I want to thank everyone who donated and/or encouraged me so this overhaul could happen.
This mod is intended to be end-all of MK18 expansions (until I make the 2000 Year Empire). I am putting it here at the top: NO ONE ELSE'S MK18 EXPANSION WILL BE COMPATIBLE WITH THIS!
The MK18 1000 Year Empire changes how the MK18 is structured. You now have the ability to switch handguards and barrel lengths. I've also added things like a sight mount and riser system (although it is a bit finnicky). THIS MOD IS FOR THE NEWEST VERSION OF THE MK18!
I've added a lot of aftermarket and clone parts to the MK18. I've avoided putting in any crappy parts like red and skeletonized garbage you'd find on Facebook Marketplace or Gunbroker. I also replaced a bunch of parts with superior models. There are one or two stupid models (like that dumbass OMM mount and GBRS parts)
Things to Note
(For the love of Allah (SWT), please read these)
As previously stated, this is incompatible with anyone else's MK18 expansion, including my previous Armory Projects, so make sure this is the only one enabled. Fret not, for the majority of the parts included in the previous APs are in here or have an equivalent analogue. Remove any loose files you may have in the original MK18 mod as parts from those mods are overridden here.
There is no seamless scope switching. This means that for the backup sights you see in the screenshots, there is no way to switch between the two as seen in Call of Duty or Tarkov. You would have to remove the mount and backup sight to go back to using the original scope.
The M203 grenade launcher is not and WILL NEVER BE usable. It was included as a cosmetic request to someone who's donated so much to this project (love you Shadow).
The riser system is sorta buggy. It works with one-piece sights without any problems but use an Aimpoint mount and a sight and stuff will go where it doesn't belong. It tends to fix itself when you unequip the sight, equip the mount, and put the sight on it again. Play around with it. I tried my best to emulate Tarkov's riser system but it is hard to keep track of all those function calls. In any case, just use a riser on the one piece scopes (like the EOTechs). Maybe I'll find a more efficient way to do that system in the future.
A similar bug happens with the red dot mounted system on the LPVOs. If you are going to switch between scopes with the red dot on it, you'll find the front cap teleports into the receiver. To avoid this, take off the red dot and the RMR front cap, select your new scope, and then place those back on.
If you're wondering why something didn't make it in from the previous projects, it's because I either forgot or discovered it came from some glorified airsoft company like NcSTAR
There are a lot of EOTechs because the military loves EOTechs. I probably should've taken more screens with non-EOTech sights, but trust me, they're there.
I got lazy at a couple points, such as deciding which scopes get riser options. For the most part, it's just 1x and some of the higher power fixed scopes.
