Authors

This section is for modders who would like to create a custom scope overlay.

The process is simple. Create a vector based image such as .svg or .ai for your scope overlay. Then import your vector image into new flash file (.fla), publish the .swf to a directory that matches a valid weapon scope object modification. Thats it!

Notes

With this system a single physical (.nif) representation of a scope is paired with a single visual (.swf) representation of a scope. A unquie resource identifier for the .swf file path is derived from the omod's world model path. Your scope omod must also add the HasScope keyword to a weapon via its property modifiers. If your scope omod model is Meshes\Weapons\44\44Scope.nif then your scope overlay will be autoloaded from Interface\Weapons\44\44Scope.swf.
