And I don't mean those horrible edits of somebody else's weapon. I'm talking about originality.

I made a few, the animation on my earlier work is choppy and laggy.

I've been making them from scratch since 2007. They're actually terribly dull to work on, though. Roblox's whole "tool" system is horrendous.

Bros, this isn't really "advanced scripting topic."

I have made a simple gun with the basic features.

I didn't use the wiki on how to make raycasting guns until afterwards, and it didn't help... I had gone through about 20 different algorithms for preventing wall shooting and discerning the difference between very similar situations. I still can't figure it out.

I want to add a new mechanic to weapons that I have not seen on ROBLOX yet, and I will be working on a lot of weapon technology in the near future, such as realistic mechanized warrior combat and missile technology.

What do you mean? Can you provide a specific example of how things should have been done?

I made two. Neither with animations. Who needs animations?

The first one I couldn't get to work right for some reason. T_T

The second one was awesome.

"Who needs animations?" Almost everyone ( I think ). Sorry but for me, a standard weapon using roblox's tool object ( arm rising ) only or one without reloading animation ( if there is a reload ) isn't a well scripted weapon. Of course it could be but it's more realist with animations.

Honestly, all of the arm location changes and animations are pointless and inefficient. Sure, they add realism, but they usually deter from the actual game.

I prefer to just raise my arm and use a well scripted gun that is not going to cause me to fling across the map or get stuck in walls, or collide with various objects and barricades, preventing me from actually using the terrain, while reloading, along with tripping on stairs and ladders.

A single brick with a mesh without any fancy animations is something that I look for in a gun. If you have anything other than that, I am critical. Sure, it's an opinion, but there's no negative to having no excess, and there are many pit falls of adding those things.

I've made extremely advanced guns, which I'm still working on.

I just added gun sway, which is increased while walking.

I made a custom RAT Sword.
Was white-bladed, with a black handle.
It looked epic. Then Ice77 got perma'd.

MODS WHY.

I know why.

But yes. I have created a weapon before.

@Ice

Obvious rule : only popin is allowed to do offtopic threads/replies (yeah, I'm breaking a rule here, I'm offtopic :D)

And of course, don't keep posting stuff that has already been pointed out like you always do. Like I pointed out the last time. Ya.

And of course...
