This mod has been released here and on Mod DB - if you found it somewhere else, it's an outdated version uploaded without permission!
--> DESCRIPTION <--
This mod adds new weapons, skins and upgrades to the game. It tweaks a lot of other stuff too.
--> HOW TO INSTALL? <--
- Copy everything from 'Files' folder to your Saints Row IV install folder.
- TIP: Saints Row IV install folder will be wherever you installed Steam: ..\Steam\SteamApps\common\SaintsRowIV\
- You'll need to reset your key bindings in order to make the satchel charges and cruise control work.
- Go to Menu Options -> Menu Controls -> Menu Set Keys and Buttons and press F1.
- Choose 'Yes' if the game asks you are you sure.
- Now go to Menu Options -> Menu Controls -> Menu Set Keys and Buttons -> Menu General and press F1.
- Again, choose 'Yes' if the game asks you are you sure.
- Go to Menu Options -> Menu Controls -> Menu Set Keys and Buttons and press F1.
- Done! Now everything should work properly. We highly recommend to use this mod with Shitface's NPC Behaviour!
--> HOW TO UNINSTALL? <--
Just copy 'Expanded_Arsenal_Mod_Uninstaller.bat' to your Saints Row IV install folder, launch it and follow the instructions. Then verify the cache via Steam in order to restore original VPP_PC files.
--> COMPATIBILITY <--
This mod is fully compatible with:
- Sandbox+ - Things To Do In Dominatrix Edition (all shared files are the same in both mods so you can install them in any order),
- Shitface's NPC Behaviour (all shared files are the same in both mods so you can install them in any order),
- Shitface's Vehicle First Person Camera Mod (replace files from Expanded Arsenal Mod with the ones from my remake).
This add-on replaces the suppression grenades with disintegrating ones. If you want to have your superpowers all the time, just copy 'weapons.xtbl' from 'Disintegrating grenades for the aliens add-on' folder to your Saints Row IV install folder.
--> HEAVY TRUCKS ADD-ON <--
This add-on makes all big trucks crush smaller vehicles! Just like monster trucks! To have this feature in your game, copy all files from 'Heavy trucks add-on' folder to your Saints Row IV install folder.
Thanks to {JP}OchreHomo Mixer for this idea.
--> WARNING FOR PIRATES <--
