Laser jammers

Have you ever wanted to learn energy weapons and watch enemies break into dust as you steal, but couldn't because they make too much noise? Well, don't be upset anymore! Laser Silencers is a simple mod that adds the silencing/suppressor effect to the gyrocompensating lens and quantum gyrocompensating lens on conventional and institutional laser weapons. This has been carefully tested to ensure that the sound of shooting a weapon does not attract more attention than the sound of firing a 10mm pistol or suppressive hunting rifle.  

Until I could find an attribute that would cause the actual sound file to play, I could not replace the sound the player is hearing with a quieter one, as is done by suppressors on conventional firearms. But it seemed to me that people would want to take advantage of this opportunity before I had fully figured it out.  

This is the first mod that I publish and not just make for myself, so reviews and/or suggestions are welcome. Even rude. I'll just smirk that someone bothered to send me a message, and quickly delete it. I especially appreciate the positive feedback, because all my value as a person depends on whether people like my fashion.

Future updates are likely to include replacing the sound effects for suppressing the fire of an energy weapon (CHECK!), creating a suppressor as a separate fashion rather than simply attached to existing fashion, and possibly affecting other energy weapons as well.

I finally figured out how to make the muffler shots sound different than normal effects and added 3 versions of my fashion. Now there's a sound where the muted lasers are really silent (the default mode), one where the effects are replaced by the sound of the Alien Blaster gun, and one where the sounds are replaced by the sound effects of the Gamma Gun. I don't have the talent to sample/compose sound or instruments to try to make a stunning user-sounding effect, but if you want to try it out, I'd love to include it as an available version on the site with appropriate tagging and cross-referencing to your user-generated content.

Make sure you only download one version, since whatever version you last downloaded, you'll get only that effect anyway.

###Updating 12/16/15###.

So, first of all, thank you very much to the chimpoforevah user for pointing out to me the glaring lack of sound replacement in the Institute's laser rifles. The guns worked fine, and I didn't even think about testing them. The problem has been resolved, and I apologize to those who have downloaded an incomplete version of the Silenced file (I think there are three of you). For some reason, the version I downloaded referred to a different audio file than my original file, so even the laser guns didn't work. This issue has been resolved and the file has been replaced. I hope I didn't upset you too much. I think you can tell me I'm new to this business.

If you have any comments or suggestions about modding and/or want to report a bug, it is best to send me a message to PM instead of (or in addition to) the message in the comments. I check the comments quite regularly, but Nexus sorts the comments by the latest changes, which means that the most recent posts are not always at the top, so it's possible that I may miss a comment or two in the future. It's better to be safe than sorry.

Also I wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone who downloaded and enjoyed my fashion. I did not expect such attention to my first fashion and always appreciate the presence of an audience.

All files should work as stated and intended. 

###Updating 12/29/15###.

A big update to version 1.3, which fixes another glitch (thanks for pointing it to user 24Cell!). Support for laser muskets is also integrated. It's a slight omission, but I never knew they could have a barrel attached to them. I guess I never used them. Anyway, I also have a version that integrates TakaruMinari's Better Weapon Mod Descriptions fashion support (because this fashion is just super). If you don't know, downloading my mod after that will still cause the silencer to work, but you won't see enhanced tooltips. If you download this mod after mine, you won't get the silencing effect. So I made a compatible version that preserves the descriptions and adds a jamming effect. Download only one version!
