What is this mod?

In short, it replaces textures.

Once those textures are replaced:  while viewing weapons in your locker you will see an additional info-bar that displays statistics about the selected weapon.




What do the icons mean?


  • Shot speed is in "RPMs", which are the units used by the wiki.  More of a relative stat, i.e. compare with other weapons to gauge the fire rate.
  • Since there is no "clip" for heavy weapons, you'll see the maximum spare ammo instead.  The (+) is to indicate that it's base amount without upgrades.
  • I added the maximum spare ammo for snipers (in parentheses) because of how limited the ammo.
  • Shotgun damage is per pellet, with the full blast damage located within parentheses.



How to Install?

Recommended: Use A Lot Of Textures (ALOT) for ME2 installer.  Even if you don't use my mod, you should be using ALOT - you won't be disappointed. Illustrated ALOT Installation guide available here.

Before you hit the "INSTALL FOR ME2" button, just drag-and-drop the archive onto the interface, then proceed with installation. 

--  If you have already installed ALOT then you don't have to reinstall everything.  Just drag-and-drop the file onto the ALOT installer like normal and when you hit the "install" button, only the "user files" should be checked.  Proceed with the installation and the textures will be added.

Alternative:  Use Texmod/ME3 Explorer if that's your preference.  I've only ever used ALOT to install my textures, so I can't offer any further explanation.



DLC?

I've included the textures for all the DLCs that I own, which to my knowledge is all of them. 

*Even if you don't own certain DLCs, then installing some unused textures shouldn't be an issue.




How to Uninstall?

I've included the vanilla textures in the "files" section.  Install them the same way you installed the main mod.



Modern Weapon Pack - Patch

If you are using Modern Weapon Pack (which I would highly recommend if you are not) along with this mod then download the patch in the misc. section.

Installation: Install using the same method as the main mod.

**I've stopped updating this patch at v2.5. Guns added in later versions will therefore not display stats - the rest will still function. 



Disclaimer.

I believe weapon stats should have been in the base game as they were in ME1 and ME3, and this mod is my attempt to add that feature.  But... I'm not a graphic designer.  I installed GIMP and made these textures in a couple days for fun and to use in my own game.  Hopefully this will inspire someone with talent to make something of better quality.
