I see your point. But this is the only way(and mod) that really fixes them for good. Besides, most of weapons that have backpack - have it for esthetical reason. Because such guns are still reloaded as regular guns and thus their ammunition is stored in them and not elsewhere.
Real backpack-fed (belt-to-backpack) weapons would have a lot more ammo, correct me - at least 1000 bullets for minigun for example (5-6 x200 standart 556 packs). This even includes gas.
On the other hand - while this mod works and was tested, it was built in a rush. Polishing every gun was not a priority. I welcome anyone to use the outlined way to produce a much higher quality models without backpacks. I am also not very good with nifscope (although I did figure out why it corrupted the models, which stopped some modders from using this nifscope way). But this mod does its thing pretty good, and model quality corresponds to original models sans their backpacks. Cheers!
Btw, could you possibly do a compatibility patch for EVE? If I remember right, some weapons keep their backpacks when using EVE (I think the gatling lazer is one of them)
The funny and tragic thing is ... technically they are connected to a weapon in the model file :) That is also reason, its nigh-impossible to remove them with scripts.
how can I not see this mod early? man how stupid am I, being sseacrcing a good mod to remove that ugly backpack of heavy guns since Fallout 4 showed me how awesome Gatling laser without that backpack. tq!!

Also, you missed the Arc Welder from Lonesome Road.
EDIT: or so I thought, can we get some WMX support?
And the only mod which finally worked for me. And I tried it all I think...
THANKS.
I really hated the backpacks.
Had they been connected to the weapon, they may have looked okay, but they just -floated- by themselves.
