component.

Firearm Attachments:

The system comes with several components that allow you to make nearly any firearm attachments such as optics, magnified optics, lights, lasers, forward grips, muzzle devices, barrels, mounts, etc. Provided in the example are several additional features to compliment them such as a muzzle temperature system to have a tarkov like suppressor smoke/heat with shimmer (see pictures).

Infrared/Night vision:

There is a built in infrared/night vision system that allows devices such as lights and laser to only be visible when you have night vision on. The provided example content has a post process and overlay for the night vision (see pictures) that allow for a realistic look with a range of settings and material functions to assist in your own assets.

Attachment System:

The attachment system is meant to be universal, it is not just for firearms. It is intended to be used for really anything that needs addons such as a firearm with attachments and a character with clothing/kit (backpack/armor/etc.). It is setup to be fast and efficient with full support for skeletal meshes and the lead pose component.
