I wonder though... the beam only need be a rendered semi-transparent straight line with two defined points, [1] StartPoint and [2] EndPoint. Where the [1] StartPoint be defined as the weapon's flashlight. And where (to fix the USABILITY PROBLEM) the [2] EndPoint be fixed at the center of the first person camera, where bullet impact always falls.

Obviously you've managed to handle the [1] StartPoint with ease, so what remains is to figure out a way to set the [2] EndPoint ?

Oh Yeah my dude, my tracer mods made me wonder about that issue - I've noticed the bullet tracers' flight path starts a little above some of the firearms, at the barrel muzzle of others ... but always lands ~center of my first person camera.

the bullets didnt hit where the laser was

what I do know is there was some kind of trick to see how that would look like and
even tho the laser looked cool it was not usable

dang, I'll post in the workshop forum and ask around. There's gotta be some way to fix it

Big props to your 3rd person mods, Could you also fix the lack of laser sight beam on the PLAYED survivor, while in 3rd person camera? Right now it doesn't show up in 3rd person, except on the other survivor's models.

Oh I can't add that one to the requirements cause it conflicts with some mods that I posted and it adds a camera flicker
