PWEM (Panda's Weapon Editor Mod)
by Paneedah
PWEM, short for Panda's Weapon Editor Mod, lets players and pack makers change the stats of Modern Warfare Cubed weapons without touching code.
What it does
Weapon values are read from a JSON file for each gun, so changing a number there changes how that weapon behaves in game. The editor covers the amount of damage a weapon deals, the rate at which it fires, the recoil it produces, the zoom level used when aiming down sights, and how strongly gravity pulls a bullet through the air, where a higher number means a steeper drop.
PWEM is open source under the Apache License 2.0 and depends on Modern Warfare Cubed, which must be installed alongside it. Files are published for Forge only, for the single version 1.12.2. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The latest file is 2.1, dated 2023-07-10, and the project was first published on 2023-07-09.

Use cases
Tuning a weapon pack
Pack makers can adjust recoil, damage and fire rate across a set of guns to match the balance they want.
Adjusting long-range shots
Raising the gravity value makes bullets drop faster, which changes how far a weapon is effective.
Who it’s for: Pack makers and server owners who run Modern Warfare Cubed on Forge 1.12.2 and want to change weapon balance through configuration files.
