If you mean the Rail Gun, Torax is working on that weapon.

I already have his mod. But he has used stock UT items and the mod is dependent on enhanced items.

...but ?
I can't see that as a problem only a benefit, with so many other mods and weapon pack relying on enhanced weapons, it is rare not to have it anyway.
All the Beyond Unreal weapons and pickups use is it, and it is in loads of mappacks and mods.
It should be difficult to avoid having it.

If there is a problem with Enhanced Items, perhaps a fix can be done, or a suggestion made to Wormbo ?
As part of my default standard UT setup, I can't imagine not using it unless it cashes with a similar mod.
From a player point of view, it gives me a much better GUI and more flexible control over the Relics and pickups, and fixes HUD bugs with Relics, and contains other fixes that UT needs.

If you care to actually look at his Enhanced Items and Relics system, you will see it is a handy framework with which you can add your items, should you feel it is lacking something.
It is much like Nali Weapons 3, in that, yes you have some toys to play with, but if you think that is all it is, you need to look deeper.
Also much like NW3 it gives server admin a handy interface for fine-tuning the options.
The Q3 relics are just some extras that mimic the originals in Quake. If they look wrong simply make them look better by importing or creating your own.

To mimic Q3, the relics will need to be made anyway, and if the look is the only thing that puts you off the mod, that is not really a big problem.

Yea the main problem will be Powerups. All those Powerups like Speed, flight, HUD, etc. Yet his Q3T is really great.

Uhhh... Sorry for misunderstanding doctor :\. I might use his Codes for Powerups, but 1st I will have to ask him whether his mod is Open Source or not. I can't take any risk.

Just a small video about my current work.

I see the blue base HOM when you rebuild the map ...that means it is right now not a weapon replacement mutator but placed into the map, right?
The weapon handling looks great but I would switch the Pump Gun with the Plasma Gun ...or will there be later the Rail Gun?
WTH!! How far can this Plasma Gun shoot? I LIKE IT!

Yup, there is no replacement mutator. I just placed the weapons in the map.

You mean the lifespan of Projectile of Plasma Gun?? The Plasma Projectile has endless lifespan. They will go on flying until they find any collisions.
