Smoke and Powder is a Vintage Story mod by Catasteroid. Smoke and Powder adds black-powder ranged weapons to Vintage Story, letting you fire buckshot or solid balls.
Why this mod is worth installing
This mod suits players who want a period-style alternative to ordinary bows and a reason to prepare black powder and ammunition. It is especially useful for hunting or fighting at range.
What Smoke and Powder adds
Smoke and Powder focuses on black-powder firearms rather than adding a broad technology tree. Its weapons expand ranged combat with shots that can use either buckshot or a single ball projectile.
The ammunition choice gives the weapons different practical roles: buckshot is suited to spreading several pellets, while a ball provides a more concentrated shot. This makes powder, loading materials, and ammunition preparation part of the combat loop.
