Weapon position data for creating effects in 1st person Last updated November 10, 2023

Data was gathered using code A87YG (snippet below), at FOV 103, when heroes are idle.

Heroes that dual wield (reaper, tracer, hammond) will have the position of their right gun recorded.

Formula taken from therister's Junkenstein's Victory gamemode:

Update Every Frame(Add(Add(Add(Eye Position(Event Player), Facing Direction Of(Event Player)), Multiply(World Vector Of(Right, Event Player, Rotation), (Event Player).xoff)), Multiply(Normalize(Cross Product(Facing Direction Of(Event Player), World Vector Of(Right, Event Player, Rotation)))

where x & y are from the table below (json is provided at the end)

Note: this does not provide the correct positions in 3rd person and does not account for animations that move the weapon (in 3rd person the position is farther forward than it should be).
