About this mod

Make junk and components lighter, or give mysteriously weightless items some heft. Mix and match packages as you like!

Permissions and credits
Built in FO4edit.
Looking for a lighter load to lug to your locales? And why are these wasteland wonders, weightless - a wizard?!
A few packets to choose from to adjust junk/component weight as you like.
Trying to hit a balance between being heavy enough I don't just pick up everything indiscriminately, but light enough that I can bring the parts I need to a settlement... I know a workshop will scrap junk as you need the parts, but I can see why people are scrapping them manually ahead of time. (It's easier to bring 20 copper to a settlement than 20 cooking pots.)

Note that the UI, by default, only displays weight values to one decimal place, so many will appear to weigh "0.0". This is not weightless ('true' weightlessness just looks like a 0 on its own), merely a visual effect. Actual weights will vary according to an item's vanilla weight. (Even vanilla items that appear to be 0.2 are usually actually 0.25!)

Nothing here that makes all junk completely weightless; there are dozens of mods that do that already. (I linked the one I used to use at the bottom.)

If you are mixing a Junk packet with a Component optional, make sure you load the Component SECOND.



The Different Packets
2H2H - Junk Packet[File: 2H2Hjunk]
The first one. Will decrease the weight of all scrappable (and some misc) items, as well as raw components, down to 10% of vanilla weight. Includes all the barbells and weights, because LOGIC IS FOR PEOPLE THAT DON'T NEED TO BUILD GENERATORS, DAMNIT! Previously weightless items are also given a little weight (at a tenth of what 2H2Hno0 does), so you don't have to pick up a whole stack at once if you don't want to.

2H2H - Half-Weight Junk [File: 2H2HjunkHalf]
An alternative to the first with less drastic changes. Will decrease the weight of all scrappable (and some misc) items, as well as raw components, down to half of vanilla weight. Also given a little weight (at a half of what 2H2Hno0 does) to the magic weightless items.

2H2H - No Weightless [File: 2H2Hno0]
Weightless items, including Pre-War Money and Subway Tokens, now have weight. (Most are 0.1, but burnt mags are 0.5). Also makes a full Giddyup Buttercup weight 1lb more and a Buttercup head part weigh 1lb less because WHY DOES A FULL TOY WEIGH LESS THAN THE SUM OF ITS PARTS, ARLEN, WHAT ARE YOU A WIZARD


2H2H - Weightless Components Only [File: 2H2Hcmp0]
Makes raw, basic components all weightless. Use on its own or load after 2H2Hjunk. With this, you can hold all raws on your person to use at any settlement at any time. Super-handy!

2H2H - Tenth-weight Components Only [File: 2H2Hcmp0-1]
Raw, basic components are a tenth their original weight. Included in 2H2Hjunk, so only use this is you want your normal junk to remain full-weight or because you are using 2H2Hno0, or 2H2HjunkHalf. Makes it easier to bring the mats you need to an isolated settlement. Handy!

2H2H - Half-weight Components Only [File: 2H2HcmpHalf]
Raw, basic components are half vanilla weight. Included in 2H2HjunkHalf, so only use this is you want your normal junk to remain full-weight or because you are using 2H2Hno0. Makes shuffling components around a little less straining on your poor spine.

Suggested Alternatives:

[Carry Weight Modifications] - increase your weight across the board, if you want to carry a thousand guns, too.
[Weightless Junk and Misc] - nothing need weigh anything ever again! (Be warned - weightless items are always picked up as a whole stack, and you will start picking up literally everything because WHY NOT?)
