Steadier reference images and animations Animation playback now keeps your weapon's real shot rhythm and adds smooth movement between shots, so delayed or uneven firing patterns no longer look frozen or jumpy. Failed, cancelled, or interrupted generation no longer leaves half-finished reference images and animations behind, and older cached media is rebuilt once, then reused. Generating reference media in the installed build no longer hangs while the app starts.Shorter gunshot sound Training and the free range now use a shorter, softer single-shot sound (85 ms instead of 140 ms), which is easier on the ears in long sessions, and sustained fire at 450/600/900/1200 RPM stays clean.Delta Force recoil guide on both surfaces When you select a Delta Force profile, the Desktop configuration card and the in-range Profile card both offer the localized recoil-value guide: the same explanation and…

Recent Updates and a Note from the DeveloperHi everyone,Over the past few days, Recoil Trainer has received a series of updates focused on controller support, Overlay Mode, the Firing Range, Steam / Workshop related issues, and general UI and usability improvements.First, I want to sincerely apologize to players who ran into issues while using the app. Recoil Trainer is developed and maintained by a solo developer, and the testing process has not been as strict or complete as it should have been.
