Change scope view on battle rifle?

Post by Synergy2069 »

I'm not exactly sure what you would call it, but its the blue color on the scope on the battle rifle seen from 1st person view. I have seen it changed before in other mods but cannot seem to figure out how to change it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Look at the shader of it? Do you mean view the shader? Sorry I don't quite know what you mean by that.

Basically all I wanted to do was change the blue color of the scope to red to match my red numbers.

I figured out how to do it. The scope view lense part looks exactly the same, except it is red.

For anyone who may be interested...
You go to the [mode] Model tag, then scroll down to the first person model of the battle rifle. Then click on it and swap out the battle_rifle_lens shader to the brute_plasma_rifle\shaders\plasma_rifle_main. Now if you stop at that, you will get some weird look in your scope, yet it will be red for the most part. To fix that, just go the [shad] Shader tag and scroll down to the plasma_rifle_main for the brute plasma rifle, and click on it. Then switch to view it's loneID's. There will be 2 plasma rifle bitmaps that are of the actual plasma rifle skin. Swap those for the battle rifle skin, and that's it!

Hopefully that helps anyone who may be interested in changing the color.
