About this mod Author’s original text

SG-8S Slugger (from Helldivers 2)

The standard SG-8 Punisher is powerful, sure, but its buckshot rounds are only useful at close to medium range. The Ministry of Defense provides the solution - the brand new SG-8S Slugger retains all of the standard Punisher's upsides (powerful single shots and very large 16-shell capacity) with the added benefit of new 10 gauge slug rounds, which pack a devastating punch at ranges that would make the Punisher blush. Just make sure to brush up on your aim to utilize the Slugger to its fullest potential.

Features

  • SG-8S Slugger (found under Tube-Fed Shotguns in the item spawner, click the little switch on top to swap mag tubes! And it has shell holders!)
  • SCP-2 "Eagle" 1x Reflex Scope (mounts to any Picatinny rail. It's a 1x scope, not a red dot!)
  • 10 gauge SEAF Slug (a big boy slug that's actually somewhat less powerful than a standard 12 gauge slug... it still kills things good, don't worry!)

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
